This is a humourous series that pokes gentle fun of the BL genre. It's about a straight guy in college who realizes he's in a school that is trapped in a BL setting, which he tries to resist. Near the end of the series we find out that a student there has the ability to control the their lives and manipulates them into a BL drama, but that storyline was only revealed near the end and we never find out the how or why of that. Overall it was a fun, enjoyable series.
