This is such a story of contrasts that when you watch, it will no doubt make your head spin. It is not a BL yet has such a deep undertone of attraction between two male figures that you cannot miss its elucidation. It also is a story of ornamented family ties that at the same time their underlying behaviors upgrade the definition of dysfunctional family – they go from a ‘loving’ unit to sociopaths capable of committing unspeakable evil acts as well as treat each other with contempt. We see a ‘bad’ person accomplish acts of kindness yet be interpreted as evil actions. At the same time, ‘good’ people executing exploits of atrocities and interpreting them as justifiable acts. The whole series has example after example of oxymoronic tableaux. In the end, however, despite the conflicting messages, its arc is quite clear.
