My Type (2021)

Old School BL cuteness

This is a charming indie series filmed on phones with companion quality issues but I forgave it because it was so very old school BL. Taiwan leaned all the way into the ultimate puppy/cat meets jock/nerd pairing. It’s adorable because the feel of it is so nostalgic. Like if "Mr X and I" got courage, cuteness, and no censorship. This has a kinda old fashioned aura, like early BL out of mainland China used to be, but with no damaging or problematic tropes at all. What a bit of unexpectedly charming fluff. Thank you, as always, Taiwan. RECOMMENDED but it is VERY short.

Very Short But Cute

My Type is short and sweet.

~~~~~ STORY ~~~~~

The whole story revolves around Lin Yang trying to figure out his feelings for Gao Yan Zhi. It's very straight and By-the Numbers. No real twists and turns. It's great for a short watch.

Lin Yang x Gao Yan Zhi

Lin Yang is like a puppy following around his new favorite human trying to be adopted out. Gao Yan Zhi is a little more hard to read. He has girls constantly around him, but doesn't seem to care. Because it's a short watch I'm trying not to read too much into it, but he comes around. They have a few cute moments, but nothing too fancy. I honestly wish there was more cute moments so I can confidently say they are a cute couple, but I can't.

~~~~~ PRODUCTION ~~~~~

The quality is pretty bad. It looks like it was shot on a phone since it has a vertical angle (Unless it's the version I watched on youtube.) Either way, the production quality wasn't amazing.

~~~~~ OVERALL ~~~~~

My Type is a short BL to watch when you have only a few minutes, but you want to watch a BL. It's nothing fancy, but it's cute.
