Lol, it was indeed very fucking ridiculous, though that said, I enjoyed it way more than I should've. Plus, the music was fab in my opinion.

Haha, wow, this was surprisingly cute and funny. I liked how the relationship between the two boys developed from friendship to something more, it felt really natural and they had a lot of chemistry.

The kidnapping plot wasn't even necessary, in my opinion. It could have been a nice slice of life. And the kidnappers.. lol. How are they so weak that they got beaten by two high school boys?

And they included Kazuya's singing at the end LOL

The music...the animation...so cringey. They never even confessed their love like the description says they would xD

I like how the MC had a chance to tuck his shirt back into his super high pants before escaping on the bike. Lol. 😂

"Let them go. This is rider's love." I really couldn't handle that line it was so cringey. The whole anime was so cheesy but the cheesiness makes me love it.

This was such a waste of my fucking time. Nothing was good. Not the animation, not the story, not the characters, nothing. It was all so actively bad actually. I don't even see it as comedic. And of course had to include a shitty rape trope. Terrible terrible terrible.

I laughed so hard at that line, and yes, I well agree that the cheesiness was wonderful, but it was also a cute little piece of fluff, I rather enjoyed it.

Come on, it was only 25min and I don't agree with your "shitty rape trope" assessment, since the rape wasn't successful and it didn't do the "oh, you have raped me so now I must love you. " thing.

It’s 2019 and my time is still valuable. But when there’s nothing on screen worth enjoying story nor visuals it kinda puts things in perspective.

Also being a rape savior is also a trope. They plague the old BL genre like a disease.

Oh god this was cheesy but the bad cheesyness.
More with the last message of:
"Although it is a work of fiction, the characters appearing exist in your hearts"
Like if this statement was showing that this is the magnum opus of anime in general. I laugh so hard when I read that.

Hey, it's an OVA from the 80s; it's not gonna be too impressive. Very surface-level but sweet.

Ya know what the goofy part about this is, though? They took this 20-minute OVA that's really shallow and doesn't have much substance to it and decided to release it on video and expected people to buy it. If it were an hour long, or there were two or three of these on the same tape, I could understand, but as it stands, it seems like a waste of tape.

Also, I have to point out that this OVA has four named characters, and two are named Kudo, no relation. You couldn't give four characters different last names? Really?!?!

I thought this was an OVA (sort of promo) for its source material (manga or novel) like other OVAs of that time. I kinda wanted to read the source material to see which parts of the story were possibly left out (since it looked pretty rushed like other old OVAs) but it appears this is actually an original. 😅 Anyways, there were 5 songs so they could've made sales through that...
