It’s not a bad rating, but compared to other stories that we could say are problematic and honestly not the most well written with ratings about 9, it’s rated low.
technically no, but for reference, most popular BLs (regardless of their plot even) are usually a 9+ lol usually you only see a rating of less than 9 if its TRULY that average
Is 8.8 really a bad rating here? isn’t that average wt
