Potato BL

My Thoughts on Potato BL

Alright, let's talk about "Potato BL." I stumbled upon this little gem (or perhaps, depending on your perspective, a slightly moldy potato) and knew I had to dive in. The title alone is enough to pique anyone's curiosity, right? I went in expecting… well, I honestly didn't know what to expect, but what I found was definitely unique.

First Impressions

My initial reaction was a mix of amusement and bewilderment. The premise is bonkers: a love story between two potatoes, May Queen and Genpei Potato. I mean, who comes up with this stuff? I was immediately hooked by the sheer audacity of it all. It's the kind of story that makes you question your life choices while simultaneously being unable to look away.

What Works Well

The humor is definitely a strong point. "Potato BL" leans heavily into its absurdity, creating a parody that's both hilarious and surprisingly engaging. The writing, even with the…unconventional subject matter, manages to create distinct personalities for these potatoes. I found myself actually rooting for May Queen and Genpei Potato! The author's commitment to the bit is admirable, and that's part of what makes it work. If they hadn't gone all-in, it would have fallen flat.

Areas of Concern

Honestly, the scene I mentioned above is my main concern. It's a risky move that might alienate some readers. While the story is primarily comedic, that particular element veers into territory that some might find distasteful or even triggering. It's a fine line to walk, and whether it succeeds is really up to individual taste.

Final Verdict

"Potato BL" is a wild ride. It's bizarre, hilarious, and occasionally disturbing. It's not for everyone, but if you're looking for something completely out of the ordinary and aren't easily offended, then I recommend giving it a shot. Just be prepared to question everything you thought you knew about love, potatoes, and the meaning of life. I'm still not sure if I enjoyed it or if it traumatized me, but I definitely won't forget it anytime soon.
