Hooo boy! I had no idea what to expect when I started this anime but BF brought me on a wildly emotional rollercoaster ride and I'm still not over it. BF deals with dark themes like rape and violence in general so even though there aren't graphic rape scenes, it could be triggering for some.
I didn't know that I would get so attached to Ash Lynx but I love him and I'm actually relieved that MAPPA gave us a rather ambiguous ending, instead of following true to the manga which sadly confirmed Ash's death. I can't believe how good this anime is; it's so well developed and the characters are so multifaceted that you can't help but feel for them. I love the development of Ash and Eiji's friendship and relationship and although it's not canon that they were in a romantic relationship, you can tell that they truly loved each other; their souls were inexplicably intertwined and I started crying when Eiji's letter to Ash was revealed. I especially loved when he wrote in his letter "My soul is always with you." That hit me right in the feels! I also really love the soundtrack they used in the opening and ending credits.
