TLDR

Ahh, young love, the illusion of thrill that you never wanted in the first place...

What it's about

A strict high school enforces a “no romance” rule—a rule that students work around, and others gravely take advantage of.

The take

Chastity High is a lovely concept to begin with, from its basic premise to its episode titles being so unapologetically saccharine. Once you do see an episode and get a feel for characters that are childlike/childish in presentation mixing it up in these adult scenes, it can be tonally confusing who the show’s audience is. Those two extremes aside, the show does present a good mix of money drama and teen drama on the journey back to the flash forward prologue, and overall feels like a light, easy watch with enough storylines to potentially keep you hooked for multiple episodes.

What stands out

“You're ignoring your students' human rights!"
