Yes! A few people have complained a little this year that Heartstopper is too nice, that things wrap up too neatly.
Maybe that's valid dramatic criticism, I don't know. I just know I love the series because of how well it portrays, or seems to portray, ordinary queer youth pursuing ordinary lives — and (mostly) NOT having a gawdawful time of it.
I haven't actually made it past episode 6 yet, because I'm treating the show this year like a box of chocolates. I know that once the box is empty, I won't be able to eat any more chocolate for quite a long time. So instead of binging like I did the first two seasons, I'm tasting. Lol!
So I thank you for not throwing any spoilers in your story!
And thanks also for pointing out how true to life so much of the storytelling is in Heartstopper.
