Contrary to its looks, the drama treats it's female characters as plot points

There's literally no trigger or age warning when an episode literally flashes into a traumatic and explicit scene and snaps out of it as if nothing happened, the female character in the said scene is literally treated like a plot point that's supposed to be the cause of the male character's mediocre trauma and female trauma is conveniently erased to drive a hollow narrative to give the male lead 'depth'.

Dropping this drama after 4 episodes and I wish I hadn't begun it in the first place because now I'm traumatized too.
Jeez.

Awful

I'm sorry, I just can't take a drama where everybody is smiling or laughing all the time, and the jokes aren't even funny. Who was this drama made for? People suffering from the same problem as the male lead'? Maybe it's eventually explained, but I shall not sit around waiting. Life is just too short.

Recognizing Emi Wakui in the cast was a shock. She was big in the 1990's. I have watched both "imoto yo" (1994) and "Virgin Road" (1997) – from beginning to end. (No, I don't want to brag, but I had to get to the 500-character limit somehow.)

¡Más dramas así por favor!

Cuando veo un drama de esos que dicen ser realistas, al final resulta que: la historia puede llega a ser muy exagerada en cuanto a giros dramáticos, cómicos, etc. O por el otro lado, la historia es realista pero la personalidad de "x" o "y" personaje es muy exagerada, ¿cuándo te encuentras a una persona así en la calle?

Pero Nee-chan no Koibito es yo creo, la primera historia que veo que me ENCANTA por lo realista que es, es una historia en la que TODO LO QUE SUCEDE puede pasarte a ti o a mí, y lo mismo con los personajes, son muy humanos, que bien pueden ser nuestros amigos, familia, etc. No hay exageraciones por ningún lado y cada capítulo es demasiado disfrutable y fácil de llevar. Supongo que eso también es en parte a que es una historia original, es decir, nada de que es "basado en manga/novelas" como en la mayoría de las veces.

¿Vale la pena? Totalmente.

Me encantó, es ese drama 'soft' que necesitaba el 2020.

Y es una pena que sea un drama un tanto infravalorado, pero les aseguro que cuando lo vean no se arrepentirán.

Harus banget di tonton sihhhh

Bagus banget weh. Ceritanya simple, ga lebay/over, malah gemezzinn. Peran ortunya juga relate banget sama di dunia nyata. Ceritanya ga semua ditutup adegan romance yang over drama. Dan satu lagi, disini gada drama cinta segitiga yang memuakan. Jadi emosi dan pikiran kalian bisa tentram

Meskipun drama ini di produksi pas awal corona lagi lumayan masih tinggi tingginya ya, tapi ga di rush alur ceritanya. Awalnya agak terkecoh sama title-nya, dikirain bakal nyeritain tentang orang yang udah jadi pasangan dengan segala problemnya wkwk
