A clumsy love hidden by miscommunication and misunderstanding portrayed by peak acting and directing

Yes, there is love.
As I read up to Chapter 5/6 of the manga, I can assure you all they both love each other. But they have their tiny miscommunication and misunderstanding. There are reasons for both Mizuki's tyrant behaviour and Yoh's upset mood. I don't want to say more because it is a spoiler but you guys can rest assure, they will figure this out themselves and Mizuki will prove that he is a good husband - Yes, husband. Not boyfriend or slave-owner.

The pilot is solid with good acting skills and chemistry from the cast. If you look carefully, Kouhei really pays attention to a portray a double-sided character: changing his voice tones, facial expressions and body language. Atsuki is cute and also have diverse expressions, we can see his frustration, doubts, suffering and even tiny panting when they do it. Kouhei and Atsuki are not playing at all - they are eating!

About directing, we can enjoy this drama as Director Ayaka from OFC , Director Shinju from Jack Frost and Director Emi are doing their best in adapting a smut manga into something watchable for the public while still keep the goodness of the orginal story. The OP and ED video are made by Director Emi and they are pretty. The OP song Traumerei is good but the OP song Nostalgia is the real MVP here because of its upbeat melody with meaningful lyrics tailored to the story.

Rewatch values is 10/10 for me because I lowkey watched it 5 times already.
