Not as good as the source material.

The acting is alright. It isn't the shining star to this series. I tried watching it because I liked the manga. But they tried making the live action too 'cute'. Anyway, it isn't my cup of tea, I'm not invested in it. I'm dropping the series after episode 2.

The manga is better than the live action. I would even take an anime adaptation over this. It's a cute idea, but the whole point of this series was the wholesome mixed with smut. There's a lot of wholesome, but no smut, really. I'd say the actress has to put more of herself out there in some scenes, wearing only her underwear. It makes me think she was only viewed as eye candy, personally, I felt hella uncomfortable. Maybe it was because of her personality? She's very clumsy and wants to run away from everyone because of her insecurities. She doesn't know how to keep her cool. Compared to other J-dramas that highlight those qualities of the female/male lead, I feel as if her movements in this live action are too animated. They shouldn't have make this series, that's just my opinion. It would have been better seen as an animation, not live action.
