I know where they're coming from

Everybody knows the storyline so I won't waste my time writing about it. I'll straight up talk about the lead's character. Hira and Kiyoi are type of people whom I relate too. No, I am not talking about your everyday relatable characters but which some people can relate. Hira's obsessive nature and Kiyoi's "liking attention" personality. I know it is kinda toxic and unhealthy but personally, I know where they're coming from. Ok so if talking about Hira's obsessive nature, I can see why he do that. He is an introvert and doesn't have any friends. He always slutters which is why he becomes the target of making fun of. He thinks Kiyoi is the person who saved him from this. Also he thinks, Kiyoi is beautiful. I am telling you, his stalkerish and obsessive nature is because of zero experience socially(idk how to say it in a ryt way lol). If talking about my life, i don't have any friend (i used to have frnds during highschool) or talk to no one except one person. I was obsessed with him (not in a bad way like a whole phycho lmao), because i had no one else i can talk to or show my real self or open my feelings. I had trust issues and it was hard time. Also because I had no experience how to show my love or anything, i've done really embarrassing things or you can say some of them creepy even though i didn't intended to do it. I understand why he does that. But i'm not saying it's totally good. Sometimes, there are chances this increases and you can become a actually stalker. Some of his behaviour were CREEPY and STALKERISH. Talking about Kiyoi's nature of liking attention is what I relate too. It feels good, when someone likes you. It doesn't matter if it's romantically or friendly or as a family. But when someone likes you and goves you attention, i like it. There were many boys during my highschool who said they liked me. Even though i never liked them back, i used to like the attention. But that doesn't mean i'll kick them unnecessarily like Kiyoi do *dead face*. Kiyoi was realy jerk sometimes ngl. About Kiyoi saying "gross" and "disgusting" to Hira, many people found that homophobic. But according to me, i have different point of view. I dont think he mean it in a homophobic way. I see him saying that because like offcourse if anyone will say I was beautiful with that eyes or follow me everywhere like a stalker, I would say it too. I just find his reaction of hira liking him and the way he says "disgusting"and"gross" very normal and not surprising like "omg a man likes me" "wtf" type of reactions. I can't explain properly but do you understand what am i trying to say? Ig it's just the way people see that scene. Yeah. But because if their characters personality, the chemistry really worked which really hooked me on the show. If talking about acting, I was honestly impressed. Especially the one who played Hira's role. Also the one who played Hira's friend, he was really good!! Also the song was great!!! The song which plays during episode's ending, that song is my favorite from this series. The singer's voice is great! Also, there were cute momentsin the drama. I liked Kiyoi's pov too. All of the actor's visuals were GREAT! like how can they be so beautiful arghhh T_T. So yeah, overall it was a good watch.
