Although I watch a heck lot of romantic comedies, one of my favourite genres is mystery- be it video games or dramas. Plot twists and suspense are the things that keep you stuck to this one even though it's not the best written drama out there. The story was interesting. We have a series of events that lead up to a dramatic conclusion. The story is what kept this drama alive so I definitely give this category the highest rating. Of course, if you're here for romance, you won't be getting much even though mydramalist tagged that genre. It a refreshing drama to watch after watching too many kdrama, thats for sure haha. The acting and casting was pretty nice. I actually watched for Tsubasa Honda after watching her in Ao Haru Ride and I definitely sparked an interest in Nakayama Yuma while watching! However, I could not feel any attachment to them. I wish Hikaru got a bit of character development throughout the series. I mean what's the point of revealing his strange past, if you're not going to change anything about him. A SEASON 2 WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. For reals, there is a lot of work to do on these two leads and that somewhat open ending. (I will direct it if you are desperate Japan XD) Loved the intro and the ending theme (both by Nakayama Yuma) was my favourite. It just has that Japanese feeling that I've missed. I even felt a bit nostalgic because it kinda sounds similar to Planetarium that was in Hana Yori Dango which I watched such a long time ago and LOVED LOVED LOVED. (Sorry for getting off topic and probably not even making sense :O ) I won't be re watching this one anytime soon. It's no fun watching mystery when you already know what's gonna happen. Overall, it was a nice watch. It had an interesting story line and the chemistry between the leads was nice. A short series that you can finish in a couple days if you're anything like me (a binge watcher).
