Unexpectedly very bingeworthy
Started this without much pre-knowledge, except than for the little preview. I pretty much went in with nothing, but I have seen Takahashi Fumiya's acting and in my opinion he striked again. But I also got swept away by Shison Jun's acting skills and visuals. But idem for the other actors. They all delivered, especially when they had to express how delicious the food was. ^^
The story got me interested. I do like dramas with a cooking aspect so for me it was a joy to watch. Maybe it's not for everyone. I loved how they added Gaku's ability in this drama. And in my opinion a lot of lessons to learn. I recently wondered about one a lot. In this world there is a lot of competition. With us being connected worldwide at all times.. Everyone showing off their talents or jobs, it can turn both ways for people who thought they were talented. Or they get the strength to improve or they will think they aren't more special than they thought. They will lose their purpose in life. Which is what happened with Gaku. It was beautifully expressed. Luckily Gaku meets Kai who gives him a new goal he could aim to and use his talent for another purpose. It's one lesson I picked up from this drama. But there are way more to experience. But no need to spoil the whole drama here hehe ..
Also don't know if the math Gaku used though is really trustworthy. Sometimes it seemed a bit too exaggerated. Nevertheless it was a nice story concept.
About the music? Well, Re方程式 by 10-FEET is just a pearl. I can't stop listening to it. I could listen to this song on repeat, no joke. Do check it out and I bet you'll drop it in your favourites playlist.
************** Might be a spoiler, as in do you want to know if there was a lgbtq-factor? See below.

*** I mean there was really something in my eyes, but it was more brotherly. But the ending ... I liked the ending. ***
*************BIG SPOILER ENDING ***
The one thing that I found a bit weird and is actually also one of the reasons why I kept being intrigued to watch this show.. Gaku's personality changed totally. I couldn't believe what would have caused this and I can find myself in the reason, but not entirely. I can accept that he could lose himself but turning in someone so rude because of him wanting to be a divine creature, a leader that accepts no help and can't explain things more clearly to his staff? Also I don't get how Kai's sickness could really be okay for him to cook. At the end he kinda almost fainted. How can he then be cooking with Gaku? Although it did seem like a small restaurant. But still.. Nevertheless I do liked that ending obviously. ************************
