Transit Girls (2015)

I absolutely loved this drama! I liked how Sayuri slowly fell for Yui (despite there being few episodes and short ones at that), and the confessions in this show melted my heart! All the relationships are so cute and nice to watch. It’s a really feel good drama where you’re rooting for the main characters. The parents aren’t the stereotypical hyper-mad parents you see in GLs and BLs. They have their reasons and they have good intentions. I loved how the series ended, too. I also thought the acting was brilliant! You can truly feel their love! The crying scenes were also very impressive. Everything looked so natural. The pace of it was perfect for me, too. I 100% recommend this show!

I like representation, I guess

I'm always happy for LGBTQ+ representation so I completed the drama and enjoyed it for that aspect. I also liked the very strong 'love is love' message too.

The acting is good and there are some very cute scenes so I think it's worth watching for that aspect if that's up your street.

However, on the whole the whole thing was kind of... meh?

1. The whole thing felt unbearingly rushed. I understand that it's a short drama so had to be, but there was absolutely no build up, no suspense, no drama. Because it was soooooo rushed, the characters' motivations also seemed non-existent, and they are ALL kind of one dimensional (including main characters).
2. I often choose specifically to watch dramas with characters that know I'll dislike as I find it interesting. This time I disliked the characters but I think I was meant to like them. Incredibly selfish but they don't seem to understand why they're selfish.

It's representation though lmao
