His - Koisuru Tsumori Nante Nakatta (2019)

Finished the series 'His' and I liked it. There should be a Season 2. It's endearing and is not set at a frantic pace. It's exceptionally cute and innocent so you can watch without fear of seeing something you may not be ready to see if you're under 18. This is a Japanese bL drama and fits quite nicely into the not-too-crazy category. You're allowed to breathe watching this drama. By the way, the end of episode 2 was very precious so watch until the very end. I like how they didn't use music at first to draw your attention and then slowly added in the music to complete the scene. Attention to little details like that makes it interesting.

This is so cute. I can't wait for the next episode.

I don't know how I stumbled upon this, but it showed up on my YT recommendations (my history is turned off, so I don't know how). It is such a cute story.

Shun - so shy, so cute, so quiet. But his face says it all. I don't know if everyone else has been feeling the same.

Nagisa - this one is harder to read at first, but there's this softness to him when he's with Shun alone.

Chika - This girl. OMG. Obsession much? She literally stalked Shun when Nagisa asked him to meet up. And then invited herself after Nagisa broke things off with his ex. I get her. But at the same time, you can't force someone to like you. I feel bad for her because Nagisa totally used her, and that was so not cool of him. -- ETA -- I totally take this back. She is so cool. Ep 5 makes her totally bad ass.

Ayo - This girl is so cute. I feel so bad for her, but at the same time I feel like she is the most relatable character in this show. The one who wants to be better - the one who finds herself too plain and too boring. I love this girl. And I love how Shun is with her in 2-4. From telling her she is far from plain and has character, to telling her that she is better than him because she is taking action to be more like the person she wants to be. I love how he builds up her confidence. And I totally get why she falls for him. -- ETA -- I just watched Ep 5. And this episode just cemented the fact that I love her. I absolutely love this girl. She is me. Like 3000%. This is totally what I would have done, because I have in the past. When I love someone I just want them to be happy even if it means the person they are happy with is not me. Why are there not more characters like her.

Chika's Parents - How cute are they - from how in love with each other they are. To how open they are about sex and sex education. I totally dig them and their vibe. SO COOL.

Shun's dad - no comment. I guess if he hadn't left none of this would have happened.

If you know that this is the prequel to the movie, you know that between the mini series and the movie there isn't a happy ending even if they both might individually have happy endings. I haven't seen the movie so I cannot say - but it seems like it's a heart-wrencher. I really hope someone subs and uploads it some day - It looks soooo good. And the guy who plays Shun in that is so good looking.
