This can't work

When I read the synopsis, I expected a very dark series, similar to Influence or even the more disturbing Kenja no ai. It is a pity that this series is just not working. The plot has a lot of potential, but the time is not enough for the plot to proceed in a way that feels natural. There are some scenes that just don't make any sense. Within two episodes and with just a mention that more than a few days have passed, the FL fell in love with the main lead and apparently is heartbroken, after what happened. And then there was that scene with her police officer friend that made me roll my eyes by how ridiculous it was. The only thing I enjoy so far is the male lead. I like the emotions that he evokes with his eyes. I truly hope that this will get better, because so far it reminds me my experience with Kyoufu Shinbun.
