Underrated and sad show :(
The show showcases the different perspectives and struggles faced by the main characters and it evokes really strong feelings throughout the show. Some aspects of the actions taken by Aoi could have been approached more appropriately. But, the dynamic of Hiroto, Michito and Lion/Shuuto was lovely throughout the series. Ep 10 was so sad 😭 . Overall, the show is a must watch for this year!Was this review helpful to you?
Family and Personal Growth
Overall, this was a great series. The script was heartwarming and inspirational, but had some weak aspects to it. There were a few underdeveloped sections to the story, but this was only a minor thing for me. The main annoying sections for me involved the character Kaede because she was very unlikable in the first half of the series. However, this character changes by the 7th episode. I was tempted to drop this due to this character but continued because I was very invested in the mystery and family dynamics. This had a great cast which did an incredible job with their characters. This also had beautiful cinematograph and excellent editing.Random Note:
The brief opening credits were awesome.
The main underline theme is the importance of communication. However, there were so many other little lessons incorporated into this series.
The established family bond between the two brothers and the bonding development between the other characters was great.
