A cute and light-hearted drama
I started watching this drama because of the OST sung by Sekai no Owari, and I fell in love with Haru all over again.I found this drama most suitable to watch without any expectations, just enjoying it. Aside from that, I appreciate the message conveyed by this drama. The use of the terms "husband" and "wife" in the drama is intentionally stereotypical, but I really like how the "wife" tries her best at work and the "husband" puts effort into learning household chores, even though she's not very skilled at it.
Regarding the acting, I understand that dramas based on manga adaptations have their own distinctive style, but I like how the actors portrayed each character in this drama.
This drama is not without flaws, though. Some characters felt a bit annoying when they first appeared, but I still enjoyed the drama. And yes, Akamine is the best girl. Where else can you see a ML's female friend competing with the ML to win the heart of the FL? I also liked Koga.

It's a light and enjoyable watch
Kana, who is stressed because of clueless Masa, is my favorite.Stories like this may not be anything new, but I feel like I could enjoy this drama just fine. The comedic acting from some of the characters also makes the drama entertaining.
I personally like Sawa's character, not because she's tsundere, but because sometimes I struggle to express myself too.
I was slightly bothered when Kana said she wanted to marry Masa. However, I understand that a daughter's first love is her father (as long as the father isn't trash). Masa is a likable character.
In other words, watch this drama only if you're looking for something light and entertaining. Don't overthink it, just enjoy it.

This show gave me all the feels. It's like a ray of hope shining on dreams and the reality that comes with them. I learned a lot about athletes, especially that impressive tennis player.
There were some moments that made me facepalm because of the MC's naivety, but he's still a likable dude. Go Ayano totally nailed the role. Oh, and can we talk about the MC's wife? She's a rock, sticking by his side no matter what. Total relationship goals right there.

Rollercoaster drama
When I started binging this drama, I never thought I'd finish it in just one night. I went in blind, without even checking the synopsis. At first, I was like, "Is this gonna be all about the main character's daily life?" But man, was I pleasantly surprised! Despite all the chit-chat, I never got bored for a second. I was totally hooked on every single interaction, especially their awesome friendship.But let me tell you, this drama was so much more than I bargained for. I connected with the main character on such a deep level. It was super relatable.
I get that not everyone's into slice-of-life stuff, but seriously, I gotta recommend this one to everyone. Just go watch it, trust me! At least watch 1 full episode before you decide to drop this drama.
I'm glad I watched this drama marathon because I don't have to wait anymore, on the other hand , I wish I had discovered it sooner.

Let's renovate our lives!
I started watching this drama because of Haru and the OST sung by Yorushika. I never skipped the ending song, and I absolutely loved the scene where they both watched the sunset and the FL said, "A Yuuhi" - it matched the song perfectly. In the ending part, I also enjoyed seeing the renovation results for the clients according to their dreams.Coincidentally, I watched this drama when I wanted to renovate my new house. I gained a lot of inspiration from it. It made me reconsider what I really wanted to do with it.
Once again, Japan has created a great drama centered around a profession.
On the other hand, both main characters are likable. I burst into laughter at the ML's signature move when he apologizes.

Miracle
If I had to choose the right words to describe this drama, I think "unique" and "hidden gem" would be the most appropriate. Perhaps "dork" is also a fitting word. I was so absorbed in the story of this drama that I couldn't think of anything else. The interaction between the two main characters was captivating. It may not be what you expect, but I enjoyed their one-sided debates because they didn't understand each other. The dialogues in this drama often felt piercing to the heart.If you're looking for a suspenseful or similar intense drama, I don't think this drama is for you. However, if you're looking for a drama that might inspire us to enjoy our lives more, I think this drama is the perfect choice. Japanese dramas are really good at creating slice-of-life stories that feel close to the heart.

Perfect
Usually, I'm not a big fan of characters who deliberately act cute. However, unexpectedly, I wasn't bothered at all by the ML's behavior. They found an actor who was perfectly suited for the ML and FL roles. The FL is actually my favorite character in this drama. Everything was perfect, even the unexpected ending.Everything was perfect, but being the greedy person that I am, I wished this drama was longer because I enjoyed it so much. I had a serious case of post-drama syndrome after watching this. Even months after finishing the drama, I unconsciously kept searching for a drama that could give me the same impression, but I never found one :(

A must watch
As an introvert who highly values privacy and personal space, I could relate so much to the main character in this drama. It's the main reason why I love watching this show. I agree with most of ML's perspectives, even though I feel that some of his actions can be a bit rude, especially towards his father. However, I understand his reasons behind it. By the end of the drama, I couldn't help but feel exhausted at the thought of having someone like his father in my life.Nevertheless, I absolutely adore the dynamics between all the characters in this show. The unexpected interactions between ML and FL are particularly intriguing.
Overall, this drama is one that makes me wish I could erase my memory just to experience the joy of watching it all over again.
p.s I experienced a significant post-drama syndrome after watching this show. It had such a profound impact on me that I've been constantly searching for other dramas with a similar theme, even after months and up until now.
