this was cute and funny! i liked the uniqueness and ridiculousness of the plot.

however, the main lead (Fukuhara) was making it unbearable. the over the top acting and internal monologs every 5 seconds was really getting on my nerves. his mega panic every time some form of intimacy was mentioned even when they’re officially dating didn’t help either :3

loved the other main lead, though. it’s a shame that his character wasn’t explored as much.

I think I understand what you mean. I’m not an expert, but from my limited knowledge of Japanese, I’d say it’s something you’d hear when someone is angry or annoyed.

this was so beautiful! idk why it has such a low rating:(

yes, the characters are flawed. and I’m not a fan of the lying and manipulation. but the acting, cinematography and music really touched my heart. it was a lovely journey seeing their beautiful moments from the past, and seeing Ritsu finally remember the love he had always felt for Fumiya.

overall, a beautifully made series that deserves a higher rating imho :(

I think it was a decent watch! nothing groundbreaking, but something cute and fluffy to pass the time. MUCH better than all the horrible KBLs lately😭

This was cute! I was skeptical about watching this because of how tacky the poster looks. But the production quality turned out so much better than I expected!

As a big kpop fan, it was very relatable for me to see Aejoon fanboying over his favorite idol. Knowing which picture belongs to which era, losing your sht over rare PCs, going through the ticketing war, getting comforted through their songs, etc are stuff we all kpop fans can relate to so much!

The height difference between the two leads was so cute lol. Kim Kang Min as Siyeol was amazing. I’d love to see him more in mainstream dramas! And it was great to see Kevin in a drama ^_^ i hope OMEGA X’s upcoming tour goes well💕

Overall it was a good watch to pass time^_^

I can recommend a bunch of Japanese BLs if you’re interested and still looking for recommendations ^_^

Tomita Yuki (Shizuma) reminds me of Youngjae from TWS💙 he’s so handsome ^_^

and Naoya (Minato) is soo pretty🥹 his JPOP group MAZZEL is pretty good too💕 I’ve become a fan of both of them ^_^

this was so sweet!

I was a bit skeptical about watching this after seeing the not so positive reviews, but I’m glad that I decided to give it a watch. I loved it! the plot summary makes it seem some like it’s gonna be some sort of toxic relationship, but in reality the story was anything but toxic.

all the characters were just so wholesome and endearing. Shizuma was the greenest flag ever 🥹 Minato had his flaws, but was loveable regardless. the supportive brothers and the mom were the sweetest. love how supportive all the friends were too. loved both the main leads ^_^ i see some people found the chemistry lacking. I personally thought the chemistry was amazing!

overall, a very feel good series that warmed my heart💕 definitely deserves a higher rating imho🥹

I’ve been looking for this for so long! Thank you so much 🥹🫶

just saw him in Therapy Game and fell in love with him 🥹
he reminds me of Youngjae from TWS!

same! seems like she wants to date him, but for whatever reason he doesn't think they can be together even if the feelings are mutual

hehehe ok I’ll be detailed🤭

ep8 was full of sweet moments! they are together now🥹 chan gave her the pen he just remade for her, saying that he found it among his things instead of revealing he had it remade. everything went smoothly throughout the episode, but then haran received a call from the restaurant saying they found her lost pen. now haran wants an explanation from chan.

ep9 previews - it doesn’t look like whatever explanation was given caused any rifts in their relationship. chan will meet sujin in the hospital and ask about what happened in the past. he’s still feeling guilty about not revealing anything to haran. no indication of a break up yet.

i feel like we might get the revelation/fight/misunderstanding in the 10th episode:(

Sorry if it was way too much details😂😂

are you asking for spoilers? if so, how detailed do you want them to be?

slow but steady, i would say. it started off as her seeing him as just a coworker, and is moving to slowly developing/realizing feelings. the characters do get 5-10 mins of screentime every episode I’d say

hi! the links don’t seem to be working anymore:( do you still have the English translations of the books? If so, would you mind inboxing it to me?🥹 tysm!

PS. love your username lmao

did you ever end up reading the book? if so, do you know if there’s anywhere i can read it for free?

This was so beautiful, I absolutely loved it! Deserves a higher rating, imho:(

I don’t usually enjoy dramas that involve infidelity, but this is probably the first time I actually rooted for that. As flawed as the MCs were, they were also very human. It was a very realistic story. Loved the cinematography and acting, especially of the actor playing Hagirawa. His acting really touched my heart!

I wish there was one more episode:( i hope they release an epilogue or after story at some point🥹

Thank you! I would love to do that🥰

this was so cute and funny at the same time! The actor playing Adachi’s role reminded me of ENHYPEN Jake the whole time 😂 also the actor playing Rokkaku looks a bit like Keiju from KickFlip!

ps. I really disliked the side couple and had to skip most of the scenes they appeared in 🥲 idk why they chose actors where Tsuge looked like he’s in his 40s and Minota looked like he’s still a minor, when the actual age gap definitely less than 10 years. Wasn’t a fan of the actor playing Tsuge’s character either. The over the top and overly dramatic acting was really getting on my nerves 🥲

perfect way to end the series 🥹
