I have not seen any of the other remakes or the original, therefore they will not be part of this review.
Overall
I believe that this drama is worth a watch. If someone likes romance I recommend giving this a try.
Story
The story might not have been original but it was very entertaining. The biggest problem it had was the fact that the storyline was progressed by the main characters not understanding the full situation and act from partial knowledge. Does it need a Season 2? Well, I want one. The story left thread lines out for sideline stories to be connected by a second season. However, I also am okay if the story was to end like this. The main storyline has left enough closure to leave the character at this point of the story even with the main problem not fully resolved. You can see that both leads have a different prospect of life and they will lead their life on a different path.
Characters/Acting/Cast
Miori Takimoto did a really good portrait of Aya. You can just tell that everyone is taking advantage of the way she is at the beginning and Miori conveyed the perfect body language and tone for her. Aya is the type of character that makes you hurt when they take advantage of her and you just which that someone would help her out.
Takumi Kizu was also a really good actor and was a great Kei. In the beginning, you can see that he has almost a playboy vibe to him but you find out soon that he actually is a very nice guy and is very loyal to his GF. They there are misunderstanding and he becomes a bit of a bad person but by the end, he has learned from his mistakes and you can see he is a better person.
Anna. Ren Ishikawa is a good actress but I really disliked Anna. The way that she was towards Kei and her actions seemed like she was just a person that was used to having things her way.
It is my first time seeing Yuki Tokito act but for some reason, I didn't like it. Hayato was okay but to me, it seemed he always talked very slow and it even felt like those characters from clip teaching how to learn a language. Maybe that was just me. IDK
Music
The music was okay. I liked it enough not to skip it too often but I recently heard better. "My Love" is just good, not great.
