The bar is raised

This BL is really amazing. I'm not good at writing reviews so I'm just going to share my thoughts and feelings. All I want is for people to give this show a chance because it's just that good. I really hope directors and studios can learn from this show. It's such a simple and yet very unique and different show.

+ Great cast of interesting characters with colorful personalities
+ 10/10 chemistry between main leads/actors, you really feel Kurosowa's love for Adachi through his actions, his eyes, his facial expressions and ofcourse his thoughts
+ I just loved the acting in this. Kurosawa (Machida Keita) has great facial expressions, if he's hurt you want to cry for and with him, if he's happy you're happy
+ Akaso Eiji as Adachi is a great actor and really brings the akward Adachi's character to life. Sometimes, he's just thinking to himself and we can hear his thoughts in those moments, I kust love the way he acts with his facial expressions, just like Machida Keita he has great expressions while acting
+ Wholesome story, characters and relations (friendships and romantic)
+ High quality production (camera-work, directing, writing)
+ Funny, cute and romantic
+ You WILL get emotionally attached to the main characters and want to watch more of them
+ Great OST, very fitting and really adds something to the scenes
+ Not dramatic or overdramatic because it's a light and cute story
+ Entertainment value 10000/10 you will want to rewatch each episode 3-8 times (I'm not kidding, I read so many comments here saying it's their 5th or 6th rewatch per episode)
+ Healthy relationship
+ I know I said it's a simple story, but the show and characters do have a lot of depth. There are struggles they deal with and must overcome. It's really handled well!

Since I want to give an honest review I wil also add what I didn't like (despite the following points please keep in mind im still rating this a 10/10 so please don't be discouraged because the strong points of this show is all written above and it's really a must watch!)

- Kiss or any sexy time between the main couple is left to our imagination (while the side couple kisses a few times)
- Side couple, altough very funny and a nice contrast to the main couple, didn't really leave an impression on me like the main couple.
- I personally liked the side characters (they didn't have a romantic interests) more than the side couple
- Last episode, despite the rememberable moments, was a little weak because it felt rushed and the conflict was settled so quickly (on the other hand I'm happy the conflict was solved fast but still)
