Even Japan has bad, shallow shows about "high schoolers"

The cast is an eye candy. Kumi is pretty, Kanna even more, and the same can be said about the boys. Hyo is handsome, Tatsuki even more, only poor Chihaya is ugly.
Else, this is really bland and absolutely incomparable to any of the shows listed here in "Recommendations". Perhaps except 'Hana ni Keda Mono Season 2'.
Might be the combination of weird "acting", unfitting music and too short a runtime, but you don't get to really tune into any of the "lovestories" presented in this one... What's more, you don't really get to find out what's the story supposed to be about, even after you watched it. It's pretty unclear, the characters unfathomable. If this is an adaptation of a manga, it must be either poor adaptation or poor manga, possibly both.
Can one enjoy this one at least in a shallow way? The two mains have such a ridiculous looking onscreen kisses. 1st one would be exciting if it actually happened. It's delayed and happens when it's dark, in weird angle. The height gap makes it even more awkward. Another time, when the guy wants to plant an exciting surprise kiss, it's like he needs to do a super quick limbo dance move first, LOL. She looks like a startled fish. Goodness me.
Last episode kiss looks pitiful and it's preceded by a shot of Hyo looking like he's going to fall on the ground asleep, lol. After it, the camera offers a detail of the girl's clenched hand.
The whole final has 25 minutes, meaning it has about 2 minutes on each element presented in there, the main couple's relationships problems also get solved in 2 minutes.
Weird to see Japan also has shallow & bad shows about "high schoolers"... LOL.
