This one is pure fantasy so leave your logic at the door and just enjoy it for what it is.

The visuals and production were top notch, and it's everything you would expect in a fluffy josei. A cute girl, a cool guy, attractive kisses and plenty of overused clichés. The fast paced romance means you get mostly fluff and not a lot of substance, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just don't go in expecting much more than that.

What I found most different is the confident pursuit by the male lead, who is all kinds of perfect it's too good to be true. He definitely deserved more attention than he was given, but when she did give him attention he was over the moon. This reminded me of the typical cold male type, where the girl usually fawns every time a kind comment was tossed her way. It was really interesting to see this reversed.

You won't get a lot of character development either, but I think this adds to the charm of the characters. They're true to themselves until the very end. In a way, it's a love story about two people with a clear sense of the lifestyle they want, that were lucky to have found someone that was going to fit into their life, as is. They found the perfect match in each other — a girl who gets so excited by work she forgets to date, a guy other who doesn't want dating to be the girl whole life. As a workaholic myself I kinda appreciated this!

There's few misunderstandings, they aren't swayed by any confessions and even any jealousy is short-lived and sweet. If you're looking for something meaningful, you won't find it here. But if you're just after some cute scenes and a short drama to pass the time this might be what you're looking for.
