Weirdest PLOT-TWIST ever

It came out of nowhere, abruptly, almost like being hit by a train, or maybe being thrown down a bridge. That ending felt extremely rushed, although quite obviously was intricately written in the manga. Perhaps, the production had to be halted earlier than expected due to Covid. What a shame. A few more episodes to even out the pacing would have allowed the acting to appear more natural and the conflict to be better integrated.

Minami's acting was good; she really suits these types of innocent but inwardly fierce female leads. Ryusei's acting was questionable at best, or maybe that was just how the character was written to be. I really wished that the director allowed him to show a wider range of emotions during pivotal moments like the reunion scene or like most of the scenes. For now, we have to endure the occasional frowns and the occasional watery eyes...

Came for the visual, stayed for the plot! Highly recommend if you want to watch two otherwordly beautiful humans falling in love in the most unusual, yet quite cliched, yet extremely tragic ways.
