Tsundere Love with a Capital T!

This ridiculous premise really delivered!

It was an entertaining double Tsundere "Nuh-uh, I don't like you/Your face annoys me," which really translated to "Dammit, I hate to admit it, but I need you in my life!"

I loved how childishly competitive both of the MLs were and how they turned everything in their lives into a "face-off" since they first met. From grades and tests, promotions and project proposals, to arm-wrestling, drinking, and even feelings.

It was easy to see through their thinly veiled, heated rivalry, though, to their mutual desire to find an excuse to keep interacting.

And, dammit, if it wasn't fun to watch them struggle to really talk to each other!

Was the sound mixing off at times, and were some shots awkward? Yes. But was the chemistry superb enough to distract me from these issues? Also, yes.

Was a certain side character necessary? Probably not. But was he a silly sledgehammer in the leads' relationship, and did I giggle seeing his stupid face? You bet I did!

All in all, it's not ahead of the pack when it comes to J-BLs. But it is a fun watch!
