Well done series on a sensitive topic
If you are looking for a provocative, soft-porn series, this is not it. This series does a good job with several different sexual topics that are relevant today. While it has an overarching plotline concerning the romance thread and sexual trauma, much of it is episodic in nature. The main character is Ichito Shimotori (Kento Nakajima) who is a psychiatrist specializing in treating sexual mental health disorders. The first several episodes introduce the romantic thread but are primarily about Shimotori treating several different sexual mental health issues. The last few episodes delve into the relationship of Shimotori and Yumi Ichinose (Yuko Araki) – both in the perspective of their personal and professional lives.
The series is very well done. The sub-stories are somewhat provocative but handled in a manner that is interesting without crossing the line. The romance thread is a bit light and can be confusing at times as there is a lot to unpack yet only 7 episodes in which to do it....and much of that is absorbed by the sub-stories. But KN & YA are excellent in their roles and provide a believable performance.
Overall, a series well worth watching.
