Much more than just a typical body swap story.

Now that was an unexpected nice surprise. I approached the series without expectations, even rather skeptical since I'm not a big fan of the body swap plot. But what I experienced was a touching emotional coming of age story mixed with LGBT themes. I loved the melancholic mood perfectly supported by the soundtrack. But I also fell in love with the talented main cast, which had the great advantage that all 4 of them could play believable teenagers (probably because they really are teenagers ;)).
Towards the end, the last episodes unfortunately showed a few lengths for me, for that the last minutes seemed very rushed. Also, I would have liked to see more interaction from Yashiro and Kenta and their beginning relationship.
But all in all a beautiful little story about growing up and the Struggle to find his place in the world.
