Yes its copying but lets be real here whats the chances of receiving an actual live-action adaptation anytime soon with current media climate? So I enjoy this little show for now.
I personally like cooking/food shows so it was a really nice experience for me. I found it interesting how they showed how LGBT+ people in Japan deal with homophobia in their own ways. Its not going to be in ways all people can relate to but I do think they represent difficult situations encountered by LGBT in Japan in a fairly good way.
The show is far from perfect but it showed an honest portrayal of how some LGBT+ people in Japan go through life. Of course it doesn't represent all (Japanese) LGBT+ people but that's cause humans are unique and deal with situations in their own ways. It is lacking in intimacy but it does address some important topics.
But I get that you were angered by that one episode about the parents and yes it does feel unfair but I think the show is intending on showing how that situation is wrong. That it is unfortunate that they can't be together because of the parents. It is weakness of the boyfriend to not stand up against his parents more but it does fit his character that tends to not be as open. So it wasn't an illogical episode to me personally.
The reason the stylist is fine with his boyfriend going off to his parents ect.. Is because he himself has lost contact with his parents due to his sexual preference. So he wants his boyfriend to have the family life he could never have. It may be a selfish illusion from the both of them in their own ways but its born out of hope for something positive to happen. I didn't think that was so odd.
Mayby its about bromance (since main dudes crush is out) but I think they will at least make the new dude a serious love interest. Curious to see how they'll handle all that in the show.
