Not for everyone, but it is cute.

At first, the age gap made me worry. However, I found myself smiling after a few episodes because of how cute Shin is. I know Minato is kind of irritating sometimes, but I understand him. Perhaps, he is asexual(?). I think it would be interesting if he turned out to be asexual since he often panics and becomes stressed out every time Shin makes a move. This show is not for all, but I really like it. It became my comfort show because of its ambiance and I just love the background music. If you don't like aggressive young characters pursuing older men, then this is not for you.

Kiyoi's character development

Honestly, this is so much better than the previous season. We get to know more about Kiyoi and become more annoyed with Hira (lol). I can understand Kiyoi's POV with how Hira acts. It can be really annoying and frustrating to tell him all over again that Kiyoi is not a god that he should worship. Honestly, If I were Kiyoi, I might have dumped Hira if he continued to act like I was a certain god from above. There's nothing wrong with showing your love for someone, but sometimes, it is kind of frustrating to see that someone treats you as a perfect human being. People make mistakes. We all have imperfections. Overall, I really enjoyed this sequel. I haven't watched the movie yet but I am looking forward to their character development <3

Pure and Innocent, however I kind of wished for something more.

Well, I really love the ambiance of the film. I mean, I've always liked how Japanese BLs set a tone/ambiance throughout their series!
I like how pure, fun, and innocent their characters are. I enjoyed the parts where Sakura plays the piano because it makes me feel like I really want to fall in love. However, I was wondering if they really played in the school festival. I was waiting for that moment or perhaps I might have missed it. I was really looking forward to hearing Sakura playing piano while Yuma is singing. I really like their friendship, and I can understand that they might be confused about their feelings at first since they are at the stage of discovery. Aside from the kissing, I am kind of disappointed since I feel like nothing has changed between them. I feel like there is no progression aside from their kiss. Yeah, they started to show that they care for each other, but I feel like it could have developed into something more. I am not talking about wanting them to make out or have intercourse, but I am talking about how they could have shown us more of their admiration towards each other.

Also, I kind of wished that they showed us what happen after high school since I am really curious about the path they decided to take given the fact that one of them didn't write anything on the paper [correct me if I am wrong].
In the last part, I was kind of wondering why Sakura acts like that. Is it all just a dream? an imagination? Did he ever confess in the first place?
This series is simple and pure, but I feel like it could have been better if it is longer and showed a progression of how they deal with their life throughout their youth as best friends/lovers.

She should have chosen Yamaken

How do I start? I just genuinely love Suda Misaki. He is such a great actor. I really like the ambiance of this film! It takes me back to my high school years and I become somehow attached to the characters. I wish it was longer since I want to know more about the side characters. Although I love Haru, I kind of feel like the main girl should have ended up with Yamaken. I really hate it when Haru gets angry. He tends to become scary and violent, which worries me a lot for the main girl for their future. I love how their friendship progresses, but she deserves better.

Cute but....

Don't get me wrong, I love Minami but her acting here stresses me out. I feel like it is too much for me, to the point that I just want the movie to end already to know how they will end up together. Also, I wonder why the teacher acts as if he is not the older one. When Minami shouts at him or makes some gestures, he never talks back like an older figure. I mean, he does talk back but not in a way that would make Minami stop and avoid him. Overall, it was cute and light, but kind of embarrassing sometimes. I think I would like it more if Minami didn't overreact or say some cheesy things when she's with her teacher.

"Loving someone means accepting the pain of losing them too"

I watched this BL with the idea that it might only revolve around food. Oh my god, I never thought that I would literally cry in episode 10. I was literally bawling my eyes out lol. This is so wholesome and nice in many aspects. Tane plays a huge role in their relationship and I thank him for his existence fr. This feels like a warm hug on a cold evening. I feel like it would be better to watch this on Christmas or Winter break since it has that warm tone that would make you cry under thick covers. I just hope that they would be happy forever in each others' lives. I remembered adding this series to one of our school projects since it moved me so much! There are really a lot of good JBLs. Keep it up!

I am bawling my eyes out

A lot of people told me to don't watch this drama since I would be disappointed. Did I listen? No. I didn't watch the anime so I won't have to worry about comparing both of them. I liked it so much and the song is just Chef's kiss! It left a bruise inside my heart since I could feel Mafuyu's emotions. I have a huge crush on Jin so every time Uenoyama is on the screen I literally scream af because I like him so much. At first, I wondered why the story wasn't focused on Uenoyama and Mafuyu, but then I realized that it was a story focused on Mafuyu's path toward healing. The end was endearing especially when they both kissed hehe. The singing part made me bawl my eyes out. I can feel that he really set himself free at that moment. I am proud of you Mafuyu.

Stressed out? this feel-good show is for you!

As far as I can remember, this is the second JBL I have watched! I like this so much! I kind of wished this was longer or it has a sequel since I want to see how the story of Ida and Aoki unfolds! Very cute, light, and heartwarming! If everyone were like Ida, being rejected wouldn't hurt that much lmao. As someone who is currently reading the manga, I can't help but giggle since they are exactly what I thought they would be, especially Hashimoto-san. Since this is my second BL, it made me set the standard so high in school BLS HAHAHAHAHA I also like how wholesome the characters are since they are all supportive except for that teacher who also starred in another BL. Also, for those of you who don't know, Shin of Minato's Laundromat is here! He is so funny here lmao

Very heartwarming!

I watched this series because of the plot I read, but I stayed because of the actors and characters. I just love how wholesome all of them are. Although I have to admit that I really don't like Tsuge since he is having this kind of weird vibe, but yeah, I enjoyed this series! This is the first JBL I have watched and I had a hard time searching for shows that are as good as this. Also, I love the office woman Fujisaki(?) because she is so awesomeeeee. I really like the fact that she has a character and not just someone who likes the Protagonist. She knows what she wants, and she is so nice! Also, Rokkaku my love, I can't help but laugh every time I see you. You've grown so much and now you have a laundromat (lol).

It wasn't that bad.

I have read a lot of comments saying that this was not nice at all, but I still give it a go since I have been running out of jbls to watch. The acting in the first few episodes is awkward, and I don't know if they are supposed to act like that, but yeah I don't like the way they act. Onoe is alright sometimes, but that Kaburagi(?) guy looks emotionless. After a few episodes, I found myself smiling because they are kinda cute. I kind of like the story, but I think this could have been better. If you want to watch something that is light, and cute, and if you don't mind awkward acting at first, then don't hesitate to watch this.

Fresh breath of air but.......

This is such a fresh breath of air. I found myself crying because I kind of relate to Mitsuomi. I mean, I feel like I am in a crisis too. The energy of Yamato uplifts me too! This is such a nice movie but I kind of wish that it was a bit longer since I feel like the ending seems rushed. I want to see some progress in their relationship, so I think it would be awesome if you will give us a sequel. I didn't think it was boring, I enjoyed it so much! I just want it to be longer so we can see how they would act as lovers. It would be nice to see their healing journey together.
