watch it!!!
(very minor and vague spoilers, but just in case, I labelled it as spoilers)
I love this show. Like, I think I have rewatched this show at least 3 times it is so good.
At first, I only started watching this drama because I love Jinguji from King & Prince. While I thought the premise was interesting, I wasn't expecting anything phenomenal, and went in with the expectation it would just be a good watch. Suffice to say, I was blown away.
Although the story is good, what takes this show from being "good" to "incredible" is the characters. Specifically, Takatsuki and Fukamachi. Their relationship has a natural progression, and watching Fukamachi slowly but surely open himself up to Takatsuki was satisfying, and made for an excellent character arc. In addition, despite Takatsuki being Fukamachi's assistant professor, Fukamachi shows the same level of care towards Takatsuki that Takatsuki shows Fukamachi. This created an equal relationship between the two characters, which I appreciated. It's clear that these two characters are good for each other, and I applaud the writers for characterizing their friendship this way.
While there a few minor plot holes regarding Fukamachi's abilities, honestly, the sheer sweetness of Fukamachi and Takatsuki's relationship made me completely overlook it.
All in all, you should definitely watch it.
