Maybe watchable
The cinematography is excellent: well directed, great camera work, appropriate acting. The atmosphere is quite dark and the story is in general well written. Actual problems of Japanese society are discussed, yet, as expected, only at a very superficial level. Inevitable the story have several moments where it is very disappointing and too naive. Also finding enough good actors on the same age to fill up a class is impossible. Hence, the drama suffers from the usual diseases of a high school show.The language is very nice, in general easy to follow, hence I assume, it is a series that is ideal to watch and discuss in a Japanese class.Was this review helpful to you?
Terrible
Blinded by the MDL ratings I started watching this series. The female lead is beautiful and can really act, the camera work is very good and all views are very carefully chosen and beautiful, the music is excellent. Everything else is aboelutelly terrible: a male lead looking and behaving like a mid-schooler, fully absence of writing, zero perspecive in direction.The feeling is of a long MV, very long 32 times 45 minutes?! Please give me the invested time back!
Anyway, it's my fault to le tme guided by random ratings and fan reviews...
