My friend and I picked this up as our first ever subbing project and all episodes have been released. You can watch the episodes in the link below!

Not sure if you still need this info, but the actor is Nozaki Yutaka: https://www.instagram.com/ytk.n13/

It's not a direct sequel, but it is kind of a spiritual sequel. Some of the cast is playing similarly named characters but not the same ones (for example, the Eno in this is very different from in Occult and him and the director's character don't know each other) but the movie is in the same style of found footage horror with extraterrestrial themes.

I think it was purposefully vague to highlight that it didn't really matter the outcome. What matters is that Riko confessed—something she might not have done before because it's not what a "mass-produced" type would do. She's a Zaku who was capable of making the "last shot."

Love Island: Zombie Apocalypse is fun.

Can't believe it ends this week. This show has been so much fun—great characters and simple but effective premise sprinkled with some magical moments.

What a sweet little drama with fun characters. Give Airiin more roles!!! She was great in this—a natural fit for her persona.

It's definitely not subtle about its subject matter, being a melodrama and all, but I still liked it. Pushed my limits with all the stuff they threw at the wall in the last two episodes, but still liked it.

Great to see Tsuchiya Tao in a TV drama again. Also, Matsumoto Wakana didn't just understand the assignment—she made it. Queen.

If you scroll down further in the comments, Coriander has a list of what you're looking for! Kikazaru Koi is definitely the first thing that comes to my mind as a similar show. To add to the list, I would also recommend Kono Koi Atatamemasu ka.

The .ass file is just the subtitles. You have the download the video separately from Hikari Raiders. Here's the link to download the episodes: https://justpaste.it/4a63s

Furritsubs has a great tutorial on how to do this for first-timers: https://furritsubs.wordpress.com/watch-guidelines/

OP is "Crescendo" by Choutokkyuu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXp60oaL-zw

I wonder if they'll make Suzuki Airi do a full sprint every episode. XD

Totally caught me with the first episode. Abera Hidenobu bringing some off-kilter energy to the direction—love it! Reminds me a bit of Omimi ni Aimashitara, which makes sense since Hatanaka Shota is working on this too.

They're on Viki, just search for the series using the title "60 Minutes Until the First Love Affair."

Really appreciated the way our leads' arcs unfolded over the series. The subtle moments becoming major beats towards the end. Fittingly, their stories develop slowly, just like how flavor develops slowly when you smoke something. And in both cases, the time spent is worth it in the end.

Great finale that emphasized what a "good guy" Tsuyoshi is. I don't think it could have been done any better. Seriously, kudos to the whole team because writing and direction for this series was consistently strong.

Farewell to this heartwarming coming-of-age drama!

I really loved how much the story placed value in kindness, understanding and camaraderie, especially among women. We all need that little brightness in our lives. Such a fun and uplifting show with the cutest cast of characters!

Tsuyoshi's situation is extreme but I feel like we've all been in the position of trying to meet the expectations of people around us—family, friends, etc.—while also figuring out our own identity in the middle of adolescence. You're never the real "you" to most people. His feelings are so grounded that it's hard not to relate to him.

Episode 9 was fantastic and I can't wait to see how this all ends.

This had one of the strongest pilots of the season but the rest of the series was kind of clumsily written and directed. I reached the end for Issei and Ko (and Rihito, who should have been given more to do) but it's a shame—they deserved a better show.
