Like a perfect manga!
This BL has been quite viral and for good reason. The couple is adorable together and the height difference further adds to this. There's something about them being childhood friends that makes the viewer naturally curious about the relationship of the two. I am very satisfied with this BL and the length of it. 8 x 20 minute episodes is great for a Japanese BL and each episode added depth. I did feel like my expectations were made a bit too high from what I saw on social media, as the BL feels very fictional and manga-like with some of the acting and mannerisms. This is highly enjoyable but it does decrease the relatability factor for me personally. The side characters were enjoyable enough, maybe not quite as much as some of the side characters in other J-BLs. I was particularly annoyed by the guy who keeps trying to get Kakeru a girlfriend, but it is realistic for a Japanese high school setting. Overall, I highly recommend this BL, the visuals and vibes of the drama are great and I am looking forward to see more from the two. We didn't get much skinship other than a cute handholding scene and two kissing scenes that didn't quite feel passionate, but I don't think this is the BL that needed that. Enjoy this drama!
