Communication is key

This story is about 2 people trying to navigate a relationship when both have different expectations of a relationship and what they think will make them happy. While Shuto is content with companionship, Rei becomes confused and insecure because Shuto hasn't "made a move" on her. Learning to communicate and making decisions based on their own desires, instead of the expectations of others, is a difficult but ultimately rewarding path for both of them.

I think that this would have been a better series if the writers had left out the attempt at humor and faced the story head on. I was kind of disappointed that this didn't go the asexual or aromantic route, because that would have been a new and interesting story. However, it did portray the insecurities of a new relationship. They took it a little far, though, by having the couple act as though neither had experienced sex, although one was experienced and the other had had sex at least once prior.

It wasn't a great story but it wasn't horrible (except for the attempts to break the 4th wall by talking to the camera bits.) More natural acting would definitely have been my preference. The attempt to draw the audience into the story just didn't work well here.

Please ignore the individual ratings, because...was there even music?
