Fluffy silliness and light for me

This is what I call a "comfort binge" and i find this enjoyable bcuz the feelings are mutual, damn it's relatable. If you've never been in a relationship especially same-sex relationship with anyone, then ur knees be trembling and u'll get more stutters than usual just like Aoki.
The series, for me, projects awkwardness in a good way bcuz let's be real, if u never have any kind of romantic relationship with anyone it'll be awkward who to make a first move, what to do if u start dating and how u behave and contain yourself whenever you're together. Aoki is me and I could see myself being an awkward one in a relationship cuz I don't know what to do when I'm in a relationship.
I would like to point out how interesting the plot. It's not cliche whatsoever. Not like enemies to lovers, friends to lovers that kind of shit we would normally see in other series out there. It's a mistaken identity then as the story unfolds, Hashimoto didn't really have a crush on Ida but on Aida. It was like bcuz of Ida's misunderstanding and Aoki's owning the misunderstanding is just unique to start the plot. It all started bcuz of the eraser. I don't think the plot is that complicated even if the plot twists came in.
There are things I like about this series.
1. Aoki and Ida roleplaying Cinderella. Damn Aoki looks beautiful with that blonde wig. Just imagine how you feel if you're nervous on stage plus you dressed as a female character and partnered with a handsome cutie. I would die gurl. It's the cherry on top for me when Aoki slipped and Ida caught him in his arms. That shot was beautiful.

2. The general awkwardness and uncertainty of Aoki bcuz he's just started to learn what Ida seems to like and dislike. He's sensitive and well-aware of Ida's feelings so he tries not to make him uncomfortable and I think that's natural. The confusion Aoki experience when he doubt why Ida got shocked when Aoki tried to hold hands with him. I feel him, like Aoki needs assurance everytime he does something that might scare Ida. Also that hesitant and fleeing Aoki is very relatable bcuz when u see the one u fell in love with u started to become shy and run away scared to let him know your feelings for him.

3. I love how easy Aoki and Ida reconciled in the end. It's not something troubling. It's like just right considering this is a light series. It should not be that problematic.

4. I love that Hashimoto cleared who she likes and the other girl who had a crush on his mentor or something else. A.k.a. there's no bad bitch cliche who tries to rain on the main leads' parade.

5. I like that Aoki's sub teacher is revealed to have a crush on him. That's just a different plot twist bcuz usually it'll be your friend/enemy or classmate who will be your rival but here is apparently different. It also showed us that Ida once been friends with that person. I love how accepting he is at Ida and Aoki's relationship and he just moved on. There's no war whatsoever.

6. I relate to Aoki's fear about being open loud and proud about his relationship. He's not that ready and considering that it's a same-sex relationship which many people roasts. I love how he just talked that with Ida. I get how Aoki is afraid of their relationship being open to public bcuz that is something a homosexual usually fear when they first get into a relationship with other man. I love how supportive all the people around the two, they're not homophobic or indifferent. It felt good not to see a homophobic character taking shots at gay couple.

As what I've said I relate how uncomplicated this series was but there are still few issues I need to address.
1. The lesser episodes it is the better. I don't think fluffy series like this need 10 eps tbh. I think some other series that have complicating stories should have 10 or more eps just to deliver the plot effectively. For this one, it could be like 7 eps then, boom, done
.
2. I dislike how meddling Aida was in his first appearance in the series. I thought he made thing worse when Aoki really caught feelings for Ida for real. He just rain on Aoki's parade. I hate when Ida replied that he's relieved that it's just a misunderstanding. I was like a dagger to heart. Imagine hearing that from your crush, it hurts like hell.

3. Not a fan of last-minute problem. This is like when all comes to an end then a problem pops out. This happened when Aoki broke up with Ida and that's just stupid. I would prefer them being lovey-dovey all throughout in the Illumination Festival. Not really digging that issue.

4. Not a fan of Aida and Hashimoto. They did not really do something special so that's that.

I don't think I have many things to add anymore. I laid all I could think of about this series. It's not bad it's just good. Good that you'll need it after watching a very complicated series. Like u need a refresher or a calm drama just to take a break. Overall I think it was a good series that is a comfort series.
