+ The actors do a great job! I like their acting and it's fitting to the character they play. Although Ida looks a bit too old for a Highschooler sometimes, but who cares lol. He plays a calm and distantly dude and Aoki calls him Grandpa a few times, so it's good. :'D
+ The group of friends is my favorite I've seen in a show so far. They are attentive, caring, supporting af and funny. I just love this!
+ Although the show is pretty much build up on misunderstandings (which I usually don't like because it's often frustrating) it doesn't get boring or frustrating. It's really fun to watch! At first I was like "Ugh, please don't!" but after I realized, that they don't use this to drag the show in an unnecessary way, I really liked it! The pace is fantastic!
+ Hashimoto is BY FAR the coolest female character in BL History ever. For real. She is absolutely perfect and I adore her!
+ Toyoda and Akkun are also super cool best friends! Although Toyodas advices are more helpful... :'D
+ They address important topics! Like homophobia or the anxiety about what other people will think about the same gender relationship.
+ It really shows what is needed to have a good relationship, but also with which struggles teenagers have to fight. Not only in a gay relationship, but in life in general. I didn't expect this deepness in this drama, but I was pleasently surprised by it and enjoyed it much!
+ The two leads are really different, but also similar when it comes to caring about each other's feelings and making e/o happy. We get a lot of inner monologue from Aoki, and a few from Ida, and it was really helpful to understand Ida's feelings and thoughts.
+ The soundtrack is ABSOLUTELY catchy. I am so mad that this is not on Amazon music LMAO but I love the song "Ubu Love" by Naniwa Danshi (Aokis actor is part of the group, while Ida's actor is part of Snow Man, who also sing a track for this show! Both songs are great and so fitting for the story!)
It's really rare that there is nothing much to crizice for me in a drama. But..after a long road of (more or les) disappointing dramas...I have finally found a gem again! Really... There was not a single episode where I had a thought of being bored, annoyed, frustrated, loosing interest or whatsoever. Every episode got me hooked. I was so into the story and the characters, because literally every character is just likeable. There is not a single character where you would wish they would just disappear.
The only thing that doesn't sit with me right is: there is no kiss. Overall it didn't really bother me, but I know a lot of people critize a BL without a kiss and I can understand it. It tells a lot about how homosexuality is handled, because if this would've been a straight couple, there would've been a kiss probably. Sooo i took half a star off it. Just because they talked so much about the next step and it would've been perfect, if they would've reached this next step at the end.
I hesitated to start this drama for such a long time, because the synopsis sounded a bit boring. But after watching randomly a short on YouTube about it, I was catched and started it immediately. And lemme tell you; I don't regret a single second I spent on this drama. It's so lovely, cute and heartwarming and the only thing I kinda regret is, that I didn't watch it earlier.
