High school love story between a shy FL & ML but FL forgot about ML after a week but he tried his best to remind her again. ML didn't know she was ill & FL keep it a secret from ML. The cute scene is when ML throw a book that FL left in the train. Yamazaki Kento drama/movie as a high school student mostly is a must watch.

Both movies center two high school students using an "exchange diary" (koukan nikki) and begin with the protagonists having an unrequited love towards their somewhat cold love interest, though the genders are reversed. Both movies also feature some kind of love triangle. The way each movie plays out and ends is quite different, but they both give a similar fluffy, heart-warming feeling. If you enjoyed one you will certainly like the other.
