Reviews
Best GL out there
Everything is perfect in this drama. The director Eda is a genius. Mio and Ichika did a great job. Their acting is so good. The aesthetics are top-notch. I have never seen such great visuals although I have watched countless dramas so far. Impressed with everything. I wish they would continue the series and there will be a second season two because the chemistry of MioChika is out of this world. As individuals, they are amazing people in real life too.Mio and Ichika chan you guys are amazing and have all my life. Fan for life.

OMG, why are most JBLs/JGLs/JQLs sooo fn dark?
Most shows in the queer spectrum from Japan have a dark undertone and this one is much darker then most.How to articulate all the feelings I have in a not rambling way?
After watching this I'm still a bit overwhelmed. What starts as a coincidal meeting of two young women, where one of them takes the other home, gets weird after just 8 minutes into the show. I won't spoil anything to you here, because the show will only work, if you don't get spoiled imho.
Kotoha has a dark secret and bet's that Megumi can't guess her real name. Because her name is curse or fate or both. This is a novel concept and makes life for Megumi difficult. She has to explore here true feelings and she needs to confront Kotoha.
The only little downer I had in the finale episode, it was a bit dull in the end and I expected more. But overall the arc was interesting, the acting was very good and the cinematography more artsy as in many other shows and it captures the angst, the love and all feelings inbetween perfectly.
I did not expect much from the show and I stumbled over it by chance, but alone the title intrigued me.
So, if you have no fear to go to dark places this show is for you. But don't expect fluffy scenerios but there is some light in the dark places. And this show is truly outstanding.
