Very cute but lacks closure
The basic premise was cute, but there were some things early on that felt like they got dropped. I would have glsdy dropped one of the multiple trauma dumps in the middle to flesh that out more.Ans after the big scene it kind of skips to the end. Id like to see more of the status quo after that scene.
But that being said, it had lots of great moments, both leads did a great job, they made me understand why they would fall for each other. If you have a way to watch it, its a nice way to spend an evening.

Stars are for season 1, not season 2
I've rated this JUST based on season 1 because Season 2 doesn't have its own page but I HAVE to write about it because it pissed me off.Season 1 was delightful, quite good for a vertical with minimal budget. My beef is only with season 2.
WHY ARE WE PRETENDING HINATA DID SOMETHING WRONG???
Was this written by someone in college who feels really bitter about not seeing their boyfriend enough? Because he works? Everything Mizuki did pissed me off. Bro is just bored and wants to start a fight about it based off of conversation he heard from two random girls in a cafe. Meanwhile, Hinata is apparently working at a black company in the big year 2026 and just trying to survive the new job. I'll agree that the "must be nice" comments aren't great from Hinata but that's nothing compared to "you're never too tired to take out the trash". Hopefully Hinata doesn't develop a disability because Mizuki will LEAVE HIS ASS. Has the guy never been tired? In his life? And look, I enjoy my alone time more than anyone (like, a lot, like, I NEED IT) but the timing and conversation they had about Mizuki going camping was ridiculous. They even end the season with what was supposed to be(?) a cute, heart-warming moment that just feels like another slap to the face when Mizuki says this is the view he wanted to show Hinata. Cool. BUT HE WAS WORKING.
Also, this is not what college is like? I've never worked a job as demanding as college, and maybe Mizuki doesn't have to work a job while going to school like a lot of people, but he should still be a bit exhausted from the course load and social obligations (they happen even if you don't have friends or a social life and I don't know how but they just happen). It would make more sense if it was a more mutual conflict where they couldn't make their schedules work rather than this WHOLE THING being about how Mizuki DOESN'T LIKE THE WAITING but then he says at the end that hE ACTUALLY DOES....SO WHAT ARE WE FIGHTING ABOUT?????
