The Proper Way to Write Love Episode 1

pretty sure this was a big misunderstanding…

pretty sure this was a big misunderstanding or Natsuo inability to communicate his true feelings as teens. idk if now he recognized Hiroshi & saw this as a 2nd chance to get what he couldn't, when they were students. or he is just attracted to Hiroshi - time will tell. ****************************************************************************************************************but it is clear that Hiroshi didn't read the situation right & assumed that Natsuo the delinquent was just toying with him. he didn't understand that Natsuo genuinely fell for him. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************maybe Natsuo's family was bad/sad & as a consequence he was scared or didn't know how to convey his true feelings, maybe he had a learning disability something that handicapped him further.. maybe that & who he was was gender wise, let alone the school with other delinquents - he couldn't come out & knew it would be safeer to just be around Hiroshi, pestering him (like the kid that pulls the hair of the girl he likes) it's something that's better then nothing. & sadly Hiroshi was so used to getting bullied in that school, that he just assumed that Natsuo was just another bully that found a new way to bully him. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************i still don't get what we saw at the start, was Hiroshi trying to force himself on Natsuo, his way of getting even for all the bullying?!? that would be bad - cause Natsuo's immature & a goofball but he isn't mean - never was (ok when he lied to his friends on the roof, that was bad) still he doesn't deserve to get SA - hope i am wrong. ********************************************& just throwing this out there is Natsuo did something similar to Hiroshi when they were teens - two wrongs don't make a right. y'all adults - talk it out or curse him out, threaten to go to the cops - anything but try to do to him what he did to u.

So far, it's preety good.

The story seems good overall, and the actors fit the characters well. My only complaints are that it seems a bit more disjointed than I would like, and I'm not convinced of the motivations for the MC. Maybe it's a combo of experiencing bullying in the US during most of my school years as the perpetual odd duck and of seeing much worse bullying in other Japanese shows, but so far, what the MC sees as bullying would barely qualify as annoying teasing for me. The juvenile behavior of the ML during the high school flashbacks would qualify as mildly obnoxious, but it is coming from a guy who just doesn't know how to show the guy he's attracted to that he is interested in him romantically. At that age and in that society, his behavior isn't anything that would warrant the "revenge" MC plans to take. Maybe the ML's behavior in high school will be revealed as more problematic in future episodes. If not, then I worry that the MC will never become a genuinely likable character compared to the ML for folk like me. Time will tell, I suppose.
