even though the vibe was laid back, u could feel the tension between the leads - the acting is solid, but that's to be expected with mature actors. ******************************************************************************************************************i like Azuma, he seems depressed & doesn't really have a direction in life - he is just existing but isn't bitter about it - he's cool - chill even & i like that small smile he always has. also love the fact that even though he is mooching off his sister, both her & her husband don't treat him like a moocher or a burden, he is just part of their family & the ambiance is very warm & caring in that house. heartwarming to watch - *****************************************************************************************************Kuji is harder to read, am still hung up on why he would "dine & dash" on Azuma the 1st time. but after coming to his rescue, i am 99% sure he messed up the books in that book case, just so he would have a reason to contact Azuma again & offer him a job. even though there weren't hints, u could still feel the tension in the air between them & am sure Kuji never initiated anything, cause of how he disappeared the 1st time & doubt he ever would if Azuma didn't take the lead. ************************personally i would still be holding a grudge on how he just up a left after the 1st time to ever suggest a 2nd, not if there was no apology or explanation. guess given Azuma's feeling unconnected to the world in general, he doesn't care & is looking for anything that would give him a momentary connection to something. really enjoyed this & can't wait for the next ep -
