RyuseiKento

exactly at least one person who wrote a fair review.

tbh i didn't find their relationship toxic, i think they don't know how to deal with emotions, love and relationships. They are immature, but they both have a decent growth arch by the end. His speech after dining out was such a powerful declaration of love, and he suppressed his feelings to make her realise her dream. But it is also his character to hide his feelings; when he is honest, he is extremely honest and absolutely disarming. The airport scene, cmon. The boat scene etc etc. He loves her and was clear to me straight away.

both fl and ml have character growth, she becomes less childish and more mature and so does he.

also he ruined the cake so selfish!

Honestly, I don't care how bad or cringe this is, I am watching it for Kento, and so far he has delivered.

This is probably the romantic Jdorama with the most realistic intimate scenes i have watched so far.

If you like Ryusei watch Neverthless, it's on Netflix, steamy love story. I watch a lot of cheesy fun Jdoramas too. https://kisskh.at/779448-wakatte-ite-mo-the-shapes-of-love

Yes exactly. I never watch it i don't go that far back with my Jdorama, i think older than 2016 is a stretch for me.

it is the character he plays

he was perfect in Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, theatre a love story. Th guy was like what 16 when he started.

exactly what you said

Ryusei Yokohama one of my fave Japanese actors and the hot male lead in Why I Dress Up for Love he is actually an amazing actor, definetely he has graduated from the rom com to the lateTaiga Unbound and movies like Faceless, which you can watch on Netflix and Kakuho which is the Japanese entry for the Oscar 2026

no but i am a neurodivergent neet myself so i get him.

clearly he is a neurodivergent neet.

I agree and didn't make the comparison, are the Kdrama fans always the ones to make it? I am European too, by the way. This site is already Kdrama and Cdrama-focused, with zero news or articles on Jdorama. I really don't understand why bash one new show based on a shoujo manga with the old marriage contract trope, which is actually not at all the usual one if they watched the first episode. Plenty of new romantic-focused Jdorama without old tropes from Escape to Romantics Anonymous, Gimpab & Onigiri, We are worse at love than Panda, Love Unseen Beneath the clear sky, Even if all love fades, Learning To Love, Small Bait, Big Love: Ebiko's Hunt for Her Mr Right, Cinderella Closet. This is a list from serious to more shouju cheesy ones. Simply watch the serious ones, which are plenty these days.

legal drinking age in most EU countries is 18 by the way.... 20 is pretty late to have a drink jes! is like america you can drive at 16 which is insane but you cannot drink until you are 21 ah you can have a learner driving license at 14!

tell me you don't know japanese dramas or you only watched the bad ones...

absolutely untrue that have been tons of non rom com japanese drama better than any K or C drama. The Journalist, Alice In Borderland, Romantics Anonymous, Scandal Eve, Escape, Just a little bit Espers, and the list goes on. K and C won't be anywhere right now without Japan which was the first country to start crating TV shows and movies. Also they all need to thank Japanese manga and anime.

First episode was sooo cute, food looks great and it's so wholesome. The rain scene will become one of my fave rain scenes of this season's dramas

it's on netflix worldwide
