doesn't seem like a sequel since this is an alternate version?
The ending seemed designed to just be a wacky ending. On some level I feel like the director for this and also Shinhannin Flag enjoy seeing how over the top his characters can be.

Despite being Co-produced with Hollywood, I don't see any added value.
co-produced with an Israeli company mor than a hollywood one (Keshet) but they do give it more of a US feel which isn't necessarily good but in this case it hasn't bothered me too much. First time for me seeing Israeli names in the credits of a jdrama which is interesting.
the sexuality spectrum of Takahashi Issei's roles just keeps getting wider lol Oh and these two used to be siblings…
Was his character in two psychos queer? I noticed right away how he's great at putting on make up and the first thing he does is sleep with the roommate. He just seems very closeted "like oh finally I can sleep with a guy and it's socially okay" Oh and he says he used to take his subordinate to a spa and the detective was thinking this would be a great place for couples to go to. The whole thing just seemed like okay this guy is not straight. But it was very snuck in very discreetly so I was second guessing myself if I was maybe putting too much into it.
Takahashi has pulled off a lot of different roles. I only recently started watching him (in Nagi no Oitama) and at first I hated him but then I realized no he's just doing such a great job at this character!)
In general though there's been more LGBTQ+ representation in dramas and I love it.
Just finished ep 3 and so far so good. Definitely related to all the confusion. I started the whole dating thing when nobody talked about aro ace and I had no clue I was ace spec and it caused a lot of misery all around. I hope more people are spared this because of more representation.
The characters want to be listened to and heard, thus their "healing" comes in a form of being heard and not necessarily…
just finished the third ep and it's definitely a type of drama Japan does best. I like the music. I like how they don't sing particularly well even and that she's not solving their problems but rather giving them an outlet to help them start to work out their own solutions. Since it's so geniune it's somehow not cringy for me to work. I love the air guitar in particular.
I also think it's interesting they have this since it sounds like culturally nobody would get comfortable enough to just start playing an air guitar in public, but watching this drama might have a glimmer of an effect also?
they used the same format for Anata no ban Desu too and it was so annoying. I had forgot and I got to the end…
Agreed. I'm totally enjoying this. I think with this and the Anata drama you just go with the flow. Like in Anata when one of the characters was hauling this suspecious cooler and it ends up being food for his crocodile.
I don't like cheating partners either honestly. It's a cop out. Relationships are about communication but the way it's been presented here it's not so black and white with what happened so I'm hoping that becomes clear in season 2.
25 years is a huge age gap though. I think they're better off with him being more of a fatherly figure to her but since two different characters mentioned to Mizuho that she's in love not sure how that's going to go.
Interesting that somehow you think Maho and Atsuto should just die but you don't mention anything about what should…
I do not base my drama preferences on who I am. I watch based on if it sounds interesting, what actors are in it etc.
I love Nishijima's acting and will watch something simply because he's in it because he's a great actor.
Ther'es a lot more nuance here than just 'Oh that woman hurt my favorite character.' And it was not just one person it takes two people and so far Maho seems a lot more innocent than Hayashi. The fact that he has xy chrosomes and she has xx is irrelevant.
