Cute! “Coincidence becomes destiny”
This quick (6 x < 20 min) is a feel good, first/unrequited love series that is perfect for a mini-binge watch. You can feel the changing of the feelings between the main actors and makes you want to keep watching. Acting is good and feels genuine.There are some awkward things to overcome or could wish for more character development but one can’t expect all that and Cherry Magic or Semantic Error with a series that is half as long.
Hope you have as much fun watching as I did!

Well Worth 2.5 Hours!
If you enjoy Japanese story-telling (thoughtful, nuanced, and deliberate) with a mix of solid acting with real-life examples and situations (especially of sexless relationships) - you'll find this 2.5 hour well spent. While it will leave you frustrated and you may not agree with the choices (and the indecision or at times emotionless approach) - the actors and the story do a pretty good job of balancing relationships that for one way or another feel like a cage, no matter how much love there is.Was this review helpful to you?
Lots of digging to find some gems
Unfortunately, only a few gems in the 16 hours - better to spend that time re-watching some of the favorites there. A few gem moments in the "A Tale of Thousand Stars" or "My School President" and maybe even "The Eclipse" otherwise seems forced and as always not close to the originals. Could be worth it if you are hardcore about a few couples, which in that case you already watched it ;)Was this review helpful to you?
