JBL cliches always works

I love jbl. I love clichés. I love the same storyline repeated over and over. I love seeing the same trope. And you know why? Cause they always make masterpieces.

So the story was very simple but very good. Hioki is a guy with no friends, that while creating groups for a school trip, gets invited into this group of four guys, the most popular guys at school. He create a special bond especially with Watarai, who cares a lot for him and seems to always be around. If u wonder, yes, of course he liked him before and of course he was the one suggesting to invite Hioki with them for the school trip. He fell in love with him cause he was the first person that ever saw him for who he was and not for how he looked like.
The story, given how SHORT it is, its full of small moments of jealousy, insecurity and their bond getting deeper.

Very cliche, right? Well I unfortunately could not give less of a fck. It was SO good. REALLY good. I'd always eat those series up. It was sweet. Really sweet. It made me want to fall in love and get into a relationship. I so wished it happened to me, so many times. The character were all green flags, Watarai I love you so much he was so nice throughout the whole show and ge was clearly so in love. Hioki was so cute and he looked soooooo good in the maid dress ep.9

The acting was good, I always love how Japanese act, and of course, I love how the script works. They were so cute, and honestly all the guys did very very well. Even if they got like two minutes screentime I think that the group was soo cute and I so wished we just got to see more, cause I geniunly believe that they could give so much more.

The vibe was immaculate, whatever filter they put in this show to make it that magical 1000% worked, it gave that "nostalgia of places I've never been" typa feeling and it made the show so much better under so many aspects.

Its a pity that it was so short (10 ep/23 minutes each + 1 special ep) cause I feel like they always cut short the part where they date, which it was longer and wish they gave more insight.

Overall it was such a fun and cute series that I cannot really find the bad in it, and its a suggestion for wveryone tjat needs a cute series to kinda just fall in love again and again.
