Title First Love Spoiler
Harumichi giving up so easily was so strange and it seemed out of character. The way he was written gave us the impression that he wouldn't have given up if he got a second chance to be with Yae. I thought Yae would be the one to walk away or set boundaries. This was the only part i didn't like of the show, it was the height of the show and it all came crashing down so their reunion was anti climatic and cliche. I was bummed out that the mother didn't apologise for her words or at least try to resolve the misunderstanding but it was realistic because we don't always get closure irl. It just irked me when she meddled and prevented Harumichi from seeing her but blamed Yae for her marriage not working out. When she was defending her mother from being looked down upon her mother chose to blame her. She tried to put the cheating aside for her son but being looked down upon, and the husband not taking her side was the last straw. They made her feel so alone and out of place so i expected the mother to be a bit more understanding. But anyway i'm glad she got her happy ending
