So they change the ending? I remember reading volume 7 and they didn't get divorce but Yuki ends up choosing Misaki and Shuhei was left alone. Was that different manga? I dont think so ...

This drama surprises me each and every ep. Like u think it is going to A direction but no. They divert you to C direction while make u think thing going to be in B direction a long the way. I like how the twist and turns are smoothly done. I don't normally rate drama with JE talents high since some of them shouldn't act in 1st place, but Nino is able to deliver what the drama wants from him. 9/10

This is a very typical Japanese housewife theme dorama. It is well done but nothing bad nothing great.

For a fellow Asian, I still find it funny how Japan doesn't think a woman can be a good mother and wife if they are working. U think this is only male POV in Japan but actually it is true from their female POV too. I think they only have Japan working environment and education to blame since they make it very competitive with high standard cost of living. This drama is trying to steer from that narrative. They promote housewives can use their skills for work and comeback to workforce after years of being a full housewives. 6/10

Im pretty sure ML is having mild ADHD but this drama somehow only addressed it as he is .... different. I was actually enjoying most of the parts of this drama. However, I will say that I dont actually care about the "romance" they try to push between ML and the dentist. I would rather they explore more of the story between the dentist and her boyfriend rather than trying to shift her to ML. Which is why I would say the last 2 eps really didn't click with me. 7/10

Well. I haven't read the manga either but here is my take as an Asian myself

While im not Japanese, thing can be pretty much similar in some Asian cultures. Especially in Upper class family and Some middle class family, table manner is considered important. As shown in ep1, Yutaka had a flashback of his dad scolding him about his poor table manner. Being consistently told as a child that you have poor table manner can develop into inferiority. So he is basically distancing himself from eating together with other people in fear of people criticized his table manner. Eating together with Tane and Minoru basically breaking up his this exterior shell that he has been guarded for so long

I personally think this as main plot works because people will not just torn down something that they have guarded for so long in just one night. It will take a lot of time to rip off all of it. And along side the journey, a lot of subplots can be added to reach to that point. While this looks odd as a plot point for most westerner, most Asian will find this plot point as normal. But this is just my opinion as an Asian watching another Asian drama.

This drama has 1 plot. But the plot is so basic yet they keep dragging the storyline of that plot till the end. The pace is too slow that it makes me lost interest in it. Respect people personal space who? this drama doesnt know them. Also this drama probably has the deadliest fish kiss on screen ever. It is like watching 2 people who didn't want to kiss at all but have to do it by force because it is in the script. 4/10

I can live with the fantasy part of Catman, Hamsterman thing. But ... the ending left me thinking ... is that it? This drama has plots but it doesn't have a main plot. So there is no climax watching this. 4/10

This is actually a lot more funnier than I expected and I didn't expect the bromance between cop and old thief XD. However, I do feel it loses some steam after 3/4 of the eps. I was a bit bored by the last 3 eps. 6.5/10

This drama ticks every generic trope in medical drama they can possible get with their idealism. The plot itself actually good despite being very generic. Im a person who like some realities in non fantasy drama. So drama with 99% idealism like this and Doctor X bore me a little. Also the ending ... it was a very weak plot for the ending. I was expecting much more severe storyline. 6.5/10

Fun light hearted drama but those JE bois sure are mediocre actors. Yuta and Kaito were fine I guess but Genki was horrible. Even with simple drama like this he can't really act. I mostly enjoy the eps though they are anything extraordinary. Also what is up with not showing Hiroshima's face till last ep. LMAO. 6.5/10

My god. I feel so frustrated watching this drama. After few eps, they just throw a new love interest to him and ML is so fickle, indecisive and u just feel like slapping him the entire time. 4/10

Yeah. Something like that. The drama never really explain what kind of CEO he is and I didn't read the manga too. But if we are basing on real life, Japan entertainment business are mostly sponsors by variety of companiest. And these kind of CEOs or company representatives always get feature in some sort of entertainment shows (Japan have many kinds of entertainment shows). And some of them ended up marrying some top celebrities too

Generic and very subpar plot. 4.5/10

He is celebrity CEO. Those CEO often appear in Japanese show. Japan have a lot of talk show and other kind of entertainment show. So make sense if Ritsu is one of them and he met madoka in those kind of shows

I have noticed that a lot of Thai BL fans have difficulty to understand Japanese drama in general. I think they are too used to Thai BL spoon feeds them the whole story from 0 to 1000 (i used 1000 because I mostly found them dragging too much with same information over and over again) that when they watch Jdrama, they are a bit lost. I see this is happening with More Than Words too in comment section where people are misunderstanding the storyline because they only remember the surface but didn't pay attention to the entire dialogues from ep1 till last ep including from side characters to connect the whole story

Wendy explanation is wrong regarding 1st question because if Makki didn't know the about the 2nd time, then how can Makki knows if the pregnancy in A weeks, then it is his child. But if it is B weeks, it is Eiji? This is actually very simple to understand. It means Makki himself knows the sex is happening twice and the 3 some is actually just 1 person doing it with Mieko, not both of them banging Mieko. Simply put, 1st time is with Makki. and 2nd time is with Eiji. That is why as u said, there is never direct accused from him. Im really glad there are still people paying attention to all the dialogue to connect the dot

Also 2nd question, Eiji never change his feeling. he still love Makki. But what he did was just paying more attention and care toward Mieko who is pregnant. When Makki questioning how can Eijishifts his attention toward Mieko and the child more by registering it to his family, Eiji even explain even if it is not his, he will do the same because they all made the decision together and he just being responsible. Ur initial deduction is right and if u watch a lot of Jdrama, u will know they never really explain explicitly some events but rather you have connect the dots with all the dialogue from 1st ep to last ep.

The story is rather basic and dragging to the point I only about 12% awake the entire time

it does

The dad is married with a son. Then he cheated on his wife with Ritsu's mom and Ritsu was born from the cheating
