I don't agree with your comment about recent jdramas seemingly looking like soft-porn at all, makes me curious…
They take longer than other Asian dramas because a lot of the fansub groups or singular fansubbers that once was so many decided to stop a long time ago due to reasons be it said or not.
People who don't sub can't actually see it from the subber's perspective of what's going on to cause them to quit or what or not and sometimes an explanation is not always given.
There's only a handful of people who sub jdrama/jmovie these days compared to the past, so not everything or the majority of jdrama/jmovie actually gets subbed.

Yes, absolutely! It just depends on what you're looking for from something in the said genre at the end of the day.
But the only reason you see these kind of jdrama every one in a while is because Japan as a country is still growing and expanding, so naturally things like entertainment need to branch out into other areas rather than the same old, and to do this they do take inspiration and influence from countries like America.
See it in a way as a step that the country is trying to move forward and familiarize themselves with new things to bring about a change to make things more balanced.
People are just giving their honest opinion on this drama. If they love it, they will praise it. If they don't,…
I know, I'm just saying that to the subber some comments can come across as discouragement even if not intended to. As in the start of someone's comment can leave quite an impression on if the person should watch something or not even if it's actually something they'd find interest in, so discouragement to the subber in the sense that they can't share the show to more people who would enjoy watching it due to this.
I feel like comments should always be balanced when it comes to new people finding the show, so that they can take in both positive and negative views from people who enjoy it and don't enjoy it to decide if they should watch it or not after reading the synopsis to see if they have an initial interest or not.
I mean, we aren't attacking the subber's subs or the subber, we're giving our opinions on the show. I can see…
I know, that's why i said that they can come across as discouragement to the subber. Discouragement in the sense that it's easy to get a change of heart to watch something due to the impressions you can get from the comments already there.

Exactly. It shouldn't be disguised under romance or shojo/josei. If it is labeled as soft-porn I would have no…
It's not disguised as anything, it is in fact a romance nonetheless and it does have things like "Office Romance" and "Mature" in the Tags to let people know that content in the show is that of "Mature" content. Also, this show has in no way shape or form soft-porn as there's nothing in there that is evidently porn since you aren't actually seeing anything that can be labeled as such.

I wouldn't say that it's a trend, but rather the person who is adapting it from a manga to a drama wanted it to be depicted like this. It's not so much infidelity/sexual content since it's common to see these qualities in western shows that may have those kind of scenes.
Although, it's not that the plot is superficial, but rather the whole purpose of the plot is to get people wondering what the outcome will be of that kind of love triangle that is very fast paced compared to what you would normally see of romances that unfold in an office environment.
The plot in these kinds of J-Dramas is very simple and straight forward, so it's not really superficial since it's just not one of those typical J-Dramas with a plot that develops and has some actual depth to it as that's not the main focus of what's being portrayed in this show.
Let me make this statement clear, although there are a lot of bad reviews here, you can't just say that a person shouldn't watch this because their taste in J-Dramas may be different from yours. The plot, story, how the scenes are done, how the characters develop and how their personalities develop is not something that some people will be attracted to, but there will also be people who're attracted to this.
No one can say that one's review is right or not because that's just your opinion based on what you witnessed of the episode and if you're going to write a review of the episode then you should at least watch the whole thing because saying that you haven't watched the whole thing gives people less of a reason to do what you suggest and reviews are normally written by watching/reading the whole thing since you have to judge every aspect of the book/video otherwise you're giving an incomplete review on it.
Also, a J-Drama like this is practically similar to that of American TV Shows that have those kind of bed scenes in them as well even if only briefly. Any kind of J-Drama is made to appeal to certain audiences that may want to watch it for various reasons, so saying that it is bad is only because it doesn't cover your taste of a J-Drama that you like that falls under romance being the genre.
Regardless of it having bed scenes or not, there is a romance in this even if it's not obvious and not every show that is made is always great at first; plus, you're reviewing it after the first episode to be bad, which I think that if you're going to write a review then at least watch 3 of the 6 episodes, then make a decision to write out a review of your thoughts on it.
This is just how I see things to make it fair at least.

Hope this helps!
