Kishi Kishi’s dream and life tutoring

This drama gave me both laughter and romance. It’s not particularly deep, but it absolutely delivers what it promises. I also appreciate how the story handled the relationship between the main characters. They never directly expressed their romantic feelings for each other, which makes sense given their student-teacher dynamic. That boundary could have been uncomfortable or inappropriate, but the show handled it carefully and respectfully, which I really admired.

If a second season ever happens, it would be the perfect opportunity to take Toru and Kishi Kishi’s relationship to the next level, especially now that Toru has graduated and is preparing for his college entrance exams by the end of the series.

That said, this show truly shines as a comedy. From the exaggerated delinquent reactions to Toru’s inner monologues. The unexpectedly soft, girly voice was just funny and endearing. The delinquent quartet was also a standout; all of them charming in their own ways. From the sexy mustache guy, to the cute “cucumber” type, to the overly dramatic one. Each character brought something unique to the story. And of course, Kishi Kishi himself is effortlessly good-looking, with an almost angelic presence in both his expressions and gestures.

What I love most about the series is its progression. By the end, we see Toru chasing a newly discovered dream, to become a teacher just like Kishi Kishi. That moment felt touching. Seeing someone inspire a younger person to shape their future like that is genuinely heartwarming.

Throughout the entire show, I felt a sense of positivity. Watching the characters immerse themselves in studying while still learning to enjoy life made the experience feel comforting and uplifting. Rei stood out as a memorable character, and I loved this side of him. The entire cast did a fantastic job, delivering strong performances that elevated the series.

In the end, despite being a light and easy watch, the drama carries meaningful lessons about the importance of studying and finding purpose. It’s a simple story, but one that leaves you feeling good long after it ends.
