It took 10 EPs for Wataru to finally say “yes”
This drama gave me so many kawaii feels. It’s a light, easy watch with little to no heavy plot, and I did enjoy it. Maybe not intensely, but just enough to appreciate the chemistry between the main couple. Kaname is undeniably handsome, and Kakeru is such a cutie. That said, there were moments when their acting felt a bit stiff, though that might have been intentional to suit their characters.
Story-wise, I think it would have worked better with fewer episodes. The pacing felt stretched, with slow and minimal character development. Wataru’s hesitation, in particular, needed more depth. His fear of shifting from best friends to lovers wasn’t explored enough. I enjoy a good slow-burn romance, but it has to move forward, not just circle the same point.
The kiss was sweet, but it could have used more intensity. Their first kiss made sense as it reflected their gentleness and respect for their “just friends” boundary. But as a viewer, I couldn’t help wanting Wataru to finally cross that line and do more.
The cinematography was beautiful and really enhanced the story, especially with the characters’ shared love for cameras and photography. Minato stood out as a warm, caring presence, and I always enjoyed his scenes. And Wataru’s soft, almost “baby” energy made him incredibly endearing. I genuinely liked watching their dates and photography walks.
Overall, it needed more twists and emotional depth to feel fully satisfying. It’s an average BL drama; not groundbreaking, but still charming enough to capture my interest and heart. I did love the ending, though. Seeing them together. Almost like newlyweds, talking about their likes and future. It was a simple but heartwarming conclusion.
