I’ve been watching dramas for 20+ years & I’ve never been able to tell how good or bad a drama is within 1 minute..
I don’t expect you to love it the way I do but judging a drama based on it’s first minute is not fair. This is just my opinion.

What a moving & beautiful episode. Karibe, Kogo, Aiko, the rival Mangaka & stalker dude were AWESOME!!

I just saw E9 raw and Dylan it was freaking perfect. I loved it!!!

I watched the first 10 mins of E9 raw and I just had to make a comment on how hilarious it was. Bahhahahahahahhaa

I thought of a similar drama. Have you seen Densha Otoko?

Wow, this was fantastic. What an ending! I enjoyed this so much. It was painfully real, yet so quirky & engaging. A1 writing, score & acting.
Anyone that enjoys watching satires or social commentaries, this is a MUST WATCH! Highly recommended :)

The spin-off involves side characters. It airs after the drama. Most J dramas these days have spin offs where they place the focus on the side characters & their stories.

E8. An emotionally stirring episode for sure. I loved how everyone in the lab protected Mio. And Rintaro, OH MY HEART, he’s so so kind, protective & gentle with Mio it just makes the whole situation they’re in even more sad. I hope he’s not left alone in the end. Seriously Ayano & Ishihara have hit it out of the park with this drama; what started of as just a light (not to be taken too seriously) drama, ended up being a really beautiful one.

Not a fan of the ending of E8 but I’ll wait to see how it all plays out in the finale. I am not ready for this to end :(

Well don’t take my word for it. For all you know, you might end up loving it. Give it a try & see if it’s for you. The option to drop is always there :)

I can’t think of any drama that is similar to this, but these are some rom coms I highly recommend -

Sekai Ichi Muzakashii Koi
Zenkai Girl
Kekkon Dekinai Otoko
Remolove
Love Lasts Forever
Neechan No Koibito
Rich Man, Poor Woman
Date

First, he suspected that she was stalking him & chose to be ignorant about it rather than addressing it with her & trying to understand how he could resolve it. Secondly, he didn’t prepare her for rejection & tried to ensure that she was ready to listen to him & outrightly rejected her without even listening to her story & how she felt. Thirdly, after she cut off the call like that, he didn’t take any steps to check up on her to see how she was doing & let her reach that stage of self-harm.

I doubt he even documented the whole process or let alone speak to a supervisior which itself is unethical.

Also the fact that he took on a friend as a client itself is a huge boundary crossing that required even more attention & care.

Lot more issues, but these are the ones relating to your question.

This drama does seem to have a lot of abrupt cuts which is becoming more & more obvious (& bothersome) the past few episodes.

Who's squealing & fangirling after E6? That’s me!! The leads are so hot & cute! I can’t wait for more <3

You couldn’t have said it any better. I completely agree.

E6 was really powerful.
“There is no such thing as a crime that doesn’t harm anybody.”
The decisions we make have far-fetching ripple effects both for our future & the people who may be directly / indirectly involved.

Yeah but I prefer to watch with subs if they are available because sometimes there are some tough words I don’t understand.
Also it’s not easy to locate raws for a lot of T dramas.

I know right. I bet I’ll laugh my ass off & enjoy this gem even decades later <3

YES YES YES

E8. KANPEKI!!!!!!!!
*fangirling*

I wish there were more dramas that projected the way counsellors / mental health professionals work accurately. I can only name like 2-3 dramas that projected it well. The way Haruto addressed the whole situation of the client liking him was unethical, and could land him in a lot of soup in real life, with the client self-harming herself & also suing him for malpractice.

Oh well that's just me being nitpicky I guess..
