Better than the Japanese version.
This longer take on the original material is far superior to the Japanese version. In that one, there is a toxicity to how the main character treats his love interest that borders on homophobic. This version makes it much cuter, far more fair, and substitutes in friends and adults to add value and balance the story. The side couple is actually the one that is less healthy with a bit too much lack of self confidence leading to jealousy and bad choices. Overall, this is a more fun more relatable version with two actors who have become very familiar with each other in previous BL couplings.Was this review helpful to you?
Aoki portrayal ruined it.
Aoki was a wholly unlikeable character. His own self-loathing was an excuse to hurt Ida over and over again. He does not communicate and blames for Ida not understanding. He makes up Ida's thoughts for him and then blames him for the wrong guesses. He makes Ida ashamed to want to be with him. Aoki is too selfish and it did not make sense for Ida to want to be back with someone that toxic. I hope the Thai version is better and does not force us to believe someone as hurtful and damaging to others as Aoki is ready to date anyone.Was this review helpful to you?
