People are too harsh in rating this, I found this one quite enjoyable tbh. Comedy was really well done and romance is going in good direction. I also, unlike others, found FL likeable, she is a bit blunt but still honest at heart I would say. Easily a 8.5/10 till now.
Go ahead and read "Kuzu no Honkai decor", that's the ending that drama didn't cover
Totally get that, curiosity led me to give it a read myself. I summarized skipped events in a short comment up there, though won't suggest changing ratings even after knowing the ending as drama ends where it ends despite what happens in source material.
This was weird to say the least. If there was a genre like "Dark Romance" or "Twisted Romance", I think this will…
The missing ending episode:
Teacher and Brother marriage ends up succeeding somehow. Teacher is looking for men to cheat with, brother is okay with it....wtf i know.
Ecchan ends up in a sort of platonic relationship with that guy, don't remember his name. She is discovering independence and sorts...
Both ML and FL find themselves unable to move on. ML literally regrets letting FL go that day. ML and FL meet in a party by chance, and this time ML is bent upon on not letting her go. ML and FL reunite.
I skimmed through the manga, so this could a bit inaccurate, but that's the gist more or less.
This was weird to say the least. If there was a genre like "Dark Romance" or "Twisted Romance", I think this will fit quite well.
ML and FL had phenomenal chemistry, there was a lot of skinship but its not that, the whole situation just makes them 'sort of' perfect recluse for each other. I do question ML's actions and motivations in last few episodes though, they were annoying to say the least, if you have completed this, you know what I mean.
Rest of the characters are twisted in their own ways. Some much more than others. I don't see any correspondence to reality here tbh, because in real world people cope before going twisted as is shown in series. That's how our brain functions, it sort of self repairs.
Overall, not a bad watch, quite unique tbh 7.5/10. When you think you've seen it all expect japan to surprise you.
For those worried or dissatisfied with ending, go ahead and read "Kuzu no Honkai decor", that's one episode worth of material they didn't cover in drama and that's why you're lacking closure. Spoilers below for lazy ones.
What a masterpiece this was, really loved it. A warning to those seeking romance, don't get your hopes up. The drama is really good though! Easily 8.5/10
I am on episode 2, and I can see clearly that this "Kazami" guy will show interest for the female lead, but he…
Just like you, had an idea myself too, got the jist, saw the creep and skipped the nonsense, made drama much better. IMHO needlessly injected trope that took away from Kazami's character a lot, they do try to redeem him later though.
This did dent my rating by about a 1-1.5 point though.
Good drama with some good fluff moments. I found chemistry a bit lacking at times tbh, but it was not half bad.
Ending was good, should've ended at that hug scene though, that was really well done.
FL did really well, ML did okay, got tired of ML's indecisiveness. Would've preferred if ML didn't need such gargantuan amount of outside help just to realize his own feelings. Also, that Kazami guy is not a friend, he is just a creep, good that they didn't stretch his plot beyond 1-2 episodes.
Overall, decent lighthearted romcom, could've been better 6.5/10
Started good, became boring and super frustrating fast. Plot in itself was decent but this series sadly suffered from various other massive problems. No chemistry between main leads, unnecessarily stretched plot, needless separation trope done again and again and again, bad acting too on top of all this. ML literally had a poker face for whole drama! The reveal moments and people reactions were disappointing too. Bad direction overall.
With the pace and lack of developments this was a really frustrating watch. No to to mention after that long torture they actually managed to mess up ending episode too. JUST WOW! Can't rate this any more than 4.5/10 and that too mainly for production.
