Dark and intense, painfully raw, infuriatingly violent, emotionally thought-provoking. Definitely not for everyone, especially for the faint of heart...
One of the most affectionate, down-to-earth, wholesome slice-of-life dramas! Exceptionally detailed in every aspect: not even one character is unnecessary, not even one line or moment of silence is in excess, not even a scene is a filler... A real gem and a well-deserved 10/10 in my book.
Short but comprehensive historical story of family bonding, samurai honor and justice, with a great blend of comic and dramatic elements, and a fantastic performance from 17yo Kiyohara Kaya! (too bad though, that edo-period hairstyle didn't do Machida Keita any justice at all ^^)
A beautiful love story with some wonderful friendship and bonding between all characters, and one of the most adorably clumsy and cute couple. Delightful rom-com without any over-the-top cliches or annoying side characters and fillers, a catchy song, and a head-strong female lead that you can't help but root for :)
A beautiful, deeply humane story about family relationships, homophobia, prejudice, acceptance, regret and grief. With well-balanced emotional and comic moments, and without being over-dramatic, cheesy or preachy, this short drama was a bittersweet and heartwarming watching experience, that was worth every minute of it.
Delicate, beautifully affectionate story of a young woman's journey to self-awareness of her aromantic and asexual identity, and an honest, realistic representation of aroace people. Heartwarming and thought-provoking, with detailed attention to many issues it addresses and impeccable performances from Kishii Yukino and Takahashi Issei. That talented man never disappoints...
Enjoyable office slice of life comedy, without any unnecessary toxic rivalry, ex-lovers, birth secrets etc, and a great performance from Kim Hye Soo. Though the plot was a bit repetitive and predictable, the cool bad*ss character of miss Kim was a pleasure to watch :)
Uniquely absurd, superficial and provoking at first, it ended up being a refreshing, addicting and thought-provoking watch! Ohno Takuro with his Mary Poppins cross-dressing nanny style, motherly instincts and over-the-top musical scenes was a natural charmer :)
If you turn your brain off about the fact that the ML is a minor throughout the whole drama, then this is an entertaining rom-com with a lot of character development. Though the story is somewhat predictable and has many grey corners plot-wise, the natural acting and the quirky characters (kudos to grandma & butler!) made this unusual Cinderella story a pleasant watch.

Amazing job, you two! Hwaiting! 💕❤️💕
