I’ll miss Minato and Wataru.

This was the slowest of slow burn shows – but it’s what J-BL is best at and I’ve enjoyed waiting each week for the next installment. I can see it’s not to everyone’s tastes who like a faster pace plot or more NC’s and intense intimacy scenes (I love those things too, but I know to expect a different flow with a J-drama)
The layered narrative from school boys to adults felt very real and my heart was aching alongside sweet Minato as he waited for Wataru to catch up to his feelings. Thank god that slow boy got there in the end lol.
The last episode was thoroughly a joy. I could have watched 6 more episodes of the boys just being in their domestic happiness.

If you’re a fan of photography, then this show would be your wet dream.
Watch it for the gorgeous scenery.
Watch it for the slow-paced plot.
Watch it for the two great friends, their connection so evident in every scene.
