6.0/10 -

This episode really resonated with me. Junko is a woman I understand. She was successful in school and all expectations were for her to get into prestigious Tokyo University. She failed. Much to her mother's disappointment. A disappointment she had to live with from there on. A disappointment she had sacrificed her youth for. Realizing that she had been living behind a fake smile. That she hadn't been having fun or doing what she wanted. In a job she hates just chugging along trying to maybe get an ounce of her mother's approval.

This is an episode of reflection and I'm very curious to see what choices Junko will make. I admire her will not to cry or break down.

This was also an episode of very cute meet queues. Kyohei Yuri's pink hair is actually what lured me into this drama, and I had know idea how much more I would fall into it. Darn pink hair can be sexy on a guy! I already like the chemistry between Junko and Yuri!

That said Masashi is Junko's cousin. Which is acceptable and normal in Japan. I figured people might ask about that. (Looking at some of the comments they have been.

This is a super fun start and I'm looking forward to this promising start.
