Goukon ni Ittara Onna ga Inakatta Hanashi (2022)

Bad but Fun

Listen. I went into this knowing it would be cheesy, low budget, and gimmicky. I wanted a cute romance between tomboys and cute guys, and unfortunately I think this is the best you get within that niche. It's very badly edited and acted, lots of tropes that are done unsatisfyingly, and characters aren't given much depth at all. That being said, I found the humour so incredibly stupid that it was endearing. Funny not quite in the way it wants to be but regardless I giggled throughout. It felt like an Onision skit at parts but without the bigotry so if you also fell down that rabbit hole as a preteen and had a crush on him for years maybe this will be your thing. If you like low budget, cheesy J-dramas that were clearly done with 10 cents and a dream, go for it. Or if you're a bisexual with inclination for feminine men and masculine women (oh, the unspeakable things I'd let Fuji do to me.) Otherwise, maybe skip this one.
