Alright, so this show- It's a fluffy, weirdly heartwarming rom-com with a twist of suicidal comedy. Yes! you read it right.
The portrayal of some very sensitive topic in the most amusing and clever way possible!

Haiba Jin, a morally grey teacher (but lovely human being) who is a bit out of line and a rebel stops a student Mikoto, a depressed soul who has lost interest in almost everything from committing suicide by offering a relationship as the last lifeline. His quirky and 'inappropriate' humor as he tries to cheer her up and sometimes distract her from her distressing life-ending thoughts is honestly an entertaining watch.

The chemistry between them is perfection *chef's kiss*. Even the intro song vibes with it. I really liked how Mikoto stood her ground against Haiba Jin's constant flirting. His charm game is on point! It totally worked on Mikoto (gradually) and on me too! *_*

I appreciated how they both were so self-aware that the relationship wasn't exactly kosher. They did roll with it but cautiously and delicately navigating the boundaries. The narrative was handled with thoughtful consideration.

The pace was surprisingly fast which is uncommon for J-Dramas known for a slower pace and inner monologues. However, I wish they should have spent a little more time developing the character's relations and individual personalities. It seemed hasty at times and the editing seemed a bit choppy with scenes abruptly starting and ending, which confused me here and there. But overall, these are issues that can be overlooked. Though the flashback scenes were done well to tie everything back together in a full circle!

This is my new comfort show and I would definitely recommend giving it a watch and a re-watch, too!
