A beautifully imperfect relationship between two complex characters
One of the only few dramas that gets better and better the more you rewatch it due to the complexity of the characters and relationship, which were all well depicted in the details in acting. While slightly controversial, I think that the two main leads' relationship is the most interesting of all that I've seen so far from a BL.
Hira's a foolish character with a huge inferiority complex due to his stutter but can be rather self-absorbed as well, which you wouldn't quite notice until you see the relationship from Kiyoi's perspective since most of it was from the former's perspective. Meanwhile, Kiyoi is selfish and arrogant due to the lack of love he received growing up. And it's only when you see how much effort he actually put into their relationship, that you realise that Kiyoi truly treasures Hira and is more kind than mean inside. The two make up a rather odd couple, but despite all those flaws, it's obvious that they're made for one another.
The acting and cinematography was also superb in this. With each scene depicting exactly how one character feels about the other and some scenes were truly beautiful. Hagiwara Riku did an amazing job at showing Hira's captivation with Kiyoi, and Yagi Yusei did a terrific job at depicting the complexity of Kiyoi's character and emotions, especially so for his first ever actual TV acting job (not counting Mannequin Night Fever).
I just adore how well written and depicted the characters were, and with the little amount of time they had to show this story (6 x 20mins), the story still felt complete. Nonetheless, I do hope that they get to do a Season 2, or even more, since they do have the material to do so for the light novel! And I just hope this drama finally gets the attention it deserves considering the near-perfect performance.
