Lovely
A drama I avoided because of the comments but my love for Mitsushima Hikari was bigger and I decided to give it a chance, I don’t regret it. It is true that it has plenty of unnecessary dramas and that It could’ve been way better but it was a lovely watch. It might be because I am a teacher and I could relate to the situations the characters experienced with the students and the school superiors; they were times I had to debate with myself if I would do that or not as a teacher, it was fun. As much as I enjoyed the female lead, the one that caught my attention was the female principal, she had better character development than the others by showing why she behaved the way she did and the change of her actions, she grew on me. The relationship between the teacher and students was what I liked the most, how they cared for each other and worked together to achieve their goal.Here enjoying Back to normal by Yuki Hayashi cause the OST is really good.

I've always loved boxing, so I just *had to* watch this "Mirai e no 10 Count". Upon watching, I have to say it was OK but nothing worth calling home about. But the worst thing is, it could've been so much better!The script indulges too much on PC and too little on substance (I'm comparing this to "Engine" which I'm watching ATM - same ML, similar premises and settings - and "Engine" wins hands down, seriously!); most of the characters are not really developed but just bidimensionally sketched (for example, I wish the SML and SFL had had much more screentime and relevance!) and I'm not really satisfied with several of the writer's choices (for example - SPOILERS AHEAD!!! Jump to the next paragraph if you wanna avoid them! - I would've shipped the ML with the SFL and the FL with the SML; I wouldn't have had the ML meet his late wife's double - that was some totally unnecesary cruelty from the writer!!! As was Momosuke's life-threatening injury! - and I would've given much more room to the boxing club and the torunament!!!)
The acting was ok, as were the music and the "packaging".
I thought I was gonna give this a "7", but the "missed opportunity" factor made me lower my rating in the end.
