Overall it's a good drama to enjoy. Like I have seen many others mention, as vulgar as the topic can be, it is surprisingly a wholesome drama about 5 friends. If you are old enough and openminded enough, please give this a watch.

Story
The storytelling of this drama was very interesting. The whole drama revolves around a group of five coworkers/friends who each have a unique quirk/trait to themself but also mirror/parallel each other. This, I loved. We start of by getting to know the promiscuous girl, named Momoe, that has five friends-with-benefits whom she spends most of her nights with. In contrast, we have the only other girl, Ume, be an asexual virgin who's only sexual interest is BL. Matsuda is the male equivalent of Momoe, being a handsome man who has multiply friends-with-benefits. His other male colleague is Hayashi. Hayashi is a man who is constantly working out and looking at his ex's social media. Due to how things ended with his ex, he now only wants to be in a relationship with virgins and has become a "second virgin," not having sex with any other girl since his breakup. These four have Hiyama as their team leader, a workaholic who uses his money to buy time with an escort and does not have any real relationship with a girl outside of this.

Each episode would tend to focus on two individual themes that ended up being shared among two of the coworkers and how it differs among them. This shows how separate and unique their lives and problems are among the group. Soon after, the story had an "its a small world" interaction with characters, connecting all the personal lives of the five friends even outside work but with none of them finding out. I really like that, as usually when something like this happens, its to "out" a person to the rest of the characters, but not here.

Actors
I really liked all the actors here. They were above average and did real good, in my opinion.
