So much tension without being intense..

This was a nice short series; good for when the brain or heart needs a break after some of the heavier stuff out there in the BL world.

The story was unoriginal but that didn't take away from its charm. If anything, the realistic plot was very relatable. I feel like even younger people could take away from this as a "live while you can because you don't want to end up in a stagnant life" mantra.

The tension between the two leads was so palpable, it had me blowing out a contented breath when they finally kissed. The actors delivered all the emotions in a spectacular way; from Togawa's unbridled longing and the snap of his restraint to Nozue's surprised pleasure and confusion.

I could see myself watching this again when I need a lighter piece to cleanse the mental palate.
