Waste of potential
Watched 4/10 episodes
I feel very weird watching this drama because it feels like watching anime but with characters made of flesh (or maybe characters that don't feel like actual humans at all...). I've had amazing experiences with anime in the past but I find it cringe when actors are asked to act like anime characters because imo manga and anime language don't translate well into live action when it is done literally. At least for me it's hard to relate to the story when it's done that way. Another complaint that I have is that such an important and relevant topic as gender expression wasn't treated the way it deserved. I expected the drama to be a lot more serious and realistic than it is. Instead, the general tone just doesn't feel right for this kind of topic and that disappointed me big time. That's it. But I must say that Meguru is a very interesting character and I feel his potential was wasted.
The Kira character was kinda funny but way too anime-like for me (though I usually like eccentric characters but this one was maybe a little too much?) but the drama had much bigger problems than this particular character so whatever.
