Completed - 1/16/2022 - Subjective 8.5; Objective 7.5-8.0

From a personal enjoyment level, I am rating this a 8.5 (upgrading from my initial 8.0), but objectively, it's probably a 7.5-8.0. I might just be in the mood for a light, short, simple drama and my gut tells me that I really enjoyed it.

The drama itself is quite predictable and nothing really surprises me. It's refreshing to see a female lead in a Japanese drama that is independent and strong at work. She's a pro badass and won't be talked down too. She seems perfect from the outside, but actually quite innocent and insecure when it comes to love. On the other end, we have a male lead who seems cool on the outside (quite typical) but indeed is just as vulnerable. I do want him to be a little more vocal and took the initiative sooner. I like the scenes when they leads are together and they have good chemistry.

Takada Kaho (FL) is so pretty in this drama. I really like her acting and she has big expressive eyes. I also love her all her outfits. I don't find Toshuka Sota (ML) to be handsome, but I do think he fits in the personality of the lead. On the contrary, Izuka Kenta (2ML) is dreamy and sexy. He looks his age (35) and totally not the young college student in the "Pornographer".

For a drama about de-flowering and rated R, the sexual content is quite mild. There a couple somewhat intimate scenes, but nothing too explicit. The intimate scenes were done right and very romantic. I actually wanted a few passionate kisses but didn't get that.
