i loved this!!!

alright so I came to know about this drama yesterday, and I just started watching it on a whim. I was getting bored so I thought, why not give it a try~ then the first episode blew me away. i rewatched the first few seconds of the first episode again and again so i remember the line too.

"sensei, that time i lost my mind and i selfishly got irritated and excited, so much that I lost sight of what's around me and even myself, to the extent that sensei, i fell in love with you."

when there was this voice-over with the background music( btw the ost was so damn good, ill talk about it later), and with akira riding that cycle with the insect's noice in the bg , with all those memories flashing by, ugh idk how to explain it. i just loved that feeling. it felt so real and it felt as if the emotions were so powerful and complex and yk all sorta things, it somehow felt nostalgic i guess. Im trynna say that it started out so beautiful.

and then i loved the cinematography. the "blue and grey" kinda camera works. which gave like, old vibes. this is my first review so idk how to explain well but all im trynna say is that the "blue and grey" vibes worked perfectly on this.

then the acting. I loved it. in some other jdramas i have watched, the acting is very awkward and kinda cringy but in this one, i didnt feel one single bit of cringe. The actors portrayed the characters so well. They totally fitted in the role. although actor acting as akira seemed a bit too big for a 15 y/o, that was not really a big problem for me. And then the actress acting as hijiri, she did so well too. how she smiled and how she handled stuff (i dont wanna spoil so heheh) even the side characters like haraguchi san's actress (one of my fav characters, i love her), and kawai kun's actor etc all did very well.

OST.... Defn one of my fav osts. i feel like an ost is good when it displays the mood of the situation/ drama perfectly and for this ost... damn, even now when i listen to it i feel the chills go down my spine. Why? good music and vocals? eh~ music and vocals were good but the reason i loved it is because it reminded me of the feelings of the drama. it like enhanced the vibes, emotions and feels of this drama. when i heard the first few seconds of the ost after i completed the drama, my eyes were filled with tears and my heart started pounding so hard, im not even lying.

story-the story was beautiful. i dont wanna give spoilers but it was such a heartwrenching and wonderful exxperience. this is a very contoversial topic but in my opinion this drama handled this topic so well. if any of you dont want to watch this because of the age gap then ure being stupid. here's why.
1. This is a drama not even real life so yk all sorta stuffs happen in dramas and this is pretty normal.
2. Even in real life, there are couples with 10 years age gap or even more.
if u think student-teacher r/s is prohibited or smtg,
1. Bruh yk people cant really control their heart. Even in this drama, we can see that hijiri did not want to like her student but obv it was not under her control whether or not to like someone.
2. Its 2021 rn and when this drama was released, it was 2018. this is a modern world where people should be free to do what they want. in intl aspect, 18 years old is not even a minor and yeah "spoiler" when they start dating, kuroiwa kun was 18 so....mmmmm

character development- there was so much of character development. we see kuroiwa kun matured up so much, hijiri san got courageous, side characters also got character development.



overall i loved this drama. it was one of the best dramas ive ever watched. hope yall give it a chance too <3 <3<3
and yeah thanks to all the people who worked hard to make this drama.
