When I watched the live action, I really liked the plot but some of the scenes of the characters were very cringe to me, I don't know but when you transfer the manga characters' expression to real people some things were off. But I really liked it so when the anime was announced I was very happy and I'm so glad I watched it!!
I've seen a lot of BL and I'm so happy that we are getting to see more positive and healthy relationships in this genre! Kurosawa is honestly the completly opposite of the typical "seme" (although I don't like to use this tag) in BL, he is cute, he is not afraid to show his feelings, he is kind and it's the way he loves Adachi so dearly that makes him so charming, I think everyone wishes to have a Kurosawa in his/her life xD. Adachi is the typical shy character that it's confused by his feelings but he doesn't take an annoyingly time amount to show them, he has a typical development to understand his feelings and is really cute to see him gain confidence in himself throughout the series and even doing things independently of Kurosawa, we don't only see the change in his relationship but also with himself.
The plot is really beautiful when you think about how Adachi feels like he has nothing interesting to show but others can see charming things in you when you don't think about it yourself, like Kurosawa. I also liked that the cast is primarly in his 30s, I wish there were more BL with adults in general, and I love the whole idea that is not bad or to be ashamed of being virgin or not found love even in your 30s.
The other couple has a better development than in the live action, I don't understand why in the LA they were more advanced than the main couple if they took longer to met, the actor of Tsuge in the LA was sometimes cringe because the expressions (It's not the actor's fault It's just that in real life it feels weird to me), I think the anime feels more natural and funny. The age gap relationship doesn't feel weird and I liked that Tsuge doesn't do anything till Minato reciprocated him, I liked the pace and the fact that they are going slower than the main couple, I wish we get to see more of them in the future.
My only complain with this anime is that the animation sometimes was a bit off and that's why I didn't put a 100, but it's nothing to be annoyed. If you like BL you should see this immediately and even if you don't watch BL but like romance you should try it! The plot is soft, cute and happy and because the manga is still ongoing, I hope we get to see more of them in the future! As I said, I'm really glad BL is having anime adaptations that are far away for being toxic and breaking the stereotypes and portraying healthy relationships with happy endings!
PS: The ending sang by both seiyuus is a BOP!!!!!!
