Call Me by No-Name

Call Me by No Name completely caught me off guard, in the best way possible. I went in expecting something soft and cute (which it totally is!), but I didn't expect it to wreck me emotionally too.

This is the first Japanese LGBT series that truly hit home for me. It's warm, tender, and has so many small, lovely moments that made me grin nonstop. The way the characters grow close feels so real and intimate, like watching something gentle bloom. But then... the conflict hit, and wow. I was shocked. My heart genuinely dropped.

The two lead actresses were phenomenal. So natural. So raw. They carried every scene with grace and feeling, and I'm honestly still thinking about them.

This series isn't loud or flashy, it's quiet, emotional, and so beautifully made. It'll stay with me for a long, long time. Bravo to everyone involved. You created something really meaningful.
