The premise of the story is a bit over the top because most people will forget and forgive if they encounter an incident like this. That's all I can say about the plot without giving too many spoilers.

Our three main characters: Makota, Kida and Yocchi have been friends since they were little, and continue to be friends until they become young adult. Everything looks beautiful and so promising. And audience would expect a happy ending for this kind of story. But is the happy ending in the story really the happy ending expected by the audience?! Well, you have to decide it by yourself.

Absolutely brilliant storytelling! I loved how the story sets the tone at the very beginning, and the constant shifting of timelines added so much to the suspense. The Japanese are always too good at telling love stories in a way that makes the viewer become engrossed in the world of the characters.

Also, great acting by the two lead actors, Iwata Takanori and Mackenyu.

The way that the friendship is developed between the three children into adulthood was so charming. Often the behaviours - from feeling a sense of inadequacy or shyness, leading to awkwardness - was so well written and delivered by the child actors as well.
