Lovable Characters are the Strength of this Bromance
It's a simple plot but the characters are likable and engaging. Naoya (Sato Yusuke) plays a strong lead as a guy who has no baggage about liking guys --- Kota (Sota Ryosuke), in this case. Kota is "questioning" his same sex attraction, and this is fine but his character is just a little too slapstick -- and that's the main failing of this drama, it can't seem to find the right tone. Is it a serious drama or a farce? Thankfully the Naoya character keeps us grounded for most of the series. There are a few secondary characters that seem unnecessary and overly slapstick. The sub-plot of the "lucky" vs "unlucky" wears thin quickly and should have been dropped at mid-point, but I suppose that's going to be the payoff where the "unlucky" guy finally get's lucky? Like the story, the music score is pretty subtle but perfect for this kind of drama. Overall I'd love to see these characters in a more inwardly focused story -- like two guys on a camping trip, removed from the cliche themes of university life. And despite my reservations about the slapstick moments, Sota Ryosuke plays them well.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

when the luckiest guy on campus meets the unluckiest guy on campus
It was another very cute Japanese bl that targeted the very beginning phase of a relationship. The narrative of being with someone for their luck was actually very fascinating and unique. Acting was good considering that it's pretty obvious that they are going for an animated vibe for Kota. His expressions and actions are all very overexaggerated but it was fun to watch. The actors definitely did a good job.Only real complaint I have is that this was way too short. I wish this was 12 episodes because 8 episodes were only enough for them to scratch the surface of this relationship they are having. However, I don't regret watching this at all. This drama would definitely deserve a season 2.

CHARMING CAST AND STORY REMINDS US OF CHERRY MAGIC
CAST. Just like another Japanese series, CHERRY MAGIC, the two main leads of this series are its best asset. Both are adorable, especially Sato Yusuke who plays Naoya. Both the actor and the character are endearing. Acting is also natural. As for Soyta Ryosuke who plays Kota, his exaggerated acting makes you feel that you are watching an anime. Even the delivery of his lines are very cartoon-like. And it’s also charming.10 / 10
STORY. Story is cute, although I feel that the writers should’ve written in about the two main character’s families. One can’t help but wonder: Why are both characters living alone? Where are their families? Who pays for their tuition/rent/bills? I love the maturity of Naoya and how he handles situation and how he respects Kota. Also love Kota’s character development towards the end.
I read some comments from viewers who are disappointed that there is no kissing scene at the end. Hey guys, we got one at the beginning, right? Also, series like CHERRY MAGIC worked and are well-loved despite the lack of kissing scenes.
9 / 10
CINEMATOGRAPHY. It’s still a puzzle to me why Japanese and Korean BLs use so much filter. I know some series/movies use filters to hide the cast’s age, but in this case, the cast are all young – so what gives? Some Thai series are guilty of this, too. It’s ok if white filters (diffusers) are used for dream sequences or fantasy scenes or flashbacks, but for present day scenes, I don’t think it’s necessary. MUSIC is also mediocre, nothing impressive.
7 / 10
REWATCH VALUE. 10, if only because of the two male leads. Haha!!
10 / 10
OVERALL RATING
9 / 10

THIS DRAMA IS SO FLUFFY AND WARM
I absolutely loved this drama....the chemistry....the story....the acting.....the fluffiness everything about this drama was just perfect.I loved how cute and natural the love between the two main leads were.
The story was also told really well and used the short time it had really well. The pacing was also well done and didn't drag at any time.
This drama also had a deeper meaning when it comes to the lucky and unlucky parts of the drama because the lucky characters life is so perfect that he constantly wonders if people are nice to him only for his luck and the unlucky character tries to stay away from people to avoid affecting them with his lack of luck. But because of the unlucky characters both leads meet and they both begin depending on eachother to live normal lives.
The fluffiness of the relationship was also well balanced and didn't make anything seem cringey or annoying.
All in all I loved this drama and once again Japan has did it again with delivering a beautiful drama.

In defiance of the title, Mr. Unlucky strives not to kiss!!!
But he will win you over regardles. From start to finish, this drama never fails being entertaining, impossibly cute and at times, devastatingly heartbreaking. It's very much worth the time you invest in it, more than once.What I particularly liked:
1. Shinomiya is THE perfect boyfriend. Literally a fairytale-like prince, inside and out. He's hot. He's sweet. He's a good friend. He respects your boundaries and makes fun of you in the nicest way possible. He voices his feelings!!! For real.
2. Fukuhara has been funny and relatable for the vast majority of the show. I wanted to strangle him only like thrice during the show, each time lasting mere seconds.
3. The soundtrack is catchy and fits the ambience very well. For people looking for it, it's called "Perfect" by "OCTPATH".
What I particularly disliked:
1. Their relationship can get a bit repetitive with not enough development at times. You might hear they lack intimacy, which I personally wouldn't have minded if there was additional progress to compensate for it. Alas, I wished for more towards the end.
2. The subtitles aren't that good. There are few minor issues I can look past, one annoying one that bugged me but didn't ruin it for me, and one major problem I will feel salty about to the end of my days. I'll leave a spoilery comment under the review pointing those out.
3. Pomeranian. You'll understand after watching it.
Overall feelings:
If you're looking for something light on plot, short and sweet, this is the show for you. Just be warned that like many japanese live actions based on shounen-ai manga, this one is also very ridiculous and innocent in its portrayal of love.

So cute and heartwarming
I have watched this three times now, and I like it a bit more every time. I love that there's no real drama or toxicity, just two lovable characters with funny, cute and heartwarming interactions. You can just feel how much they care for each other from the way they look at each other. The actors did a great job conveying their feelings despite the silly situations they find themselves in. The music is also great and really adds to the mood of some scenes. My new go-to when I'm in need of fluff. I really hope we get a sequel eventually!Esta resenha foi útil para você?

the luckiest unlucky person
The story revolves around two characters, Fukuhara and Shinomiya. Initially, Fukuhara is portrayed as a manipulative and "unlucky" person who seems to benefit from being around Shinomiya. However, it becomes clear that some of Fukuhara's misfortunes are due to his own clumsiness and lack of communication skills. Shinomiya, on the other hand, is seen as a lucky and caring individual who is drawn to Fukuhara's lively personality.Fukuhara's abrupt love confession to Shinomiya is initially seen as self-serving, but it becomes evident that Shinomiya has genuine feelings for Fukuhara. Despite this, Fukuhara continues to take advantage of Shinomiya's feelings and luck without showing appreciation. However, as the story progresses, Fukuhara begins to realize the sincerity of Shinomiya's feelings and gradually falls for him, showing remorse for his past actions.
In episode 5, Fukuhara starts acknowledging his feelings for Shinomiya and becomes more protective of him, standing up to those who try to take advantage of Shinomiya's luck. Ultimately, the two characters have an honest conversation, leading to a new beginning in their relationship based on honesty and courage.

It's good, but not outstanding
Should you give this a watch? Sure!It's fluffy, the side characters are fun, the actors are good, the story is trying something, and at times it's really funny. Will it change your life forever? Surely not, but is that what we were asking this drama to do?
This really comes in line with the recent influx of Japanese BL drama. I want to add cookie points for the production team of this drama, because things just...look nice! There are some pretty shots at the aquarium especially, and we get a few moments when the leads seemingly break character which is for the better.

I got ants all over me because of the sweetness
For those who are wondering, this serie is a *happy ending*Things I like about this serie:
- Handsome actors especially Naoya. Such an ikemen.
- A very sweet and attentive seme. No red flags whatsoever.
- Tsundere bottom x pursuing top
- Top notch comedy.
- Followed the original to almost a T.
Things that I somehow didn't like about this serie:
- the randomness of scenes, especially in episode 7 and 8.
- The lack of skinship? Which opens new plot points if there will be a season 2. It's just, for readers who plan to watch this, just keep in mind that that this is a budding love. So there's progress, but do not expect too much.
Cinematography.
- Angles are very nice.
- There is a cloudy and dreamy visage all throughout the series, which makes it a bit hard to view some of the details in the series such as the surroundings. But I guess they did that to limit the part where there is not much of a population, I guess?
- I really love the voice overs and the soliloquy of the characters. It also presented both sides of the main roles which gives a better understanding of the story.
All in all, this is a sweet and good watch. I kept laughing out loud and giggling. I need a Naoya in my life too hahaha. If you liked Takara and Amagi and Cherry Magic, you will definitely love this too. So give it a shot!

Cutest drama ever !!!
OMG!!!I don’t think I’ve ever Fan-girled this hard in my life. The drama was so cute, their relationship developed so well, and there were so many cute and heartwarming scenes between them.
Kota was such a cute and bashful character and I loved his attitude towards life. He had a lot of insecurities, but he never let them affect him.
Naoya on the other hand is one of those people everyone assumes is perfect because of popularity, but also has his own fair share of imperfections he’s too afraid to show.
I love how their contrasting personalities balanced each other, it really helped with their romance. I wish we could have gotten more romantic scenes from them.
The two of them got me all jittery and tingly and I honestly haven’t felt like this in a long time.
This drama was honestly just Eye candy galore. All the side characters were so attractive, this was a heavy bonus.
The only downside for me was that their back and forth got a little too draggy and some of Kota’s kawaii moments were more cringe than cute. But when has cringe ever bothered me.
If you love BL, fluff and cuteness overload with a little bit of cringe, then this drama is perfect for you.

THIS IS THE FLUFFIEST BL I'VE EVER WATCH
I REALLY LOVE THE STORY LINE. How they met, the misunderstood, they were happy together, etc.I didn't expect naoya to know kouta bfr kouta first talked w him. How he met him is just so adorable. Naoya's really adored kouta, and THAT MAKES MY HEART MELTED. And how kouta feels like he only used him, but then he turns out he really likes naoya🥺
THEY ARE SO CUTE AFFF IM CRYING😭😭😭😭😭
I love kouta's transformation to mad anime lmfaooo. PLUS SHINOMIYA IS SO FREAKIN HANDSOME, AND KOUTA IS SO FCKING CUTEEEE.
ILYILY, IM GONNA REWATCH IT.

C'est plutôt mignon et bien fichu
Voilà une histoire qui n'est de loin pas indispensable à suivre, ça ne vole pas très haut du moins en apparence, les ressorts du scénario sont un peu cucul parfois, mais c'est très mignon, agréable, on passe un bon moment et en plus l'histoire ne dure que 8 épisode de moins de 30 minutes chacun, donc c'est le drama idéal pour passer un bon moment.J'ai toujours un peu de mal avec le jeu d'acteur des japonais, l'acteur principal est toujours dans le surjeu, et c'est le bémol que je noterai. Je ne suis pas spécialiste des séries de ce pays donc j'ai peu d'éléments de comparaison, mais en rédigeant ce commentaire je viens de me rendre compte que dans les 2-3 que j'ai vus dernièrement, les caractéristiques des personnages étaient assez identiques : un acteur plus "mimi" qui surjoue, grimace, se prend limite les pieds dans le tapis et a des réflexions internes exagérées en voix off, et un deuxième personnage plus froid, plus "impassible" et vachement dans le contrôle (le fameux cliché du tsundere) mais super bienveillant et attentionné au fond. Du coup un peu d'originalité ne ferait pas de mal de temps en temps, surtout si ça nous permettrait d'éviter le grimaçant censé être mimi et drôle mais qui manque sérieusement de charisme justement parce qu'il en fait trop. Heureusement, le côté mignon de l'histoire vient contrebalancer cet effet négatif, mais ça a aussi un autre point noir, c'est qu'il ne faut pas trop compter sur les bisous, le héros étant relativement gêné par cet aspect-là.
Après, l'avantage de cette histoire, qui fait se rencontrer deux individus dont l'un est super chanceux et l'autre malchanceux, est de nous faire réfléchir au fait qu'un revers est parfois le passage nécessaire pour ouvrir le chemin à quelque chose de plus sympa derrière, qui ne se serait pas produit autrement. Et puis le format très court permet de se concentrer sur l'essentiel, je n'ai pas remarqué de temps morts et le développement de la relation se fait de manière fluide, en gros c'est très bien agencé. Le malentendu dure uniquement jusqu'à la moitié du drama, ce qui est plus sympa que d'avoir cette épée de Damoclès au-dessus de la tête pendant des plombes et d'angoisser sur le moment où la crise va tomber sur le héros, qui envisageait de révéler la vérité et qui comme d'hab, se retrouve à gérer ladite vérité qui est sortie avant qu'il ne la révèle lui-même. C'est mieux je trouve, et une fois ce malentendu réglé dans les épisodes centraux, la romance se développe sur une base plus saine par la suite.
En résumé, on ne perd pas grand-chose si on ne visionne pas le drama, mais au moins on passe un moment plutôt sympa devant une intrigue mignonne et légère, ce qui nous laisse souffler entre des productions plus prenantes émotionnellement.
