I didn't know what to expect of this drama since the actors and the trailers seemed to focus more on a comedic vibe rather than an iconic dashing BL couple vibe (like Kimi ni wa todokanai for example), but this drama was really good! My only issue is that the length is a bit long at 10 episodes of 20 minutes, but all characters were a joy to watch and it was really nice that everyone around Soga-san and Sakae-san accepted their sexuality and relationship as if it was the most normal thing.

The dynamic of the couple is really unique, a young izakaya/restaurant owner and a salaryman customer meet and while their personalities are wildly different, they feel drawn to each other and their feelings deepen more every time. As a viewer, you can feel the relationship becoming less formal and more comfortable for the two characters. While the drama is definitely a comedic one, the romance feels real and cosy. I recommend this drama not only to BL enjoyers but to comedy/romcom/slice of life enjoyers as well.

There's enough intimate scenes to make me satisfied, I don't think this BL needed anything spicier than what was in the drama. I hope this drama gets the appreciation it deserves.
