Quite an interesting drama that decided to tackle a taboo theme. I chose to watch this because of Ninomiya Kazunari. The theme of the story is all about typical teenagers and how they deal with life especially their curiosity with sex and other typical teenage issues like friendship, school, family. Yeah, I do agree it's close to American Pie and it's like a Japanese version but I do want to commend the acting of the actors. I love the flow and twist of the story especially at the latter part. I also like the love triangles. It's close to reality making you feel for the characters and relate to it. I do recommend it for those who are in for teenage themes. I can re-watch it and it's best to watch with friends/peers your age.
