Not a classic BL but definitely worth watching!

This is my first review and English is not my native language, I am sorry for typos and grammar mistakes.

I did not read the manga, this is just about the series.

After watching quite a few BL series from Thailand, Taiwan and the Philippines I was kind of sick and tired of stories about engineering students, youngsters and first loves. They are adorable and cute, don`t get me wrong, but I was in need of something more mature.

And this is what really did the deed. It is not a severe drama, but it shows a “real life” gay couple in Japan (I am European, therefor some of the behaviour was quite strange for me, but again, another culture, another behaviour, no judgement). I loved that the protagonists are above 40 and this was not another teenage love story. The acting was great, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but still absolutely believable.

This show overwhelmed me in many points because it felt so real. The struggle of still being in the closet and the worries about work. The “need” to explain yourself why not being married to your co-workers. Parents who love you, but do not get you. And of course the daily struggle of a couple not clearly expressing their inner thoughts (I rolled my eyes so many times, thinking “Men!”)

This series is not spectacular like fireworks. It is sometimes like a sitcom (sometimes comedy) I am not sure how to describe it correctly. But it was soothing and it touched my soul. And it is damn cute if you read between the lines. Not to mention it is great for food-lovers! I will definitely watch it again (not only for the recipes), because it leaves me with a good feeling.
