A great short series that delivers 100% emotions and entertainment
Short series are tricky because you have limited time to narrate a coherent story without leaving any loose ends and making the audience lose interest. And sometimes we have a series like Jack O’Frost that keeps the story simple with limited characters and hits all the important notes that makes a series great. In a 6-episode series of 30 min each it successfully shows all the emotions: love, betrayal, heartbreak, concern, romance, misunderstandings, joys and sorrows. All the ups and downs in the life of a couple.
The story revolves around our 2 main characters. Ritsu is a talented illustrator and Fumiya is a salesman who happen to meet at a coffee shop once and as fate would have it fall in love and move in together. But soon Fumiya realises that life is not all sunshine and rainbows and breaks-up with Ritsu. An angered Ritsu leaves the house and meets with an accident where he loses all memory of Fumiya. Fumiya trying to get back together with Ritsu, hides the fact that they were dating and helps him try to get his memory back.
The show deals with multiple issues but what I really enjoyed was the portrayal of the life of a couple. What starts as a beautiful journey together where they learn about each other and cherish every moment together slowly turns bitter as priorities change and life throws other important events at them. Ritsu immerses himself in to his work and Fumiya feels neglected. Fumiya too on the other hand hides his feelings of disappointment from Ritsu which builds up as time goes by and finally leads to a war of words and ultimately a break-up. Ritsu’s amnesia allows Fumiya to revisit their life together and the feelings he would lose by losing Ritsu.
This series is also about rediscovering that feeling of falling in love with a person for the first time. That was the journey for Fumiya while Ritsu was trying hard to get his memory back and developing feelings for Fumiya. The location also plays a key role in this series since Ritsu insists on revising the places to jog his memory and hence, the director takes us through some picturesque places viz; the coffee shop, the lake, the cabin and the beach.
The actors did a great job at showing the relationship between the two characters; sometimes broken and sometimes full of joy.
In conclusion, if you want to see an emotional BL that is all about the relationship between a couple, a story about romance and rediscovering that lost love give this one a try.
