I started watching this adaptation on raw, when it started and I really fell in love with it completely!

If there is one thing that none of the other versions had, it was the sweetness of this adaptation. Honoka, just 15 years old, did a great job making an adorable Kotoko. Who at no point is annoying (plus it's amazing how the director even took into account every hairstyle Naoko did to Kotoko in the manga)

Yuki, for me, is the best Irie of all the adaptations. Not too cold, cruel, or mean. Yuki could really convey with a few gestures how he was falling in love with Kotoko.

And the rest of the cast were also very good. Overall, I loved this drama so much and the great chemistry that Yuki and Miki had despite their huge age difference, that I can't really be objective lol

Special mention to Kin chan: He really was the best and his work was impeccable.

If you want to enter this world I recommend that you start with this adaptation ♡
