Netflix has ordered a film version of the Japanese novel, Sakura no you na boku na koibito

The book's translation (apologies that I couldn't fit it all in the title) is, My Dearest, Like a Cherry Blossom.

I've not read the book but a quick online search tells me that it's a romance, with romantic master producer, Kei Haruna, leading the project.

Aren't they the best kind of romance?

Rom-coms are neither romantic nor funny.
