Psycho, fantasy, and we like it

Each episode basically reveals new stories. Each story deals with different people in certain social situations.
We see the series through Nanno's eyes.
Nanno, the main character, a mysterious girl with supernatural powers, appears in a different school every episode, where she bonds with a certain person/group of people. [Those people are either bullies, egoists, rapists...]
Nano, which is on the border of a negative and a positive character, reveals every episode some lessons and teaches us about the value of life itself.

A little disappointing

First half of the series was pretty good. Nothing cringe, nothing boring nor unnecessary.
The second half was, I would say unnecessarily long. They made it look all important to the last two episodes
The last episode so useless. All i can think of is that they did not end it well. Thank God there are 2 special episodes which completed the whole story.
But this series is quite average, as for itself.
I would say that the actors played every emotion very well, even though sometimes I was annoyed how they split up every time something negative happened between them. Then they are offended at each other for a while and then, as if nothing happened, they are a happy couple again.

It could have ended with episode 6

They could have a nice student romantic drama if only they ended with episode 6. The whole ep 7 was too tense and overall just too much (based on the fact that each episode went through important matters of life if I put it like this). It could have been poignant to explore more serious topics, but there were just several missteps. I liked how they ended the series in ep 6 and 7th ep was just a plus.
I would make the whole last episode as a special one, maybe a little bit longer, but I definitely wouldn't end a series with it.

Cute but it´s not very longlasting feeling

Very nice and cute story about two coworkers. Maybe a special episode in the future would be great because the story itself was really basic. I feel like if there were maybe more dialogues it would be better. I get that it needed to be basic, cute, and short but that's all it was - basic, cute, and short.
Acting was accurate. The story itself wasn't bad either but I wouldn't call it drama or a series. It was a nice short story, which could be easily portrayed in one film. And I think, that then it would be more acceptable, that the scenario was this light and basic.

I feel like it´s that type like when once you watch it, it loses your interest.

Deep, yet very hartwarming story

The drama is so well filmed. The whole story was perfectly portrayed by the actors, however, I was kind of triggered by those unending crying scenes (they just were there, no spoiling).
If you are planning to watch this drama, it's probably not a secret that it´s overall a pretty sad story. Whether it´s the heart condition problems or the love between the main couple.
Anyway, I liked how they uniquely portrayed every relationship. I mean...it wasn't cringe (mostly parent-child relationships are portrayed like that)

I would highly recommend this show mostly to girls in their teen ages or in their early 20s (close to the characters' age)
P.S. Be ready to laugh, cry, smile, fangirl over the main cast and be ready for everything

They made me cry

I need to say that im not used to writing reviews, but i had to this time.

At first I thought that it will be a basis bromance and at the beginning it low-key looked a bit boring. But now I know that if you really want to experience that full feeling, it was made just right. Actors made a very good job. Both main characters were so believe, as for their role (which both had some traumas and fears).
The way how I started to emphasise with the characters was so strong. The whole gradation of good and bad things was not bad at all.

I want you to know that I cried like a 12 year old while watching episode 9 and the whole last episode was just drying my tears, smiling.

The ending was also very enjoyable, I really recommend watching the series ❤️

It will consume you

The way, how beautifully is the whole series filmed, eddited, and also big applause for the audio quality. I was falling in love more and more by every episode I watched.

I could talk about the perfection of these acting skills all day. From beautiful innocent smiles to those totally perfect teary scenes (especially in the end). The pure romance, love, and understanding which was portrayed by the main couple? Excuse me? Where did they find such good actors? It wasn't an act for me.

Xi Gu's whole backstory with his parents and his school life always gets to me and make me all emotional. It's so touching, as it's opposite to Hao's way of life. I loved the chemistry between them, the height difference, the smiles, emotions, everything was so well pictured.

Also, I can't forget about Sun Bo and Zhi Gang. They looked so cute together that I couldn't help but smile at little Bo. Also, Zhi's smile? Where can I gen one? I loved how they dealt with everything together. And how happy and emotional i got when they finally got Zhi's pa's permission.

For those who came this far and reading this, even if it's labelled as spoilers. Here it comes. Your eyes won't stay dry. Be sure of that. And if not even one tear will slide down your cheek, what kind of monster are you? When I first watched this emotional story, I watched it when it came out. But no longer after that, it may have been 3-4 months, I have watched it all over again in one night. I cried the whole 3 eps in row.

As you see, I'm writing this review after some time, after I binge watched it 2 nights in a row. I needed to buy a new pack of tissues for this. It's definitely different watching it, knowing how it all will end, and just like it's it's even more emotional.

I strongly recommend watching this show more than once. It's so pure, and I assure you that it will leave a strong impact on you.
