Beautiful, must-watch, truly amazing drama!!
This drama is so beautiful, that I do not know if I have enough words to describe it. It has serious moments, funny moments, romantic moments, and cute moments, it truly is a great story and the actors have done an exceptional job in portraying the character. This drama is sure to be a standout for years to come.
Yashiro and Kenta are childhood friends when Yashiro realizes he has romantic feelings for Kenta. After making 100 shrine visits, Yashiro builds up to courage to confess his feelings to Kenta. Unfortunately, Kenta does not see Yashiro the same as he has only ever dated women but still wants to remain best friends. An accident happens and Yashiro, in the heat of the moment wished that he was a woman so that he and Kenta could be together. The shrine God grants him this wish and his soul is now in the body of another girl, Kagura. Later on, Yashiro in Kagura's body is doing his best to get close to Kenta, as he does not know that Yashiro is in Kagura's body. As Yashiro is getting closer to Kenta, Kenta's ex-girlfriend, Rin, is keeping an eye on the two.
This all plays out in Episode 1 and I will not spoil anything longer as the series does an insanely good job at making the viewers watch on the edge of their seats all throughout. The way the characters' relationships grow steadily is satisfying to watch and I really wish there was more of it as I just love them all so much, even though there are already 8 episodes of 40 minutes. No stone is left unturned, there are no unnecessary side characters that eat up time, and the story is complete in its run time.
The acting of all characters was amazing, Yashiro is natural in his own body and you really feel like he is in Kagura's body when they are two different actors. Kenta is steadfast in his friendship with Yashiro, and as a flirty handsome student, he is truly a treat. Rin is insane, maybe my favorite of the show. She starts off super intimidating with her overly friendly cool and pretty popular girl aura, but you discover the substance really of her character quickly. A wonderful friend, I need her in my life. Lastly, Kagura is friendly and kind, but a little quirky and was seen as a weirdo for most of her life. In the story, she is a kind soul that asks a lot of questions, has big dreams, and has few worries.
Do yourself a favor and watch this as soon as possible. You will not regret it. It has a great mix of BL, GL, bisexuality, and friendship themes, as well as a variety of values that are portrayed. One small regret is that there are no kiss scenes (apart from one in the end which is from a mile away), but as they are high school students in the drama and they are 18 in real life, I can understand it. It's not about the kiss, it's about the feelings and bonds, which you can truly feel (but I do love a good kiss). I am personally looking forward to seeing more from all of the actors and from Japanese BLs in general. Thank you to all the staff and creators of this drama, it truly was extraordinary.
