I waited as long as I could for a possible dub, but after contacting Crunchyroll and learning that not every show can receive one, I decided it was time to watch. It was absolutely worth it. The series is powerful and deeply emotional from multiple perspectives. It explores difficult conversations, genuine love, strong friendship and moments of exceptional parenting. Many beloved characters from previous adaptations make their return, adding even more heart and depth. The story begins beautifully with a short side narrative that hints at another relationship I hope will be explored further, then continues into the touching and authentic connection between Sasaki and Miyano.Their journey feels real, allowing the viewer to experience every moment with them.

With a seamless transition into a new season, one can only hope that what awaits this wonderful couple is another chapter filled with the same warmth and sincerity.
