It's complicated matters!!

On the whole it definitely deserve much much more better then a 1 rating. Perhaps we should look deeper into the story. It started wif Toji dating with Nao, and then, Makoto, Toji's ex came into picture as a working partner. Like many had said, it seems that makoto had been the one who dumped Toji and now, wants him back. But if we look deeper, we'll realised that right from the start of the 1st episode, we know that Toji wasn't really that in love with Nao. We can tell from the acting that Nao was the one who is taking a more active role in the relationship. Like eg, taking the initiative to kiss Toji, pressing him for a summer holiday.While all along Toji had been quite passive and most of the time it feels like he is juz going along with Nao. Then Makoto came along. It's obvious that they both haven got over each other. Having the same handphone accessory and such. Yes, Makoto was the one who dumped Toji, but she still love him. Like that scene in the elevator with Makoto asking Toji to think what he said before that made her re-evaluate their relationship. U know, like many relationship, sometimes, people often said things that they don't mean. A form of reverse psychology. Because they feel insecure about the relationship, that's y they try to test it. In this case, Makoto broke up with Toji, with the hope that he will ask for a patch, that he will go find her, in a way, proving his love for Makoto, but he didn't.That's his character flaws. so when Makoto turn up in his life again, he's in a dilemma. he had to choose between following his heart or taking responsibility in his commitment with Nao. In any relationship, it always take 2 hands to clap. Makoto, Toji both have their fault and Nao is the most innocent victim of their relationship. As Nao truly loves Toji. The story ends with Toji going with his heart, ending up with Makoto.The matters of the heart is always hard to say, no one is really able to take the full blame. Relationship is one complicated matters.


The show is good with it's solid cast. Definitely worth the time to watch.
