Coffee And Vanilla

The character does what i think.

Luv this style.

The best series i have ever wached.

This drama was a mix of 50 Shadesof Gray and 91/2 weeks thrown in with a little typical romance novel love story. I loved it and it didn't hurt that the hero reminded me of Suga from BTS. It was cute and binge worthy.

I loved this show. It was sexy and romantic, the characters are captivating, and the story kept me needing more as each episode ended. My only complaint is that it's one of Japan's short 10-episode shows, but it was a very enjoyable 3 1/2 hour binge.

The female lead's innocence? Cute at first, but it quickly crosses the line into "how is she this naïve?" territory. At times, it feels more like stupidity than innocence, and it can get frustrating to watch.

Watching her let every single man around her make decisions for her is beyond frustrating. At one point, you just want to scream, "Girl, make up your own mind!" Her complete lack of agency really drags the show down, and it's hard to get behind a character who can't seem to think for herself.

And let's not forget Dori Sakurada's role. Don't get me wrong, the guy's talented, but he's totally overplaying his role here to the point where it becomes uncomfortable to watch. It's so dramatic, so extra, that I honestly had to pause a few times just to breathe.

I still watched the whole series. Despite all the ridiculousness and eye-roll moments, Coffee and Vanilla is one of those guilty pleasure shows that's just so easy to binge-watch. It's dumb, it's cheesy, but yet a guilty pleasure.

This is my first j drama. It doesn't look like forced romance. He always gives her time to get comfortable, cares about her, and respects her decisions. Dori and Haruka look so cute together. Dori as Hiroto is something else and their sweet moments give butterflies. Love the ending!
