Opinion: This ones cute. It’s just starting but I really feel like it’s the new generations “Mars“. I don’t know if it will be as deep or as lasting, but it’s geared that way.

The art is ok. Honestly it doesn’t stand out and it’s quite plain. It isn’t in any way bad just not my favourite.

The plot is kinda cute. I love an “opposites attract”. I don’t often fall for the second male lead but I do like his story. It’s still very surface level drama but it feels like there is more to be revealed.

Final Rating: 4/5
