YUJ-063 - Days spent indulging in a relationship with an ex-girlfriend we hadn't seen in years, where we both had current partners, confessing 'I like you' while desiring each other, a relationship more than friends but less than lovers. Kamiki Aya

*As Aya says at the end of this piece, this work physically represents the fact that it takes time to realize what is truly important. Aya's boyfriend was said to be a "good property" by those around him, but things that Aya thought were good were things that Aya didn't like (Japanese food), things that Aya didn't like (Japanese food), things that Aya didn't like, and things that didn't go well together without Aya's confirmation, and when Aya started to feel like she was losing her mind, she remembered the past. On the other hand, Tatsu, his ex-boyfriend, got a new girlfriend and things were amicable, but although he started dating Aya as a sexual partner, old memories returned and he broke up with his current girlfriend. In the end, what is important to the two is the feeling of ``mutual love,'' and although it takes time for them to realize this, the work makes me think that the goal (marriage) is to never let go of that feeling.

The acting is so natural and incredibly good. I especially love these kinds of bittersweet romance stories. The longer drama portion at the beginning is also really engaging and I can watch it endlessly. I really hope they continue to appear in this kind of genre. Definitely a keeper!
