Do you think, if your heart races whenever you’re around someone, does that mean you have feelings for that person? Even if it was never part of your plan. If there was no feeling, your heart wouldn’t react.
but Hira x Kiyoi captured me in a vice grip a few years back. The drama completely took me over. Because they are that one couple that go beyond all stereotypes and boundaries that exist in reality, they’re just two people in a love so deep it takes a while to understand how deep it is and what they actually did for each other. Two soulmates that were meant to be, that heal each other’s broken pieces. It would be near impossible for any other fictional couple to surpass Hira x Kiyoi with the level they are at because they broke too many barriers. The author Nagira Yuu and Director Mai Sakai truly took advantage of it being fictional and just ran with them, while still making them easy to get attached to. If you told me a while back I’d become obsessed with Utsukushii Kare I would have laughed. But here we are, and they’ve won all these awards. That’s how elite they are.
