The Imperfectly Successful Startup
A thousand points for the way they portrayed the journey from zero to hero with their startup. Portraying everything out into the screen gives the perfect reality check needed about startups. Let's be honest, many don't survive such races with the 'bigger players' in the field. Startups get taken over and crushed, even about that, they gave us a glimpse of that part in the evening. But the way our leads kept fighting their battle till the end without giving up is so damn satisfying.

The Toe Curling Romance
There is barely a moment of physical intimacy, despite that, the nerve-wracking chemistry between Haru and Kirika is undeniable. "Their eyes speak louder than words." They are both the prime example. And the way it is so beautifully captured.... one of a kind that leaves you craving for me. I have heard people saying he/she is stubborn, I want to show them this is what stubborn means. The Perfect Stubborn Couple.

The Acting 😌
•Haru, is a cunning beautifully drafted liar. This was so perfectly put out, he's smart, cunning and calculative moves and keeps on adding the surprise element every episode. There was no better person to portray him than Meguro Ren. In the first episode, he surprised me with the perfect transition while switching languages, and the way his eyes spoke when he was watching Kirika through the glass of the building spoke volumes. I knew then choosing this was a wise idea.
•Gaku, the sweet intelligent kindhearted fighter. It was his belief in Haru that gave him strength initially, but the success fueled him with a lot more confidence even though it is too slow and the present scenes where they show him as the president shows the growth. One of the reasons we need next season, to see him completely confident with his decisions.
•Kiriko, she ATE and left NO crumbs, her moves, her wardrobe, her shoes and her eyes. She's an Icon. From the moment she marks Haru and Gaku in the interview to the moment she walks up to support rebuilding Trillion Games, every moment she is on screen she will make you question your thoughts about the situation and surprise you with an even more stunning move.
•Takahashi, the perfect impression of honesty. The first and foremost decision which I felt was the best by Haru and Gaku was hiring her. Her character growth was the best among all of them. She grew confident with her honesty and strength.
