Having overcome the obstacles that stood between them in high school, Kazunari Hira and Sou Kiyoi have spent the past few years in relative bliss. Living together, they’ve been able to support each other as they learn to navigate the ups and downs of their adult life. But just because life has gotten better, doesn’t mean everything for the happy couple is perfect. Currently, in his fourth year of college, Hira has spent the majority of his free time following Kiyoi around in disguise. While Hira enjoys watching his boyfriend from afar, it has recently begun to dawn on him that with graduation looming, he might need to turn his attention elsewhere. With no part-time job experience whatsoever, Hira is starting to see that his favorite pastime may be doing him a disservice. A fact that only becomes more apparent as his classmates, with their impressive array of work experience, begin to turn their attention toward post-graduation job hunting. Feeling a bit left behind, Hira begins to wonder what it is he wants to do with his life. While Hira struggles at school, Kiyoi continues to work hard in his acting career. As both Kiyoi and Hira learn to deal with some of life’s more harsh realities, will their relationship stand strong, or will they find their bond beginning to crack under the pressures that come with adulthood?
***
After finishing the first season of Utskushii Kare, I realized that the second season has been finished with only four episodes. Since I want to know how Hira and Kiyoi's relationship will be, I tried to watch this second soon as fast as I can.
The Story
Now, Hira is in his senior in the university. It's time for him to decide on his career. But, as we know, Hira got a problem when he has to talk in front of someone else. Therefore, he couldn't pass on some interviews, even though just for a part-time job. In a way, Hira got frustrated because he still couldn't solve his own problem.
Meanwhile, Kiyoi's career in the entertainment industry has been growing. Thanks to his fellow artist from the same agency, Anna, Kiyoi got a chance to have some roles in a drama. Well, you can say that Kiyoi's career become more shining than ever.
Since their confession in the last season, Hira and Kiyoi live together at Hira's house. One thing that I really notice, even though there has been a confession, Hira still sees Kiyoi as someone he couldn't reach. He always feels that his feeling is one-sided. It's impossible for a King like Kiyoi could give attention and care to a pebble like him. Yeah, that what's Hira thought all along.
My Opinion
First, I like how Kiyoi becomes sweeter and care about Hira. I love how Kiyoi actually can help Hira to regain his confidence and also change his perspective of everything. But really, I have to admit that I am really annoyed by Hira. I mean, why has he always said sorry for everything even though he is not false?
Then, I also couldn't bear his self-doubting, moreover about Kiyoi's feelings. I really want to slap him in the face and said, please, open your eyes and mind and realize that Kiyoi also has a feeling for you and it's possible for you to get what you want if you really mean it.
Maybe, Hira's scene that I like is when he dressed up cause Kiyoi asked him to. He looks more proper here xD
In a way, I feel so stressed watching Hira's attitude. Sigh. Thankfully, Kiyoi's presence in this series save my cringes. I love how Kiyoi acts toward Hira and also everyone else. Then, I should admit that Kiyoi is indeed beautiful.
Conclusion
If you want to know about the continuation of Hira and Kiyoi's relationship, please watch this second season. You will find how sweet and cute Kiyoi is here.
7 out of 10 stars for Kiyoi.
Sincerely,
Ra
