    Unique Context

    In first I thought it's gonna be boring but it was something different something that I always wnated to see in series and movies.

    The story was good and I've never seen a series with lots of unique and pretty details!

    I was expecting the same story context but this was really unique.

    The series over all was so cute omg I'm in love with the story.

    Japan's LGBT Gem 🌸

    Call Me by No Name completely caught me off guard, in the best way possible. I went in expecting something soft and cute (which it totally is!), but I didn't expect it to wreck me emotionally too.

    This is the first Japanese LGBT series that truly hit home for me. It's warm, tender, and has so many small, lovely moments that made me grin nonstop. The way the characters grow close feels so real and intimate, like watching something gentle bloom. But then... the conflict hit, and wow. I was shocked. My heart genuinely dropped.

    The two lead actresses were phenomenal. So natural. So raw. They carried every scene with grace and feeling, and I'm honestly still thinking about them.

    This series isn't loud or flashy, it's quiet, emotional, and so beautifully made. It'll stay with me for a long, long time. Bravo to everyone involved. You created something really meaningful.
