Yup, pretty pictures, nice camera angles, interesting themes and characters that had just about an ounce of personality, but that ending was like falling into a pit leading to something substantial and dangerous, but landing on cushiony foam with a soft thud.

Show was nice, but really slow, and i'm the guy that likes slow moody pieces.

Did finish this one, and my overall take on it is pretty similar to Jeremy's. I was slightly positive on it overall, but not sure if I would recommend it.

This was a very artsy, slow-burn, romance exploring two people who didn't understand or frankly rejected love finding it together in one of the most common gimmick romance plots of all time.

I have to say I did become invested in the relationship even if the two leads were so clinical, to an unnatural degree, and the resolution to their relationship was kind of lukewarm.
