Kenji Nov 24 2023 3:57 am One of the best dramas with this genre. 10/10

Ryusei Yokohama is indeed more that just a pretty face. After watching him in several movies and dramas (both intentionally and unintentionally) I can confidently say that he never repeated the same character. I mean, there isn't a trace of any character that he played in Seno.

Anne also did so well. I love the cast of this one!

Mizuki Feb 17 2023 4:35 pm I hope it has a season 2. I want them to catch Nariai.

K5 Sep 05 2021 7:47 am I Love the premise of the plot.

Emily Aug 30 2021 2:55 pm yokohama ryusei… to be honest i feel indifferent about this person. his acting is not outstanding at all but has always been good roles.. i dont understand why. it seems he wanna be superior to yamaken. stardust actors are so good accept this one..
