★Avg. rating

What the "special" boy longed for was my "ordinary" life. A live-action adaptation of a novel by Shiomi Natsue, author of "Till We Meet Again on the Lily Hill," starring Hara Nanoka and Sakuma Ryuto (ACEes). Eiko is a high school girl who sees herself as completely ordinary. In contrast, Mahiru seems special in every way: a member of a popular idol group and the most admired student at school. As they grow closer, Eiko discovers a devastating past he has never revealed to anyone. A moving story of two souls connected by a bond far more precious than romance.
