My Cuteness Is About to Expire!? - Ore no Kawaii wa Mousugu Shohikigen!?-S1E9

Marryat Kosuke (Yamada Ryosuke) works in the sales department of a beer company and has experienced success all his life due to his cute looks. Sanada Izumi (Yoshine Kyoko) is a shy introverted researcher who for personal reasons is transferred to the department. One day a stranger approaches Kosuke and tells him his cuteness has an expiration date and his future will soon change because of this. At first he does everything he can to retain his looks but becomes sidetracked when he realises he may have feelings for this aloof fellow worker. With ten thirty minute episodes it is soon completed and I found it an easy watch. Actors and cast are good enough to hold your attention as each episode gently progresses.

After watching the trailer and after seeing the promotional posters, I honestly thought "My cuteness is about to expire" (yeah that's the literal title lol) was going to be one of those overtly cheesy and cringey Japanese romance drama... well, I was wrong. I really had fun with this one as it had the right amount of comedy and romance, it's also been a while since I've watched an office-setting series. The main leads had butterfly-inducing chemistry and I really liked that it was a sunshine x raincloud pairing... just the romance trope I'll never get tired of. Glad to have checked this one out on Viki.
