Zenra Meshi ( Naked Dinner ) Review on Ep 1-2

I've been quite a watcher of Japanese BL shows, especially since I'm intrigued by their language ( also an anime fan ), their soft yet appealing storylines and charming acting. Eventhough the stories don't dig deep much for their less number of episodes, I still find them quite interesting.

This time, I've started watching Naked Dinner, especially because of Goto Yutaro, who has also played in The Man who Defies the World of BL, and Cherry Magic. But, overall, I was excited due to the plot and their first encounter snippet from the official trailer.

Below, I've addressed the things I've liked and disliked about the show so far.

LIKES

1. Cinematography

So, when I watched the first episode, that one thing that significantly caught my eye was the cinematography of this show. Needless to say, you'd realize that it's beautiful and relaxing aesthetically, and the setting of the show is artistic. Starting from the scenarios of the old town of grandma's house, to the wonderful visual feast of the cooking of various recipes; it was oddly satisfying to watch, as if I've been travelling and eating like Ichijou, vicariously ( not by being naked, not thAt tho )

The soft tone of the show is truly appealing - I'd recommend this show if you're up for a full visual sensationalism, and that's it. From the food, grocery stores, to the office and the furnishings at home - I adored the way the cinematic effects were added here, portraying the Japanese or Global cuisine, topped with Japanese culture. The house at grandma's is like nostalgia, which brings out a poignant warmth in the show, as well.

2. Familial Bond

I really adored how the relationship of Ichijou and his grandma was being portrayed. From what I've seen so far - the invisible thread that is connecting all the plot holes, is Ichijou's grandma. Eventhough she has passed away, her role is the most prominent one in the entire show, atleast till these 2 episodes. It was a creative shot to bring back memories of Ichijou's childhood, when he opened the boxes of his kid days, and saw so many stuff. It felt sweet and it hit home, reminding me of my childhood toys, books and other things.

The character of Mahiro is okay-ish, eventhough I felt awkward and was freaking out about what was he doing in Ichijou's grandma's house. Slowly, the show cleared up that Mahiro is the grocery guy and the one who taught his grandma different international recipes, so she can travel through tasting, similar to the promise she made with Ichijou. However, I still find it quite suspicious about their development in the show, but again maybe it will get better as the show proceeds.

DISLIKES

1. The Chemistry

The acting of the male leads is pretty decent, I agree. However, when it comes to the chemistry between those two, I find something's off. I don't know what it is, or how it is but I kind of find that they might be a little too stiff with one another. Okay, not that but eventhough we have just started on the show - the rapport between the leads are not in synchronicity. However, let's hope that this will improve more as the show progresses, because there's 12 episodes in total - so plenty of room to cover up with elegance.

So, eventhough there's a few flaws already coming up, I'm curious about what these actors would surprise us with next, especially with such a plotline. Eventhough I'm not very impressed initially, I'd try to watch the entire thing, unless it gets worse for any reason. But, I hope the story and their chemistry would take a nice turn, because the plot and the cinematography has a lot of potential.

Ok lovelies, listen up Last month i watched jp Haikyuu stage plays from 5-6 years ago. And even if not all of them are fully published and translated, i fell for every stage, and all of the cast must be protected and supported!😭 Anyhow, yesterday, some interesting bl series caught my eye. It's quite simple romance, there's food, there's big city and a countryside. Very relaxing and peaceful. Adorably funny. There's my gorgeous boy - Goto Yutaro in the main role, so i was interested. But the second main guy...seemed familliar...i thought i was going crazy a bit, bc of how much i loved the Haikyuu stages, and maybe, i'm seeing faces... BUT I WAS NOT! I CHECKED! it's him! Kondo Shori! The Kuroo of your dreams!😩👌💗 This man. This beautiful dancer, is playing in bl story😳 He is so good at acting! Tall, handsome, with big dark eyes, with cute wrinkles around them!😩 The chemistry between main characters is so lovely😫💗AND I'M NOT EVEN MENTIONING THE SIZE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTORS😱🤪💗but not only that…in this story, Kondo's character has an interesting trait😏 let's just say...if you want to see, a beautiful dancer, tastefully eating his stress away...while being fully undressed...WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU STILL DOING HERE!??
