Chastity High

This show is as I mentioned (in my opinion) the Japanese equivalent of Netflix's Sex Education. The soundtrack and use of music to create tension alongside cinematic shots was the highlight of the later episodes of the series for me and I felt this show actually got better as it went on, rather than more boring and messy like alot of jdramas and kdramas tend to do.

All the characters were well thought out and likeable, (aside from some obvious antagonists) and I especially loved how no characters (even the antagonists) were represented as wholly good or bad, they were all morally grey just as reality is. However I didn't feel as though I was watching some gritty and depressing thought provoking peice, it was still a fun and giggly teen romance show.

The reason I didn't give this show a 10/10 is because although I think many diverse issues were covered in this show, there were a few places I found potentially lacking in conviction, as the 'comeuppance' and punishment for certain characters and actions fell flat and lacking, despite this being a potentially more realistic result.

I think most negative reviews of this show come from people who either morally disagree with some aspects of the show, which, in my opinion, does not have to ruin the show as it is not outrageously provocative or in your face. Or, the reviews come from people who were expecting an innocent and sweet romance, like many kdrama and jdramas tend to have, without any sense of reality for our current society.

I would love to see a second season of this show as it very quickly became one of my favourites on Netflix !!
