I Can't Reach You played the high school romance thrope in an ordinary but well acted way. Yamato and Kakeru are childhood friends, and from what I gathered, their relationship was close, and from Yamato's side, maybe there was even a love interest from the start (or at least near there, they are really young when they met). But Yamato is also the star in this couple, handsome and clever, where else Kakeru is more ordinary, and he plays the role of the clown to not let transpire his insecurity. Yamato doesn't see Kakeru in that way, and he really does not understand why Kakeru thinks to be inferior to him, for Yamato, Kakeru is the most perfect being in his world. This is where they got me, the role of the shy and reserved male lead is one of my favorite characters. Anyway, sweet and tender, with HEA. You can see it on Netflix. Heat Level: 2/6.
