    How could this be missing? It fits perfectly, except it features two male leads. It's so good, so awesome! My absolute favorite! It has an ensemble cast, and even the side couples are so sweet. Once you get through the early stages, the later episodes where they understand each other's feelings (something is resolved) become incredibly sweet and enjoyable. The beginning is a bit twisted, you could say that, but it's still ongoing. I actually hope it stays on air so I can keep reading! [Heart][heart]
