Ayuko Tsukahara's 1st Kiss is a beautifully layered romance, using a simple time travel mechanic to tell a story of grief & a rekindling of a marriage gone wrong. Blending a nice amount of humour with the right amount of Asian melodrama, its a captivating watch through & through. pic.twitter.com/mjFOSeuuJX
