1. Beach Boys / ビーチボーイズ

Kaito (Takenouchi Yutaka) is a top corporate ace that suffers a burnout after an incident at work that he takes a vacation at the same inn where he decides to quit his job and work there with Hiromi.
Makoto (Hirosue Ryoko) is a high schooler whose parents have divorced and she is left in the care of her grandfather who is the inn's owner. She find her life more vibrant since the duo arrives.
It's a story of three individuals, each with their own baggages of life, wondering what the future holds for them as they try to make the best of the present, which they know won't last forever.

2. Long Vacation / ロングバケーション
Sena (Kimura Takuya) is an aspiring pianist who struggles to achieve his dreams while working as a piano teacher and gets look down by his students who thinks he has no music skills.
Hayama (Yamaguchi Tomoko) is freelance model who struggles to find modeling opportunities as she grows older and her life turned upside down after she got dumped by her fiance.
The two end up living in the same apartment with affordable rent as they try to make sense of their lives and decides to take it as a "long vacation" from life to enjoy the present instead of worrying.

3. Love Generation / ラブジェネレーション
Teppei (Kimura Takuya) is creative designer who got transferred to the sales department and struggles to adapt to the different work scope and rigid corporate setting and working environment.
Riko (Matsu Takako) is an office clerk working in the sales department who begins to get attracted to him but realises that he already have his eyes on someone he could never call his own.
By the time Teppei realises he had fallen for Riko whom he had spent a lot of time with and grew comfortable with, she was already set for an arranged marriage in her hometown.
It's a story of two individuals who are confused by love, each unsure if the feelings they have for each other are really love or just loneliness that yearns for each other's company in life.

90s J-Dramas just hit different, with the air of nostalgia, memorable songs, relatable life stories, characters with strong chemistry and perfect comedy timings. They make you smile and teary eyed.

Sara and Kurumada Minisode Thoughts
So I just played both minisodes and have to spout my thoughts somewhere. Spoilers for YTTD below, the new minisodes ofc but also anything up to 2-2 (I’ve played up to 3-1B but only stuff up to 2-2 ended up being relevant to the post really)
I’ll start with Kurumada’s because I have more thoughts on Sara’s than his
I love my boy Kurumada. One of my favorites of the dummies (alongside Mai and Anzu). And getting to see his idol and his journey through boxing was great! Couldn’t find anything lore-wise that was interesting, but loads of great character moments of my guy. Beating up the guy who sent Kuboshi to retirement was so satisfying, and realizing Kurumada was basically shunned from the boxing world now was so sad.
Just a great little story, not much to say.
NOW SARA’S ON THE OTHER HAND
Okay so there are actually two endings to this one: normal and red. I’ll start with the normal end.
First, that opening cutscene of the email between Kai and Sara’s dad. Most of it is text we’ve seen before, but I find it interesting that Kai could tell Sara wants some space from her dad. He decides that’s too much and deletes it, but the fact that he noticed in the first place is interesting nonetheless.
The little minigame was pretty fun imo, but then again I love most of yttd’s minigames. Plus Sara’s different opponents were interesting given we know some of them. Opponents 4-6 are Anzu’s friend from her minisode, Ursheen from Samurai Yaiba, and Shin respectively. Pretty interesting that Sara + Joe and Shin have apparently already met. Although it’s possible that wasn’t actually Shin, as I could see it being Midori in disguise. No way to prove either way, but it’s interesting to think about.
Joe was amazing the whole way through and I love and miss him. And that comment about his dad being dead, and Joe barely having any memories of him (implying Joe was very little when his dad died) makes the “Mr Policeman is Joe’s dad theory” stronger than ever.
As for the normal ending, we got to see Ryoko! Seeing the ever so famous Ryoko x Joe date was very wholesome and I almost cried at the end with Ryoko being worried about Sara and Joe and wondering if she’ll even see them tomorrow.
And then there’s the red ending. Holy shit the red ending. A presumably post Joe’s death Sara wonders if things could’ve been different. She ponders about a world where Joe is voted and he and Sara escape, leaving everyone else to die. It’s reminiscent of the massacre ending (aka lesbians ending), with Sara being horrified and Joe/Nao trying to comfort her. But then we cut back to current Sara who, as it turns out, often worries if she might drag those she’s close to into some sort of darkness. The fact that she has this worry, even if she considers it irrational, makes me wonder. Is it because of Kai that she’s worried (at this point she thinks he’s just a random stalker)? Or does she have a hunch that her family is not as it seems? No way to know yet, but very cool to think about
Wow that was a lot of thoughts. I kinda just rambled but hopefully some of it was interesting lol. Can’t wait to see what others have to say on these in the coming weeks!
