I LOVED THIS MOVIE SO MUCH!!!
Okay, no, I haven't read the manga before watching this. So I was able to enjoy the movie without any expectations. (I tried reading the manga after watching the movie though!)

Let's talk about what I didn't like in the movie. Actually, I'm a sucker for the student-teacher trope (oh how I love Close Range Love and Sensei), so I decided to watch this in 2017. However, I didn't like the character of Shishio sensei. It was so obvious that he was trying to get closer to the female lead, in a different way. Like, who gives you a nickname out of nowhere? And given the situation (that a teacher like him shouldn't fall in love with his student), I just think he wasn't thinking and acting his age.

For the things that I liked about the movie, there's quite a lot. First would be the story and flow of the film. It was very lighthearted and fun, it's a perfect thing to watch if you want to relieve some stress and just have a good free time. It's your typical school setting, so of course some things are going to be childish. But they're not annoying at all, so it's fine! I love the character development of Nekota Yuyuka! The way their friendship blossomed and the way they tried to be as best of a friend as they could be for each other, was so cute and sweet to me. Mamura is very adorable! Like really, really adorable. He always made me want to protect him! His character was so sweet.

The setting and background were great. I don't remember much about the music, but since I didn't hate it, it was probably okay lol.

Watch out for the ending! It was perfect ♡
