If you loved Hibiki, try My Teacher, My Love

What My Teacher, My Love is
So this is what we’ve come to: fate unfolds over discounted beef bowls. A diligent student, convinced a substitute teacher is her soulmate, declares her feelings with the subtlety of a fire alarm. The film somehow makes cafeteria romance feel like a public service announcement.
