Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for people who love a good growing-up story and manga readers. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Liked To All the Boys I've Loved Before? This is a good next one. Made in the anime tradition: bold, emotional and willing to go dark.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Breezy, at 2 hr 3 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Chinese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.

Yuan Xiangqin, a high school student, is deeply in love with Jiang Zhishu, her schoolmate. He rejects her, only for them to live together when the house that she resides in collapses.
