Synopsis

edit

Asuka Nakamachi was a high school teacher with the dream of becoming a flower-like teacher who can cheer up anyone, but something caused her to quit her job. After that, she moved in with her older sister Yūri and helped her out with the food wagon she runs. One day, when Yūri and Mitsuo Mitsutani become engaged, Asuka decides to become independent and applies for a job as a dormitory mother, listed as "a job to support young people full of potential". However, it turns out to be the dormitory of 8LOOM, a seven-member boy group that debuted but does not sell well. Moreover, the leader of the group is her former student Dan Sagami.

Reception

edit

Tsubasa Honda's acting was panned by critics. Upon the release of the first episode, the hashtag "TsubasaHondaSucksAtActing" (本田翼演技下手) trended in Japan on Twitter.[55] Josei Jishin named I Will Be Your Bloom as the most disappointing drama of 2022 in part due to Honda's acting.[56]
