The Drudgery Train offers a quirky blend of comedy and drama, revolving around Kanta, a high school dropout with an undeniable charm and a knack for rebellion. It’s set against a backdrop of small-town life, giving it this laid-back, regional vibe that feels refreshing. Shoji, the kind-hearted provincial, balances Kanta's wildness, leading to some genuinely heartwarming moments as they both stumble through the awkwardness of young love. The pacing is a bit uneven, which might put some off, but it kind of works here, reflecting the chaos of their lives. The performances have this raw, unpolished quality that feels authentic, and while the practical effects are minimal, it's the chemistry between the leads that really stands out. Definitely distinct in its approach to coming-of-age stories.
