i dont think a lot of people know about 'orange' but it could be seen as a bit cliché. its a story with a bit of a twist and is a tear jerker.
I answered a similar question like this not too long ago. Here's the answer to it -

rather than normal teacher-student romance, this one deals with the problems that comes after it, realistically.

at a glance, normal teachet-student story but goes in much deeper & darker than that.
