To Heart (1999)

This was a hard drama to rate. Why? Because I felt the main female should have just giving up and moved on! As this is a drama that infuses sport of boxing, I was willing to give it a try. The constant stalker behavior of the poor lead and her unrequited love was kind of sad. There is one point where an antagonistic female character really introduced a whole new leave of sleaze and those moments were really interesting as you wanted to see just how far she would go. I think Fukada Kyoko as Toki and her slightly screeching voice started to wear on me at times because I had to watch to see if they ever got together. Domoto Tsuyoshi as Yuri, I actually have no complaints. Overall, unless you are a fan of either, not sure I can consciously recommend this but if you like unconventional dramas, this one is for you. Not something I would watch again.
