Hilarious drama! It's so over the top and loud and annoying and you will fall in love with the characters! The story moved quick, probably since there were only 12 episodes. The ending left a lot to be desired, seemed abrupt and unfinished. Overall a fun and funny drama to watch and pass the time.

NAKATSU FOREVER

I suddenly felt like I need to have a good laugh and so I rewatched Hana Kimi (Japanese) after 16 looong years. And guess what? I was still surprised with the over-the-top humor. The comical level is so malala, it’s still incomparable to any romcoms. Oh no, I feel nostalgic rn 🥹 This piece actually ignited my love for Japanese dramas. Having been heavily influenced by its absurdity, I have also penned a few scripts in college inserting the said kind of comedic tone but at the same time balancing it with local wits and kabaliwan of Bob Ong (Whom I’m also a fan of). Well, that’s a fun throwback for me! Hmmm I’m just starting to question my maturity and sense of humor now that I’m 30. Oh crap! 😂 Hey, no judgments to any manga reading and anime loving adults here! 😏

Loved it. Great adaptation from the manga. Maki and Oguri shun were great. I loved all the crazy dorm leaders and dorm activities. Great humor and cuteness.

This J-Drama is a must watch, I think. There are many elements in this drama that reoccurs too much that somehow it makes the whole drama drag.

Though the concept of "girl-pretends-to-be-a-boy" is not a new concept after all, this drama manages to pull-off some neat "cheesy" tricks that would make some fanatics drool. It also managed to clean-out some blurry elements in the Taiwanese version, which helped out the whole version.

The cast of this show, individually, would never surprise anyone. But I must say, once you put the whole ensemble together in the screen, it's almost next to impossible not to be persuaded. I also found Nakatsu's character as somehow the life of the drama - being able to pull-off funny scenes just by doing some weird movements. Though pulling-off humorous scenes was easy for him, most of his serious ones are some of the most memorable scenes. A great character, indeed.

The drama has also created or branded particular scenes just by playing specific background songs. Every viewers would love to jam along as the drama progresses.

There are particular scenes in this show, that you would love to see over and over - but not the whole show. For some of its scenes, losses its' "magic" for some unknown reasons.

In general, the show is good - but not something that you would be thinking in your dreams.

Very funny, great characters, plenty of action so far, hope it keeps up the comedy and gender-bending and doesn't start getting all heavy.

Okay, so I hope this isnt the best version of this drama. I am planning to watch others too but in the mean time, this is what i think of this drama.

I liked that Mizuki was so brave. It inspired me.

Izumi got me to laugh sometimes.

Beauty Dorm Head scared me.

I liked that the hot popular chick wasnt how they usually are( but you will have to see for yourself) ;).

Wish i had seen more kiss scenes.

The worst part is that I wasnt really interested in any other character but Mizuki and Izumi. So when these two werent on the screen I felt bored.

But since the their love story was so interesting to me i just had to know how it went on.

Overall if your interested watch it. If not, well watch something better :) .

I have watch all the "Hana Kimi" versions from Chinese to the remake of "Hana Kimi" in the Japanese version. So far I have to say this version has to be the best out of all of them. Probably because this has to be the closest reenactment of the manga "Hana Kimi". I find all the other versions I've watched may have the main plot down but it's about the way the actors portray the character which I find, is not all the same for every version.

DRAMA SOBRE AMIZADE

Esse foi um dos meus primeiros dramas da vida e ainda é a adaptação de um dos meus favoritos mangás.
É o drama ideal para quem tá procurando um enredo sobre amizade, já que temos desde o início, o desenvolvimento da amizade da Mizuki com todos os meninos da escola e a dinâmica entre eles. Claro que tem um certo foco em romance, mas os tema central continua sendo AMIZADE. É muito lindo como a chega da Mizuki muda o Sano e até o final, ele se transforma em outra pessoa (mais agradável).
Menção honrosa: o Nakatsu é o melhor personagem da obra, é impossível não amar ele ou torcer para que a Mizuki tbm se apaixone por ele.

Uno de los jdramas más graciosos que existen

Al principio me pareció una serie entretenida pero no la estaba maratoneando. Para el quinto capítulo más o menos, empecé a querer ver uno tras otro, tras otro, y cuando me quise dar cuenta había llegado al último, y no quería que se termine. No hubo una razón en particular, sino una suma de cosas: el first lead, que al principio me parecía un ortiva, tiene un cambio muy positivo que hizo que me terminase cayendo súper bien y me empezara a importar su trama; el second lead es todo lo que está bien, es un estallo y aunque al principio no me convencía, es de esos personajes que se hacen querer mucho. Ni hablar de todo el cast secundario, es decir todos los compañeros de campus de Mizuki: ¡este dorama tiene uno de los mejores grupos de personajes secundarios! Me encariñé un montón con ellos.

Si bien hay una trama lineal, que es la historia de Sano y el objetivo de Mizuki de ayudarlo, la serie tiene también un formato episódico, cada capítulo se centra en un asunto que tiene que ver con todo el grupo de compañeros de Mizuki (y el second lead suele estar metido siempre), y esta es definitivamente la mejor parte de la serie, porque estas partes son comedia pura y, por fortuna, tienen tanto tiempo en cámara o incluso más que lo que acontece con la trama principal.

Aparte del humor, la producción es buena, las actuaciones están bien para el tono de la serie y que sea una serie vieja no le afecta en nada, resiste muy bien al tiempo y el final me encantó. Un jdrama sencillo pero hilarante y MUY lindo.

¿Que la vea otra vez dice? ¡LA AMÉ!

Hana Kimi cuenta la historia de Ashiya Mizuki, una chica que viaja a Japón (ella vive en EEUU) para inscribirse en la misma escuela para hombres a la que asiste Sano Izumi, un ex atleta de salto de altura a quien ella admira mucho, con el objetivo de hacer que él vuelva a saltar.

Si la trama les suena de algo, es porque To The Beautiful You (dorama coreano) está basado en el mismo manga que este jdrama, pero les puedo asegurar que en realidad no tienen nada que ver.

Antes que nada tengo que pedirles que ignoren por completo el póster, porque hace que esta serie parezca súper seria y nada que ver, es de las cosas más locas que vi en mi vida (en el buen sentido). Si bien hay un conflicto principal (el de Mizuki y Sano), cada capítulo cuenta con tramas episódicas protagonizadas por el enorme elenco de personajes secundarios, lo que resulta en que todo el tiempo estén pasando cosas exageradas, graciosas y muy bizarras. Real que los capítulos son un 20% de trama principal (que es principal solo por ser lineal) y un 80% de lo que sea que estén haciendo los personajes secundarios (puntazo a favor, porque los llegué a amar a todos con mucha intensidad jaja).

Otra cosa que quiero destacar es que al principio lo que menos me interesaba era todo lo que se relacionaba con Sano, pero la realidad es que con el correr de los capítulos, el protagonista masculino me terminó de gustar (eso no suele pasarme, así que estoy contenta). Y no hablo del second lead porque quiero que lo conozcan ustedes, es todo lo que está bien en esta vida (al igual que los secundarios, a los que no me voy a cansar de alabar, porque incluso los que no tienen ni nombre se roban algunas escenas con lo que hacen en el fondo jaja).

En fin; una serie dinámica, extremadamente graciosa y cero conflictiva (contra todo pronóstico, siendo del 2007, nada me molestó). Tiene personajes buenísimos que es imposible no querer (los vínculos que forman son hermosos y súper creíbles), una protagonista simpática y un ritmo único. Recomiendo x1000.

Este es un drama que vi hace muchos años atrás y hace poco lo subieron a Netflix y lo volví a ver porque la primera vez que lo hice me dejó con buena impresión.

Pocos dramas de verdad me han hecho reír a carajadas como este, la verdad creo que es muuuy raro que me pase eso en un Jdrama hoy en día pero Hana Kimi a pesar de tener una historia muy genérica (chica finge ser chico en una escuela de varones) las situaciones las presentan de forma muy divertida, y una de esas formas es el personaje de Nakatsu (Ikuta Toma), quien yo considero que es el corazón de la historia entera, sin él Hana Kimi no sería Hana Kimi... o hubiera sido un Hana Kimi aburridísimo.

También recuerdo que la primera vez que vi la serie, detestaba a Sano (Oguri Shun) , pero esta última vez la verdad es que no se me hizo nada de eso... tal vez mi fanatismo por Nakatsu (Ikuta Toma) influía o es porque también ya considero ser una espectadora más madura.

Pero no importa que tengas 15, 25, 35... independiente de eso, siento que es un drama escolar nostálgico, sencillo, que se disfruta mucho por su gran contenido de comedia que van de la mano de las actuaciones de talentos como Ikuta Toma. Un drama recomendable de principio a fin, no te vas a aburrir, perfecto para desconectar el cerebro de la realidad para reírte un rato. Y claro, recordar lo bella que es la juventud~


PD. Este drama no necesitaba ningún remake... ¿qué necesidad había de sacar otra versión y en 2011? Obvio estaba destinada al fracaso...
