A Message On A Desk, A Love Mix Up - and the best surprise of a teen movie!
I am currently on a Japanese teen movie streak. It started out from a moment of nostalgia but obviously now I am traveling down the rabbit hole. Momentum still ongoing. Huh. 🤷🏻♀️ 🤣🤣🤣And I am a bit giddy at the moment by how good this movie was! (The level of wow reminds me of “10 Things, I Hate About You”)
Yes. It has all the stereotypical elements of a run of the mill teenage romance.
But perfectly executed with warmth, depth and wit. The main characters are all flawed but oh so relatable and easy to love.
While predictable, the storyline still has some unexpected twists towards the ending and delivers some underlying wisdom without being in the face about it.
Fluffy. Wholesome. Entertaining. Likable. Excellent music choices to strengthen the vibe of the story part or even bring the plot to the next stage. How the songs got used reminded me of “Perks of Being A Wallflower” (Great movie, too).
This teen romance deserves its high rating.
Highly recommended! 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

cute romance movie <3
For a relaxed romance film, this one is a great choice! The movie is adorable, especially with the perfectly cast male lead – his looks are spot on. The chemistry between the leads feels natural, progressing from friends to lovers without any forced moments. I watched it twice, still amazed by the unexpected plot twist. Plus, I appreciated that they didn't portray the friend negatively after discovering the female lead's pretense.While the plot is predictable with the inevitable conclusion of the main characters ending up together, the narrative skillfully balances themes of friendship, ongoing life, and personal growth. To enhance the experience, additional scenes depicting the characters after their confession would be appreciated.

ADORABLE highschool romance that requires your attention to fully enjoy it
So m.y review might be abit weird, because for me this movie wasn't near a 9 for the first 45min of it, and that's not because the movie was bad but because I wasn't really paying attention to it.. I was feeling secondhand embarrassment and cringing because I never really recieved the right signal until way later.The moment things hit me the movie's atmosphere changed drastically! I was drawn in a sea of cuteness and loveliness washing away everything and leaving me with nothing but fluff inside.
I must also note, that this is a really good romance where it stood its grounds without the need of comedy which isn't something I'm used to nor do I like to watch usually.

Tugs at the heartstrings
The basic premise is a misunderstanding, which-- I know, I know-- everyone seems to be tired of "these kinds of stories." But the acting in this (especially the ML) was SOOOO well done. This is a perfect example of a tired premise done perfectly, proving that nothing is ever really old/boring if it's done right.The FML took me some getting used to, but I warmed up to her once I understood her social anxiety better. Poor kid. Anyway, this was ADORABLE and so good and gave me lots of butterflies. Loved it.
Shoutout to her best friend and the positive representation of female relationships.

it's different from other hischool drama
I love this couple and the story was sooo good..i was expecting a normal story but it turned out soo good ..💝💝💝i am satisfied with the story and this cute couple 😁 They have put a very good twist in the movie. I like its story concept very much. our secret diary movie is really a movie worth watching. There is no boring part and the other characters were very cute, everyone's character was very beautiful..........⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am totally satisfied with it. I have watched many high school dramas and now this one is on my list as my favorite drama.💝Was this review helpful to you?
Here we go again...
Another one with a spineless no opinion girl who just keeps her head down and nods if someone ask something to her or from her. I wish the heroine had more self esteem and knew her worth rather than needing a knight in shining armor to come and make her see sense. We are long past that plot now in 2024. It may have worked a decade ago and my teenage self might have devoured those shenanigans but this plot and characters didn't work for me.The ending epilogue was cute, I wouldn't deny that. The rest all of the movie was just meh... If anyone who likes a secret school romance with a popular guy and a mute wallflower (sort of) go for this movie. It would scratch your itch a bit.
Rating: 1/10

Nada melhor que um bom clichê para aquecer o peito
Eu sou a pessoa mais suspeita para comentar sobre, mas não há nada que eu goste mais do que clichês bem feitos, e "Our Secret Diary", cumpre muito bem com isso. Há leveza nas ações da história de maneira que você não sente as horas do filme sendo passadas, ainda mais com a fotografia gostosa que passa bem está "vibe" de juventude. O dilema de uma personagem que quer agradar tanto a todos que parece privar-se também me interessou bastante, ainda mais quando o protagonista masculino, uma beldade convenhamos, parece perceber tal. A troca de mensagens por páginas de um caderno qualquer também me encanta por tamanha fofura, na verdade, não teve um momento do filme que eu não morri de amores. Tudo parecia perfeito para seu propósito, e isso me alegra muito, afinal, fora uma luta para achar tal programa, e se eu odiasse ficaria arrasada!Was this review helpful to you?

Um romance fofo e leve, muito bom para se assistir para passar o tempo!
Primeiramente, gostaria de elogiar a atuação da protagonista! Ela fez um papel muito bom sobre uma personagem introvertida, tímida e que tem dificuldade de se expressar! Ela simplesmente deu de tudo e é possível sentir tudo que a FL sente, passa e pensa porque a atuação é ótima!Por ser um filme, a história é bem rápida! Eu gostaria que pudesse ser um pouco mais longo e que mais dos personagens fosse explorado! Mas ainda assim, foi algo bom para se ver pela madrugada! Um enredo sem dramas, sem triangulo amoroso e que conta uma história fofa de um romance adolescente!
É um famoso clichê colegial, mas para quem gosta, ele tem seu valor.

Life Note
Une petite review pour un film très feel good et donc très nécessaire pour 2024, si vous ne l'avez pas encore vu en 2023. Avec les plateformes, il est devenu tellement plus simple et légal de voir les adaptations en live action de shojo. Et celui-ci est particulièrement réussi. Sakurada Hiyori colle toujours bien à ses personnages d'ados ou post-ados en difficulté de communication. Même si, ici, c'est l'amour qui la fait bafouer. Très juste et touchante dans son interprétation, nul doute que la cible de cette œuvre arrivera grandement à s’identifier. Takahashi Fumiya est lui-même touchant, même s'il commence à être un peu à côté de son âge supposé pour le rôle. Alors que Hiyori-chan paraîtra encore quelques années avoir 16 ans, lui, doit faire un effort supplémentaire dans son jeu pour en paraître 17 et il y parvient bien mieux que Sota Ryosuke qui en avait 24 durant le tournage du film. Mais étant assez bons acteurs tous les deux, avec un Takahashi Fumiya bien meilleur et sensible que dans Fermat Ryouri tout cela passe parfaitement. Sans dévoiler l'intrigue on vibre avec ces ados qui vivent leurs premiers émois, même si la relation avec Hiyori-chan et son senpai en classe de 2de peut un peu faire froid dans le dos par le jeu de psychopathe délivré ici. Tout est classique dans cette année très School Life. Les examens, les fiches d'orientation, la litre de déclaration et le journal intime toujours très utilisé par les ados japonais nous rappellent qu'on est dans un Shojo. Mais un très bon, à hautement recommander pour ceux qui veulent une histoire assez réaliste et bien réalisée. Pas de réels méchants et peu d'enjeux dramatiques ici, mais un film qui donne encore un peu plus envie de vivre comme un ados au japon à nos ados d'ici. Attention, le film comporte quand même quelques éléments de pression scolaire qui pourraient choquer nos élèves les plus sensibles au travail à fournir.Was this review helpful to you?
