Osore (2024)

Great but left me wanting more

Osore is a very decent drama, although it has left me wanting more, due to the ending. It's one of those dramas which has a difficult-to-follow story for the majority of the drama until everything all clicks into place and makes sense. In 'Hollywood' terms, it's like the Transformers: don't think too critically, just enjoy the action and have a good time! So in that kind of way, this was almost perfect. However, the story did have a few issues; issues in which I think could have been saved if the run time were longer and had allowed for some character development.

Regarding the acting/cast aspect, phenomenal. I do not watch many J-Dramas at all, but I was seriously impressed with the performances here, especially by the FL (Riko) and the two MLs (not described as main roles on MDL but I'm talking about Takaki Yuya and Kasahara Hideyuki, although I understand why they are not attributed as main roles). I have become instant fans of all the cast, but especially of these three aforementioned talents. The OST, too, was also just simply phenomenal. I am already planning on listening to the OST in my spare time.

The rewatch value is pretty decent for the score I usually give a 'rewatch value', although it would have been higher if the ending was more satisfying. However, with all being said, I do strongly recommend that you watch Osore.
