Yeah I've noticed that too, she was brilliant in Switched as her main role. Hope her agency would look beyond her type casting.

Poster looks promising, not sure about the film tho. We will see

If you'd watched the drama you know the answer

Search up 'Adam uni' on Facebook. Click on his page and the film should be on his posts.

Yeah, was a bit disappointed with that aspect however it was shown in the cinema in Japan and Hong Kong. I guess that's why they down-played the affectionate moments. At least we still have the show .

The build-up until the middle of the film was a bit slow. Things started to get interesting after the festival scene, the climax of the film is definitely the best part.

Was expecting more, I guess I forgot that Maki and Haruta don't have many moments together which is a shame, I couldn't find much difference in this story direction compared to the series, it did have some character growth tho with Haruta learning to take more initiative.

Overall - Acting 9/10 Story 8/10

Yess, finally! Knew it would be around this time since it was released on March 12th

The bro of the author who created the manga lol

Well damn, the ratings went down so fast lol

For only 30 mins? I wonder how that's going to work hmmm o.o

Yes, it is sad however I found the message to be inspiring. One was about to give up while the other was alienating himself from the crowd. They both helped each other and in the end, it paid off.

Although it was not explicit or whatever if you pay close attention to the body language of them both you could kind of notice they care a lot for each other.

Many may be disappointed it was not what they were expecting however it was a good film despite its tragic elements.

Probably after march 2020, after the DVD is released in Japan. Japan is strict with copyright .

I have a feeling they might be releasing it late cause in the sky (alternate series) was just airing lol

It felt really last minute haha. Considering this is an alternate universe I don't care much.

I don't understand the ending haha I guess they wanted to change things up and give Kurosawa a happy ending.

Although I'm all for Haruta getting together with the other main characters, I kind of feel bad for Hina (Lady character). She barely gets screen time to be invested or interested in from the viewers.

This episode got me thinking Haruta should read the mood but that's part of his character so it can't be helped. I'm not sure about the next episode, why showrunners would you introduce a new character one episode before it ends lol.

Yeah, honestly their twitter and Instagram basically gives away the whole film haha. It feels like I've already watched it although I haven't. They have books which are the movie guides so might get that instead...

I searched up on Japanese websites and I don't think they have the dvd released yet either. I could be wrong but it wasn't on their official ossan's love website

In episode 4 we get a bit of glimpse of Naruse looking longingly at Haruta after he cheers him up. The camera angle says otherwise., a part of him may know but he might not have realised yet. There are a few parallels of Naruse and Maki.

So far this new series isn't too bad. They had made more improvements to Kurosawa and Haruta's decision-making and they are shown to be outspoken and independent etc.

I do wish the side characters are not treated as 'side' characters. I feel season one and the film handled the side characters very well. There was a sense of relatability to each individual character and they had their own thing going on.

I still haven't seen Love or dead yet and man is it going to feel weird once I see it on my flight to Japan next week :')
