This is mostly gonna be comments about some historical things I noticed.Its a cute drama but I really thought…
I really appreciate your historical comments. I'm a nerd as well and these are the kinda things I think about whenever I watch something history-related.
I watched her in Todome no Kiss, she was looked so pretty and she can act too! Her minor role in In This Corner of the World was very impactful... and then I found out about the affair...
I loved her so much in Todome no Kiss! The character of Saiko was so tragic but adorable and sympathetic and Mugi portrayed her so well. Gonna have to watch all of her dramas and movies now.
Can we talk about episode 3? It showed that Takauji was STILL a merciless psycho. It didn't matter who Mikoto…
That's why the ending of Todome no Kiss didn't sit right with me. Based on his characterization in the drama, he's basically a twisted pyscho who only needs a trigger to be set off on a murder spree. So how is Mikoto ending up with Takauji a good thing? Why did the main drama frame it that way lol
Some of these stories were so insane but hilarious at the same time. The dark one was so damn dark though. But I'm just happy because I got the happy ending I wanted :)
I LOVED THIS DRAMA SO DAMN MUCH! I haven't enjoyed a drama, from any country, so much in a long time. I finished it all in a day! It had every thing - romance, murder, thriller, suspense, mystery, comedy, corporate intrigue - and it handled every storyline so damn well. I won't lie and say Todome no Kiss had no flaws (it was draggy and repetitive at times and there were some plot holes) but despite those flaws it was engaging and interesting throughout.
The time leap has been done to death in countless movies and TV shows but it felt so fresh here. And especially with the parallel worlds concept and the side stories, you can tell the writers thought everything through. Otaro and Saiko's relationship was honestly sweet and wholesome and both of them acted so well, I'm going to look out for their dramas. I cannot recommend this drama enough, 9/10 from me.
