My Sept 2025 recommendation

Watch this for my Recommendation Challenge by π‘΅π’π’Šπ’“π‘Ήπ’π’”π’†π‘―π’†π’‚π’“π’•.

This is the story of Masaki and Tsukasa. They first meet when they argue over using a basketball courtβ€”the facility manager had accidentally double-booked it for the same day and time. To resolve the issue, they agree to split the court in half: one side for Masaki, the other for Tsukasa.

For some reason, Masaki finds himself drawn to Tsukasa, and he quietly checks in on her from across the court. When it’s time to go home, he offers to drive herβ€”and from that small gesture, their friendship begins to grow.

Over time, Tsukasa slowly opens up. She shares with Masaki the story of her past: a severe car accident during high school that left her with lasting injuries. She now lives with memory impairments and uses a wheelchair. But despite everything, she refuses to let her limitations define herβ€”she’s determined to live life fully and on her own terms.

Masaki, a taxi driver and passionate basketball player, admires her strength more with each passing day. And as they spend more time together, Tsukasa begins to see him not just as a kind friend, but as someone truly special. Soon, their bond deepens into love, and they begin a relationship.

Despite facing challengesβ€”and resistance from their familiesβ€”they fall deeply in love, supporting each other through every obstacle.

So what will be the next challenge life has in store for them?

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers. Now what I like and don't.

What I like:
+ Both Masaki & Tsukasa are really facing real life problems, but despite all it’s one of the greatest love stories that doesn't only show us the sweet side of love but also the bitter side.
+ How both parents' concerns are truthful. Both parents love their kids, and the way they show it is raw…

What I don't like:
- Unfortunately I find the story quite boring… And the type of story I'll forget what this about if I'm not write the review
- I can't quite make a different between past stories & the future... It's confusing sometimes

Overall, despite having a meaningful love story, if not for the challenge, it’s one of the movies that I’ll stop watching after 30 min.
