The little brother is sooo cute <3

More Shida Mirai lead roles <3

Tempted to watch this only because of Tsubasa xD

omg and I didn't remember about their talk of being reborn as birds haha this drama has so much details to pay attention to.

Got to say that I loved this drama. It made me so nostalgic for instance, because it has a lot of references and songs which take me back to my teen days just as it does with the main leads. Like I've been missing out on all the entertainment and music japanese scene in the last years due to a busy IRL, but I was completely hooked on my teen/younger days, so I can identify almost every reference :') I think my favorite life was the one where she worked on dramas, it was interesting to see the backstage of a drama filmed on a drama lol plus it was funny to see her drama being "brushed up" LMAO I laughed a lot at that. The end was pretty nice, I would have cursed it if they didn't get to save the friends and/or died young again.. but it was nice that the scriptwriter gave them a "happy" ending and a long long life. Even as pidgeons! lol

Like for real, how on earth did they manage to keep a cohesive story with sooo many lines, dialogues, plot changes, filming the same scenes all over again with slightly different changes, keeping everything together and even quoting previous life's eps to enhance the story, for example there were many times on which even what looked like the most normal average random comment would come back episodes later as an actual story changing and or foundation, like wtf hahaha everything was intentional and well thought. Plus dialogues are pretty messy, like a natural kind of messy when a group of people is together and the conversation is all over the place but making sense, if you know what I mean. Makes me wonder how much of it was actually scripted or if there were times on which was more like hinted at the script and then giving actors/actresses the freedom to elaborate from there. Like just wow. So the story is great, but these technical details elevate it much more and thus deserving of a good rate.

I'll be honest, I watched this only because of the main 3 leads. The synopsis itself sounded messy and difficult to actually make a good story out of it lol so I hesitated a lot but my love for Takeru Satoh, Inoue Mao and Matsuyama Kenichi convinced me and then I found out it was actually a nice drama! Good acting, good music, entertaining enough. Don't regret watching it at all.

I didn't expect that final episode, no wonder everything kind of comes to an end on the 9th ep. It felt as an SP or something, like not actually from the same series haha but I liked it anyway. It was nice to have them spend time like that given that the series starts with Naoki already dead meaning we would never see them "happy together" again.

He was a ghost from the very beginning, what's the mess in there?

Errr watched first episode and I don't remember any other drama which made me want to drop it at the middle of 1st episode (and eps are 30 or so min long lol). And the word drop is huge at least for me, I've managed to go through bad dramas even if it takes me years (literally) but this one... wow, cannot find the words.

There is but (until now) it is not the main focus of the storyline at all. Dunno if it will develope into something bigger or not tho.

Btw is there any way to get ChamJam songs???

This was such a good drama T^T I've been following idols since my teen days and it is definitely a world that only people involved with idols can understand, this was so cute and nice :') Plus, Sayuri made such a GREAT work here :') Already liked her a lot as an actress so now I'm her fan <3

Wasn't sure about picking up this one or not, but first episode was really good! It is difficult to explain, like normally it would be just an average drama, but somehow I was really invested on everything happening I didn't even notice time going by (which is a good sign).
Dialogues are very natural, there are also many funny scenes and the child phase is so funny as well lol
Really looking forward to next episodes!

This is waaaaay too messy and it is just the 2nd ep!!! 😵‍💫

got it, thank you!!! :)

ML is starting to grow in me. Didn't like him at first

Still no clue of the Netflix worldwide release? :(

although it is quite possible this may happen on next episodes, he's not even dating her by the first episode lol no "real" cheating has happened yet. It is indeed messy tho.

Is there someone who read the manga that can tell me about the differences in the story???
I'm quite troubled with how bad the script is, probably it is just the adaption?
