I've never watched horror works. Is it full of scary scenes? ☻
It's scary like a Junji Ito story is scary. If ghost stories with strange things happening, haunted hair and broken body parts scare you as they can scare me, you'll be scared. But it's really good scares, would 100% recommand.
For the "cute kid" feels, but in a lovely happy setting, "Our Dining Table/Bokura No Shokutaku", a soft love story between a big brother taking care of his little brother since their mom died and a lonely architect. It's soft and tender. For the "I have to take care of the kid whose mom died" vibe, "The Beginning of the Sea/Umi No Hajimari", about a man who learned at the funeral of his ex that she had his child without telling him and he has to decide if he will take care of this child. Sadder but really good too. For the brother living with a sibling in the autistic spectrum, the good ones have already been recomanded, "Move to heaven" and "It's Okay To Not Be Okay". ☺️ But the vibes are different in those one.
And some of the women in this drama can choke too…. Equality 😂
OMG I didn't know why you said that when I began this drama but yoi are SO right, except perhaps FL, they are all awful or pitifully stupid persons in this. 😶😶😶
Just started this and I'm quite perplexed by the change they made at the begining. Unless there is a revelation…
And now the talk about "we should stop having sex untill we are adult" that isn't either in the manga. This feels like a conservative adult against sex before marriage infurriated by the acceptation of the manga has decided to rewrite it for it to suit his beliefs. WTF? I love so much the manga and this kills what is beautiful about it. I'm dropping the drama.
Just started this and I'm quite perplexed by the change they made at the begining. Unless there is a revelation later in the manga (we only have the 4 first volumes in my country), there is no story about her not being able to take the morning-after pill, it's just the broken condom and then the realisation she is pregnant a few weeks aftee. And them having both "same shared responsability". The choice the screenwriter made here shifts that because now it's the boy who has to endure the consequences of the girl leaving the clinic and not being able to take the pill because of that. I really donc like this shift in "shared responsabilities" because the dynamic totally changes. For once it wasn't a "it's the girls fault" story and yet, this adaptation made it once again one of those kind of teen pregnancy stories...
After having seen a little less than 500 dramas, NEVER have I hated more for the main character to end up with the first male lead and not the second one.
I expected an end today and discovered with the last episode that it was just a first season asking for a second. I was not prepared and tbh I wouldn't even have watched it had I known. And I'll probably not watch s2 because of this. I know saying this will bring me awful comments here. But one of the main reasons I completely turned to drama is because I'm sure of having closure at the end of a season. I'm sick and tired of "maybe maybe not endings" depending on renewal of TV shows, I like to know if I will have the end of a story. Not necesarilly an happy ending. Not necessarilly with all the answers. But an ending, closure at least. The only drama without an ending and asking for a s2 I watched was Stay with me and I knew starting it it needed a season 2 and would perhaps not have one. Knowing it made it ok for me. I don't know where you all have seen the info this wasn't a complete story ending in s1 but I didn't see it, while sometimes reading stuff from different social medias, and it's why it was such a HUGE disappointment for me. And if you didn't know, it'll probably be for you. But if you did and watched it knowingly, perhaps you'll still love it.
I love this drama so much, it's so soft, elegant and realistic. I just read the children book the little girl is obsessed with, The Bear and the Wildcat, by Komako Sakai and Kazumi Yumoto and no wonder why they chose this book, it's the perfect translation of what is happening in the drama in a story for children. If you can find it, please read it.
