Love movies

And his reaction was equally as cute!

Your English is perfect!!!! You have a good point, she was decisive until she met Wataru - then it went all down the hill, so to speak. She was torn between telling Wataru that she loved him and wanting him to improve.

Maybe she could have hinted to him how she felt but still waiting for him to improve himself. (But I'm not the writer)

I would have liked the writer not to wait until the end of Ep 11, but to give us Ep 10 and 11 a gradual change in her so it didn't feel too chocked at the end.

Although the ending was really cute.

Darn, I wish I could have said it better! You covered it all very well.

I liked the series but felt frustrated by her indecisive nature. It wasn't until the absolute end that she sprung forth and became re-energized.

Unfortunately I'm watching the series from an American viewpoint which is widely different from a Japanese one.

Dean is always handsome and a good actor. I loved him in "Hapimari: Happy Marriage!? "(2016). Watched it on Amazon, of all places.

Wataru's growth was worth watching. I liked that there were no villains and I think that is because there were only 11 episodes. No extra time for those tropes. That is one reason I like J/dramas, short and to the point.
For me, it was not a rewatch, I gave it an 8.

Thanks again for your summary.

Yes, 14 long years?? I don't know what the writers were thinking of spending so much time on his love for her and I don't think it is finished, from the previews, she wants to spend some time trying to understand their college relationship. Why??? Dumb. Oh well, I still love this series so much that I can always fast forward :-)

I agree, why keep showing those college days, boring and we know it will go nowhere. Enough.

Thank you for making this comparison. Even though I didn't read the book, you brought out the differences. Also you write so very well.

I'm on Ep 15. I so agree with you! He is a nerd's nerd. They are not easy to communicate with but once they understand then good for both!

I am really enjoying watching this drama. Things are slow but that's nice too. Allen Ren is an interesting actor, with his sad eyes - I will have to watch more of his stuff.

Bai lu is as good as she was in Love is Sweet which was also one of my most favorite dramas and certainly more alive!! (Leo Luo makes things alive)

Very well said. An intelligent post, thank you!

You got it right!!!! Money speaks. I'm just up to ep 5 and I hope he loosens up.

Unfortunately, Kim Soo Hyun would have been the perfect ML. Love the American original version.

Yes, Aaron Yan is gorgeous. Agree!

Yes it disappeared. I watched Ep 1,2 and and all of a sudden it disappeared. Thanks for letting me know that I am not crazy :-)

Looking forward to this! Loved Han So Hee in Nevertheless, consistently portraying a young insecure artist - with Song Kang as the ML who was also very convincing in his role.

Right!

It was "my little happiness" too since I was happy all the way through :-)

I know, I know, leave well enough alone, right?! One of the few dramas I've watched that doesn't have a second lead that may mess things up that I really liked is "My Little Happiness." I also like the people in the town.

OMG, I hope we don't have a rush ending like the way you described. Why can't the writers leave well enough alone? Why do the they have to torture us when the story can be so simple and lovely?!

Especially the faceholding end of Ep 4. So special. Rewatch a thousand times worthy.

I thought so too! MLs are all that is necessary. I agree with you!

4 fantastic episodes - love, neighborhood, caring - what more do we want?! Love this series, so genuine, so much fun to watch. Can't wait until next week.
