"Thank you for picking up my discarded trash" What a masterpiece!
✎ DISCLAIMER: This review is from the perspective of someone who didn't watch the original Korean version. So I won't be comparing it, and will only share how I felt watching it.
At the beginning, I was reluctant to watch another time-travel drama as it can be complicated to understand sometimes. But Satoh Takeru, being the male lead, assured me to watch this. OMG, after watching it I was completely obsessed with the characters and the storyline. Honestly, it was so mentally, emotionally satisfying that I didn't want to let go. THE FIRST REMAKE that did not excite me to watch the original one. This is the version I only need.
𖤓 Storyline:
The storyline was fascinating. There was no way one could get bored or want to skip scenes. Every second of this drama was full of surprises and thrilling elements to keep the audience on the edge of their seat. Very intriguing and satisfying, but it was frustrating at times.
𖤓 Characters:
✦ Misa > Koshiba Fuka aka Misa as our main protagonist was phenomenal. Her realistic portrayal of the character Misa brought her to life. The way she changed herself to portray different phases, from misery, revenge to embracing her happiness, I was awestruck with her charm.
✦ Wataru > Satoh Takeru as Wataru was the best thing EVERRRR! His charming appearance, micro expressions, and acting were amazing. I mean, if you're signing up for a drama where he's the lead, it's rarely bad. Loved his character! He was a loving, caring person throughout Misa's journey who made her feel respected and cherished.
✦ Reina > What a vile character. She was so toxic that just a sight of her face was enough to make my blood boil. She made me wonder if she ever considered Misa as her friend. She was always jealous of her happiness and she wanted Misa to mirror her unhappiness. The actress, Shiraishi Sei, just nailed it. Her sudden expression changes, twitching lips, fake smile and with jealous eyes to portray this character just won my heart as a villain. I'm looking forward to her future work!
✦ Tomoya > Ah, this spineless scoundrel was hard to watch on screen. His aloof, mean face infuriated me. He never cared for Misa, only treated her as an emotional punching bag who'd tolerate his tantrums and wouldn't talk back. He deserved the misery.
Overall, it's a drama that will frustrate you and do a happy dance in the same episode and, as a result, your satisfaction level will increase at the end of it. So if you are looking for a drama that is energetic, full of twists and turns, then you should definitely check this out. Let me remind you that you are in for a wiiiild ride.
