Fujihara Tomomi

I just finished ep 1, and my honest reaction was: WTF!?!! That's fked up.

That last scene was so powerful- Old Yae looking at the young her...
*Main Theme playing*
"If I were to shoot my last bullet right now...."
*shot to the sky*
*the sky clears up*

I thought It would take at least 2 weeks for me to finish all 50 eps, but I took only 8 days lol XD
Ep 50: As an anime watcher, you know it's gonna be an epic episode when there's no opening title at the beginning at all.
Started with the Sakura tree, and ended with the same Sakura tree.

I literally couldn't stop crying rn. That last scene was so powerful-

The opening title at the end combined all of the changes that happened from all of the previous openings... beautiful... I didn't skip the opening at throughout the 50 episodes of it. It's nice to see the changes happen to it throughout the drama when there are important changes to the story.
Yokatta!!! I'm glad that I chose this as my first historical Taiga drama. (I watched the Fantasy Taiga first) This was a fun and good watch. Well, if you like learning about History and enjoy crying, this is a great drama to watch lol.
I have been holding myself back enough, now it's time for an hour or two of Wikipedia scrolling.

The fact that Ayase-san hasn't led an Asadora at all considering her popularity (as of now)... She led not ONE, but TWO Taiga dramas lol. This is such a feat.

Edit: Dude!!! She even got a Sakura tree named after her because of this work, holy hell!!! Its flowers have double layers, with the meaning of Yae's name being multilayered, or double-layered. Sheeshhh!!!

DUDE!!! I started crying when they recognized their house-
Why they had to recap everything from ep 1?!!?!! I was bawling my eyes out all the way through them.... GOD!!! T-T
The reunion.... I really wish Ura went to live with Mine, bro....

Ep 42: *the inn staff excitedly talks about Yae's clothes and her speaking in Aizu's accent without knowing who she is*
Me: Ughhh!!! Kore ga Yae-sama dayo!!! XD
And the hell bro, they really went that far- T-T

YABAI- The consequences of her shooting skills- omg...
We always wanted to see her in actions from the start that we forgot about all of the consequences that came after it. After all of the war, we didn't actually get to see her contemplating on her being actively fighting the war and killing many people. This episode gave us a woke of how much her skills impacted others.

Ep 39: Aww, it's nice to see Yae in her training attire again... natsukashi...
"Our children" I thought they finally got a child or sth, but damn... this episode

Jo told them that he had proposed to Yae.... Everyone was too stunned to speak- DX

SHE SAID YES!!!! YATTA!!!
And bro hugged her so hard that they both fell down!??! omg- okay, that was so cute ngl. :'D
Also like... Yae will also marry another freeloader of the house? Ahahahha she also accepted them both on the 2nd proposal!!!

Ep 35: Also, the women's school and stuff reminds me of Hanako to Anne. They are both teachers too.

Hold up- he was Jiro!?! DUDE!! They later played siblings in JIN. God- I still have a season left... I hope it won't mess with my head while watching XD

Before starting this drama, reading the synopsis, I really thought she would be in the winning side of the Boshin War. However, a few episodes into the drama itself, I realized Aizu is always on the Shogunate side... it was difficult to watch them progress into that war when you already knew the final outcome of it.

I finished ep 30.... ohh my god, I'm so exhausted from crying so much in these past episodes.... I'm having a headache rn because of it... It's nice to feel relaxed a bit, but damn... now it's the trauma and denial phase everyone is going through right now.
Shit- I need to take a little break and watch sth light-hearted before coming back-

Also, she even went for the Taisho period setting one, and why is she speaking in Aizu's accent!? Hahahaha I got too used to that accent... I might even mishear it ohh god- I'm really on Yae no Sakura brain rot.....

Lady Anne has hazel eyes though, why do the grandchildren have blue eyes? bruh!!!
Yeah, of course, she'd run away... They literally didn't talk and discuss properly at all.
Aww, the parallels to their grandparents' time.

Her imagination... Hanae-san, is that you?! Though Kie is even more creative lmao.
Also, Jinbo Shuri?! Bro, I took a little break from Yae no Sakura to watch a light-hearted movie, and you're here too? DX
Heh- Why are there so many familiar faces yabai... I can't escape... small world ig
Japanese comedy is something else. The way her English was so bad... the sudden change from "I like apples." to "Happy Birthday." was hilarious.

Also, about Shizuka's agoraphobic, emm.... so it's left as it is?

Ahh wait- the leads played husband and wife in Yae no Sakura lol hhehehhe

I came into this expecting to laugh and for the comedy, but this was more deeper than I expected broo.... the feels when the plot finally kicked in...

The ending song by RADWIMPS was something I didn't expect. While watching I felt a lump up my throat, the grieving moments really gave me the feels, you know like those funny feelings you feel in your nose. I did teared up a bit at that ending though.

Takaomi seems familiar to me, and then I realized he played Prince Raul in Seirei no Moribito lol. He was so innocent and sweet in this that I can't quite make out the image of where I have seen him. They played husband and wife in this SP, but they were like water and fire in the Moribito Series hahahhaha

Finally, somebody updated the synopsis. The pairing between them really reminds me of Seirei no Moribito Series all over again. But this time it's in a 1920s Japanese Taisho period setting instead of fantasy, heh? So far, the trailers all look so cool with all of the actions and the visuals are so eye-pleasing. We love seeing women kick asses. Guess I have to wait until next year for the Blu-Ray releases. ;-;
Edit: Ayase-san and Hasegawa-san's reunion!? Sheeeshhh

I think I have seen the grown-up self of the actress who played that one female student in the girl's volleyball team. Ughh!! I have forgotten her name, and she's not listed here nor on Wikipedia either, bruh!!!

Edited: Found her, yappari, I know I've seen her somewhere before. Kojima Fujiko.

Finished it! We got to see Ayase-san being a great detective (Mochizuki Ayako, ikr) even though she's actually a lawyer. (Not that I'm complaining though) Ahh her mukbang show in every episode is such a bonus lol, but it's not a good idea for me to watch it at nighttime DX
