The last couple of scenes had me a bit confused......The father and son left, but the wolho and the boy (can't remember his name) are laid out on the grass and her dress is pristine....what did I blink and miss? However up to that point I liked it - though it could be said his mother made him a monster......
Oh I'd LOVE Vampire Knight to be made into a live ion, but change the damn ending! My Little Monster would be brilliant too.....Psycho-Pass, Monochrome Factor,Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki, Shish a no Teikoku, Inu x Boku SS, Natsume Yuujinchou, Wolf's Rain, Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (and it's NOT incest, they are NOT related), Kurozuka, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, Kaichou wa Maid-sama, Ao no Exorcist, Kamisama Hajimemashita (though J. Michael Tatum MUST dub Tomoe - end of, his voice (also the dubbed for Sebastian in Black Butler) is to literally die for) and Shisha no Teikoku.
I'd love to see some of the Studio Ghibli make it to live action land - Howl's Moving Castle, My Neighbour Totoro, Spirited Away, Castle in the Sky.....also there's the more 'normal' and 'slice of life' Ghibli stories - From Up on Poppy Hill, Whisper of the Heart and Ocean Waves (aka I can hear the sea). Kiki's Delivery Service has already been made into a pretty good live action movie, so I can't see why these others wouldn't transfer just as well. :)
Is there anyone who has read the book? Questions need to be asked!!! pls T.T
Likewise and it really did - I cried even harder when I watched it, because you realise that this part of the story was there *purely* because Aya didn't get to really have that experience when she was alive.
?Even now? sometimes? I want to hear her voice so badly.? ? Haruto
Makes me cry every time T.T
What I really liked is that so many of these 'special episodes' are just BTS and outtake reels; interesting to a few, but not to most fans. However, this was a GENUINE (very) special episode and, though a recap in some ways, it was also good to see how everyone dealt with Aya's passing and how their own lives have changed/moved on/developed in the time since.
So many dramas, nearly all really, just end.Full stop.No more - the tragic dramas/movies are the worst offenders for this kind of finale. They leave you in a puddle of snot and tears of your own making; with a broken heart wondering how the other characters survived when you, merely a watcher of the unfolding tragedy, are in this state.
So to have a recap (cue another river of tears with an additional waterfall of sobbing induced snot) and yet also a TRUE ending - that was DEFINITELY deserving of the title 'special'.

It was why, when they made the series, her mum asked that there be a 'love interest' side story as her daughter never actually got to experience that in real life, and it's the one thing the mum wished she could've.....which just made me cry even harder when I watched it.
What I would say is I dislike the comment made about Marriage Contract - (quote) "despite the age differences between Uee and Lee Seo Jin," (end quote)........ Age differences don't always mean a lot. My aunt and late uncle had a sixteen year age gap between them (my uncle being older). Yet they were very much in love and happily married, having two great kids, until he sadly died of a brain tumour (which, as this drama proved, could happen at ANY age). My aunt nursed him right to the end. Even when he could no longer see,walk or talk, he would squeeze her hand when she told him she loved him - his way of saying it back.
I just think that we put far too much importance on the WRONG things - love is love; staying with a person until death literally does part you, is THE most important thing. Having another soul that is your 'safe place' when the whole world seems against you, to have a loving and supportive relationship that you can both turn to in your darkest moments; that your kids can rely on to come home to when the world seems out to get them too, is THE thing to focus on. NOT anything else like age gaps or sexuality.
Age, gender, sexuality, skin colour, religion, looks, intelligence, nationality, income, social status, career path.....it's all just interference that NEEDS to be IGNORED. So long as two people are consenting adults and GENUINELY love each other, who gives everyone else the right - even family - to object and make noise about 'age differences', 'right careers', 'can't be gay/lesbian/bi/trans'?
I have a wonderful, supportive and loving relationship with my husband. He is everything to me; if someone told me that I would have to give him up or die, I would use my last breath to say 'I love you'.. He's also five years older - to some even that small age difference would be still be too great. Yet we have been together 26 years and married for 24 of them. We have a wonderful daughter, who turns 19 next month - and who makes our sun come out.
My husband is 56 and I am 51 - MY health broke badly when I was 40 and had my first stroke; it's only worsened since then. So, again, age gaps are not something to think might impact your future. The younger partner (of either gender) can often be the ones who gets very sick.....my own is long-term and incurable - this is also shown in this drama; hers is basically life limiting; mine is more diminishing mobility and long-term health limiting. Though, thankfully, I'm in remission at the moment.
So DON'T look at someone who you think could well be your soulmate and dismiss them because he/she is older than you/on a lower income/a different nationality/religion/skin colour or is the same gender - you could be turning your back on the love of your life...and, for me at least, society's acceptance of me isn't that important; which is why such comments about age gaps irritate the hell out of me.
I pass that mindset on to my daughter - I've told her, often, that so long as she has a partner who she loves and is love as much in return as me and her dad love each other,I couldn't wish for more for her.
Did he fall in love with her when he was blind? because normally I don't like guy falls for someone like his dead…
He DEFINITELY fell for her whilst he was blind - he was very protective of her and taking her to see that meteor shower when her (deadbeat, scheming) boyfriend wouldn't showed (to me at least) that he liked her even then. However, I think he actually fell in love with her when she taught him to dance even though he was blind, and went to such lengths to help him on the day, so he could dance with his mum on her birthday. I can see why so many worry because of the looks thing, but whilst her singing the same song his fiancee used to in the very beginning of the drama was what initially snagged his attention, he ended up loving her for HER. :)
What kind of reach? Ouroboros won best romantic comedy? Don't get me wrong, it was a good drama and I liked it,…
I liked it too and the acting was excellent - but I also did a double-take on reading that it won best romcom. I can only assume I must've blinked and missed the 'romcom' section of the movie. All I know is the river of tears I cried at the end were NOT of the #HEA type you cry at weddings and other romantic events.
Was Tony, Candy's boyfriend, gay? I only ask as it was clear throught the film she wanted a physical relationship with him which he repeatedly said he couldn't give her - then, at the hospital, Tina was talking to him about not breaking things off because he didn't want to be the 'bad guy'.....at the end she said "I still believe you love him." So I wondered if it was just a typo in the subs, or whether the other 'girlfriend' was actually a man.......or maybe I just really need to get out more......so does anyone have a clue?
The character Han Jang Soo is little more than thug - I really hope he suffered before he died.....However, I did feel a little sorry for her Japanese husband (played by the ever wonderful Kim Jae Wook) - he seemed to really care for her and did her best to make her happy. It's just sad that, by that point, her hatred of the Japanese was too deep-rooted to see beyond his nationality and her mind was pretty broken too.
