"The most egregious sin in this world is to hurt others with your words."
Deep. I think most of people have a difficulty to say what they really want to say. And if they already say what they really want to say, that's not an insurance if the other people catch the meaning as they really meant. Conversation is tricky, so does the feeling, so we must be careful with our words in order to deliver our feeling.
Other than suspense, I love musical theme movie/drama, so this movie really fill my need, especially in the final scene. I love the all the songs they choose. There's a funny side and the sad side in this movie, but in general they're have profound meaning you must found (^_^)
P.S. watch it until the movie really stop! :D

To see two of my favorite actor playing in the same movie is such heaven on earth. Both of them have an amazing skill. Ayano's acting was beyond my expectation, his bitterness looks very well.
This movie mostly talk about kendo philosophy, trauma and guilty feeling ... and how they're dealt with it. The best parts for me are when they're fighting in the middle of the rain, and when they're fighting at the dojo.
Honestly, maybe this movie is kinda boring for some people, but I love the martial arts movie, so this is fine with me (^_^)

I was waiting for this movie since I don't know when ... and actually I forgot the title (^o^;) I won't tell you the story of how I finally watch this, so let's move to the movie (^_^)
The movie is quite cheesy, actually ... but the story is fun. I love the role of Kurokawa, he is so funny with his awkward attitude. On the other side, Riko's passion towards her job is rather cute too. I still don't get it about the coup d'etat, but well ... at least that action make the good-rather-cheesy closure.
I love this movie, it will warmed your heart in Christmas day (^_^)

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]Well, what can I say about this movie? I laughed and cried in the middle of the night. This is a cute movie, but I hate Nagano Mei's role (>.<) It takes an effort to switch my mind to understand her role, because before I watched Hirunaka hahaha.
Ok, back to the movie. Hmm ... basically, the plot is similar with Hirunaka no Ryuusei, but with apple and apple comparison, which the heroine must choose between students, not teacher and student. The conflict is more pronounced, where the role of antagonist is really bad until the end.
I'm sad for those who left behind, but when I saw the after-credit, I'm glad that everyone is okay (^_^)

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]There's a times I get mad at Nobuyuki. I mean ... really? He reveals Rika's secret in front of everyone? That's really a big no no >.< Besides of that, this movie is really great. Not a tearjerker, but the story is really deep. How hard and how sad Rika to adapt in her environment are really punch you straight in the face to see and to know the reality. And when Rika finally have the self-esteem, that's when you really proud of her (I even screaming hahaha). Another sad but sweet story.

I'll tell you a secret. At first I want to give 6.0 for this movie because of its slow progress and uncertain ending. But then I did some cheating, I read others comment for this movie (I never do that before) and then... "Aaah!!! So that's how it goes! I didn't see that coming!" LOL
After that, I start to have different perspective for this movie. Yes it slow, but it have a deep and (a little bit) dark meaning (^_^)
(Not to mention that Mukai Osamu is so handsome with glasses <3)

This movie split into 3 sections. The first one is Kanna's past and tragedy, the second one is Roku's past and tragedy, and the last one is their present. In my opinion, the divided of the storytelling portion of Kanna and Roku's past is not very fair, where Kanna's past is told long enough and in detail, whereas Roku's past is only told as a flashback several times. In addition, the storyline is also a little slow but flows well. To sum it up, this movie is Sad yet funny. Tragic yet heart warming.
Acting/Cast:
Nagasawa Masami and Okada Masaki both played great and got the chemistry.
Rewatch Value:
I think I will rewatch this movie again sometimes just to find if I miss some details before ^_^

Story :It’s such a good drama. Really. Not just because the actor is Kimura Takuya who I adore the most in my teenage day. LOL. It talks about the traumatic in the brain which caused Ieji lost his memory and saw his present wife and son in a mask. I don't know if that possible in a real world or not, but the idea is interesting enough for me. Well, the lack of detail for me is just that they don’t really explain why Ieji saw a mask on his wife and son face (even the silliest explanation). I know it's the side effect of the accident, but why mask? Why not something else? But after all, it’s good movie ^_^
Acting/Cast :
Kimura Takuya acting is not something for debated or questioned, he can be anyone he told to be ^_^ As for Ueto Aya, I can't clearly seen her acting in this drama because most of the time she wore a mask.. ^_^;

I finished this drama only in 2 days. I can't stop watching this. Really! Every episodes gave me a story, a question, an answer, a mix thrill between happy; curious; upset and excited. I really can write a review without me telling a hole story, but believe me, this drama really worth my lack of sleep and panda's eye o(≧▽≦)oThe story mainly tells us about time-travel or merge time every 10:06 p.m until 10:52 p.m and the reason behind that is very romantic in my opinion. Not like other movie / drama about time-travel, this drama let the actions change in the past also change the future.
There's likely a single case told in this drama. The other case is surprisingly connected in the end. The case not really complicated in my opinion, but the emotions mixed in that case makes it more interesting.
Even though the ending classified as positive, but 3 last episodes really play with my emotion. I even shed a tears (^_^;) But don't worry, all is settled down.
My most favorite part? I can't pick one because I love the whole part, but I like the scene when the past Ke Zhen Yu become the messenger for the future Ke Zhen Yu (^o^)
The acting of Lego Lee is really superb! He can delivered two different characters just based on the time and the hairstyles (^o^) And the changes of his feeling towards the female lead is quite smooth and makes me adore him (o˘◡˘o)
Nikki Shieh's acting is not bad too, she's doing great especially in the final episodes. In the early episodes, I feel she can do better.
This is one of the drama that I'll re-watch no matter what for sure! And this drama makes me curious to make a flying horse ( ´ ▽ ` )

First, they don't explain WHY Azusa experience that condition. Second, the ending is just like whyyyy???? T^T
The lead male and female act great and the best thing about this movie is Murakami Nijiro's acting at the end of the movie.

The atmosphere of this movie is similar with Meet Me @ 1006. Or so the peoples say, thus I watched this movie. But besides that, there's Takahashi Issey and I can't resist not to watch (^_^;) The different tactic in this movie which differentiate it with other time travel movie/drama is that this movie start with the past time, not with the present time, so I don't really feel the time travel atmosphere.After I watch this, in my opinion the things that similar with Meet Me @ 1006 is the mission of male lead to save the female lead, and when the mission complete the merge/the portal/the miracle--or whatever they've named--ended. Sadly, in my opinion this movie is not too strong. Maybe because :
1. The category is movie, they must packed a lot of things in the short time
2. No side story, just romance
3. I put my hope too high because I watched Meet Me @ 1006 before this
But don't worry, the movie still watchable and the story still great. No plot hole and have a detail.
The male and female lead's act is not questionable. They have a good act, even though I didn't get the great chemistry between them in this movie.
My most favorite part is when Shiori and Hirano went to Shiori's college. Their interaction is really natural and heartwarming.

I like the scientific explanations in this film. I can learn a lot even though sometimes it's hard to follow the logic with my brain capacity XD Overall, this drama has an interesting story with an interesting presentation. It's just that, I still hope for a romantic story between Taku and Wakura XD

Heartwarming Movie
This is an old movie that I don't know why I haven't watch until now, even though one of the actors is Higashide Masahiro.First of all, there are 6 short stories in this movie and what I like, some of the actors in a story meet or intersect with the actors of other stories. The main thing about this story is that everything has a setting in Tokyo Station. Among the six stories, there are 2 stories that I really like, namely 'A Half Coming-Of-Age Ceremony' and 'Christmas Eve Lover'.
I like 'A Half Coming-Of-Age Ceremony' because it is a family story, where the father has a secret and tries to tell his secret to his 10-year-old son. Many misunderstandings occur between them because the son does not know that his father has stopped working. The son also feels pressured by his father with many rules which he thinks are binding, while the father intends to prepare the child to become an adult, so he can leave peacefully. Everything is about communication between family members and how to deal with common problems. This theme is heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time.
Then about 'Christmas Eve Lover'. I like this story because it is similar to the stories in the manga, where they seem to meet unintentionally, but there is someone who actually makes them accidentally meet. I like where they disliked each other at first, got into a misunderstanding that made Kazuki hate Reiko, but in the end liked each other.
Of course, because these six stories are put together in a 106-minute film, many details are not included in this story. Also, each story does not get the same portion of each other. For examples are Christmas Present and Christmas Courage. I especially want to know the continuation of Christmas Courage, whether Natsumi managed to express his feelings or not. But overall, this movie is quite heartwarming.
The songs I found in this movie :
1. Mamotte Agetai by JUJU
2. Mamotte Agetai by Yuzu

AWESOME!!! This drama not only talk about music (but I really love the music scenes), but they talk a lot too about the friendship which feels like family. They support each other when the troubles come. The conflicts outside the quartet are not too deep also not too shallow. The settlement somehow didn't feel like a settlement for me, maybe because it's go so smooth so I didn't realize that the problems are solved.My first thought after I read the synopsis is that somehow I will find any suspense theme in this dorama. My other first guess is that the three of them hired by Maki Maki’s mother-in-law to make friends and observes her. Refer to the synopsis, not only Beppu, but every member in the quartet have a secret either from their past or their present. At first, I think I can say a lot about this drama, but then I realize that I can't told the beauty of this drama with words. So maybe it's better for you all to watch and feel the warmth of this drama.
Two of my favorite actor/actress are here and I'm really pleased. Takahashi Issey is really funny in here! He had a lot of lines and he nailed it to say it with such a speed (⁀ᗢ⁀) The other casts played great too, but for me the outstanding acting goes to Takahashi Issey and Mitsushima Hikari.
Music :
I really love the ending song of this drama because it's the song sung by the four of them : Otonano Okite - Doughnuts Hole
