does anyone know where to watch this? i really like the director :T
I just watched Blue (2003) from the director and I'm already in love with the movie and its director, so we're on the same page! I'll try to find the movie, if successful, I'll let you know:)
Such a dumb ending. You can do every terrible thing to ruin a romantic relationship and steal the guy and then, not only you'll be forgiven, but the lover lives with you, instead of with the one he supposedly loves
I don't recommend it at all: I just can't stand the way they deal with the affair (and I have seen some dramas…
I haven't seen this, but this way of treating cheating and other vices is kind of common in Japanese dramas (not all of them to be sure). Sometime I think Japan is the heaven for jerks
I'm angry as well. I first liked it, but I can't understand how much stupid almost all the characters can be. Things are so simple: some people have zero feelings for their partners, so why not making decision? Why others push them to keep their non-existent relationships? The two 'lovers' are the worst. In reality, it's impossible to gather so many stupids in the same place.

Interesting observation! I think what can explain this is that for the Japanese culture, family in the foundation of everything. Related to this, I noticed that even when a hero or heroine is 'lonely' in their battle, he or she is supported by a family member . For example, in Queen's Classroom (2005), in the worst moment, Kazumi, got the warmest possible support from her older sister. Or in Gakkou no Kaidan (2015), when all the school is against her, Tsubame, an orphan, still has a good support from her grandpa. So, it seems natural to me that many J-doramas track back a character's problems to their mothers. The question is that how they treat fathers, in comparison with mothers? Do fathers have some kind of privilege when it comes to bad things? What do you think?
I'm reading these comments and I'm wondering if we even watched the same film. I'm a fan of Ikuta Toma and after…
We're on the same page. In fact, after watching around 50 min, I gave up. Not to mention that I'm a big fan of romance, but at least so far, it has no element of a romantic relationship at all
It's cute and enjoyable, but don't expect anything too deep. For a show about same-sex love, they stay pretty…
It's deep in my opinion:) For example, in a couple of scenes, we see Sayuri burning candles and praying for her mom. And when Yui enters Sayuri's room for the first time, she looks at the picture of Sayuri and her mom carefully. Also, while the series doesn't spend much time on Yui's workplace, a good amount of time is about Sayuri's problems with her schoolmates and her future study and job. All these helps us understand how much Sayuri misses her mother's support, and how Yui with her caring, attentive, and motherly personality comes to fill the gap and give Sayuri what she needs. So, a really good match is formed!
