I just finished it. It's so good that I hate myself for not watching it sooner, it was on my watchlist for years. Waiting for a sequel, either a special movie or another season would be great.
omg Nagano Mei as Suzume was so cute, not the typical girl in those shoujo live-action, i just love her. Can't blame the guys, I'd fall for her too if I were in the movie.
the train was the perfect place for their first meet. i think it's a symbolism of their relationship, like two trains heading towards opposite directions and passing by each other at one point.
What did Sawa mean by "This little life that came out of my womb..." at the end of the movie? Did she mean she was pregnant? When she said "that same heart beats close to me" she meant she could feel another heartbeat inside her? Can someone confirm this please, I just want Sawa to at least have something from Yuchiro's and a little happiness in her life.
Not sure why it's not mentioned in the synopsis but I checked the movie's website and found out Nobuyuki and Tasuku have the same last name, I wonder if they're related, like brothers or perhaps cousins? Also this is based on a Shion Miura's novel (same author with Wood Job!, The Great Passage) plus Arata and Eita in the cast so I'm definitely gonna watch it.
it got quite... cheesy at some parts, but it's a romantic drama after all so i guess it's fine. and i think the drama was made to be predictable on purpose, i bet many of the viewers can guess "it" right after 4 or 5 episodes in, especially with Saito Takumi's acting and his narration, it was easy to tell. there's also a few small twists which make it interesting enough. the drama as a whole was a very good watch, the last few episodes got me crying like a baby.
so does this mean Rikako and Osamu are not gonna have another ending other than the one in the drama? that's just sad :( that couple was so passionate towards each other. i hope the sequel movie will mention them.
her name was Kyouko, written as "今日子" and 今日 means "Today".
Also this is based on a Shion Miura's novel (same author with Wood Job!, The Great Passage) plus Arata and Eita in the cast so I'm definitely gonna watch it.
it's like Lolita with a mix of Stoker (2013), except that My Man took everything to another level.
