I know I can't convince everyone to watch this but let me say one thing. If you are familiar with Endless love series, Sekachu, koizora etc. those shows are from jun-ai era "pure love" and I tell you this drama might trigger another jun-ai era.
The gossiping lady is the most annoying character to me but ironically she's the only one that I've felt sad about in the end. Even the school girl had this ugly side in her, that scene when both of them are laughing caught me off guard.
It's Odagiri Joe! What's with the low ratings so soon? Cannot comprehend. Personally I have to wait for subtitles…
Always expect that in a mystery drama like for example see how low the rating of burning in this site. It's just a matter of taste most users here are not a fan of mystery but romance. If you love mystery this is one of the best mystery drama I've watched and I've seen a lot.
just finished episode two. i have two questions1.how and why would you want to believe anything on the internet,…
1. those are kids they will believe anything for the sake of fun. The mother didn't believe it at first and also the teachers, they just shrugged it off.
2. he is 15 but yeah you answer your own question, he is 15 so he has no experience in love. In short he is immature.
is it not allowed to have a separate life in japan? wtf. mind your own business. teachers got lives too, why is…
It's called low key bullying but later the student grew to like her a bit. She is young and unexperienced, not just in japan but I think anywhere that thing can happen. I know are frustrated but that's just how it is. XD
Great review! WOWOW produces some of the most gripping shows in Japan and doesn't shy away from using fresh talents…
Thanks and yes subbers are really underrated and didn't get enough credits. I also love your taste in dramas which I think is similar to mine. This drama for example wouldn't get subbed if not for you.
I am already planning to watch that odagiri joe drama when I got time.
Will this drama win the best drama in MDL poll this year? These past results have been disappointments and I don't want any overrated shows beat this one.
No one deserves what the lead guy has to suffer in this drama. It will drive anyone crazy especially during the first half of the movie. If she had a boyfriend just leave don't ever look back, it will just make you think she's the only girl in the world. The most annoying thing is that when he was ignoring her for an obvious reason then here she came asking why he was ignoring her, as if she didn't know. I don't care if she is afraid to lose the friendship just be considerate of others feelings. The movie made the female lead bad I swear. I also don't believe he already move on from her during the ending and it might be hard for him to love again.
5 centimeter per second and the apple of my eye AKA movies that done bittersweet ending is nothing like this. In those two movies it was evident that the lead guy already move on from the girl unlike in this movie. I won't call this ending bittersweet but tragic and again no one deserves that.
Personal feelings aside this is a good movie. It has combination of fun and sweet moments. No boring moments, pacing was good. The chemistry between them is great and also the acting. But if their main objective is to put a bittersweet ending and leave a good message, sadly they failed.
This is not a softporn cause it has meaning, it will leave you a profound thought. Some may argue the plot is non existent but that's not the point and won't make this a softporn just for that.
If you think of it deeply, softporn is like fanservice, like director's obligation to make the viewers happy. Having said that I conclude that movies with Kabedon scenes is more of a softporn that this movie.
I really like her choice of roles recently, it's mix of mainstream and art house type films. She became a really great actress and her marketability is perhaps the biggest in japan right now. You can put her anywhere and the film will instantly become marketable even art house movies as she has the talent to back her up.

This is an excellent article to explain this
5. She didn't 100% believe her she had doubts though.
Let me ask you how old are you? yes it absurd but it doesn't mean that thing can't happen.
2. he is 15 but yeah you answer your own question, he is 15 so he has no experience in love. In short he is immature.
