A Message On A Desk, A Love Mix Up - and the best surprise of a teen movie!

I am currently on a Japanese teen movie streak. It started out from a moment of nostalgia but obviously now I am traveling down the rabbit hole. Momentum still ongoing. Huh. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🤣🤣🤣
And I am a bit giddy at the moment by how good this movie was! (The level of wow reminds me of “10 Things, I Hate About You”)

Yes. It has all the stereotypical elements of a run of the mill teenage romance.
But perfectly executed with warmth, depth and wit. The main characters are all flawed but oh so relatable and easy to love.
While predictable, the storyline still has some unexpected twists towards the ending and delivers some underlying wisdom without being in the face about it.
Fluffy. Wholesome. Entertaining. Likable. Excellent music choices to strengthen the vibe of the story part or even bring the plot to the next stage. How the songs got used reminded me of “Perks of Being A Wallflower” (Great movie, too).

This teen romance deserves its high rating.
Highly recommended! 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
