    I remember being excited about this drama because I really loved the manga it's based off. Unfortunately, this drama just didn't do it for me.

    The first few episodes were good. The actress who plays Miku is really cute! Miku and Hayato were my favourite characters...and I wanted them to end up together because I felt like Hayato deserved a happy ending. I couldn't really sense any chemistry between Souhei and Miyuki or between Souhei and Miku...

    I wish the drama had stuck to the original story - there was more depth to the side characters Takki and Kiyoka - they actually have background stories and plot! But none of that was shown here. I actually like the character development shown by both Miyuki and Miku

    Just finished this one. I gave it 5/10 yet still I really liked this. Why 5, you ask? Because I think this would've been a lot better if it was a movie instead of 12 episode drama.

    The acting... really bad. I felt like I was watching stones :'D The music... it fits the drama but it's repetitive. I hope there would've been more variety to the music. The story... slow slow slow. Like I said, would've been better as a movie.

    This is very short review but... yeah.

    This drama is cute indeed but... that's all.

    I like this drama. It was realistic, cute, and simple. Though I jumped ships a lot (from Souhei to Hayato and back again), I felt that Miku was a very relatable character. The innocence of this drama and its first loves and complicated crushes is refreshing. Definitely worth it, especially considering the episodes are only 20 minutes long. I watched this in just a couple days.

    Cute if you're into shoujo..there isn't a whole lot going on if you're not into that

    Well, I only watched Sprout because of the Johnnys boys, but actually, I found the drama not that interesting and often boring too :/
  • fanchan2 Mar 10, 2013
    Even though this drama does have quite a few bad points in it that everyone keeps on pointing out in the comments and reviews, but there is the side to the drama that made me feel quite relaxed and happy actually. I wouldn't really say that I regret spending time on it. For a 20 minute per episode drama, this was refreshing and light. Completely different from all those melo-drama intense things that keep on appearing one after another. I had completely forgotten, that these kind of simple dramas can actually make me giggle and smile as it keeps your smile up, it's simple and refreshing after all those villains everywhere.

    Omg, this drama is so bad. I'm n episode 5 and I'm trying really hard not to drop this. Seriously, I don't recommend this at all. It's a waste of time tbh.
  • mayfly Jan 22, 2013
    Hm, while I mostly agree on the negative comments, since it really had a slow flow and the acting and chemistry, especially between the two main leads, was more than lacking, I still enjoyed it.
    I needed a short break from learning, and this really fit in. It's very easy going, there are no evil characters, no side drama, no tragedy - just some teenage-first-love romance and conflicts.
    If you expect something live changing, this isn't it. But for a bit of relaxing, it's not too bad :)

    This /drama/ is a waste of time, really. I don't recommend watching it, unless you have no taste in dramas.

    Despite the bad reviews, I'm going to check this out since I loved the manga and the male actors are cute (>w<)/~

    This was my biggest waste of time EVER. The drama looks as if small kids were playing with a camera and suddenly decided to film what they were doing. Unless you are a kinder-gardener or in the mood for watching something completely juvenile, don't waste your time here. (omg do I sound pissed or what? :P)
