Kinkyori Renai is like eating a candy you've eaten many times before; sugary, sweet, and enjoyable, but also nothing new and exciting. If you enjoy typical shoujo and you aren't expecting anything far from the norm from it, then you'll enjoy this movie. That's the mindset I went into when I decided to watch this and I ended up really enjoying it. Story: This story is typical shoujo fair. You've got the awkward stoic high school girl that's the genius of her school that just wants people to like her, the childhood best friend, the popular teacher that's kind of a jerk, jealous bullies, jealous ex-girlfriends etc. But like I said, if you go into the movie expecting the characters and the story to be nothing more than typical shoujo, you won't be disappointed. The story is super cute with moments that will make you squeal and will give you butterflies in your stomach. There are a few times where it got so ridiculous that I couldn't take it seriously. I can't go into detail about this because it would spoil the story, but you'll probably know what I'm talking about if you end up watching the movie. Now this movie isn't for everyone. If you're really bothered by student teacher relationships and big age gaps (Yamapi is 30 and Komatsu Nana is only 19) then you probably aren't going to like this. Acting: The acting was decent. I was impressed by Komatsu Nana. She's really young but she's already a pretty good actress. I'm expecting great things from her in the future. Music: I don't remember any of the music. But I also don't remember any of it being bad. Rewatch value: I would definitely rewatch this movie again if I'm ever in the mood for a cute romance and I can't find anything to watch that I haven't already seen. Overall: This is a great movie for people that like shoujo and that want to watch a simple and cute movie.
