it's the same story but with a different intensity (and length), I really enjoyed watching both of them :)
It´s the film and i think that the actors are better. If you like the tv serie you have to see the film.
Same sad tragic love story. watched this first and thought it was the best until i saw koizora. Try I gove my first love too.
They're both based on school/college students and give off a warm vibe. Not to mention the similarity in terms of heartbreak and disease.
Both tell about how love conquers human limits. Being with the person you love and letting that someone support you. Touching love stories.
Kaori lost her eyesight and family in an accident. While trying to enjoy the small things in her life, Kaori struggles to live happily. Kaori mistakes Rui for someone else and begins to talk to him. Rui was once a promising kickboxer, but something happened in his past to cause him to disassociate himself from everyone. Kaori's smile brings out a change in Rui. The two people begin to have feelings for each other, but Rui learns about Kaori's past accident and his connection. Rui decides to take part in an underground fight to pay for Kaori's eye surgery.
"A Werewolf Boy" was my first tearjerker. Both movies have gone into my collection of movies that make you cry. They are both beautiful, everything the guy did he did for the girl, and it makes you long for men like that to have in life although Koizora was based off the writers real experience. I would definitely suggest making a "Movies that make Me cry" collection with these 2 as the first to.
