I saw a small clip of this video on tiktok and I]the male lead was very handsome so I decided to check it only to find out that it was a movie. The entire movie was like a typical bullying movie, when one of the main leads is bullied and the other comes out and steps out for them. Honestly very cute.

Cast was great, especially the male lead, this hair is on fleek, so hot. Really recommend, very short but I kinda wanted like an after story, cause this all happened while their in school, so like there is a possibility that they might break up later in their lives. But really nice movie.

Just okay!

Didn't expect it to be amazing and it definitely wasn't, I still liked it tho! The story wasn't anything special, it was very easy to watch. The actors were decent, it felt like the ml was whispering 80% of the time which was kinda weird. One problem I had is that I feel like we never got to know the ml? He was just really uninteresting. We could've gotten some more about his childhood or something. I really liked the fl! The couple's chemistry was meh but they were still sweet. Everything was decent but I didn't hate it. Movies like this are kind of my guilty pleasure, it's not amazing but still fun to watch haha!

You should watch this if you want something easy and sweet to watch! :)

Not Good Enough

Japanese Drama '' Honey Lemon Soda '' is a school romantic comedy with a basic plot.

The beginning of the drama, if I have to be honest, was enjoyable enough, typical shoujo manga adaption, but entertaining nevertheless. The characters seemed interesting and their chemistry was spot on.

However, the story started getting boring and frustrating. Especially the leading lady's character was too hopeless and the drama that appeared here and there to spice up the story was eye rolling. But, I appreciated that they had them as a couple halfway through the movie and not just at the end.

The performances, finally, were all good by every actor and actress of the cast.

So, overall, three out of ten.

Al principio da un poco de cringe, pero lo cute te termina comprando.

¡Hola a todos! Hoy me paso por acá para hablarles de "Honey lemon soda" en nombre de Aldi y mío porque las dos opinamos lo mismo jaja.

La historia sigue a Uka, una chica a la que le cuesta hacer amigos, en su camino hacia superar la timidez gracias a la ayuda de Kai, un chico con el pelo color limón que se ofrece a ayudarla.

Empezamos a ver esta película solo porque amamos a Raul, sí, el actor se llama Raul, y nos terminamos encontrando con una historia de amor súper disfrutable a pesar de lo cliché... Bueno, eso una vez que superamos el cringe inicial que fue bastante grande.

Lo bueno de la protagonista es que, aunque al principio puede pecar de ingenua y sumisa, con el tiempo va ganando confianza hasta convertirse en un personaje muy bonito (su evolución se da muy rápido, pero de vez en cuando no viene mal). Kai, en cambio, es más complicado porque, aunque lo amamos mucho, aceptamos que está muy alejado de la realidad (nos negamos a creer que personas así existen), por eso el cringe del principio. Eso sí, Raul actuando superó nuestras expectativas (fue rarísimo confirmar que puede no actuar como una diva y solo como una diva*). Y Ai (Uka) es muy buena as always.

Pasando al resto del cast, todos están súper bien y los personajes que interpretan nos gustaron mucho, sobre todo porque se escapan de lo esperable en este tipo de historias (que la mayoría no sean unos bullies o unos tsunderes es decir mucho).

Y volviendo a la historia, hay un conflicto central en toda la trama que termina por explotar al final y, aunque no sé bien como expresarlo, digamos que es medio una boludez y lo exageran mucho, pero le agarramos tanto cariño a los protagonistas que no nos importó. En esta cuenta creemos en la Kai Supremacy (o es que nos gusta mucho Raul y aceptamos cualquier cosa que haga, quién sabe).

En fin, una peli muy cute con vibes súper veraniegas (es que él es el verano) y un ritmo bastante dinámico que no aburre en ningún momento.

¿La vieron? ¿Tienen ganas de verla? ¿Conocen a Raul? ¿Escuchan Snow Man? ¿Conocen a Meguro Ren? ¿Lo aman? ¿Sakuma no es una cosita muy tierna? ¿Acaso nos volvimos fans de una banda de Jpop? Ampliaremos.
