I feel like I'm being lenient with my rating because with only watching two episodes I'm already disappointed, I was cringing while watching it. Of course the story is amazing, but everything else is just..bleh. I've seen the original Japanese one and I absolutely loved it, but this remake is just... T_T *facepalm* smh. It's not even really a remake..it's practically the same, even the set is the same. Also, NO ONE can replace Ikuta Toma (played Nakatsu in the original Japanese Hana Kimi) and the girl playing Mizuki (Maeda Atsuko) just really annoys me for some reason, she has such a high pitch voice. *Sigh* If you haven't seen the original Japanese version then you'll probably think this remake is okay. As for me, since I have seen the original I can't help but compare the acting and stuff. But the one thing I do like is the ending song which is "Flying Get" (フライングゲット) by AKB48 and I don't even like J-pop.
