Whoever made the Eng sub, I wanna say thank you so much guys!

This is not the near perfect drama, but it doesn't disappoint me. I love this .

You all probably had known about the pattern of Thai lakorn. The hate turn love relationship, the very evil villain, the anger of our lead, the revenge plot, the slap kiss or sometimes forced kiss like -rape scene-, etc.
But don't let the latent pattern keep you away from this lakorn.
Jao Sao Yorm is a quite modest lakorn.

It's no stranger that our leads in bad terms in the beginning but soon they will have a good relationship. So did Kade and May . But in the process of reconciliation , we won't find excessive hate and anger that usually come from the heroin. I mean, there was a bad blood between May and her father, but she doesn't really detest her father excessively. So far, May is the reasonable character. She gets angry and misunderstood sometimes but she is willing to hear explanation and be calm. In other lakorn, I hate to see the heroin who seems hardly to accept the fact and unwilling to hear argument and be a drama queen. May is not a drama queen, she's pretty normal heroin.
P'Kade is the sweetest guy ever. He's affectionate, smart and reasonable person. He has a sense of responsibility. Sometimes he could be funny too. You won't get bored to watch him joking around but you probably cannot stand to see their lovey dovey. I like P'Kade chemistry with his father in law XD.
And the main point is, he never ever forces his love to Maysarin. Instead, He is willing to wait for her to love him. How sweet!
You know, in lakorn land, many hero force their love to the heroin to the extent that it becomes assault and harassment . Thankfully we won't see any inappropriate manner here.

The overall plot is predictable like any other lakorn.
I love the chemistry between the leads. Their acting is the best. They are so good to be together. If there is a shipper club for this couple, then I'm willing to join the bandwagon.
The most annoying thing of the drama is, the female villain. She is like forced to hate the lead heroin to add some spiciness of the drama. Especially, Sarut's mother. OMG, she's like come from Angry Planet plan to destroy the happiness of Earthy People. lol

note: I always give lowest score for rewatch value because I usually won't rewatch any show after completed it. Come on, there are many dramas waiting to be watched. :D

I always hesitate to watch japanese teen rom-com since its market targeted for teenager and schooler.
I give it a try just because it in my gadget :D. Yeah, once more, I don't expect anything.

Plot: Not bad. This is a light hearted movie, less dramatic and story revolves around those two, Kira and Ninon. If you have ever watched I Give My First Love to You, you will notice the similar plot but with different ending. I Give My First Love to You is more intense though.

Acting: It surprised me that Marie Iitoyo was able to act! I mean she looks better than in Mars. She reminds me with Tabe Mikako's first romcom movie with Haruma Miura. cmiiw
Btw, Yuna Taira looks so cute.

Verdict: If you have time to watch and don't wanna think about anything while watching rom com movie, this is for you.

It has been several years after I watched this movie. This was an interesting movie.

Plot: A kind of flashback movie, while Eita as Matsuko's nephew was seeking the truth about his aunt's miserable life. Memories of Matsuko can be describe as musical movie since you'll find several songs sang by its actors. Since it's tragic movie, you'll have to bear to watch Matsuko through the unfortunate events, please don't cry. Even though this is not a tearjerker, it still hurts your feeling.
Anyway, I think what happened to Matsuko could be happened to anyone in the world, still Matsuko is the perfect example.

Acting: Who ever doubt Ms. Miki Nakatani? :p

Cinematography: Visually beautiful. So Japanese. Kind of fantasy, comical movie.

A must watch!

I love love this drama! indeed this is low budget drama. but the story is so hilarious and the chemistry among cast member is so good. light hearted drama, don't need to think too much while watching this series. I heard this one is an adaptation of ongoing novel. I wish they will make season 2 for this drama. cause the ending is so questionable! don't really like it. anyone ever watch The Twin Peaks (quite old) American series? hell yeah, The Eternal love using the same back sound/BGM that I have ever heard in Twin Peaks. You know, the unforgettable back sound (so 90's!) when Twin Peaks series started and ended. You probably don't really notice it, the back sound in The Eternal is more subtle/softer than in Twin Peaks.

Another time travel movie. I just have enough of those time travel themed movie and drama but this one is need a try. Let's put aside Kentaro despite I watch this one because of him.



Plot: (sorry I couldn't make a resume even I wanted to)

Interesting. Kinda different from other time travel movie. The absurdity of time travel themed movie is 'the way' / how they can go back in time. But what makes this movie interesting is how the characters solving their problem.

From the middle until the end of the movie, I was thinking that it wasn't Riku who saved Aoi from the accident but otherwise.



Acting:

It's kinda break my heart watching Kentaro Sakaguchi shed the tears :( Your acting has improved! Yeah, you know, he can convince me that he was truly sad, he tried desperately to turn back time again and again for 100 times (for real?) to spend more time with Aoi. To fall in love again and again with Aoi. (how sweet!)

As for Miwa, she's a novice when it comes to acting. Her singing skill save her from disaster hehe. Actually, Kentaro saves the day, I mean the entire movie :D As if he acts solely.

Aside from Miwa, the acting of the rest actors is good.



I must admit that this movie is created with good intention. :D The script is good and the cinematography is so good. Visually beautiful.

Only the promotional poster is so so -ordinary.



Worth to watch
