WATCH IT! WATCH IT!

Where have jdrama's been all my life? Well, I know, so once upon a time I was a shallow girl who looked only for romantic comedies and romance movies, would watch them, sometimes be disappointed in it, specially some Japanese movies I watched where the acting seemed a little bland, the story lines clichéd and the romace not so believable, and had almost given up on Japanese entertainment. I was Ofcourse wrong to have judged the entire industry based on a few films 'I' didn't like. However, in came Kimura Takuya on a white horse and since, life hasn't been the same. (But that's another story)
Even then, the j dramas I watched were mostly romantic comedies and such.

While looking up Jdramas I just came across 'tumbling' and thought well,why not? I like sports, I love bromance and brotherhood, so why not? BEST DESICION. I absolutely adore this drama. It's just one of those things which leaves you feeling gooooood and inspired as heck. We can all do it!! We're all capable of achieving our goals and we'll almost always find friendship if we look, carefully.

What I loved about this drama is how not everything is magically solved at the end of the day as it happens in movies/dramas usually. The boys encounter one problem after another, but they get through together and that's really what matters. It also deals with a lot of different topics in a teenagers life. We're all misfits, doesn't mean we all have to be misfits alone.

The acting was great, the performances and everything ,amazing. It doesn't have 'romance' as such, and it doesn't even matter. I think it has changed my views on 'non-romance' dramas and encouraged me to go beyond just specific genres and explore. Also made me like the sports genre alot.

I would highly recommend this drama to people of all ages!
