I'm not even sure how to go about reviewing this movie without spoiling it, but I loved it so much that I felt I had to. It starts off looking like the typical "boy meets girl, boy likes girl, boy gets separated from girl, boy reunites with girl years later" type of movie - and it is that - but it has a interesting twist that I completely didn't expect, as I went into viewing this totally unspoiled. It really took me by surprise - total "shift hard to" kind of surprise, but it's not a last minute twist so there's plenty of time left in the movie to come to terms with it (unlike the "surprise we're really gods being punished" ending I heard about in one of the dramas I was considering watching). Matsumoto Jun is adorable in this and makes a lovely couple with Ueno Juri. If sweet romances aren't your thing, you might go into kawaii overload with this one, but if you like fluffy, romantic, heart-warming stories (with some tear-jerking moments), give this one a shot, I think you'll enjoy it.
