I enjoyed almost every episode, some felt like "filler" episodes but were still enjoyable. I didn't care much for Yuri's storyline. Girl needs to get it togther and stop unloading her problems on teenagers! It was also very annoying how cold Uehara was, but I still loved him because I am a sucker like Nao.
I enjoyed this drama so much, staying up till midnight on Thursdays, waiting for the new episode! The acting was very good, I really liked everyone's portrayal of their characters. Nagasawa Koya as Abe and Arai Moe as Marina were my favourites, such good comedic timing! Fukuhara Haruka was very, very good and I look forward to seeing her in more dramas.
I would definitely re watch this, and I really hope they do another season. I would recommend this drama for anyone who likes romantic high school dramas.

The story obviously isn't original- this drama is made with all our favourite drama tropes in mind- but the format made it very entertaining. I'm actually really surprised this doesn't have higher views on here, how many times have we watched a drama and had second male lead syndrome? Well with this drama that's impossible, as you can make your own ending.
Will she go with the cute underclass-man, the childhood friend who would do anything for her, the cool school sports star, or the protective bad boy? You decide!I watched all the possibilities but my heart is with Jooho as I'm a sucker for the bad boy type.
Random dance numbers aside, Click your Heart is a well put together drama. It's short, sweet and easy to watch. I really hope there are more like this in the future.

The acting is typical Asian comedy acting, over the top but not bad. Yamamoto Yusuke is his same crazy self we know and love! I hadn't seen Nishiuchi Mariya in much else other than GTO, but she is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
I could defiantly watch this again. Who doesn't love a drama thats funny, over the top, cute and silly, yet still makes you feel alot of emotions!

I will try my best to review this without any spoilers!The story picks up where the drama left off, with the real Nobunaga Oda/ Mitsuhide plotting to kill Saburo with Tokichiro. You could theoretically watch this without seeing the drama and still pick up the story, but I wouldn't suggest it as it could get confusing. Seeing Saburo's character development was a highlight. Watching him run into battles with ease, when at first he would have run away was really nice. His and Kicho's relationship was also beautiful and heartbreaking. Oguri Shun and Shibasaki Kou have such good chemistry, even though the words are never said, you really believe they love each-other.
The acting was as brilliant as it was in the drama. I found myself crying on multiple occasions. Oguri Shun wowed me playing two characters so well, and Yamada Takayuki was amazing in THAT scene at honnoj (If you've watched it, you know the one I mean!). His anguish was so obvious, but not in the classic overacted way Japanese movies so often give us with villains.
Visually the Nobunaga Concerto Movie is amazing. The budget must have been high because the sets, costumes, and effects were all sublime and beautiful. The music was the same soundtrack from the drama, I have no real opinion on it.
Overall, I would probably watch this film again, but not anytime soon as its pretty heavy.

The story is of a woman whose father left her all his gambling debts. After running away and living like a homeless person she eventually meets a billionaire who runs a company. He agrees to pay off her debts if he marries her and becomes "mother" to his six grown adoptive sons. I think its absolutely hilarious, Even though the plot can be a bit silly its still somehow believable. This drama is great. Its got a really good mix of emotional scenes and comedy. It had me laughing and crying but mostly crying with laughter!
All the acting is great, three of my favourite actors in one drama? yes please. Horikita Maki is really good as always and Yamamoto Yusuke is just his usual crazy self.

The plot might seem silly but its actually really good and heart warming. Its about teaching someone how to love. Even though the plot is a bit far fetched its still believable and thats one of the main things I love.
The acting is good, however I've never been a huge fan of Hayami Mokomichi and find his acting a bit lacking. I will admit I was biased and mostly watched this for Mizushima Hiro.

I love the story! I'm defiantly going to watch the Anime now. The acting was great, it was very very sweet!
I think I could watch this over and over again. Its so funny, if anyone is having a bad day they should watch this.
I've never seen Koike Teppei in anything but I'm defiantly going to check out a few of the other dramas hes in, he was great.
The acting was good, very cute! and the chemistry between the male and female leads was great.

It had a bit of everything, one minute I was laughing then the next I was hiding under my blanket. I thought the story was great and the acting was so good that, even though the story is supernatural, its still believable. Some parts of the film were predicable but thats to be expected in any film.
The acting was just amazing, I can't fault it at all. They pulled off the comedic scenes perfectly and had me laughing till my belly hurt. I had never seen the leads in anything else before, but they was so good I'm going to watch more of there work. Lee Min Ki facial expressions were a highlight for me!
This is a film I will be watching over and over again.

I thought the cast were really good- at lot of actors I had never seen in anything before- it was nice to see Kawaguchi Haruna in something other than Ouran. Shirahama Aran was brilliant and was the best out of the young actors in my opinion. Sometimes I thought it could have been acted better, but overall it was good.
The music was fine, the problem I have with music in most dramas is that sometimes they pick music that doesn't fit with the scene and ruins it for me, but GTO didn't have that!
I've already watched this twice and have just brought the DVD so I think its safe to say its now one of my favourites!

GTO 2012 has to be my favorite drama, so when I found out there was a new season I almost died of pure excitement. The class and school is new, but our beloved Onizuka is still there, along with a few others from the first season. I was skeptical, having fallen in love with the cast from the first season, but I ended up caring about this class all the same. The storylines were sometimes lacking premise and reality, but it was still very entertaining to watch them play out. The main plot of the season being Onizukas dark past at the school, and the loss of his high school friend.
Yusuke is still his crazy self, I think we can all agree he basically plays different variations of the same character but we love him!
We also get to see a lot more of Kurosawas acting this time around, and his performance in episode 10 made me cry! (No spoilers but grab a box of tissues)
No member of the class cast really stuck our to me, they were all good, but didn't blow me away.
The music score was the same as last season, and I LOVE it, I find myself humming along. Also, they use E-girls High School Love in every episode.
Anyone who is a fan of the first season, or loves a good high school drama, should DEFINITELY give this a watch. I loved it. Left something to be desired, but still a very good drama and I will be re watching it as soon as I get the DVD.

The story is good, a wealthy family loose money, and their house in the process. The daughter ends up working for a lawyers firm earn some money. Not a totally new or original story, but interesting none the less.
The acting is great, all the cast play the comedic scenes very well, though im proabably biased because I love Horikita Maki!
I didn't pay much attention to the music, though normally I only notice the soundtrack if I think it doesnt fit the scene, so thats a good thing!
If you like fun, light hearted dramas this is definitely for you. It does have some serious scenes but they are quickly over shadowed by something silly to make you smile.

KIDS was very emotional. I loved the plot, it was very well written and not predictable (which is a problem I find with most Japanese dramas and movies).
The acting was suburb, you could really believe what was happening even though the story is supernatural. Teppei is now one of my favourite actors!
I didnt really take note of the music (Which is good because i usually only notice it if its really bad!)

Its sweet, innocent and romantic. I love watching Sawako grow more confident and the film just makes me very happy. The story is very basic and not original- shy girl gets bullied in class, popular boy pays attention to her and they become friends. Nothing I haven't seen a hundred times before, but still kept me interested!
The acting is great but sometimes I felt like something was missing, I'm not sure what, it just seemed to lack passion. Its very slow paced and relaxed, so not for you if you like fast moving, action packed films.
Overall its just a very cute movie, there isnt too much else that can be said about it

If i'd know sooner that Oguri Shun AND Mukai Osamu were in this I would have watched it long ago.
I was vaguely familiar with the story due to seeing snippets of the anime, but know very little about the actual history of it all. The story line is great- Basically, Saboru (Oguri Shun) accidentally travels back in time, mistakes it for a LARPing event and ends up agreeing to be Nobunaga, Lord of the Oda clan. Sounds crazy, but is very enjoyable. The first thing I LOVED about this is that it was straight into the story. The first episode wasn't a boring filler ep telling us about each individual character. It was just boom, fall down a hill, your'e in the past, now have an epic battle.
It has some very funny moments that had me laughing out loud, but equally was very intense and often had me at the edge of my seat. The first episode was non-stop action, I wasn't sure they'd be able to top it and maybe the drama would start hot and become very...lukewarm. This was not the case. There wasn't an episode I didn't enjoy.
The acting was very good, I cannot fault it at all. I feel that in some of Oguri's roles we do not get to see his full potential, whereas this drama really showcased his skills. All the cast were amazing, normally there is that one actor in all dramas who overacts everything and spoils the whole thing- you know the one. But this drama did not have anyone like that (that I can remember off the top of my head).
I will definitely be getting this on DVD and re-watching. It doesn't have as high a re-watch value that some other more light hearted dramas have, as you do need to really pay attention. The only fault I have is the ending, not only is it a major cliff hanger, it is very open ended. If you are aware of the history of Nobunaga Oda you will have an idea of what might happen, but this drama is not history- it is a work of fiction. It can go any number of ways. I can't wait for the movie to see how it all plays out.

Being a huge fan of the anime Ouran already had my heart so my review is most likely biased.
The cast is great, I love Yamamoto Yusuke in anything though. I think the cast really portrayed the characters gestures and mannerisms well, although it took some getting used to.
I watched the first episode and wasn't a huge fan (I mean whats up with Honey randomly shrinking!?) but i'm so glad I preserved- It gets alot better.
I love the music, Miwa is one of my favorites so its always fun to hear her song at the end.
Its super compressed into just 11 episodes, there's a lot more they could have done, but what they have done is great, very light hearted and fun.
