Are you serious about the ratings? This is like what others did to Eternal Yesterday, and the same thing happens again.
Some watchers here are so quick to judge. No matter how much I hate a kind of series that is still airing, I think I won't ever give an overall rating until it's not finished yet (or even to a series that I dropped)
It's already 3 months, you might see me talking about other jbl series, but this still remains number one in my heart, and I don't think I won't ever remove my ☔️⛺️💙 emoji from my socmed accs
Doubt it,we already saw his inner thoughts in the first episodes. And that will be pretty psychotic if he did.
It is actually I'm thinking at first, but my one moot said in episode 2, do you know the part that he used his phone, like it's pretty sure that it has some pictures of him with Fumiya so it made me to rethink that he is faking it
There are 3 possible endings that I am actually thinking about this
1. Ritsu really lost his memories and he will find out that Fumiya is keeping it as a secret. They will go through another frustrating confrontation but they will settle all the things in the end.
2. Ritsu is faking his amnesia (or accident?) and just went along with the idea of Fumiya. Fumiya will find out then they will go through to a journey like the first one that I have said.
3. They will be able to settle the things but they won't end up together because there will be a twist in the later end like a tragic ending or someone is about to leave because of a job. It can be a tragic or like open ending
God I hope it’s not like Eternal Yesterday! Even though it’s my top ranked show, I sob every time I watch…
huhu, same. even though Eternal Yesterday is my top ranked show as well, I am still not healed yet from it. I'm not sure if I can stand another sad ending
this is a really impressive first episode, like the other one who commented here, everything is gorgeous, the acting, the visuals, the cinematography, the ost instrumental background, and the storyline
I have no idea how much the impact of this series left for me. Everytime I finish another drama, I used to go back to this. And as expected, it's still my number one, and it will probably forever does
I might be in the minority but this was the least fave jbl series that I've watched. Here are some of my reasons why:
1. I can't feel the enemies-to-lovers trope. As someone who has watched a ton from this kind of trope, this is the first time that I didn't feel the antagonism, despise, rivalry and hate between the two main couples. I am looking for spicier confrontations and teasing.
2. The acting. It was really stiff and unnatural from start to end. I can't feel the emotions of the character that they are trying to portray. But to be fair, Onoe's character is one of the kinds of characters that are hard to portray. I think they should have made some adjustments instead in terms of the delivery style. Even though we can see some can portray the anime-ish kind of acting that we usually get from the vibe of the og or the manga, it won't work all of the time and not every actor can portray it well. Aside from acting, I find too many monologues that it supposed to be voice-over instead because there are moments that they are delivering some confidential lines like no one can hear it.
3. The chemistry. Unexpectedly, the chemistry of the 2 actors can be really seen off cam, I just don't know why I can't see it from the drama. Tbh, I used to talk about the actors during the early episodes because of their acting and chemistry but on second thought, it's not their fault after seeing some of their off-cam moments.
4. Cinematography. I don't like the way they angled their shots. One example was the hugging scene, there is something off for me, it made the scene less romantic and less emotional for me. My other concern was the music. I like the intro song but I am not a fan of the ost instrumental that they used in some parts that affect the vibe of the scene.
5.. The plot. The execution is a little bit messy for me. I thought it will get better already when Inami's character showed up but they just romanticized Inami's character because what he did was pure evil whatever the motives were. There is no intense climax as well. I believe that episode 7 was already the climax and I really find it underwhelming.
Good points: actors visuals, intro song
Overall (or conclusion): Like what my one friend (tw moot) said, "I don't hate it but I'm disappointed". I gave it a chance until the end and I hoped (for real) that it would get better every time when I finish an episode. Because in the end and as someone who is a fan of jbls more than the other bls from other countries, I am happy to see every bls celebrate their success for giving a high-quality produced story
This is the last of the line up for the drama shower but I hope they keep giving more after it ends... jp bl is…
Oh, is it really the last of the lineup? Tbh, I kind of didn't expect this, some also said from my japanese moot that AmePara would be already their last. But hoping this would turn out good and continue this lineup
The trailer itself already looks really good. I also feel like that this would be like a "fake amnesia" like I usually saw from other stories but I hope they don't take that route because that kind of twist usually get complicated in the later part
Nevertheless, I am hoping this would turn out good and satisfy our expectations, and I believe to the main leads that they will deliver a really promising and well acting as I've seen them already from their previous series
