Ok.. I first want to say that this drama could have been a very good drama, but I was disappointed and it didn’t reach my expectations. I don’t think it was very bad, but it wasn’t as good as it could have been… I’m going to try to explain why. (it may be a bit long, please forgive me ^.^) Story It had been a very long time since I watched a J-Dorama and I was really excited for watching this drama after reading the description. It seemed different from what i was used to, and after watching the first few episodes it started to grow on me. I really liked the idea of a house where everyone’s welcome to join at the dinner table and everyone seems comfortable, even though people have their own issues and problems. I was hoping that this drama would be more or less focussing on that aspect, but Miku’s destined lover was what had the main role in the drama. And that’s what kind of ruined the whole story, because it made the drama just like any other typical high school drama, with moments of people being jealous and having aimless arguments. It made me even more disappointed that they choose such an ordinary ending. The fact that Miku ended up with her destiny was kind of in contrast with what i had hoped was the theme of this drama: Growing (just like a sprout, which was a subject that came back every once in a while) in life and accepting changes.. If the story had had a bit more depth like that it could have been so good!! Acting/Cast The acting was not that good.. But its understandable; some of them haven’t done a lot of acting yet. Music The music was great! They used some songs by the band Grouplove, which I think is a great band. The music gave a great vibe to the drama. They could have used more songs though. Rewatch value I don’t think i’m going to rewatch this one. Maybe one day when my ptw-list is empty lol. - If you are looking for something light and simple to watch on a lazy day, you might like this drama. If you're looking for something with good actors and a good story, I would not recommend it.
