Beautiful cinematography and a very touching story. The highlight is in the last 30 mintues of the drama. The movie version is even better. I watched the movie first and then this and not disappointed at all. The drama version has more characters and background stories while the movie version is more focused and has higher production values on everyting else (story, music, settings, cinematograph ...etc).

Ridiculous and Funny!
20 September 2021
It's a super funny movie! It's one of the few movies that can make me laugh so much. The story and action scenes are ridiculous throughout but in a good way. I especially love the blood splatter/blood raining effects and the final boss. It's simply lots of fun and hilarious!
Pretty Good

A continuation of the famed 2nd Patlabor movie. The final scene which the girl uses the glove to remote control the Labor to shoot at the helicopter is iconic (you'll recognize this from the opening of the 2nd movie) and pretty amazing.

Deep, Meaningful and Very Touching
1 August 2021
Deep and meaningful, not an ordinary drama about terminal illness. The ending episode is very touching. Super good story with very touching theme songs as well. I was in the University when this drama aired and don't have time to watch it due to busy school life. I am very happy I have a chance to watch this drama now. Highly recommended.
Kaguya-sama: Love Is War

Romantic and Super Funny!

It about two school leaders who secretly like each other but don't want to confess to the other first so they make up tricks and traps to make the other confess first. It's light-hearted, super funny and full of jokes and being romantic at the same time. The election and final scene are also fantastic. Highly recommended.
Heroine Disqualified

Super Hilarious!
12 June 2021
The first half of the movie is extremely fun with many hilarious monologue and scenes and exaggerated expression from the female lead. It can't quite keep the same momentum in the second half but overall the movie is well worth watching even only for the first half. I'll rate it 10 for the first half and 8 for the second half.

Interesting story and doesn't lack of funny moments. Recommend anyone who likes this movie to also check out the director's other film 'Waterboys', which has a similar tone and full of absurd jokes. It's the director's best work yet.
Revenge Girl

Romantic and Motivational with a Very Good Story
12 June 2021
I like this story very much. The female lead got dumped by her playboy politician boyfriend and takes revenge on him by winning him in election, and eventually becomes a true politician with heart and also found her lover. The story has a very bright tone and is also very motivational. Highly recommended.

As titled. The story is actually quite good despite childish. It's heartwarming and full of interesting moment, and the ending is also fantastic. The female lead is also pretty too. It's really a gem that not much people know about. Highly recommended.

Warning: Spoilers
The story is excellent and well executed. It's about a girl who is a table tennis prodigy but who hates table tennis because her mother forces her to become a table tennis player when she was a child. When she becomes an adult, she has already lost passion. She met her boyfriend who is also a professional table tennis player however he cheated on her. She then decides to pick up table tennis again so that she could revenge on him by beating him in the table tennis competition. In the process, she develops friendship with his partner and other people and most importantly passion in table tennis again. It's a movie full of interesting moment, funny jokes and passion. A very very good movie indeed.
