Beijo da Morte (2018)

Incredibly good

This drama has an
amazing plotline and amazing
characters with a great lesson and with
the best cast possible.

I mean kento, mackenyu and suda in
one drama? Are you kidding me? This is
like a blessing to our eyes! Lol but really
the cast is well chosen but thing I like
about this drama is that many other
dramas focuses on plot and forget
about characters and some dramas give
their main focuses to characters
instead of dramas but in this one they
balanced plot and characters incredibly.

The main theme of the drama was a
cliché and yet creative too. I mean we
have seen time travel in so many forms
but I have to say that the way of time
travel this drama has shown is without
a doubt creative. The characters in the
drama are as well written as the plot.

Every character is different from other
and has some flaws and good things
about them too. They all were very
realistic. I really liked the character
Takauji, the way he was written was
interestingly incredible. He was a villain
and yet a lot of people sympathized
and fell for him too.

Maybe because mackenyu is so
handsome but the way takauji’s
character was written was something I
really liked. I also liked how every
character was important in the series.
If a character did not got enough justice
or spotlight in the main series they gave
it in the todome no parallel one. Every
little thing was important in this drama.

I loved kento in this role the most after
him role as kakeru in orange. Kento
always plays a high school student and
I really got bored of that but when I saw
him in this role I really loved him cuz he
was finally not a student! Lol I mean
seriously I am tired of seeing him
uniform like when will he grow up? Lol

Now let’s come to my sweetie, suda
masaki. Although his role in this drama
was short but he was my favourite
character in the whole show! He was a
scene stealer! Now unpopular opinion
but I love suda masaki more than I love
kento yamazaki. #sorrynotsorry.

Overall the plot is really good, if you are
a fan of time travel things then you
need to watch this one but if you are not
a fan of time travel and likes mystery
plus romance then this one will still be
your time. this one is not psychological

and that is why I would love if you guys
watch cuz here the kisses are not at all
awkward but they are DEADLY awesome!
( pun intended lol) it has a few plot
twists too! Also the ending is so
satisfying and I really liked it.

So watch it! If all the above reason are
not making you watch this one then
watch it for kento, mackenyu or suda!

Maximal Escapism With Lethiferous Kisses -- Much Enjoyment! Not like the other J-Dramas!

My Bias Towards This Drama -
I maybe looking at this J-drama with rose-colored glasses, because it's been a while since I watched this drama and at the time I watched it the drama had heavily appealed to my psychographic.
1. My psychographic heavily favors black comedies, supernatural (otherworldly whatnot), and the fact that the protagonist isn't some sort of boring paragon like some sort of Mary Sue or Gary Stu.
2. I love Yamazaki Kento in almost anything he's in -- he's Cary Grant good in my book.
3. The other cast members were good enough to have me wanting to search up what they were in too.

My Desire To Show People Some Show "This Show" that I Love -
I have trouble proselytizing this drama because when I advertise this drama to my brother (for example) saying it's a show where the male lead is sent back 7 days via death whenever the female lead kisses him. It causes the "oh that's wacky concept -- maybe later" reaction.

WHY IS YAMAZAKI KENTO SO DAMN HOT??? JUST WHY?!
In this drama he looks soooo good. Also, he improved his acting so much.
I can say that I hate his character, he's a scum and it seems like he doesn't have an evolution. But he is Yamaazaki kento...how can I actually hate him? xD
The girl, in the beginning, was creepy af, but she's so cute!! And she's such a lucky girl!!! How many times did she kiss him???
The story.
At the begging I was thinking: 'Going back so shortly in time, can be pretty boring.' Actually it wasn't.
The story is interesting, original and I can even say it's dark. Since the suspense to the romance, everything was perfect. But I still have questions....
The end. I liked it, but I didn't feel happy at all.
The only bad things were:
- The camera work: There are few parts (normally the shock scenes) in which the camera moves laterally, and I just don't understand why they did that!!
- The music: The music is good, but in some parts, a stupid sound comes up and it is so bad.
One of the best Jdramas ever.

CHOCADA

Esse dorama é uma obra prima. Eu não esperava tudo isso, eu imaginava que seria algo bem besta e bizarro, me surpreendeu. A construção do personagem é maravilhosa. É claro que Yamazaki Kento só faz produção boa. O episódio 9 foi um choque, o 10 veio a melhor solução, mas o 11 foi simplesmente PERFEITO, esse episódio extra espero que todos tenham assistido, porque ele finaliza o drama com chave de ouro.

INTERESTING PLOT AND EYE CANDY ACTORS!!

EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. It's so good I pulled an all nighter and finished it in 2 days 😂😂.
I started watching this because of Mackenyu, but ended up falling for Kento 😍😍.
I loved the chemistry between Kadowaki Mugi and Kento Yamazaki!!
I really hope they can be in more projects together as leads!! 😭😭

*SPOILERS AHEAD*

I wasn't honestly satisfied with the main series' ending, but after discovering the 10th episode of the parallel series, I WAS RELIEVED to find out that Saiko and Otaro DO END UP TOGETHER!!! 😭 😭 😭
Saiko doesn't remember anything, but Otaro slowly rebuilds her memory by telling her everything and they start to create new memories by being together. Gosh, how much I loved this two!! 🤧🤧

Again and again time reset made the drama little bored ,till 3rd time it is okay ,scenerio with the police officer is funny that he tried to explain police officer that someone going to kill me but police officer think him stupid . After that again time reset so this made drama little bored but in middle of the drama they brought little twist ,means showing true character of the characters of the drama so it balanced the drama . Concept of the story is good but direction is little bored . After 4th episode drama is good .but still I want happy ending for him at the end but as a character's character Had been shown that he was too greedy so I felt it was right he should punish for his wrong doings.

I would like to say that I did enjoy this series. The premise is quite unique. You have to watch it carefully so you do not miss a detail.

Contrary to popular opinion, I actually like how it ended even though it ended as such. I was glad he made such sacrifice to make everybody else happy. That's love. Even though it will hurt him, he chose to let them live their lives.

The songs played by the 3-month guy was just awesome. I like all of them. I liked that he played "Hajimete No Chu" it reminds me of my Captain.

Over all this series is very enjoyable. It was not perfect but it was good.

Todome No Kiss is such a great series! The story is great, the plot and its twists are just so good. The character development of the protagonist and antagonist gives us lesson about how motives, goals, and means can change the person and the others that will be affected by it. Story-wise, indeed. I also like the casting, especially of the protagonists and the antagonists. Their acting gave extra flavor to the roller coaster plot. It actually surprised me because I didn't expect some of the actors to play their roles so well. The acting and story complement each other. The comedic element doesn't affect the vibe that the show was trying to impose to the audience. Despite of the twists and changes of atmosphere in every scene, it didn't ruin the overall body of the story. Todome No Kiss never fail to give excitement in every episode, it will make you draw more to the story. I just like how the writer wrote the ending so well that I hated it so much. It really made me cry because I cannot accept the ending, I was so sad.

I highly recommend this series. It's good, I can attest to that. After watching Todome No Kiss, watch Todome No Parallel to know the possible ending after the characters dies from kissing.

Ending was predictable yet not…

The concept was so intriguing and I'm currently in my Kento Yamazaki phase so I had to watch. I ended up finishing this over the span of a few days.

Todome no Kiss is my first jdrama, but its premise is one of the weirdest I've seen from an Asian show. The production value looks hella dated(this show is from 2018) and some parts are a bit cheesy but I'm not above cheese if the show pays off. I think this did. I will say the last two episodes were a little draggy and could've easily been reduced to one hour-and-a-half finale that ties up loose ends. This show is predictable yet unpredictable. Some things you see coming and some things you don't. I was pleasantly surprised at how this turned out. I love how a person that only cares about themself learns to value other people and ends up sacrificing their happiness for the chance that someone else will have it. Good stuff.

Now unto the characters. Kento Yamazaki as Otaro, though not impressive acting-wise, was entertaining and charismatic in the role. I either wanted to be seduced by him or hit him for being such an unapologetic scumbag. Also I have to gush a little about the man's visuals cause he's FINE ASF. This is the best he's ever looked. His redemption arc was great and felt very natural considering how hopelessly selfish and hedonistic he was throughout the show. Ngl towards the end I was kinda losing hope that he could be redeemed lol. Mikoto felt more like a plot device than an actual person. And why was she so aloof? Saiko was ok but she often came off stale and cartoonist. Mackenyu's character storyline was kinda interesting but he became annoying towards the end. The actor has intrigued me so I've added some of his projects to my PTW.

Def recommend this if you're new to jdramas or need something fun to watch in between serious shows.

Needed a bit more

The premise of this drama is super interesting but it was just missing something for me that made it not as exciting as it could've been.

Despite quite a lot actually happening and the main character traveling to the past multiple times, it feels like not a lot is actually happening. I think we needed to feel higher stakes for the main character. While I actually really liked seeing a selfish and greedy main lead — there's a lot of potential for character growth — I felt like the ML wanting to become rich by marrying the "10 billion girl" was not really a strong enough plot motivator.

The character of the FL was also kind of thin. The childhood connection and contrast of the FL being selfless and kind-hearted is nothing new, but next to the ML it felt like we needed a character who was righteous but just as headstrong. Our FL was so quiet that I didn't really feel her presence in the show, especially after she was revealed to be so normal after her ominous introduction.

With that being said, I like the concept of the romance but I'm not sure if I actually bought into it emotionally. I wish we'd gotten more scenes of them just spending time together or, once again, just having higher stakes that would push them closer and give us a sense of desperation and trust.

I actually liked Takauji for this reason (not just because Mackenyu plays him, although that certainly helped) but also because the character added an intensity to the plot that we really needed. I wish the drama had taken it a step further by giving him the tools to travel back in time as well. It would've made the "race" between the protagonist and antagonist SO interesting and added some much needed competition.

Overall, I still quite enjoyed the plot. Though it was a little rushed at the end, the character development works and everything is wrapped up nicely.
