A beautiful love story
Watched this for Sakurada Dori, I had always liked the bold characters he played on dramas. In this movie, you get to see the playful side of Sakurada Dori ( a big plus for me, as I had watched him only in serious roles) as well as his usual serious role..Taketo (played by Sakurada Dori) crosses path with a famous singer named Rin (played by Shirasu Jin). During a drunken night, Taketo tries to save Rin but ends up being a victim of a car accident alongside Rin.
Rin has some unsaid words to his love, hence he borrows Taketo's body to let his girl know how much he loves her. While doing this, he also helps Taketo's band by writing a song and performing it on a show under the band label EVEN.
The separation, the regret, the unsaid words etc, that many have experienced in life - you can get a glimpse of all that in this movie.
Will Rin in Taketo's body be able to convince the one he loves and Taketo's band members - that he is Rin?How will Rin's girlfriend react when Taketo tells her that he is Rin?If Rin is in Taketo's body, then what happened to the actual Taketo? Watch the movie to find out.
I liked the Character Kai - Taketo's friend played by Bando Ryota. Ryota expressed the sincere friend's emotions nicely. Mami, Rin's girlfriend (played by Okano Maya) also expressed the emotions required of her nicely.
Music was good, loved the lyrics.But I thought the music lacked the soul of the story of this movie. The music was good, lyrics was good but for me it didn't have the effect the story had. Songs could have been better.
A beautifully presented love story - that is what this movie is for me. Do give this movie a try if you love romance movies. You won't regret it.

A lot of emotions.
Oh boy, where do I start with this? This movie was amazing. Throughout this movie it consisted of teamwork, body swapping, unexpected ending but tears of emotion definitely.
The storyline was beautiful. This movie consisted of Rin ending up and swapping into Taketo’s body after a tragedy happens and him trying to reach his girlfriend by a song. (Will not go into full detail to not spoil!)
I mainly watched this for Dori, as he is one of my favourite actors. I was tearful when he was singing and the memories of Rin and his girlfriend made me emotional as each appeared. This story may be common among body swapping or typical stories, but this one never fails to impress me. In the end, I actually loved every character that was in the story.
The actors, casting and everything was picked out carefully and I praise each actor that played their role according to their character. Rin’s girlfriends actor acted accordingly with emotion and made me relieved as in many Jdramas, with their FLs, many do not show much emotion when in a relationship. The actors impressed me with the teamwork on making songs, emotions, different ways to work together and more.
The end had also made me emotional as it was highly unexpected indeed. I just wished there was an alternative ending where it wasn’t unexpected. Overall, I have no issue with this movie and I really love this.
As for rewatching this, I think that I will only ever watch this if I want to go into an emotional ride again. This definitely made me cry like a baby when Dori was singing. His singing is so beautiful, he is an angel indeed.
If you are looking for something to watch with body swapping and band related songs, then this one is for you.
