I rarely gives a 10 for drama, BUT DAMN

Uhh, ps, sadly, i change it to 9,5 now.. only b'cause i thought it looses its glint in eps 10.. maybe its just me but thats what i felt..

(btw, I will keep updating this review, cause this is one way to vent the emotions ❤)

I CAN GIVE THIS AN EASY 10 ANY DAY!

Idk how, BUT THE STORY KEEPS GETTING BETTER!!!
That's it! You should watch this now!
Ever felt like drama puts too many filler? or just the same problem being dragged on for too long?
ITS CERTAINLY NOT THE CASE HERE!
The main thing I like about this drama is their story and acting. These talented actors act so brilliantly! Ohm and Nanon both have an amazing skill and beautiful eyes to convey the character's feeling. When you give this series a go, you should pay attention to their detail expression it was beautiful.
Kudos to all staff! Actors, writer, director, for they've made an amazing drama!

IT GETS BETTER EVERYTIME THEY AIRED!
It feels like they really use all the potential the story gets to offer! Episode 6 killed me, and I'm more than willing to die of happiness again in eps 7.
IM OFFICIALLY A SIMP. I keep rewatching this again and again in waits of their next episode, which is unhealthy, BUT WHO CARES

I really hope they will keep this up, or even somehow do better in the upcoming episode!
I'AM LOOKING FORWARD FOR THE NEXT EPISODE!!!

Episode 7:
So, hi.. I've watched the 7th episode.. IM DEAD, I'm talking to you from the grave rn.
this, is the first time I CRIED OF HAPPINESS...for a BL drama..
The ending of the 7th episode just.... shi- imma rewatch that 20 more times and will comeback for a proper review without my head being a total heaven of roses field and pink clouds

For those who gonna watch this, good luck soldier, I hope u make it out alive and sane
❤

Episode 8:
Its all fluff at first, yet always calm before storm right?
I'm so happy for them, just when I CAN FINALY SEE MAJOR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.. then shi* turn south..
My heart cant take the shock..

End thought:
This drama is so interesting, tho i hope i don't watch it until they're finish,, maybe im not the type to get hype for a long time? i kinda settle down at episode 10,
I still do think the drama is enjoyable! ^^

THE HEARTACHE OF BECOMING A KING!!!! T^T

----------------------------------I might overthink-----------------------------------
THIS IS A SPECIAL CASE! In Hira case, he put Kiyoi on a pedestal as if he's a god and seems cute cause we all knew Hira thinks that he got no chance. He do it all without any intention of wanting anything in return from Kiyoi.
I'm just afraid someone might copy this or see someone do this and feel happy.. cause,, its not always the case in real life.. we all love Hira cause we knew, he do all that without the intention of wanting Kiyoi's body through this action,, ok sorry, I hope I'm overthinking things..

----------------------------------------REVIEW----------------------------------------
This is the first time I gave a drama 10 for all category!! It's that good!!!
I really LOOVEEEE the drama finale! (I may, or may not shed a tear)
THE DRAMAA! THE HEARTACHE!! THE ROMANCEEE!!! AAAAA

The drama got a really nice vibe! The character's personality are making this relationship complicated and I LOVE IT!
I recommend this! its a light story (which I love!) with enough drama to glue your mind into it!!
And u get those after rain feeling from this, like its raining but you know you gonna see a rainbow next hahah (idk haha) The fact that this drama show another side of the coin, as in the "king's" point of view of the relationship is really heartbreaking and exiting to see the outcome!

The way they narrated and use metaphoric visuals. it was beautiful.. its like they put you through the MC lens of world, all are dull except Kiyoi. It really set the mood and let the audience dive to the feeling of the MC. The words they choose, beautifully conveyed their feeling too
I love how they show Hira's heartache without forgetting that Kiyoi also try hard and hurt in the process as well.

You should try watching this! Nice flow in plot with the right amount of surprise, the proper use of possibilities! And killer OST.
I really like how they establish that Hira is madly in love with Kiyoi. But as the audience we know how Kiyoi and Hira feels through the actor's act. The actors did so well aaaaaa and I'm so happy that we got to see Kiyoi's point of view in the drama!

The finale really letting the actors to shine and it turns out soooooo great!!!!
Not only the face! They can even show it through their voice! Many actors conveyed well with eyes, but, its rare to see one who conveyed well with words! The way Kiyoi's voice just shakes as he talks, and Hira's hopelessness !!!
The actors, directors and staffs!!! Thank you for your hard work!

I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE OST THO!!!
The OST music they choose got this scrambled feeling of screaming, longing and desperation which really goes well with the MC's inner self which is far more complicated than his looks. It was a great choice for this drama. Without any unneeded sfx so people can dive fully tot he drama.

I do see this drama's previous review, which make me question myself, do I still wanna watch this or not..
AND IM GLAD I STILL WATCH THIS REGARDLESS!!
I don't think there's anything out of line from what Kiyoi do. And im not saying that bossing your friend to buy you drinks are right, I'm just saying that I personally can see this as cute, its not that complicated, I just like how Kiyoi still stand up for Hira and just overall things Kiyoi does just seems as a cute response of a tsundere character.

btw, we can finally see Kiyoi feeling after 4 episode of Hira's "one-sided love" hahaha

Btw, kudos to the staffs! The technique they use greatly conveyed the situation! the camera works and color hue they choose.
The blue hue for many sad and complicated part of their relationship and that scene in school... its blue, but the light shine through are beautiful.

Leia Mais

Incredible music!

I WILL RECOMMEND THIS TO
Mystery Lover out there.
likes funny yet serious plot drama?
Who like Kenshi Yonezu? haha

MUSIC
Firstly, lets talk about the BGM, Ending Songs, etc. Cause that's the best part of the drama for me
I'm actually speechless the first time I watch this drama. The timing, the cut, the volume of the BGM, are SO ON POINT! After watching the first episode, I immediately realize how amazing BGM can be if used to its potential. I don't know how to explain it better and this might sound exaggerated, but, when you decide to watch this drama, even for only the first episode, please listen and enjoy the drama and the music.
Btw, I assume you didn't live under a rock, so I wont tell you about how amazing the ending song are.

STORY
It got some mystery and interesting turns of events. I heard that it surprised most of my friend who watch this drama.
But to be honest, most of the plot twist didn't really surprised me, but what surprise me is how they end the story for each episode. It was neat and some were so wholesome. It was like a nice frosting in a cake.

ACTING/CAST
I can see that the cast all do their research, cause they nicely portray each emotion the character have. Especially the main characters, they have both have a different way to show their emotion, but regardless we can see the character's state of emotion changing in the entire movie and the actors nailed it.

REWATCH?
I enjoy watching this. But I personally didn't think I'll rewatch this whole drama, just because of the genre. For a light story lover, this is a bit heavy for me. But maybe I will rewatch some clips or episode of this drama in the future.

ps. I know this aint BL, but man, if people shipped them, I can see why.

Leia Mais

So Interesting!!! SEASON 2 PLEASE!

WHY?
I really like this drama! This drama succeed in making me wait each week to get a new episode and watch right away!
The story itself got so much potential and they sure to use it well.
The contrast between the main leads are interesting! And I can see the characters development well.

NICE BALANCE FOR ME
This is a nice balance for me who's searching for a nice light comedic yet know when to have a serious atmosphere and stay interesting until the end- kind of drama. This live action still got those manga feeling too~

MYSTERY?
This drama's mystery still makes me surprised, but that comes from a person who didn't watch mysteries drama on daily basis, so if you're like me, I will say, how the story unfold is interesting!
Though, this might not be the drama for people who search for a total mystery and super unpredictable drama, but, TRY WATCHING 2 OR 3 EPISODE :D maybe you will discover a drama suited for you.

Somehow this drama able to make my eyes sweat a bit too.. T^T

ENDING (no spoiler so its fine guys)
The ending is GENIUS! It make sense too! Without giving Iruma that "Main Character Cheat" to get-away-with-anything-treatment!
I think because they make it the way it is now, they can end the drama there or continue it because I can still see potential if they continue the drama. its like they closing a drama by opening a new potential! >^<

I think if they make one, season 2 would be super interesting :) Aaa I would really like to see how his life after that

Leia Mais

Here only for Yamazaki Iku but it turned out quite fun!

I'LL RECOMMEND THIS TO
those who like the actor(s), like I did
those who likes weird/quirky main character with light story and funny moments
those who is quite open minded about types of drama. Cause this drama is sure different from most of the drama I've watched. But I still enjoy it, so I think some people would too.

STORY
This is a light story, with some misunderstanding between human and some interesting ending (e.g. episode 5).
The story actually isn't that funny, but because the character is weird, the situations become funny.
If you care about character development... I do not see some major character development in this drama. But I can tell that character development is not the focus of this 6-episode drama, so I'm not disturbed by that.

CAST/ACTING
After watching "Ichikei no Karasu", I'm surprised by Yamazaki Iku's acting detail. I find myself searching for his older drama.
The character gap between the character he played is huge that its shocking!
I think that they choose a suitable cast for each character, they could portray the quirk of each character well. Not only the main character, the guest actors done a great job too!

MUSIC
I think the music served its purpose, to make the watcher and even the characters laugh as well as uncomfortable at the same time. The drama use lots of song, to the point that I want to call this a musical drama haha~

I'm trying so hard not to be biased about this drama cause Yamazaki Ikusaburo is here hahah
And I think I do quite well,
But really, he's THAT GOOD hahah XD

Title: *exist*. Everyone: INTERESTING

STORY (Cute and heart squeezing♡)
The title itself represent the highlight, the charm of the story. Probably there are other manga or drama using this settings out here, BUT this drama able to present its cute and heartwarming stories beautifully.
With a surprisingly STRAIGHTFORWARD and REALISTIC mindset and action, despite the presence of magic.
The character development is presented in a well thought "stages", where u can see their thought process. So you don't get those "why suddenly he turned 180° after mustering up one thing" feeling from some other stories.
At first I'm afraid it will be a roundabout drama where i can predict what they will do, but sometimes they're able to caught me off guard ;p

BL (probably 13)
This is a soft, cute, wholesome bl. So don't expect that juicy sexy bl. A nice soft loaf of bread.

ACTORS (Nice choice!)
The actors suit the character (i must say, who ever choose them, have a great eyes).
The actors are able to resonate their "awkward", "cool but simp", "a cool yet a mess" and "free spirited" side of the character (wonder if u can guess who is what ;p).
You too will fall in love with the actors's smile ♡

MUSIC
They have a nice drama opening. The ost didn't make me distracted from the story. I didn't pay attention to the BGM that much, but that tells u that this drama is that interesting!

REWATCH?
Yes! I can see myself rewatching this drama in the future and recommending it to friends.
I'm not the kind of person who likes to rewatch drama. But this drama is too cute!


After u watched this drama, comeback here and tell me I'm right haha (jk, dont).

IM SURPRISED!! THE MUSIC IN EPISODE 3

I really like the fact that the first and second episode’s main problem is cleared in the same episode.
BUT DAMN! The 3rd episode just broke my heart!
It was really smart for the staff to show us the first 2 episode of hira and kiyoi being a better lover to each other. Episode 3 is an episode with mind blowing fact of Hira who made me scream in stress. The audience just witness him actually not changing from the last episode of season 1. It was a really nice (but irritating) surprised as human’s personality or thought cant actually change overnight in real life either.
What surprising is the music/ost choice in episode 3. The first 3 episode uses brand new sound opening and uses ending song with light tone.
Just like a salt in the wound, they just slap the fist season ost like it was just another episode in season 1. The fact that the audience get to see hira not moving from his box, and the drama slap us with the season 1 ost is just cruel.

Did i just write this for the surprising detail of the 3rd episode? YES I DID

Leia Mais

The suspense feeling is unexpected! And the film style is interesting.

I was so nervous the entire time.. The constant feeling of knowing that the character might be in trouble is really nerve-wracking haha
The fast paced story is making it worse too! It was quite a surprising ride. But I quite enjoy it!

I'll recommend this to people who're interested in suspense genre with a bit disturbing surprises haha

This film got an interesting style! The camera works, sound and how they decided what to do for some scene are things that you might find in older films and drama. I realize they decided to use outdated/old fashion sounds, effect and camera works for this film, rather than trying to make it as realistic as possible. Which makes it a bit creepier for me and that's probably their goal.. in that note, I rate this film based on those intention I see.

The story are great! It was quite a disturbing story.. With lots of surprises that keeps me staring at the screen while sitting in the edge of my seat. There's even parts that I rewind because of how surprised I am.
But I do think the story are too fast paced, as if they need to squish 3 episode worth to 2 episode. And while watching this, you better not overthink the realistic side of the story, cause there is some part that have so little possibilities of happening.. But then again, realistic side isn't what they want to sell here.

Sadly, for now. I haven't found any English subbed one. I do hope someone will do it in the future. so more people can enjoy this like I do :)

Leia Mais

Mostly stay because of the cute actors and their fanservice..

WHICH I HAVE NO COMPLAIN ON!
I quite enjoy their fanservice ^^
Their stories cant be said as something unpredictable, but I really like this kind of story! Where its easy, soft and fluffy with not much problem.

This got an interesting premise and a lot of possible plot.
They do a nice job! And sadly this is a 5 episode drama and they probably need to cut off many (possibly) interesting problem.

The cute actors and fanservice makes me stay want to stay here the most tbh! >< They are so cute. Although I haven't see that many character development on First. But I really like Play's character! And actually the acting coach's character is also a nice surprise! I really like that haha

Sadly, The music/sound is one of the part I don't like about this drama. The mixer of this drama is quite messy. Especially in 3rd episode. the change of the BGM feels a bit rough and sometimes slap me away from the drama, but I can still enjoy it after I got used to it! ^^

But I still enjoy this series! I really like easy and soft plot like this! I'll keep watching this to see the character and their relationship development! ^^

ONE OF THE BEST BL TO BINGE WATCH!!!!

I binge watched this and can't even get bored with it!
Tbh, this is the first drama I've reviewed with full 10 star.. but it was soo on the pointtt
It was at the right length of drama, the right atmosphere, the right cast!
At first, I was just watching this for Ohm, but the series able to make me stay and made me shed some tears here and there!
The love story of a human and a ghost may be a field full of land mines, but I recommend you to watch this, cause they execute it beautifully

PRODUCTION
The execution was incredibly nice! At first seeing this on 2018 drama with supernatural setting I prepare myself for the worst case scenario of an edit. But it turns out quite well!

STORY
I'm really happy with the story and how the writer wrap it. The flow on this drama is amazing, It keeps the audience glues to the monitor and keep feeling the story flow. I got NO feeling of a rushed story and NO unimportant prolong of the story.

ACTING/CAST
Sometimes its hard to pretend a person not there and making sure that you don't meet their eyes, so that the audience can differentiate between people who can see them and who can't, without gluing your eyes to the ground. But the actors did it nicely.
I'm a person who likes to see the smiles the actors makes. And sometimes (very rarely) I can feel that the actor's smile is a bit forced, like its not their usual smile, but maybe that's just in my mind. I still love the cast very much tho! (cause, duh, im here because one of em)

MUSIC
Sometimes the music in drama feels bland or too much. I rarely put anything above 8 for music In a drama for I can never tell and often feels indifferent to it. But with this drama, they made the audience notice the present of sound effect yet didn't make them feel bothered by it. Especially in the first episode when Med is in critical condition, we can hear the music that the character hear, but then we can hear more of his heartbeat and the transition between it isn't weird.

REWATCH?
I will rewatch a few episode! But since I'm not a rewatch lover, I probably will watch some scene that I love.

Leia Mais

I'm pleasantly surprised.

I thought because this is a BL, the actors might feel a bit awkward, but the actor did so well! aaaa I love them!
I'm so surprised when a certain scene popped up! They really put it in a time where I wont think it'll appear ><

STORY
The story are really nice! Its light yet realistic and got a nice pace.
They give big enough reason for the character to act and makes us watcher understand their stand point. And the writer decided a nice reason to "advance" their relationship.
I love how the writer decided to end the story too ><

ACTING/CAST
They did so well aaaa I really like how they act, like, I can see their eyes acted with them. They bring out the character's personality in the story too.

MUSIC
hmm maybe because im too absorbed in the movie, I didn't notice the music that much, but I don't remember it being bad.. so ig that's great

Leia Mais

Although I feel the writer is holding back, but I still quite enjoy this.

I WILL RECOMEND THIS TO
Those who likes eccentric main character. Searching for clues and solving mysteries stories.

STORY
The premise of the story is quite interesting. Their personality are polar opposite and that what makes it interesting.
However, in this first season, even if I can feel the balance between Miyama and Sada, but I can't say the same to Tachibana. They almost lost me in their 3rd episode, fortunately they wrap the episode with a nice ending.
I got mixed feeling with the fact that Miyama got no character development in this season. Although I think we'll see lots of it in the 2nd season.
The story still got lots of potential and I can feel them holding back for now. Which makes the drama a bit monotone, this season 1 at least.

ACTOR/CAST
Just as expected from experienced actors! And I do realize there's a conversation that the actor improvised, which is kind of cool.

REWATCH?
I do enjoy this but I probably wont rewatch this in my spare times, except for the first episode and some clip if I feel like it.. Just because its not a really my cup of tea.

Leia Mais

AAAA-- I LOVE IT!!

Who I will recommend this to?
Those who like those manga-or-anime-feeling type-of-story.
For those who just want a light, fun, yet unsuspected stories.
Those who likes these actors in other drama (this is how I can find this drama)

Story:
its so interesting! the first episode is such a huge surprised and immediately rose my expectation for the rest of the drama. At first I'm a bit afraid that weather or not the other episode can be as enjoyable as the first one. Turned out I still enjoy the story until their last episode.
They got those comedic side yet I can still see, it got great moral lessons and remind us of decision making in life may impact us.

Cast/Acting:
Most of their cast are experienced actors. So its not a surprised that their acting is that nice.

Music:
The BGM music is nice. You got those signature music! Every time that play, you know you will enjoy this. And its so cute that they chose those old-music-radio-future-thingy sometimes too haha~

I've rewatch some of the episode that i like the most. And I still enjoy it haha~
I will certainly rewatch this in the future again and recommend it to friends with similar taste as mine.

Sadly,
Its too bad that its an old drama, cause its old enough to not have sub for some language. and if they did, you kinda need to search a lot.

Leia Mais

I LOVE HOW THEY END THE DRAMA

STORY:
I really like it! I binge watch it tbh >< the story about a 35 year old in highschool is an interesting concept! And got a lot potential! And they make use of this to the fullest!
I didn't expect this drama would have a "mystery" flavor in them, most of the mystery makes me surprised yet still make sense! So I think it was a nicely made mystery!
I actually stopped at around episode 5 for a bit because at this point the timing of the story are a bit too repetitive for me, but after I continue to episode 6, its starting to changed up a bit which make me continue to binge watch until finish XD

ACTING:
The cast are all very talented people! Which is why many of them succeed now! I didn't see the "awkwardness" between the main cast and the other high school cast when they interact as a close friend too! Which, I believe a bit hard to do because their culture emphasize respect to elders. They did so well! ><

REWATCH ?
I will rewatch it!
Not from start to finish, but I can see myself watching the episodes at random and recommending it to friends!

ENDING:
I LOVE THE ENDING! I like when the puzzle is finally falling in places. And how they end the drama, it feels full? like you get all your curiosity about their life answered? I didn't feel this from some other drama nowadays, so this is nice ^^
