Last night, while surfing online I bumped into koizora, a movie about young love. I'm bad at descriptions and due to my lack of japanese comprehension and inability to read chinese I don't know if I get the story fully so I googled up a review. This review is awesome but you've gotta read it AFTER you've watched the movie. It is available on todou but with chinese subs unfortunately. The english subs are only available through torrent （￣へ￣）.
 〜(￣△￣〜)(〜￣△￣)〜“Koizora” was touted as a “true story” based on the life experiences of its young author “Mika”, a first time/amateur novelist.
Much of the film deals with the growing affections high schoolers Tahara Mika (Aragaki Yui) and Sakurai “Hiro” Hiroki (Miura Haruma) have for each other and the troubles that transpire during the course of their relationship. Their love story plays almost like a “Harlequin Romance” as Mika is at first scared and apprehensive of Hiro but soon begins to see the romantic and sensitive side behind his punk exterior. It’s a bit too dramatic at points and some of the story plots seem to be overly contrived (in the style of a J-Dorama/K-Drama story).
I really loved the story even though I didn't understand 90% of their conversations. It's pretty easy to understand and frankly a bit cliche. I dunno why but I finished the movie without even skipping one part and LOVED IT┗(＾0＾)┓. The film was really cute and sad reminded me a bit of "1 liter of tears". The main characters are very cute, Yui Aragaki is such a cutiepie and I just want to glomp Haruma Muira, who is only a year older than me -GASP GASP GASP- I feel so bad for Yuu-kun though :( ps: he looks like Kim Jung Hoon (prince Yul from Goong) But I guess as they say, a first love is very hard to forget. I can't wait to rewatch the movie with english subs.
As usual, i'll bombard this entry with pictures (ｏ・_・)ノ
KYAAA This is my favourite picture! Everyone is in their school uniforms. Did I mention that I have a fetish with cute school uniforms?! Don't you guys think Hiro (dude with white hair) looks like Jeajin from FT island in this picture?
Yui Aragaki sang the OST for the movie. It is in her debut album entitled "Sora". She doesn't have a superb voice but it is pretty soothing & matches perfectly with the film. I dunno why but she reminds me so much of Erika Toda and Mao Inoue. ┌(・。・)┘♪└(・。・)┐♪┌(・。・)┘
Online Videos by Veoh.com I haven't watched a J-movie/drama since Hana Yori Dango 1 (back in 2006) and I almost forgot how lovely they are. ヾ(*⌒∇⌒)八(⌒∇⌒*)ツ |
