| 1. | Comments by cheery [Rating: 8/10] It's good! As good as the movie although it's a bit draggy... I can't get use to Nari being a young father initially but he did very well in this drama .. And Yuji is very cute! He really can act and cry! |
| 2. | Comments by emiko [Rating: ?/10] complete.. watching raw version with my poor skills in nihongo T_T .. but nari's realli exceptional in this one.. and mimu-chan's so cute along with that lil kid :) |
| 3. | Comments by rikastar [Rating: 6/10] I think it was hard to take the story and put it in drama form, at parts it felt too slow. Nari, Mimura and the little boy were really good though. Especially Nari, this is the first time I'm watching him play such a serious role. I had doubts at first but obviously he managed to pull it off wonderfully. The town they live in is so scenic and pretty, it makes a city girl like me want to experience living there too. |
| 4. | Comments by Kendesu [Rating: 9/10] very interesting story. |
| 5. | Comments by arglborps [Rating: 8/10] This was a very nice silent little Drama series. Nothing world moving, but just a cute story of someone getting a second chance of falling in love once again with his wife who died very young. |
| 6. | Comments by momo_chan [Rating: 10/10] its so sad... hisashiburi ni, mimura ga deteru shi, omoshirokata. |
| 7. | Comments by AngelXing [Rating: 9/10] If you loved the movie, you'll love the drama too. I think Hiroki did a great job as did Mimura. I thought since I've watched the movie and knew what the outcome would be. But nevertheless, I ended up crying at the end agian. Yes yes...I'm a crybaby. |
| 8. | Comments by yume [Rating: 8/10] Perhaps a bit slow when put into drama form. There are too many questions left open that could've been looked over in the 2-hour movie form. And it's very hard to see Hiroki as a father, a lot moreso than Mimura, anyway. The acting was good, but some of it felt forced... |
| 9. | Comments by milly [Rating: 10/10] very touching drama...so romantic drama i ever wathced |
| 10. | Comments by Susan [Rating: 9/10] I adore Narimiya Hiroki, and so when I heard that he was doing a new drama, of course I had to check it out eventually. I have to admit, that I did not expect him to play this sort of role. It really goes to show how he has grown as an actor. While waiting for english subtitles for the drama, I decided to watch the film version of this heart wrenching story. To compare the drama and movie, the movie definetly has a sweeter, softer tone to it, with a higher level of acting and scenery. But the drama, I tink, is a fine interpretation as well! Everyone did well in their roles, and I was glad to watch it! |
| 11. | Comments by Kirari Ililah [Rating: 8/10] Very cute, but very stretched. The actor choices were good, but I'm betting the movie is better than the drama version. It's a nice calm drama to watch, and Narimiya did well |
| 12. | Comments by lightningemperor [Rating: 5/10] waiting for subbs to be completed |
| 13. | Comments by ct_subang [Rating: 6/10] Since i've watched the movie version...the drama was pretty much self explanatory...though i must say tht YuuJi-kuuun...stole the story...i heart him...awwww |
| 14. | Comments by romi510 [Rating: 8/10] If you have watched the movie version, you might find this version a little blant? I was reading the book as I am watching this series the same time it is OA in Japan. In the beginning, I am not too convinced by Narimiya's protray of Aio Takumi...Nakamura deliver such an awesome performance in the movie version, I can't help comparing. And besides, Narimiya appears to be too young in a father's role. But it all turns out rather well in the end. I would say give this series a chance. |
| 15. | Comments by xhidex33 [Rating: 7/10] Weird story but Narimiya is awesome. Mimura is pretty. |
| 16. | Comments by Aunty Coco [Rating: ?/10] Just bought |
| 17. | Comments by Tiffany [Rating: 6/10] There are parts that are so heart-wrenching! ;o; I actually read the book that this drama is based of, and I feel that this drama isn't completely true to it. However, this IS a dorama with 10 episodes, so adding to the story was inevitable. It did lag quite a bit too much though. The boy who played Yuji was RIGHT ON; he was amazing. |
| 18. | Comments by misato-chan [Rating: 8/10] sad and touching. I love Nari and he was great in his first really serious role |
| 19. | Comments by qilver [Rating: ?/10] This series, i am currently watching. Only subbed in eng. up to ep6, still waiting for the rest to finish subbing. Slow but simple and nice drama. |
| 20. | Comments by maguro666 [Rating: 7/10] started to watch this because of movie version... movie seems better than this... |
| 21. | Comments by xxhiroxx [Rating: 7/10] The drama version of Ima, Ai ni Yukimasu failed to successfully capture the spirit present in the novel and the movie. While not a bad drama to watch, the many changes and addition makes the show stray from the original story at parts, and the general lack of freshness in the story contributes to its mediocrity. The drama falls short of expectations under the smash success of the movie version of the story. |
| 22. | Comments by IniQx [Rating: 9/10] Prefer the drama version over the movie. It had more time for story development & emotion flow. Performance by male lead needs to be improved though. He looks constipated when trying to show the melancholy side of him. Nonetheless, this drama is truly touching & watching it again (despite knowing the storyline from the movie) still brings the same emotional stir in me.... |
| 23. | Comments by megumi s. [Rating: 7/10] it's not like THE best drama i have seen, but i think it is a very sweet drama and it's still pleasant to watch. i recommend watching the Movie version first, however. hiroki narimiya does a good job as a timid young father, a role very different from his past. the little boy's character is more developed than in the movie, probably because he is a little older when the series came out (they use the same actor for the little boy Yuji). |
| 24. | Comments by moonfairy [Rating: 7/10] weird weird but sweet family story. surprised at the ending... |
| 25. | Comments by kira69 [Rating: 7/10] i prefer the movie. |
| 26. | Comments by alchocoholic [Rating: ?/10] ~Wishlist~ |
| 27. | Comments by xiong_here [Rating: 9/10] The show's pacing is pretty slow, but the last parts of it really begin to shine! The family is wonderful, I had my doubts with newcomer Mimura with a diverse actor such as Narimiya Hiroki, but they pulled it off and some parts you just want to keep egging them on!! Its a great slow story, if you've the patience, but it really shines as it closes, everything is drawn into the end and ends wonderfully!! Some parts are sad though....but its all good! |
| 28. | Comments by KokiChan [Rating: 10/10] I didn't see the movie but I thought this drama was wonderful. Nirimiya is very cute and touching as a young father! Sometimes, seeing Takumi's sadness nearly made me cry ='( Beautiful love story =') |
| 29. | Comments by Rory [Rating: 8/10] I loved this drama. It has a nice feeling to it. A little slow-paced but I thought that worked well for the drama. |
| 30. | Comments by Milano [Rating: 7/10] A very light and soft story, a lot of poetry, a mistery.. first episodes are a bit boring, but after that you'll enjoy this drama. |
| 31. | Comments by Q-chan [Rating: 9/10] Touchy... Great acting by Narimiya Hiroki... |
| 32. | Comments by dekatrain [Rating: 7/10] Beautiful setting, unique plot and script...narimiya is good without being brilliant...story dulls down towards the end but it's still quite a satisfying drama if not taken too seriously |
| 33. | Comments by kneehard [Rating: 8/10] This drama has a nice, sweet feel to it. It might be a bit slow, but I like the last few episodes which were really sad yet meaningful. |
| 34. | Comments by x_XJules [Rating: 7/10] i was skeptical about watching this one but it was a very creative and sweet story. Definitely worth watching. |
| 35. | Comments by lovejdorama [Rating: ?/10] avail for trade, 2-DVD English Subbed http://www.geocities.com/reddashay/jdorama.html |
| 36. | Comments by heyheybp [Rating: 6/10] Not as good as the movie. |
| 37. | Comments by *Minnie* [Rating: 10/10] This is my all-time FAVOURITE I just LOVED the plot and the atmosphere of the drama! Hiroki's acting was FANTASTIC! I would love to have a husband like him :) The drama made me think a lot. What happiness is... and so on. The family seemed so happy in the drama...... There's something REALLY sepcial about this drama. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!! |
| 38. | Comments by Tokibaka [Rating: 10/10] This is really good, has the best acters and a good story. It's sad and humurous. It's not long or draggy but beautiful. |
| 39. | Comments by loveaomori [Rating: 9/10] I don't give it a ten because I though it was a shame that the ending was the one we are expecting. Besides, I wanted the girl to meet her parents but she didn't. A VERY ROMANTIC dorama. you're in the middle of a fairy tail. In the countryside, untemporal feeling. It's very delicate and... anyway I love it. But maybe it' too much a fairy atmosphere and it is hard to believe. Watch it like if you see a dream! Naraba monku iemasen! |
| 40. | Comments by shortmei [Rating: 8/10] I love Narimiya Hiroki in this as a softer role. Mimura did a good job as well. Definitely enjoyed this drama ^^ |
| 41. | Comments by 206 [Rating: 7/10] I saw the movie first and like it better. The drama follows the story line and intorduces a few more characters and has more time to explore parts of the movie but it seems a bit slow. Overall the story is still very good. |
| 42. | Comments by AppleTree [Rating: 9/10] Became a huge fan of Narimiya Hiroki. Love this drama, will be sure to watch the US movie coming out soon |
| 43. | Comments by Nanahara_shuya [Rating: 8/10] Sad movie..hiroki acting is good! |
| 44. | Comments by AAA [Rating: 8/10] very good drama |
| 45. | Comments by jessiesoon [Rating: 7/10] i think the movie version is better...even tho the male lead is not as good looking as the drama version...but still, the movie version is better!!!
but i still like this drama.... |
| 46. | Comments by nishishi [Rating: 8/10] Very good dorama indeed.. but i must agree that u should watch this first, then watch the movie.... The dorama gives more details but if u watch the movie first probably u will find that the dorama is not that good....
BtW... i never tought that Narimiya would do such a marvelous job playing a "father"... but he DID!!! Thumbs up!!!! |
| 47. | Comments by noodlefreak [Rating: 10/10] cried like crazy |
| 48. | Comments by Lisat1005 [Rating: 10/10] I cryed watching this... but it was a great story and i love the main character. |
| 49. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 10/10] I gave ths series a 10 even though I thought the movie was better...
It's pretty difficult to carry the theme of the series for so many episodes...Mimura deserves a 10... |
| 50. | Comments by uhno [Rating: 9/10] I absolutely loved this drama. It was sweet. I recommend this one for sure. I like the fact that it is different, yet able to convey everyday human emotion. |
| 51. | Comments by Puxxn [Rating: 9/10] I have to say, this was a really touching drama. |
| 52. | Comments by yurifly [Rating: 7/10] All the cast did a great job adn that little boy is just an amazing actor for someone that young. Great scenery too, very soft and subtle. I've never seen the movie so I have nothing to compare it with. I would give it higher rating but it was a bit too slow for me and at times cheesy. I didn't like the teenage story and they should pick more suitable actress to play young mio. |
| 53. | Comments by debabsayang [Rating: 3/10] not yet watch thoroughly |
| 54. | Comments by Wynter [Rating: 9/10] Definitely the most beautiful drama I have ever seen. |
| 55. | Comments by TakiGo [Rating: 8/10] A bit cheesy. |
| 56. | Comments by pinkokoro [Rating: 9/10] COMPLETE. I might be different from the majority, but I love the drama more than the movie. Both are beautiful love story, and sad too. I love the relationship between the main characters starting from school, and how misunderstanding eventually revealed episode by episode. such a sweet love story. |
| 57. | Comments by JackClark [Rating: 10/10] This is the best love story I've ever seen. Mimura gave such a heart warming performance in this drama. |
| 58. | Comments by room304 [Rating: 7/10] a slow paced drama but I liked it anyway... Narimiya Hiroki did a great job in my opinion |
| 59. | Comments by marspeach [Rating: 8/10] Not as good as the movie and a little draggier but it was still a heartwarming story and made me cry just as much. |
| 60. | Comments by jed_ka [Rating: 7/10] Nice!!! |
| 61. | Comments by serm2802 [Rating: 10/10] Very very nice |
| 62. | Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 6/10] Mimura was o.k., Narimiya wasn't, and I didn't find the story believable at all. |
| 63. | Comments by elfgeek [Rating: 9/10] Goosebumps and tear-jerking. Interesting twist and well though out plot. Definitely for anyone who wants a good old love story. |
| 64. | Comments by zoqh [Rating: 6/10] Good photografer! That's all! Yuji and Takumi DIEEEEE!!!! MAUHAHUAHU |
