A different dorama
9 / 10Jackykero · 2013
Every season, a whole lot of new dorama are released, always around the same themes: there's the pure comedy, the romantic comedy, the tear jearker, the detective story, etc. Sometimes comes along a different one, and IS is one of them.
What makes it different is the theme of the dorama, "IS", or "Intersexual" as they call it. Whether it is based on real(istic) characters or not is not what matters really, but that it allowed for an interesting story, a different development of characters than what you usually see in jdoramas.
So if you are ready for something a little different, a little more gripping because the characters are different, IS is for you.
As for Fukuda Saki, she manages to portray a (quite) realistic boy turned girl turned boy characater, and the storyline offers the right amount of cliff-hangers and twists to keep you going to the end.
