Fan reviews: Sekai no chuushin de, ai wo sakebu

anon001 · 13 Jun 2011

i never expect this drama will tear my heart into pieces..first i thought this drama is just a typical sad love story..but it absolutely not..i cried so much until i had to remind my self to stop the tears,,but i cant help it..the tears cannot stop
the story was told beautifully until i can feel what saku feel..every element is blend perfectly and when the times the two main role spend their time together, i surprisingly feel so happy for them..

very brilliantly perfect drama i ever watched..there is no doubt 1 litre of tears is a tearjerking drama..but this drama achieved more than that and even BETTER..

The story is better than the movie but for the cast I prefer the movie. Even i'm a huge fan of ayase haruka but I think masami plays aki's role better than her.

This drama left a huge impression on me. It is the kind of story that leaves a mark on you and really makes you think. The quality of the cinematography was outstanding and the acting was some of the finest that I have witnessed. Bravo!!!

No question, this is an elegant, tasteful adaptation; however, the plot wallows in tear-jerker territory far too long, as the young female co-star contends with acute leukemia, suicide, family turmoil, and the fear of death.

The acting is uniformly strong, but I found the second, later-life subplot more touching than the death-and-disease that swallows up the rest of the drama.

Boring, boring, boring and boring. The actor in this drama is..the weakest ones! Don't watch it if you want the great acting! Hey..why this movie is so high in vote??

it's the 1st drama that make me drop tear =(

some scenes that were shot are just beautiful (the scene where Aki & Sakutaro kissed with a screen shield between them in the ward). for the scene that make me cried is when Aki asking for a kiss from Sakutaro, and they kissed at the same situation and atmosphere but this time she had cut her hair.

the music that goes with this drama work just perfectly with accurate timing of what it's showing and when the chorus of the soundtrack comes in...for most japanese drama actually all their scene are usually beautiful and especially ¢ŠE‚Ì’†S‚ŁAˆ¤‚ð‚³‚¯‚Ô i guess. =)

The most beautiful drama ever
I have never seen a drama with more authentic acting and direction with a beautifully developed, well-paced story.
Every scene is so real and touching. Phenomenal performances by Takayuki and Ayase. The dialogues are so poetic that this drama is in a strata of its own. Every time the protagonist narrates his feelings and describes Aki, it is so moving and poignant. Unreal. If there is one drama you must ever see, it is this.
Sekai no chuushin de "Sekai no chuushin de, ai wo sakebu" to sakebu.

The same old dying-from-illness dorama but the story was touching when a guy couldn't let go of his past love for 17 years! Everlasting love still exists in the web generation??? Entertaining though.

This is really an amazing drama. Anyone who can watch a single episode without being touched has no sole. It is one of the best drama's that I have ever seen. Music, Acting, Plot everything came together to make this one of my favorites. This is an emotional roller coaster of a drama.

A sad drama history, the heart of a man zerreist. A love that lives forever. The memory of a life of a man who can not simply with time into the oblivion go!

The duo dream pair Takayuki Yamada and Haruka Ayase have mastered their role played!

Ahkee · 29 Jul 2007

This is a very nice dorama.........the story's so touching and a real tear jerker......I also like the main casts Yamada and Haruka.They just have the what-we-so-called natural chemistry together.........

testmachine · 14 Jun 2007

first i really doubted wether i should watch this one or not, cauz i don't like a movie/drama if it gets to many awards (like titanic or lotr etc.) and after reading some reviews each and everyone said they cried their heart out while watching this one. i really thought it's the japanese answer to titanic, maybe i'm right ;) . but just by finishing the first episode i knew i have to go on if not i will regret it later. i like the main actor in "h2 - kimi to itahibi" so i couldnt think he could manage this role so perfectly and i didnt think the main actress was charming nor beautiful. but after some episodes and used tissues :))) the story begins to wrap u in it's magic and wouldnt let u go. episode after episode i like the actress even more for the amazing work she has done. you really have a reason to cry in each episode but the final one was the killer !!! even months after finishing this one i still listening to the soundtrack and it made me cry several times. so for me, it's a drama you should enjoy alone or with ur GF/BF. you will love him/her even more. it's the first drama that really moves me after watching hundreds of good and bad ones

Very much like 1 litres of tears but the story was touching when a guy couldn't let go of his past love for 17 years!

I guess in some part of our lives, we won't forget our 1st love or 1st crush.

Quite a nice watch.

centresquare98 · 13 Mar 2007

This is a perfect drama that defines jealousy, pain, regret, melancholy, and sadness.

Limes · 10 Mar 2007

Great in all aspects - directing, soundtrack, cast, storyline, and especially acting. Yamada and Ayase gave possibly the best performances I have ever watched in any drama. Highly recommended!

suraya_san · 2 Feb 2007

Another tear-jerker which will make u cry buckets.
But nothing can beats on how much I cried when watching '1 litre of tears'..
The actors and actress are great..I think the ending is very satisfactory..becos you know what happened to her friends and family in the end.
A good drama to watch

mr.children · 22 Jan 2007

to be honest i didn't expect this series to be such an unforgettable experience, however it exceeds my expectations. I don't know how many more of great dramas are out there, but with great confidence i would have to say that this drama should be placed amongst the best dramas of all time. Simple story and yet it can change one's perspective about life, a powerful and moving film. RECOMMENDED!!

ricataka · 10 Jan 2007

The best drama that I ever seen! I cryed like a child!

Monkeyboy2 · 22 Dec 2006

This has got to be one of the best yet sadest JDoramas of all time. Ayase Haruka's performance was very convincing and she is a knockout to boot, making her my fav Dorama actress. After Sekachu I started watching her other works and i am totally convinced of this. Byakuyakou is awesome. I really enjoy watching Ayase and Yamada cause they seem to have great chemistry.

Perfect story of love, perfect story of lost love, perfect acting, perfect music, perfect song.

Get ready to cry and see it!
