Strawberry on the shortcake [ストロベリー・オンザ・ショートケーキ] A Work of Art [Rating: 10/10] This dorama, is very deep. There is a ton of symbolism in this show that I hope you can catch. There is a deepness here that lacks in most romantic dorama.
From the way things are done in this show, you can tell that the writer/directors went to film school because you can see different layers of style and substance in it's execution.
Watching this show is like reading a long beautiful poem and then sitting back and enjoying it's after taste. | Yamato Nadeshiko [やまとなでしこ【大和撫子】] Love to hate [Rating: 10/10] I spent the first 8 episodes hating Matsushima Nanako's guts because I thought that she was the most shallow person in the world. Then somewhere between episode 8 and 9 I realized that I had fallen madly in love with her without even realising it.
When you care that deeply for a fictional character, it's already passed the stage of an ordinary romantic comedy and becomes something more.
This is a very good dorama to watch. I finished it in 1 day! |
