You Will Not Regret Watching This

Aogeba Toutoushi is hands down the most beautiful show I've ever seen. You will not be wasting your time if you give this show a chance. The overall presentation is gorgeous, not to mention the message it brings will probably stay with you forever, at least, it did for me.

First of all, the characters are so in depth and intricate that it's nearly impossible to dislike any of them. Sometimes even without any words spoken, you can sense the characters feelings and emotions simply through their actions or even with just their eyes. This is not only a testament to the actors incredible performance but also to the outstanding writing this show has. Every character is very thought out and unique and the bond they have with eachother melted my heart every single episode.

There is no possible way to define with words how the music effected me. I know this whole show is centered around it, but they could've played 100 times and I wouldn't get sick of hearing them. It brought me to tears. Their sound alone is one of the most beautiful parts of this show.

The pacing and cinematography was unreal, I never once thought that the story was progressing too slowly or too fast. It was perfect. Every frame is honestly a masterpiece, the way that everything is staged and the dynamics of the characters was the perfect example of directing done right.

There's not much left to be said that I haven't already touched on. I don't want to spoil anything in the show, but I'm not exaggerating when I say that I wish I could go back in time and experience it again for the first time.

I adore this show and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves shows about music, love, friendship, personal growth, and hope.

Don't ever let the light in your heart go out.

This Movie Is A Masterpiece

I wasn't originally going to write a review, but after I finished the movie I found that I couldn't stop thinking about it.
It has actually consumed my thoughts and feelings so I thought I might share my opinions in order to convince you to watch it.

The movie starts out simple and slow, it does such a perfect job of world building, and most importantly, relationship building. I found myself confused halfway through, constantly wondering why Makoto had such an obession with Lisa and when I found the answer, my heart shattered.

This movie is so beautifully heartbreaking. Everything about it is so poetic, like when Makoto lights fireworks in winter because she loved them. I replay moments from this film in my head over and over and always find new sorrowful details I hadn't considered before.

I more than just recommended this movie. I hope everyone gets a chance to watch this, or something like this once in their life. Sure, there may have been predictable parts and maybe even boring parts, but nonetheless I consider this film a work of art.

Mackenyu especially did such a fantastic job, I have never seen him convey such joy and such sorrow before, it was incredible.

Please give this movie a chance, you won't regret it.

The Best K-Drama I've Ever Seen

I've been reading some other reviews where people claim this show has poor acting or it loses the plot half way through. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion, so I'll share mine. This show to me was absolutely perfect. They could not have chosen a more perfect cast, both leads and all the supporting characters felt important and special and each actor did a fantastic job. This show holds so many beautiful and complex moments that left me emotional and provoked deep thought and insight. I believe this show is more than worth your time and I couldn't be happier that I found it. The ending scene parallels the beginning in such a beautiful way, I've never seen a better ending for a K-Drama. I hope you truly give this show a chance because the mystery and romance are executed wonderfully in my opinion. 10/10 no question.
