Lovely Complex was an extraordinary drama, and I have fallen in love with it. At first, I was skeptical because I thought the story-line seemed ridiculous, and that the movie would wind up being boring, but it was the exact opposite; I've fallen in love with the "ridiculous" story-line. You really got to feel the characters in this movie, and there were times where I felt like crying and laughing alongside the characters. Whenever it would begin to get depressing, they would add a spark of comical relief, though, they were careful enough as to not spoil the mood.

The only thing I have a problem with is the actress that plays as Risa. I think she's a beautiful actress, but throughout the entire movie, she had annoying body movements. I think it may be because she's trying to actually imitate the anime character (though it's being done poorly, because even anime characters don't shake around like she is) and at times it would really begin to tick me off. It was like she had a twitch or she was just a total spazz. Her acting was great, it's just I think she tried a little too hard. The actor that plays as Otani was WAY cute. He fit the role perfectly, and despite Risa's actress being *kind of* annoying, they still looked adorable together.

Overall, I loved this film and I definitely would re-watch it again, in fact, I have... 3 times already!
