one of the oldest yet one of the best dorama, once i watched it, i got so drown into it and simply cannot stop.
the story itself is about a guy and a girl who accidentally have to live under the same roof in the midst of situation where everything they do just don't work out right. the kind of story you can relate to yourself at some point of your life, although not exactly the same

All supporting characters as such Shinji & Momoko have strong presence throughout the drama, and the chemistry between Kimutaku & Tomoko Yamaguchi just feels right. no more-no less, simply a deep connection without having to express much.

There are some parts of the conversation in the drama when you can instantly relate to your own experience. That's the simplicity of this drama that makes it simply unforgettable.

Rewatch? Absolutely.
Recommend? Without a doubt.

I first interested to watch this drama because I thought the casts were great. Turned out, it was not only the cast, but the whole story is amazing. I'm not really into historical drama, but right after I watched this movie, I wanted to learn more about Japanese history.

I love the connection built between Saburo amd Kichou. It was not cheesy romantic but somehow it feels really deep. Every character plays as an important part and has his/her own story was well developed. Acting was magnificent, gave me chills at some point of the story.
and frankly speaking, I think this is my favourite Shun Oguri, Takayuki Yamada, Issei Takahashi and Mukai Osamu's performance by far.
Music was awesome, really brought the whole atmosphere to the story.

If you're looking for some comedy with a touch of warmth, then this is it.
Will definitely rewatch and recommend this drama.

Definitely a must watch!

I usually refrained myself from watching SP or movie after a drama ends. Most of my favorite dramas that were continued into SP or movie didn’t end well. But Nobunaga Concerto is a different story. If you watch the drama then you MUST watch the movie. And if you haven’t watch the drama, please watch it first before watching the movie.
The movie sets around 9-10 years after the drama, it revolves around the Honnoji incident with Nobunaga (Saburo), Hideyoshi, Mitsuhide and Kichou at the center of the whole plot. Compared to the drama, the movie gives a heavier and darker feel, but you can still feel the happy vibes on some scenes.
You can see how the characters progressed, especially Saburo - I feel proud seeing how much he progressed since the drama ends. His sword skill, his bravery and most of all how he brought himself as a leader.
Oguri and Yamada’s acting gives me chills. You can feel all the emotions overflowing the both of them throughout the movie. Shibasaki’s performance is also remarkable, Oguri & Shibasaki’s chemistry is spot on, even without saying much, you can feel their love is really strong. Overall all the casts are simply amazing.
The ending is hauntingly beautiful - something I couldn’t get out of my mind for days, but possibly the best ending.
Overall I would recommend this movie.
Rewatch? Definitely will. But might not be the kind of movie you want to watch over and over again.
