Being bullied and liking it?

All I could think of was Stockholm Syndrome. He approaches her, says that she is his slave and must do whatever he wants, she puts up with it and falls in love. Why? Japanese dramas often give the ML a tsundere personality, but that concept really needs to be able to show that the ML actually has a humane and "soft" side to him. That was not in evidence here. He was just mean, in his words and his actions. Then, suddenly he frees her, saying she bores him. The constant manhandling by him, she would have had bruises all over her face from the way he was grabbing her all the time. So, this was not a character I could root for.

Then there's the FL. Grow a spine! I know that we often like to watch things that are not realistic, it's part of what makes us watch dramas, to escape from real life for a while. But she would have had to had absolutely no self-esteem to put up with and actually be drawn to his behavior. She would have had to fall in love with him BECAUSE he treated her badly, because there was certainly nothing else going on in him that was likeable.

Then there's the 2ML, sweet and gentle, that likes her too. All I could think was that if he really liked the girl, he would have insisted that his friend treat her better. Instead, they bet on the outcome of a one-on-one basketball competition for the honor of being with her.

I did like the idea of him showing his feelings in his music, but that didn't happen often enough to make up for his poor treatment of her.

it wasn’t for me

Despite the promising plot this drama just didn’t do it for me, maybe I grew out of the aggressive and borderline possessive male lead trope. I feel like the relationship between the main leads had no development and was more of a sexual attachment than love, I will give it to the main actors who did have the chemistry but chemistry can only get you so far when the storyline is lacking. This may be other people’s cup of tea but it wasn’t mine, it’s like they were trying to do a high school version of 50 shades of grey but make it a bit more PG and failed miserably.

One of the best drama i ever watched!

This drama has been one of the first dramas i've ever watched and i loved it! The acting was stunning, even the smaller details are good (for example when Chiba touches the water), i really like the facial expressions of every character because they feel real.
I gotta say, the story of the manga is more complete, the drama adaptation contains less pieces of the story but its well structured and gets its job done.
Loved the music especially the piano one which i also searched up afterwards.
The cast is so good, i really like both Chiba and Kento, the main actress and SLs too!
My opinion about the obstacles that the FL experiences is that i honestly like this kind of stuff, i like when the FL has difficulties because theres always someone that helps her overcome it, in some cases she overcome them herself and i like that too!
I totally recommend it.

The Black Devil and the White Prince depicts the triangular love between two best friends and the new girl. Akabane is the girl who has this ugly duckling to beautiful swan transformation and ends up living at a dorm at a new school. This showcase of her on-and-off relationship with Kurosaki really adds to the overall theme where the main character poorly treats the female lead, and their feelings begin to develop. Of course the long-term friendship between Kurosaki and Shirakawa is also the factor that adds to the overall plot of the story and how they settle their overlapping feelings for Akabane. It's a very simple story but is enjoyable to watch. There's always a hint of the true feelings between all of the characters that strengthens the love triangle between the three characters. It's also slightly focused on the idea of Akabane becoming someone where she's confident in herself, due to her experience from middle school.

It's a good movie / drama and I would highly recommend watching the prequel before the movie since it adds a lot more context to the story and how everything developed.

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]

I have the same review as the series, which surprisingly I’m enjoying my time watching this movie. But, this movie contains more emotions and conflict than the series. I salute of Meiko's generosity. I hate how Takumi threatened Haruto about their friendship, but I relieved of how fast and well their ended their problem. Surprisingly, in such young age, they can behave like an adult and solve their problem without harm anyone.

What Girl Would Not Want the Choice?

9/10 is my rating. This is a 2016 Japanese romance movie 1 hour and 32 minutes in length. There was a short, 2 episode , mini series released in 2015 which was meant to promote the film. It is based in a popular Shoji manga series, “Kurosaki-kun no Iinari ni Nante Naranai”.

First I provide a Unique Synopsis then review

Synopsis

Yu Akabane (Voiced by: Mikako Komatsu; portrayed by: Nana Komatsu) changes not only schools but her entire demeanor after being bullied. Things do not exactly go smoothly at her new school as she immediately gets on the bad side of Haruto Kurosaki (Voiced by: Kaito Ishikawa; portrayed by: Kento Nakajima) when an accident leads her to cut some of his hair. Known as the black night, his punishment for Yu is to make her be he indentured servant. Annoyed with his constant arrogance and demands, Yu knicknames him black demon. Haruto’s best friend, Takumi Shirakawa, (Voiced by: Kensho Ono; portrayed by: Yudai Chiba) is called the white knight because of his fairer looks and kind demeanor. Once he realizes Haruto is actually interested in Yu, he decides to compete for her favor. The boys have always competed with each other in things. What starts as a game becomes a more serious rivalry when both boys determine they have feelings for Yu.

Review

If you did not watch the 2 episode series, the movie seems to start abruptly and you may wonder if you skipped some scenes. While it is not necessary to watch the 2 episodes prior to the movie, it does explain where it picks up. But if you stick with the movie it does return to what happened before and you catch up.

Overall I enjoyed the movie and my main criticism is the abrupt way it begins. Even with the two episodes out, they could have duplicated the story from the 2 episodes in the opening of the movie.

It ended happy and well.

Spoilers

As with a lot of Japanese shows, it is much “sexier” than most Korean and Chinese shows. It was not over done though. There were some intense kissing scenes but nothing beyond that. Just enough shown in the shower scene to illustrate the physical attraction without showing too much and leaving you wondering if you are watching porn. I liked that about this one.

I appreciated that they valued their friendships enough to give up on their love if it meant ending a long term friendship. But I liked that the friends were not so selfish that they expected their friends to give up just because they too liked the person.

Not as bad as it seems

This was such a cute, funny movie. I laughed out loud and 'awwwed' in equal measure. The bath scene was hilarious.

It was highly entertaining and has a lovely happy ending.

I didn't really understand why Kurosaki Haruto (played by Nakajima Kento) was such an enormous a** to her unless it was because of the old "You only hurt the ones you love." Not that it was an excuse but anyone watching this movie knew he liked her from the beginning. I was still thrilled when she chose him at the end.

I also don't understand why she accepted his behavior unless it was because he was a hottie and she still saw herself as an 'ugly' duckling. Which I don't think is an excuse either.

If you like cute, fluffy, romantic movies with a highly aggressive, possessive male lead give this one a try. Just remember it's all fiction and not real life.

However if you prefer your male leads to be sweet, gentle puppies this is definitely not the movie for you.

this movies gives the total anime feel. its like watching an anime but, it humanized. there were many hilarious, adorable and romantic scenes. I enjoyed them all. I also liked how the story was a love triangle. and there were so many things that contributed to making this love triangle even more complex and hard to get out of. 2 guys fight for 1 girl. this is also a drama and then there is a sequel after this. so if you want to know how everything was before she had her transformation/glowup then you gotta watch the show. it goes DRAMA, MOVIE THEN THE SEQUEL. just stating the order is you are interested. this movie can also be found on YouTube. that's where I watched it. Have fun. Hope you enjoy.

This is more or less a reflection of my comments on Kurosaki-kun (2015) as they are much the same anyway. Cool, done really well - a potentially far from amusing bully-masochist theme played very adeptly to finally bring out the comic slant. The clue to this happens quite soon in the movie. Nakajima's earlier delinquent role Bad Boys J obviously gave him suitable experience for this movie and Kurosaki-kun 2015 also. Some might say Kurosake was OTT and Akahane OTT passive but that's actually the nature of manga, it doesn't generally do "refined" (does it??) I would re-watch this as it's short and funny and suitable for a night when you need undemanding relaxation or cheering up.

There’s nothing new with this premise. But it is fun to watch anyway. Both suitors are sexy in their own way, it makes you wonder why she couldn’t just have both? One angel on her shoulder and one devil ;) The acting is better than some I’ve watched and the production value is really good. Plus the music doesn’t make me cringe. I would recommend watching the two episode prequel before this, however. The first episode is actually pretty funny and purposely has your standard manga tropes that were very tongue in cheek. It also build up the chemistry between the characters.

Not For Me

A strange love story. I don't know who's love was more between the 2 friends that was like brothers or the girl they both love. I didn't care for the abusive matters the devil treated the girl or the way they make it that it is the reason she falls in love. The acting was a little to much. I wish they would make these girls with a little more self esteem. It seem they are always naïve, innocent, stupid and let everyone run all over them. I know the characters come from comic books but I wish the author to these comic books would make these girl much stronger. At least at the end she wakes up and stand for herself.

It's better than the 2 prequel episodes


I would say it is definitely better than the two prequel episodes. I watched it much more willingly and I also felt that Nana's acting was better.
Compared to the prequel episodes, she has undoubtedly gained a little more self-confidence, although she is still not at the same level as in the manga.
But I reiterate the fact that Yuu still does pretty much what she did in the two prequel episodes, that is, she does whatever Kuro tells her to do, when she could say no or at least complain. Needless to say, the manga is much better.
Kazi is a big softie ^^
Although it was enjoyable to watch, I'm still convinced that I'm too old for this kind of thing, and I'm not talking about the cheesy scenes, but the kids acting like adults like this. I mean, even in the manga they are high school students, however, who knows why, that is less jarring... maybe it's the way they are drawn.
Being an adaptation and a movie, obviously many things from the main story were cut out. Like the fight between Meiko and Yuu, the sports festival, the school festival, etc. etc.
Regarding the character of Suzune (who does not appear in this film, but is only mentioned), I take back what I wrote in the previous review: she was an unnecessary addition, did not serve the purpose of the plot, and I will always wonder why they were there to do such a thing.
They really sped up the falling in love process between Yuu and Kuro. However, one thing I really appreciated was that the rivalry between Kuro and Shirakawa was felt quite a bit: his discomfort, his feeling inferior to Kuro and so on.
All in all, it is still a film that I would rewatch if I had nothing better to do and only if I had nostalgia for it.
