Uma Garota e Seus Três Amores (2016)

Lovely summer love story

This was my first japanese drama I ever watched and I must say I really fell in love with this show.
The main character of Misaki was so adorable that I would really love to have her as a friend.
And the handsome men around her... haha, I really envied her. Kento Yamazaki became my favorite actor after this drama series.
I also really love the main title song.
The story was about love but also about strong bonds in family, about challenges in life and some scenes were really funny.
I recommend this drama if you want to see some heartwarming summer story. You won't regret it.

I had my problem with this drama sadly, I wanted to love it but the way the characters acted was it hard at times.
The scenery and everything else, they way how it was shoot was beautiful, stunning and I would give it 10 Stars only for that but for a 10 Star drama it needs more.
I was fine with Misaki for the longest time maybe because Kiritani Mirei was so good in portraying her but when she was unable to talk her true feelings until the nearly very end, I started to get annoyed with her too.
Kanata was such an unlikable ML but because I love Yamazaki Kento I also had a soft spot for Kanata sure he was unfriendly at times but without him Misaki would still be unable to speak her true feelings!
Chiaki on the other hand annoyed me most of the time, he first ignored Misaki and then fell in love with her? Also it never was addressed why he lied to Kanata about being brothers or did I miss this, maybe I missed it..
Touma was my favorite of the brothers, he was such a ball of sunshine, cute, nice and the best little brother.
Overall story was okay, not the best, some things were unnecessary in my opinion, but writers have to add some things to make a good story right.
Overall a decent watch, if you love jdramas you might love this one as well.

Sweet lighthearted drama

I love dramas where the leads initially don't get along, and this really fulfilled that. A sweet, light-hearted romance, that wasn't filled with any problematic elements (ML wasn't really abusive or controlling, and gave FL space to grow).

I did find some plot points involving the second female lead unnecessary and watched those at 2x speed lol. But I found genuine chemistry between the leads, and that made me want to keep watching. I also loved that the drama was picturesque without being too ostentatious - it felt like I was watching real people's lives (love me my rich heir dramas but sometimes they're too much), in real people's homes.

It's a really good show to get your mind off of real life if you need that, which I certainly did when I watched it!

So cliché it made me laugh.

I watched this drama on a whim, a bit shocked at its existence honestly. I have a bit to say about it, so keep your mind open as it might seem a bit harsh.
I thought this drama was great up until episode 6. First off, Hanata annoyed the living hell out of me. His character was so off putting, such an absolute douche bag that I hated the idea of Misaki and him being together. I also didn’t understand how the characters feelings switched around so much. Misaki loses feelings for Chiaki, gains feelings for Hanata, Chiaki “loses” feelings for his girlfriend and develops feelings for Misaki… it’s a whole mess. Some writing flaws are:
1. What would’ve been the big deal with telling Hanata he’s adopted to begin with? Is it really worth losing your damn restaurant over fear of the truth? Why did that one leathery looking man even want the restaurant so badly in the first place, that he’d blackmail and use violence to get it?
2. Why did Chiaki continue dating his girlfriend after developing feelings for Misaki? And how didn’t he catch on to her obvious feelings towards him in the first place when he claimed he could tell how she felt at all times one multiple occasions?
3. Why did Hanata wait so long to tell Misaki how he felt in the end? Why did he care to wait so long if he planned on pulling a stupid stunt and running to her at the airport only to call her stupid? Sorry I hate his character.
Anyways, I don’t know if this gives you any picture at all of what this show was.
It was a ton of dramatic scenes over petty, immature misunderstandings, a lot of verbal abuse on Hanata’s part that just felt pointless towards his character. His character could’ve been perceived by viewers as cold without the unnecessary rude dialogue. Misaki wasn’t unlikeable, but her character’s child-like mannerisms made me forget constantly that she was 26. This is a Jdrama, so exaggeration was expected, but her maturity in her patisserie position was completely different from her level of maturity outside of that. Touma was a wreck, but also a bit relatable to me until the very end when he valiantly decided to become a chef. I was happy for him I guess, it was heartwarming.
Chiaki was hot, but a bit… boring. His character wasn’t triggered by much, which made him likeable, but sometimes I just wanted him to beat Hanata’s dumbass. Literally hardly corrected Hanata even after he verbally bullied Misaki. I know the bullying was supposed to be motivated with good intentions, but was it seriously always that way? Hanata was a red flag man… I just hated that he got the girl.
Anyways, my review concludes with this. The acting was great, music great, cinematography great, story meh, characters meh… that’s all:)

Good to watch

Suki na hito ga iru koto is an interesting Japanese drama to watch out.
It is a romantic drama with the background of a family secret.
Chemistry between all main characters are very good. Every actor has done a good job to portray each character.
The drama also shown some culinary shots as the main characters are chef and the family runs a restaurant. I loved the way heroine works hard to understand restaurant specialties and try her best to improve her skills. They shot Enoshima very nicely and beautifully. All male actors are handsome and all female actresses' are beautiful.
The Japanese spoken in this drama is simple to understand so everyone wats to start watching Japanese dramas to practice listening Japanese can start with this drama. I can watch this drama again. :)

i was really disappointed :/

this story could be brilliant if it has more depth than that
many side stories i saw it has no meaning except filling the drama
specially the gangster guy

i should admit that Japanese people doesn't have any sense of humor at all

and the FL they should choose someone else
this one is awful, her acting is horrible
she is the worst actress i've ever seen really
all her face expressions were in the wrong place
and what's wrong with her lips??
did someone tell her that she is gorgeous with that pause
she provoked me the whole drama till the limit i want to kick her in the face

and i didn't see any significance behind what the elder brother did
he Acknowledged his love to her although he was sure she doesn't like him anymore and he already told her that
so why he did that stupid action ?? i couldn't figure it out
really i was provoked
cause u declare your love to someone who already loved you back
but not to someone you are sure that he /she in love with someone else

and the younger bro. he carried envy his whole life for the middle bro. he can't get rid of it that easy in just 2 hrs
as they said in the drama
i hate it when the drama has illogical events



the most amazing one was Yamazaki Kento
but i was anxious to see him changed a little after falling in love and that cold should melt
at least a little :(


light nice one
just to watch once
it has it's fluffy, heartwarming moments .. but it's not my cup of tea

Ahh this dorama is not exactly for me despite the fact I usually like these kinds. But here there's so much unnecessary cheeseness, everything is somehow too perfect to me (meaning the background, faces, clothes, those cakes...), and don't exactly like the actors, though they're not bad, I've seen many that are way better. But there's just so much scene where I should feel for the characters and yet I don't and I'm just skipping those scenes where it is easy to figure out what's gonna happen or what they gonna say. It is just ... too much sugar here. And yup, Yamazaki Kento is certainly not for me. I like his character though and of course root for him here, but as an actor... he's just handsome and that's all, he can't really act and sometimes he's just too cute (like a kid) for the cool guy role, yet he gets it everytime (not bad, though, it is just that he's not for me, that's all).
Story is okay for once, there were scenes where I really didn't kno how this gonna end so there were surprises and twists which is good, couldn't rewatch it though. Music here is especially irritating for me, sorry...
