Meninos Antes de Flores (2005)

Dei nota 1 por não poder dar nota 0.

Uma trama que romantiza assédio, quase estupro, agressão física, agressão verbal, agressão psicológica, violência, coerção.
O protagonista sequestra a protagonista, faz ela ser assediada, quase estuprada, faz ela sofrer vários tipos de agressão.
Tsukasa Domyoji orquestra situações onde Tsukushi é intimidada, agredida e humilhada publicamente.
Em uma cena específica do episódio 2, ele vai ao extremo, ele usa seu poder e influência para incitar outros alunos a assediar Makino Tsukushi, se não fosse por um dos F4 ela teria sido estuprada.
No mesmo episódio Tsukasa Domyoji contrata homens para sequestrar Makino Tsukushi. Logo que ela sai de casa a caminho da escola, esses homens a abordam e a sequestram, drogando-a para facilitar o sequestro. Após ser capturada, Tsukushi é levada para um local isolado, onde é mantida contra sua vontade. Esse ato é um exemplo claro do comportamento abusivo e coercitivo de Domyoji, que usa sua influência e poder para tentar controlar e intimidar Tsukushi.
Este tipo de comportamento é emblemático do abuso, coerção, violência e agressão que permeiam a série e há diversas cenas que reforçam essa dinâmica. Essa trama é problemática e doentia. Estou descepicionada com as pessoas que falam bem de doramas deste tipo. Essa sociedade patriarcal que vivemos vive dizendo que mulher gosta de ser maltratada, que o homem sabe o que a mulher quer mesmo ela dizendo não.
Assédio, estupro e agressão são comportamentos inaceitáveis em qualquer época ou cultura. Esses atos violam os direitos humanos básicos e não devem ser romantizados ou normalizados.
Este dorama reforça vários esteriótipos machistas e sugere que a violência e a agressão são formas aceitáveis de demonstrar afeto.
O final de "Hana Yori Dango" é extremamente problemático porque romantiza e normaliza comportamentos abusivos e tóxicos. Tsukushi acaba em um relacionamento com Tsukasa e se torna amiga dos outros membros do F4, apesar do sofrimento, abuso e agressão que eles causaram a ela e a outros alunos. Isso pode enviar uma mensagem perigosa de que é aceitável perdoar e se envolver com pessoas que te maltrataram, minimizando a gravidade do abuso e perpetuando a ideia de que o amor pode "curar" comportamentos abusivos. Isso não só trivializa a experiência das vítimas de abuso, mas também reforça estereótipos prejudiciais sobre relacionamentos e poder.
A representação de relações abusivas ou forçadas em qualquer mídia pode ser prejudicial e perpetuar estereótipos nocivos. É importante que o público critique e questione essas narrativas, promovendo uma compreensão mais saudável e respeitosa das relações humanas, infelizmente as pessoas estão aplaudindo este tipo de coisa.
É tido como um romance, um clássico, um dorama que você precisa assistir e na verdade é isso que falei, um lixo.
E não bastando 1 merda dessa, tem outras 5 versões. Fora o mangá e o anime.

Hana Yori Dango was the reason I discovered dramas. I was watching the anime (and loving it) when I found out it had a "live action" version. I downloaded it and started watching it and the rest is history. Going back to the present, a few days ago I decided to rewatch it, because I wanted to see if it was as good as I remembered or if I was just being biased because it was my first drama. My conclusion: It WAS good.
I think almost everybody who is familiar with this story knows that there are several adaptations for it. It all started with the manga, then the anime, then the 1995 movie and then 4 drama adaptions from China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea. This version, the JDrama one is my favorite. Reasons? Here I go.
Story:
The story isn't your typical Cinderella. Yes, there's a poor girl and a rich guy and yes, he falls in love with her, but this Cinderella definitely doesn't want the charming prince to return her glass slipper. For me this story is a master piece not because of the love story, but because of its crudeness. It deals bluntly with heavy issues (even more forbidden in Japan) like bullying, rape, tolerance, corruption, class differences and the general injustice that is high school. I think this a story that every teenage girl should know of, because it says that you don't have to be anything to please a guy.Instead, you should worry about the things surrounding you and how you can make a change.
The love story is pretty good and addictive too. You have a strong female character who deals with a LOT of things throughout the story. She isn't searching for love, she has her hands already full with school and her family. She isn't pretty OR nice. Neither is she elegant or flirty. BUT, she is loyal to her friends and always defends people against injustice. She is honourable and honest, she always speaks her mind, even if it will get her in huge trouble afterwards. She's also fearless and does what most people are afraid to. Watching this now, I realize that Makino has been my role model throughout my teenage years and has helped me morph into the person I am today. I am still very far from being like her, but she's a truly inspirational character who makes me always push myself harder.
Then there's Domyouji, who is far from your perfect prince charming. To put it mildly, he's a total jerk and a bully. He's used to getting his way and everybody is afraid of him. He's a really rotten human being, if that can even be called human. But, when Makino confronts him instead of running away from him, he falls instantly in love with her. For me one of the greatest thing about HYD is seeing Domyouji slowly changing from being the monster that he was at first to a truly beautiful human being. His love for Makino makes him grow as a person, become someone kind and adorable, and he learns a little more about life, and accepts that he can't always have his way.
Acting:
All the cast does a perfect job. They made the characters from the manga come alive completely, instead of changing them. The chemistry between Inoue Mao and Matsumoto Jun is so real that I often wish they were a couple in real life while watching them, and the chemistry between the F4 is great too. They really came together as a group of friends who always have their back for each other.
The thing about this story is that you don't say: wow this person is a great actor/actress. It is the kind of awesome acting that makes you forget they're acting. It's simply natural and perfect.
Music:
The OST is really good. It's not mad good, but it's the kind of music that gets stucked in your head for several days in a row. It has been on my iPod for several years, and I sometimes use it as a ringtone from my phone.
Rewatch:
I've watched this several times and I will keep rewatching it, because I learn something new about it every time I watch it.
Overall:
This is one of those dramas that for ME, is really a must. If you haven't watched it, I recommend it greatly. I don't know if you'll think of it as high as I do, but I seriously think you'll like it, what are you waiting for? :)
