Pacing Issues, Good Friendship Theme
LIKES:
Locations, cinematography, use of props, costumes/wardrobe, were all good.
Music was good and appropriate, but again nothing too memorable.
The friendship of the main 5 was really well delivered.
The message of taking action, communication and trust, were strong throughout the show, especially with Ken’s time jump situations.
DISLIKES:
PRODUCTION:
Some scenes the waves or background sounds overpowered the actor/actress voices. Some shaky camera moments too and zooming in too close, (if I can see nose hair it’s too close!). Also pretty lame FXs for the Fairy intervention moments.
DIRECTING: reactions or under reactions too way too long, which is bad directing. PACING: slow, very very slow. They had Iwase Ken (Yamashita) running around way too much, seemed like filler.
WRITING:
They tried to make the time jumps work, but without enough character development, the “changes” fell flat. This had potential and got lost in delivery. Way too repetitive to have real substance.
It’s supposed to be a romance, but there was none; no chemistry, almost no kisses, very little of everything romantic. Every time Ken tried to speak up, he was ignored abruptly. He was actions speak louder than words, but the girl didn’t appreciate anything. So can she really say she liked him? And it was the typical cliche stuff of guy has to ask girl out, rather than having both pursue each other. It’s understandable that he took way too long to verbally express anything, but she’d have to be super dumb to fall for a guy just saying “I like you”! The 5 are supposed to be great friends, but Ken and Tetsuya constantly bully Hisashi. Some scenes they literally threw Hisashi aside and it wasn’t funny. Was that their attempt at comedy?
ACTING: Even from Yamashita Tomohisa was subpar. He tried with what he was given, but didn’t really connect with the viewer.
OVERALL: I liked the friendship theme, but not much else. I was disappointed throughout, even the special wasn’t very good. I won’t watch it again. There are so many other rom-coms or fantasy romance dramas out there, even die hard fans of Yamashita might not make it through all the episodes.
