Reavel
Valhalla
Esta resenha pode conter spoilers
To understand or digest this story you have to open your mind, watch the drama for what it is "a simple story" and make your own judgment while you watch the characters grow and their story unfold.
It is slow paced and it is an old drama filmed in 1996 but even after knowing that I believe this story was ahead of its time. I recommend you to ignore the tags of betrayal and infidelity as well as the comment section. Yes I gave it a 10. I've my reasons.
_________
Story: The words LOVE and RELATIONSHIP has many meanings... many layers and this drama is a vivid testament to that. When they all meet it is like it is heaven sent and they each are part of a puzzle that is now complete. But... could it be that easy? The answer is NO. It's not easy. It takes a lot of work and commitment to pursuit your own happiness.
The characters seem simple, somewhat innocent and naive. They're all so lost and empty at the start of the drama. You discover they are complicated as you learn about their past.. where they came from. As the story moves on (which is a timeline of around 10yrs since they met) they all learn to love themselves, respect and value each other for who they are and what they bring to this "relationship" to make it work.
Acting/Cast: Acting and cast was very good. Each actor embodied their characters emotions well. You could feel and identify with their situations and stories. Great character development.
Kimura Takuya's (Kakeru) Full of dreams and insecurity. So much love to give but so doubtful about himself.
Miyazawa Rie (Hana) at first she can be annoying but she grows on you.. at least she did for me. She seems weak but she is strong.
Tamura Masakazu (Ebisawa) sometimes it was like watching an older version of Kakeru full of experience.
/Sidenote: Kimura Takuya's hair deserved and award or something. He was so young here. Ahhh... so gorgeous.
Music: The theme song is Alfie sang by Vanessa Williams and I was kind of wondering WHY? but after looking at the complete lyrics it's a woman asking Alfie "What's it all about, Alfie? and then goes to explain her take on life and love. It makes sense... so much sense.
"What's it all about, Alfie? I know there's something much more. Something even non-believers can believe in. I believe in love. Alfie... Without true love you just exist. Alfie... Until you find the love you've missed. You're nothing, Alfie..."
Rewatch Value: I wouldn't watch it again but I believe that you should totally watch and then recommend to others cause it really is a well done story.
Hope this helps!
