There's gonna be a Nobunaga Concerto 2 right??? I heard this drama was a manga adaptation, so excuse me if my review is not based upon how good of an adaptation it was. I haven't read the manga (don't plan to), n never even heard of it until this drama. I started because of Oguri Shun, and man did he deliver. He plays two different characters, but really four if u think about it: Saburo, Nobunaga, Saburo pretending to be Nobunaga, and Nobunaga pretending to be Mitsuhide. This man is amazing. But besides tht, this drama has some really touching moments. Saburo is this high school student who originally was a coward. I mean, he ran away from some girl before she could reject him. Anyways, he ended up being brought back in time to the Warring States period, and runs into Oda Nobunaga. Turns out tht Saburo is Nobunaga's doppelganger (they look identical), and Nobunaga gets Saburo to agree to act as him. I still don't understand why the original Nobunaga wanted Saburo to be him in the first place. He was tired or ruling? Idk, it's not clear, but anyways Saburo ends up pretending to be Nobunaga and everyone ends up loving him. His goal is to create a world without war. It's harder to accomplish such a goal than he thinks, and he runs into obstacles along the way. Saburo grows as a person (obviously), and it was a joy to watch. The only thing I was wondering about was what was going through the real Nobunaga's mind. I felt kinda bad for him. The music is wonderful!! I can hear it in my head as I'm writing this review. It fills my heart, and gives the drama tht feel only jdramas can have. For the first time, I really think the music is a big part of why I love this drama so much and why I felt the way I felt when watching it. I must mentiion tht episode 2 is my favorite!! The music is featured so beautifully tht I cried! Now as the ending was drawing near, I was racking my brain trying to figure out how it would end. If you've never read the manga like me, u had no idea. At first I was gonna write tht it was an extremely unsatisfying ending, but after it actually ended I just know there's gonna be a sequel. There has to be. I have too many questions. The ending is a head scratcher for sure. Anyways, I think this is a good drama. Solid. Not a must-see per say, but if u like historical dramas or oguri shun I think u should watch it. I don't know much about the actual Warring States period, but this was interesting. Wouldn't watch it again (maybe for the music), but I'm anticipating the sequel (there better be one).
