Finished watching Nobuta Wo Produce. Another J-drama with the school theme, this time about two boys “producing” a girl with no self confidence into the most popular girl in school.
It is simple, yet deep and meaningful, dealing with things such as friendship, sacrifice and social image. Great plot with a nice blend of funny, inspiring and touching moments. Found the last two episodes especially touching and sad (in a happy way) and even leaked some tears. Woah Jap dramas are good at making you cry, whether it is happy-sad or sad-happy or sad-sad.
Good looking actors and cute actresses who act really well. Love Mariko and Nobuko. Shuji and Akira… would if I were a girl (don’t wish to though). Makes me realise what I’m missing here. Sigh…
Anyway, I highly recommend watching this.
Some of my favourite dialogues:
“Have you gone to a place and regretted it?”
“Mm hmm, yes I have.”
“You came back by yourself?”
“No, I came back with friends.”
“I see.”
“My friends brought me back.”
Perhaps only people can save people.
“Its lonely being lied to.”
“But… lying for a long time can be lonely too.”
“Don’t you care more about yourself?”
“To do something for someone else, does it mean you’re not caring about yourself?”
