I think that people are to critical when it comes to this drama. I have to say I really enyojed watching it and have a hard time understanding why a lot of people call it slow and boring.

I'm a big fan of Yamapi, so it was obvious that I would give this a try. And I wasn't disappointed. The plot was a bit different from other dramas, or maybe I should say it was less drama than in other dramas. And believe it or not, I found that to be really nice.

It's a story about love and friendship and about finding your way in life. But, it was realistic and a story that could happen to anyone and that's why I found it to be different from other dramas. It's nice to once in a while watch a drama that could happen in real life and somehow I found myself recognizing so much that happened to my daily life.

Overall, a goodfeel drama with good cast. Watch it!

Summer nude started off promising but sadly became very predictable towards the last episodes. The pacing was slow, but I do not mind that at all, in fact I enjoyed it thoroughly. This drama is at times just one big sappy love story, but I do feel that the relationships presented in there were both realistic and relateable. So while the pace was slow, I did enjoy the story and felt connected to it. If the ending hadn't gotten so predictable and because of that, a little boring, I probably would've given it a higher rating.

Summer Nude was a fun little show to quick binge over a few days. I started watching it when it broadcast last summer, but took a break from it about 4 episodes in. When I picked it up, it got substantially better.

In terms of the story, it starts out very cliche and romanticized. Yamapi plays his standard lovelorn guy who is way too nice for his own romantic well-being. He has a lot of facepalm moments, and I felt like he was a Disney character. The plot was a little unbelievable and tried sometimes to be 'soap-opera-ish' in the way they dealt with relationships. But the found a way to reel it back in before it became too over the top. But it's a little head-scratchy at times.

The cast was amazing, finding a way to really create characters that fit their actors/actresses. Besides Yamapi's typecast character, everyone else really felt fresh. I liked how they got top notch guys that you can buy into. Even the characters in their little romance side story were cast. Especially Ricky!

The music was fantastic! I'm a big fan of Tomohisa's music, so 'Summer Nude '13' was a big hit for me. They really created a nice smooth track list of BGM that didn't go over the top and distract from the story.

This is not a show you rewatch though. It wasn't a bad show, but it wasn't great either, and the plot isn't the strong point of the show. It's the characters. This is one of those shows you watch once when you're feeling that drama fever and are caught up on your current shows.

Overall, I liked the show. It's not a show you put at the top of your watch list, but it's a good watch on a boring day with nothing to do. Not much suspense or drama in this show, so it's not a must watch. But it's a fun watch if you have nothing better to do and have seen Densha Otoko or Proposal Daisakusen.

This drama was a huge disappointment. I almost want to call it Summer Snooze because that's what it was. I was originally excited about the drama because it seemed like it would be the drama of the summer given it's beach setting, all-star cast and heavy promotion. Out of the summer's dramas, it ended up being one of the most disappointing.

Story- The story in itself had a lot of potential. The story itself really isn't bad at all, just the execution of the story. I know Japanese dramas tend to move at a slow pace and don't rely on frequent twists and turns, but even this moved a bit too sluggish for me. For that, I can only give the story a six because of the poor execution. One huge plot point that was never explored was Natsuki's relationship with her former fiancee. If he ditches her at the alter, there had to be a big explanation; yet there wasn't. All we got were scattered flashbacks that contributed very little to story. I honestly wish it were explored further. Her ex-fiancee could have been incorporated as an actual character, just like Asahi's ex-girlfriend was. The ending was pretty basic and extremely cliche; in fact the last scene is very similar to the ending of Yamapi's much, much better drama Proposal Daisakusen.

Acting/Cast- I wish I could separate the acting and the cast and give a rating for each. The cast would get a high rating but the acting...not so much. Yamapi is as deadpan as ever here. Instead of engaging the viewer in with his character he really does nothing with the character at all. He's just reciting lines, not acting. The rest of the cast pulled the bulk of the weight and put on satisfactory and good performances. In fact, Katsuji Ryo who played Asahi's best friend actually outshone him. Based on acting skill alone, he probably deserved the lead role.

Music- I actually found it to be enjoyable. I like the ending theme song and the opening theme. It was suitable for the drama and I would listen to the soundtrack again.

Rewatch Value- Really, there is nothing outstanding or memorable about this drama to warrant a re-watching. If anything, the only re-watching appeal would be to see the cast in swimsuits.

Overall, it wasn't so terrible that I had to stop watching. Since I watched it while it aired it only took a mere one hour out of my week. I can honestly say that if I chose to watch it after it aired I may not have continued.

After watching so many tragically dramatic romantic tales of late, Summer Nude (a somewhat misleadingly titled picture of innocent young romance) was a refreshingly light hearted and fun-filled experience, spinning a narrative of budding love and friendship in an idyllic seaside setting. Other reviewers cite complaints of slow pacing, but I felt like this benefited this easygoing story and permits you to simply relax, unwind, and connect to the lovable characters.

Whilst not necessarily meant to be the star of the show, I feel that the character of Hanae (played by the beautiful and talented Toda Erica) brought a lot of warmth to the plot and I found myself unwittingly rooting for her at every step. Her charm and gentleness engages the viewer in a way that few characters can, pulling the entire cast along with her to make being part of this story a heart-warming experience.

The setting is pretty and well captured (as it should be considering that photography is one of the key concepts in the show) and the soundtrack does its best to match the feel of the whole series perfectly. Whilst enticingly beautiful, it is apparent, particularly when indulging in this show over a short period of time, that the range of content in the soundtrack is somewhat limited. Every emotive moment, of which there are many, is accompanied by the same melody. This issue of repetition becomes glaringly obvious when the same theme is used to highlight the comic relief character's amusing, and hopelessly inept, emotional diatribes.

Don't let this small fault sway you from enjoying the show however, since this is only a small part of what Summer Nude has to offer. I would recommend this to anyone looking for some romantic light relief, interwoven with an enviable tale of friendship and personal growth.

NOTE: If you didn't watch this, YOU should be glad! Because it would've been a waste of time of your life.

One Word ---- "EPIC FAIL"

From the first episode, the atmosphere is relaxed and has a light tone because it's indeed a "Summer Drama". I believe the plot has a potential but they didn't develop a twist, screenplay, storyline and character depth. The drama is just a plain itself as you can read from the synopsis, make your own prediction and.. tadaaa! You are 100% correct.

Okay, we have a bunch of friends bonding around here and there, and everywhere. We can feel that too because their friendship is somehow relatable. My! What a cinematography! What a music! What an acting! A lovely scene. You can feel the freshness of Summer Sea, Azure Sky and Cool Breeze and you'll enjoy it the most if you have a 14-inch TV or more than that. Along with the presence of music, I can assure that you'll love it. I swear. Witnessing like that makes you go -

"Aw, it's nice to be young!" (^o^)

Hhhmm.. am I the only here? *laughs*

Then again, the story is a piece of crap and I think the writer has ran out of ideas and script, perhaps? I noticed that some of its dialogues doesn't really necessary to be said, I just hope that the writer improved some of its quotes since his previous 'Proposal Daisakusen' is good and inspiring actually.

Seriously though, Why do you have to make this series? What's your intention really? You've wasted an expensive budget! Look, there's two highest-paid actress and Yamapi and branded gadgets such as Canon, Playstation and etc.

I'm sorry Erika, you were my favorite and I like your redeeming acting here so you don't have to blame yourself, ne?

And.. Yes, it's not a triangle-love story but more than rectangle, hexagonal, diagonal or whatever shape you want. Please, tell me that I'm not the only one who's ranting about this drama. It's so frustrating that I'm about to choke. :/

PS.
If you're a Yamapi fan and you're planning to watch this, then go! I'm not going to stop you, just to remind you of my concern above this 'NOTE' review.

All in all, I'm very sorry that I've vent my frustration to this drama. I'm so sorry.. that's it.

Here's a trivia about their names and its meaning:

Asahi -- Morning Sun
Natsuki -- Summer and Hope
Hanae --- Flower Blossom

The story line was good enough to keep me watching or i should say i liked the slow pace of this story. The story wasn't original but it was realistic and sometimes i can actually really on the story ahahah. The cast was amazing they played their parts very well. The cast was totally in sync with the characters or should i say they really match their roles. The music was great. The music seemed to be summer themed i think. The re-watch value was low because you won't get excited over it because it doesn't have that much of a plot twist. Overall it was a great drama.

I don't really recommend this to people whom doesn't seem to like slow place drama. In addition i shall thank the producer, director & casts to creating such a beautiful movie. anyways this is my first reiew

I know my rating of a 3 might seem harsh, but I'm just rating ACCORDINGLY to MDl. A 3 is considered ''poor.'' And trust me, this drama deserves AT LEAST a ''poor'' rating. I would've given it a 4, but a 4 means ''decent.'' And this is worse than just ''decent.''

At the beginning, it was slow, but it wasn't that bad. I thought ''hey, maybe this will get better.'' I actually started watching this only for the cast. I miss seeing Yamapi. I haven't watched a romance drama of his for a while, and same with Erika. They're my favorite Japanese actors and I was SO excited to see them onscreen again after a long time, since their other newest dramas didn't seem so intereting... but no, this was a TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT.

First of all, where is the chemistry? I didn't see any chemistry between Yamapi and Karina or even Yamapi x Erika... ? Like, really? I couldn't get into this drama ONCE. Well, maybe sometimes there were some cute scenes and I was fangirling... but there wasn't even that much.

And I thought that this was supposed to be a love triangle... but, I don't know what you would call this... ? It's all mixed up, so confusing. He likes her, and she likes the other, and the other likes another, the ex shows up, it gets complicated... now.. ugh, I don't even know where to end.

All in all, this drama was a WASTE of time for me. I was so disappointed. If you're a fan of the cast, then you might give it a try... but if you're not really a huge fan or Yamapi, Erika, or Karina... just don't even waste your time.

It is really hard to write a review without being all spoilery... I'll try my best!

I must admit, I started watching Summer Nude because of the cast: my goodness, what a cast! Yamapi, Karina, Erika Toda and even Nagasawa Masami (yes, my little ProDai heart started beating so fast), Katsuji Ryo, Itaya Yuka... oh my worlds collide. And I wasn't disappointed, I must say.

It has everything we want from a getsu9: great actors, good music, beach, sun, a bunch of friends and love triangles/squares/pentagons/hexagons... The overall story is not THAT great though: in my opinion it lacked a little something, you know, that thing that can hook you up for the whole series and which is originally provided by the main characters.

I ended up being more interested in secondary characters (Mami, Takashi, Secchan), and especially in Hikaru. I honestly didn't know much about Kubota Masataka (well, i've only seen him in Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu) but I think his acting is really good. I love his character so much, and who wouldn't: a young man who is always super quiet, loves reading, not that handsome and wearing glasses (oh how I love clichés), doesn't speak much, works in a small video-rental shop and is desperately in love with Hanae (Toda Erika) who's herself involved in a one-sided love with the gorgeous Asahi (Yamapi) . Good enough for me!

What's really agreable is the background: we can follow a group of friends enjoying summer in their small town by the beach, it's hot, they have fun, they eat, they drink (A LOT), all this served with some good soundtrack.

I would not call this a must-watch, 'cause I pretty much knew how it is going to end from the first episode. (yeah, I am patiently waiting for the last episode to be subbed but still, it's obvious.) It remains a nice story for those who long for summer!

Typical Drama! Really nice to watch it during summer time!! you'll wish you would have fun in the beach with your friends!! Average Story about love.

Just hate with the scenes with the stupid couple really like to edit my video removing their scenes. very annoying!!

But so-so like the show!!
Somehow Yamashita Tomohisa's Acting the same in every role he had.
you can't really feel if he's sad, angry. overall like the whole cast!!
wish the title would be "Summer Love" instead of Summer Nude!!

I must warn you that my rating might be subjective due to my liking of cast, scene or genre.
I love this dorama first of all because of the casts: Yamapi, Toda Erika, Nagasawa Masami! Second, it's because the genre. Third, because Yamapi being a photographer, it's such a pleasure seeing him behind the camera ^_~

Heart warming. That's what I thought about this dorama. The plot and conflict are not too spectacular, the plot somehow a bit slow and predictable too, but the story about friendship always melt my heart, so I gave the high score for that.

Rencontres, et nouveaux départs un été sur la plage...

Des amis d’enfance se retrouvent tous les ans dans une paillote sur la plage, et arrive une étrangère qui va cristalliser les regrets, les espoirs, et amener à réfléchir sur l’avenir.

Ce que j’en ai pensé :
Premier charme : le drama est rythmé par le bruit des vagues, car tout ou presque se passe sur la plage d'une petite ville au bord du Pacifique pendant les trois mois de l'été. En ce mois de janvier gris et morose, c'est un vrai plus.
Deuxième charme : l'amitié, qui est le ressort essentiel de l'histoire.
C'est le moment charnière de la vie où il faut faire des choix, entrer dans l'âge adulte, quitter une jeunesse insouciante et le confort d'un environnement qu'on a toujours connu.
Les quatre héros se retrouvent tous les ans sur cette plage, Asahi le photographe (Yamapi) espérant toujours en vain le retour de la fille qui l'a quitté sans un mot 3 ans avant, Hanae(Toda Erika) est amoureuse en vain depuis 10 ans d'Asahi et tout semble devoir demeurer en l'état jusqu'à la fin des temps... Sauf qu'arrive une jeune femme, Natsuki, (Karina) venue se marier là et que le fiancé abandonne au beau milieu de la cérémonie. Ne sachant trop que faire elle se laisse convaincre de rester pour aider à l'ouverture de la paillotte du bord de mer, lieu pivot de tous ces jeunes gens et des touristes...Et sa présence va entraîner des prises de conscience,  et le changement radical de la vie de tous.

J'ai beaucoup aimé l'atmosphère de ce drama, (les dialogues sont très bien, très justes !) et la fraîcheur de ces jeunes qui peuvent aussi bien faire une bataille de pistolet à eau pour amuser un enfant malade que réfléchir sérieusement et lucidement aux nécessités d'avancer dans la vie. C'est un peu long, je crois que 10 épisodes auraient suffi au lieu de 11,mais c'est paisible, serein, heureux  et je ne me suis pas ennuyée, et je crois que ce drama ferait un excellent drama doudou.
