  • It Started with a Kiss

    1. It Started with a Kiss

    Taiwanese Drama - 2005, 20 episodes

    Very Classic!! This is indeed the best version among the rest together with its season 2 "They Kiss Again". 

    - Ariel and Joe's Chemistry is top notch as well as their acting.

    - Joe Cheng is definitely the best Zhi Shu/Naoki, he smiles a lot the moment he met Xiang Qin.

    - Their family were the cutest lol

    - Ariel portraying Kotoko is a kind of its own, i love her cute voice.

  • They Kiss Again

    2. They Kiss Again

    Taiwanese Drama - 2007, 20 episodes

    Both Japanese and Taiwanese version had season 2 but still, the Taiwanese version stands up.

    - If you enjoy the S1 then you'll definitely enjoy the S2.

    - The skinship of ArJoe is on the next level, plus i can't count how many times they kiss and i lost tract of it HAHA.

    - On the last few eps, it was full of emotions and you'll definitely fall in love with Zhi Shu on how deep his love for Xiang Qin. 

  • Itazura na Kiss: Love in Tokyo

    The main thing that made me like this version is Miki Honoka. He really portrays Kotoko as close to the Anime/Manga version and she's really cute tho. She is also my first japanese crush  

  • Itazura na Kiss: Love In Tokyo 2

    4. Itazura na Kiss: Love In Tokyo 2

    Japanese Drama - 2014, 16 episodes

    The thing that make this version's season 2 special is that they gave it a perfect closure in a point that we can say "Sighh, they finally have their complete family". The manga ends where Naoki ask Kotoko if she is pregnant and that's it. But they make it much more special because they show that Kotoko is indeed pregnant and the last scene show their family having a stroll in the park.

  • Playful Kiss

    5. Playful Kiss

    Korean Drama - 2010, 16 episodes

    Still decent adaptation but Taiwanese and Japanese was still my favorite.

  • Kiss Me

    6. Kiss Me

    Thai Drama - 2015, 20 episodes

    8.5

    This version is quite different since the write/director change a lot of things. A much lively Naoki and a much Independent Kotoko, so if you want to watch Itakiss that is quite different from the rest then you might consider this one. But for me, i still prefer the original pacing hehe.

  • Fall in Love at First Kiss

    7. Fall in Love at First Kiss

    Taiwanese Movie - 2019

    9.5

    This one is just a movie version. A lot of scenes were missing but they just wrap the important ones to fit it in a 2 hour movie. Still decent plus the OST is good.

  • Itazura na Kiss

    8. Itazura na Kiss

    Japanese Drama - 1996, 9 episodes

    I haven't completely watched this yet and i just have a glimpse on some particular episodes. The pacing is quite different from the original one but there is one thing i can say, and that is the Naoki on this version is the most handsome haha.
