PLOTLESS

I have such expectation before watch this series because of Long's acting previously in the other series are amazing. Here I am trying to get through a painful 40 minutes of cringe acting and plotless series. They legit just waste my time and I try to give them a chance but seriously, it is just painful. I try to skip to Long's part only but god damn, even his good acting couldn't make up for such boring series. There is no conflict, there is no plot development and there is no backstory of who are they and like what is the conflict really is? This series is like a bunch of rich kids decided to make BL series without having a proper plot. TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. Please trust me if you wish to waste your time, be my guest and watch this series. This series is just NOT IT!

painfully beautiful

so well done that it makes my heart hurt

this drama is heavily family based and focuses on the day to day situations they each have, whether its the parents or the kids. what i really like about this so far is how normal it is and yet it can make me feel so many emotions. it's the perfect blend of everything — comedy, drama, slice of life. reminds me of home. it makes me think of all those good times i had as a kid with my family with no worries or responsibilities. crying as i write this LOL1!!!!

the characters are really easy to fall in love with — they all remind me of someone i know and i see myself in all of them at the same time. the parents are naggy and caring and it makes me miss my parents. it makes me miss the carefree days i had when i was younger where my biggest worry was homework. tbh idrk what to say because i dont have the right words but this show , that i'm not even finished, is a masterpiece. its nostalgia as a show. its heartbreak and joy and love and loss. its everything :(

A lilttle cringe

This is a good series to binge-watch to kill time or watch well you're occupying yourself with something else. The storyline isn't anything extraordinary but it's easy to understand and still very enjoyable. The acting is good but the romantic scenes can very cringe and I have had to skip a bit of the story because of second-hand embarrassment, the romance between the main couple also seems a little forced. The side characters aren’t anything special and some of them come off as a little annoying like the two that keep posting the main character's love life online. I have enjoyed Nitiman so far and plan on continuing watching the series. If you are bored and looking for something to watch Nitiman’s worth watching.

Not for me

Oh, this was not it. Everything that worked in “Love Me, Love My Voice” did not work here, I fear. This was not for me, and I feel like everyone was doing too much and nothing at all at the same time. Why does the male lead immediately care so much for a girl he doesn’t know? To the point that she literally moves in with him, like? Girl, he could be a freak, aren’t you scared of getting offed?? LYY was also just too intense for me. Bro loved looking at Yin Guo like this ?️??️, it made me uncomfortable??. When she put that band aid on his leg… I thought I was going to ? because why were they doing that much over a scratch?? I thought I could push through to get to their dating era, but the episodes just drag and drag – the leads just looking at each other wide-eyed, doing too much and yet nothing at all. It wasn’t for me, moving on to the next drama.

I have never seen a love story like this before and now I'm just in love with that. The main boy characters are completely different but they're all so lovely, it's hard to chose one. I decided me for the director because he has a strict but also friendly and romantic person... I mean, he bought her shoes! But the other two are also lovely persons. The best friend of the main girl character is also lovely because she said: 'I'm jealous. You have 3 boyfriends and I have don't have any.' She's a lovely character to. And the serie has a good humor, it's funny to see the main girl character having trouble with those three boyfriends,

Worth the wait

Man I have been waiting for this forever. And the start of this drama didn't disappoint! Yang Hua a quirky meek introvert genius who is too lazy to work hard, yangmi a hardworking female lawyers
that needed to be married so she would not face glass celieing aka women not progressing at work for their marital status, she picks yang Hua photos and says that he is her husband, all that he doesn't, thinking that they would never meet each other, this lie went for 2 years until fate made them encounter and thus begins their pickering and a possible contract marriage. 10/,10 it has been so long since I loved a drama this much

Natsu, petite fille des montagnes ...

Les Asadoras de la NHK ont un format très particulier 15min/jour, pendant 6 mois. Il faut pouvoir trouver son compte pour accrocher aussi longtemps à une histoire, qui soyons honnête tirent parfois en longueur. Pour ma part j'adore ce format qui permet de lancer des épisodes en rafale. De plus, ses dernières années, les thèmes abordés, la qualité d'écriture et la pléthore de stars en premiers rôles ou en guest arrivent à vous tenir en haleine malgré les moments un peu plan plan. C'est presque le cas de Natsuzora qui offre à Suzu Hirose un premier rôle à la hauteur de son talent et qui justifie à elle seule le visionnage. Comme cela semble devenir la norme avec ce format on découvre son personnage enfant et on suit sa vie sur plusieurs décennies. Bien moins palpitante, à mon avis que celle de Suzume dans Hanbun Aoi (mon Asadora préféré) on trouvera quand même son compte d'émotions dans la première partie de l'histoire et quelques rebondissements, certes attendus redonneront un regain d'intérêt. Découvrir la vie difficile des japonais du siècle dernier, partis coloniser Hokkaido et des orphelins d'après-guerre ma fait verser ma petite larme.
Dans cette version japonaise d'Heidi (les similitudes sont quand même très fortes même si on essaye de nous vendre 'la petite maison dans la prairie') l'histoire nous touche par les liens créés par Natsu et son grand-père adoptif. Personnellement si je trouve que les rôles secondaires manquent de profondeur dans cette partie (et trop caricaturaux plus tard, pour les collègues de Natsu adulte), Awano Sari qui joue Natsu enfant et Kusakari Masao le grand-père vont vous faire fondre. Plus tard, la recherche désespérée de son frère et de sa soeur réussiront aussi à vous tirer une larme supplémentaire.
Mais soyons honnête, si je me suis plongé dans cette histoire ce n'est évidement pas pour les paysages bucoliques et les vaches d'Hokkaido ni pour suivre le combat difficile de l'émancipation des femmes japonaise, fil rouge de beaucoup d'Asadoras, mais pour le thème principal : la genèse de l'animation japonaise. Car comme beaucoup, avant de m'intéresser aux dramas, je suis un fan d'animation et de mangas. Et on suis bien les pionniers de l'animation dans cette histoire. Le terme 'Pionnier' semble être le fil conducteur de la série tout au long des 156 épisodes. On découvre les premiers films d'animations, le métier d'animateur de coloriste, de doubleur, les premiers studios d'animations, etc ... Cerise sur le gâteau des séquences d'animation ont été spécialement créés pour l'occasion, avec vers la fin de la série des un épisode quasi entier animé (d'une qualité un peu décevante par rapport au générique d'ailleurs). Car si on reconnait facilement la Toei dans le studio où Natsu travaille il était hors de question d'utiliser des séquences de film réels. Et on s'amusera donc à chercher à quel film fait référence cette séquence. Jusque dans le générique, créer par une jeune animatrice, chanté par le groupe Spitz et qui nous rappellera tellement le Heidi de Miyazaki. L'ombre du maitre plane sur les épisodes et certains des personnages ont du hérité de traits de caractère. Tezuka et Go Nagai ne sont pas très loin non plus. Voilà pourquoi je conseille cette série, qui ravira tous les fans d'animations d'après-guerre jusqu'au années 80, les vieux comme moi, quoi. La musique colle parfaitement à la série et vous vous surprendrez à fredonner les thèmes principaux. Un de mes Asadoras préféré.

I absolut love this drama!!!!!!
Many haven't watched this but i really really love this drama. I Really recommend this drama for everybody who likes family dramas with romance and a nice storyline.
When they made this drama most of the cast was unknown and it were their first time acting in a drama but their acting is really good! So i really loved the cast and their characters!!! The drama is a little 52 episodes for some people but for me it was perfect.
But in the beginning some parts were to slow but is normal, and if you hang on you will realise that this is a really good drama.

Not My Cup of Tea

I don't understand. If it wasn't I want to watch Wang Yibo and Zhang Huiwen's acting, I wouldn't have watched this much. The story and plot don't improve at all since the beginning. Too dragging and boring for me.

But what bothered me the most was the character of Fei who was too Mary Sue. She wasn't perfect at the beginning of the story, but under the big names of her grandfather and mother made her get all kinds of convenience. Everything seemed to be held on the red carpet just for her.

I decided to stop watch and continue with another drama. Sorry Yibo, even seeing your acting can't make me continue.

NB. There was nothing wrong with Zhao Liying's acting, only the script and the story not my cup of tea.

Great drama, poor casting.

The plot isn't special. A pitiful woman and a powerful man slowly fall in love. Very typical for a kdrama, but this show still manages to make the cliche very interesting every episode.

The FL isn't special, She's just a normal mom trying to make a living. She's living a comfortable life and has friends around her. But somehow she's still very interesting character. Maybe it's the whole fish out of water where she first dwells into the world of private education. Maybe it's because it's fun to see how a pitiful woman gets an opportunity to feel loved. Maybe it's both.

Now the casting problem. She was a national athletes so she was like early to mid 20s. Her adapted daughter was in kindergarten so 5-6 yo back them. Now she's in HS so it's been around 10 years since she adopted her. The actress is 49 and the character she's playing is in her 30s. Don't get me wrong she looks great for her age but it feels really forced when people say she looks like young for being a mother of a HS student.

I love the show for the relationship between the mother daughter and how the ML is helping them but I can't feel the chemistry between the main characters. Even the teenager's love life was more interesting.

Another bad RomCom with bad acting, don't waste your time.

Only for Love is a rom-com about a cold CEO and a financial reporter.

I watched about 8 episodes of "Only for Love"; don't waste your time. Here are the reasons why I am dropping it:
- Only For Love: The plot is boring, and the character Bai Lu playing is weak and a waste of her talents.
- Dylan Wang is not convincing as a cold CEO. There is no on-screen chemistry between the lead actors.
- For Dylan Wang's fan, I am sorry, but to me, he is a one-dimension actor who can't act.

I have wasted almost 8 hours with something so boring and unreal. Just because Dylan Wang is popular in LBFD doesn't mean that he should be teamed up with everyone, even the good actress.

I heard he will team up with my favorite actress, Zhao Lusi. I hope it will not disappoint me. I am dropping this drama because the plot is stupid, and the ML does not do justice to team up with Bai Lu (one of my favorite actresses.)

I give it a 5.0 rating because of the bad plot, acting, and production quality.
