Aún así: Las formas del amor

There are only 8 episodes. Every episode one of the main characters seem to get some "prime time".

It could have been a heartbreaking series. It could have been touching... but no, they failed gigantically. I felt nothing.

The series totally lacks romance, chemistry and (deep) conversations. It's every episode again "I shouldn't like him or her, but nevertheless...".

It's just boring. I wasn't that over-the-top positive about the Korean version, but this one is a million times worse. Not worth a minute of your time. And no I wasn't even fond of the looks of the male lead, but then again 'des goûts et des couleurs, on ne discute pas'.

The only positive about the series was the ending and I mean it in a non-sarcastic way, I liked how the series ended. At least something positive in a rather depressing series.

I was browsing on Netflix and wanted to watch something Japanese when I found it, I started watching it without watching the trailer, and the first scene immediately draw me in. Loved the cinematography, judging by a few snippets I've seen from the Korean version, this one seems visually much more striking. The music, the photographs, the editing. I love it!

It was only the butterflies - they looked very fake, and 1 storyline(Chiaki, a bit too soapy and 1 scene didn't make sense at all) that made me only give it 8 stars.

I kept thinking "I'd love to see this scene as a photograph"

In its own genre this is excellent. I will definitely rewatch it to practice Japanese.

Funny how the only review here is a poor narrow minded woman criticizing another beautiful woman for her haircut with weak arguments.

I really don't agree with her btw, i prefer this version, more contemplative, with charismatic actors and scenic shots.

We identify ourselves with this young woman, crushing on his attractive teacher. Like a teenager reading a romance book, we see ourselves falling for this unattainable ladies man. Forms of love, attachement and desire are questioned, and the more we watch, the more we grow more attached to the characters.

We get caught up in it. Best casting choice, Ryusei Yokohama is one the most handsome, seductive japanese actor, with expressive deep brown eyes. Sara Minami has this beautiful innocent natural face.

We follow simultaneously other stories.

I really recommend, I like this version.

The previous review that praised the Korean version made me sign up to imdb and leave my review:

This Japanese drama, "The Shapes of Love", is pure artistry. Every frame is so beautiful, seriously, the visuals are breathtaking. The whole thing feels like a poem come to life. The story flows with this beautiful rhythm, and the emotions hit me hard. The cast is incredible, their performances are so nuanced, every glance, every sigh speaks something without needing a dialog

Honestly, I was blown away. And the OST got me hooked immediately. If you're looking for something different, something artistic and moving, you need to watch this.

This remake easily turned the Korean version into a big joke.

When are the Japanese going to learn that bowl haircuts are not a good look, and they never will be. I believe they are out of touch of what is fashionable and what is not. The short hair doesn't fit the females face shape. When it comes to anything fashionable or even making dramas...the Japanese need to take notes from South Korea! The bowl hair cut ruined the entire series, to be honest. For anyone considering wasting their time watching this version of "Nevertheless" don't do it, just watch the original South Korean version, that one is a million times better. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
