Life: Senjou no Bokura

All i can say is that this movie makes you believe in true love again and all of its forms. Its just that perfectly beautiful.

"As long as we're together there is nothing to fear..." Simple start and a simple end with an amazing story in such a short duration makes it a masterpiece. There is no way I can rate it less than 10!!

Story-great Acting-great Portrayal-great.

Sometimes we fail to see character development in series that extend up to 4-5 seasons but this mini series fulfilled that difficult task with ease.

It is a must must watch and my one of my fav BL series!

Just a little more rich content of the ending like in the manga in the director edition gives you more satisfaction...you will cry more though it's more idealistic.. Just maybe 3-5 minutes long, you will watch as the title Life... so strongly recommend the director edition ( available at Gogolala site).

It's a pity that the tv series version don't include the manga ending- maybe not long enough for 5 episodes but too short for too 4 episodes?

Overall it fits 90-95% of the feeling from the manga and it's a hidden gem - neither the show nor actors get the attention they deserve - May we all have the luck to meet someone to teach us - don't think too much just live like we play a game.

At 4 episodes this drama tells its tale quickly and confidently without a lot of the protracted misunderstandings and tortured restraint usually associated with BL outings. Leads are highly watchable.

This story draws you in, feels realistic and not like a Hollywood "tear jerker" or romantic fantasy. Two outsiders meet by chance, friendship evolves into love, of course with challenges ahead. The couples connection feels authentic. Issues of social and family expectations also evolve. But doesn't love involve a range of emotions and introduce many new experiences, adding to life's colour and adventure? But is "true love" really different to other forms of love? If such a construct could be reality based, I suspect this story portrays something like it. Love cannot be measured objectively and yet it is a very real experience for many/most of us; perhaps life's greatest adventure! Life on the line is a terrific metaphor used by this film. It totally captivated me and left me feeling I had just experienced something wonderful; 10/10!
