Ao Haru Ride

Ao Haru Ride live action is a sweet and nostalgic take on the classic high school romance. The film follows Futaba, a girl trying to change her image in high school, and her reunion with Kou, a boy she once liked but who's now more distant and mysterious. The actors do a great job capturing the innocence and emotional tension of first love, with plenty of awkward yet heartwarming moments. While it doesn't dive as deeply into the characters as the manga or anime, it still manages to deliver a touching and relatable story about friendship, love, and personal growth. The soft cinematography adds to the romantic, youthful vibe, making it a pleasant watch for fans of the genre.

For the acting of the players who are very good, deepening the character of a story.

For the story, I don't like the point of view of mabuchi kou not respecting or playing with yoshioka futoba's feelings for the reason that his own problem is whether he chooses yoshioka or the other woman.

Maybe it's because I like and admire Natsuki Deguchi so it's like that.

That's my opinion. "For the neutral side", this movie is good at teaching us to be confident and to think well about decisions, especially those involving other people's feelings if they have made a decision must still be held to the decision even if it is not in accordance with reality.

Japanese Drama " Ao Haru Ride Season ! " is the adaption of the popular manga, which was also made into an anime series and a movie previously.

First of all, whoever did the cast did a miraculously good job. The two main leads, especially Kou, look exactly like the manga characters, which is uncanny.

Also, the drama creates the right atmosphere, light and youthful, which suited the school based story perfectly.

In addition, it was nice to have a deeper look into Kou and his troubled outcome.

However, the series, mainly due to its short length, was like a checklist of the key points of the original story, rather than a smooth plot with the right excitement and intensity, that takes its time to progress.

Finally, the performances were good by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, five out of ten.

As a fan of blue spring ride who saw both the manga and the anime, i must say that they really brought it into life. I love the casting, it was all perfect. We all need a yoshioka futaba in our lives. I dont think i'd be able to move on to this for atleast a week. Even the ost gives the same vibe the same as the anime, and also i really like the cinematography and all, it feels so bubbly and i really felt like i was in it. The actors and staffs really put their hearts onto it and it shows that they really studied and watched/read the whole series, because the anime didn't adapted everything in the manga but the live action did it for us and my expectations were exceeded. It was so accurate that when i was watching, i felt really proud and i cant just help but feel nostalgic because it was so many years ago when i first stumbled across the series "ao haru ride". Thank you for the production and everyone who were a part of the tv series for making me experience a world of theirs.
