Has anyone checked this out? I watched the first episode today, RAW. I have to say it's not bad, but I can see it being predicable. My thought is... I see it going that way as well. It would be an entertaining watch if they make it entertaining, but the first episode was kind of a snoozefest. Hope ...

You might want to put that under a spoiler tag, not everyone watches the episodes right after they air.

Oh yeah, since I'm new to the J-Drama scene, I find it pretty funny how the full length OP was cut down to like 15-20 seconds after the fourth episode. Is that common practice? If not, maybe that's where the change occurred and they didn't want to "mislead" us. I think it's to save more t...

@Ladymercury:
Looks like you beat me to the punch! And a well-written review, at that. I'll be posting mine once I'm done with my school stuff (or if I can manage to find a break).

LOL @ your signature, though. Is there a clip of that somewhere?!

What's really sad is, I totally didn't care about the abuse of DV (harhar) throughout the series since I kept up with it week after week (and I also really only continued for Juri and Eita)... but seeing it all consolidated into over an hour just made me realize how unnecessary and stupid it usually...

That's pretty funny that I was right about Eri and Ogurin. I didn't think I would be, but... I guess they had to cut Eri some slack somehow. As much as I adore Takeru, I would've preferred that Ruka go find Michiru alone. I know she wouldn't have gone without him, but eh. Either way, a bit rushed a...

I agree. we can see how upset she was when her senpai kissed her. this is more than just physical violation but it can break her down completely. for any normal person to get raped is already a tragic thing but for ruka it drive her to give up on everything. See, that's why I don't think it's going...

did you notice the cup didnt break into pieces? I thought that has to be symbolic somehow.....as if Ruka will break a bit, but not totally crumble. but, really, your guess is as good as mine Don't forget the cup already broke once, but Takeru fixed it. I'm being an optimist and thinking that the cu...

Poor Ruka and Takeru. Good Lord. Can someone help me out with the opening scene? What exactly did Ruka s...

I don't really think it's Ruka anymore...
Michiru saying「そっちの空はどう?」(How's the sky over there?) coupled with Ruka saying she wants to go to America nearly made me knock her off my list completely. At this point, I think it's between Takeru and Sousuke now.

Spoilers for Ep3 Interesting foreshadowing or red herring? This scene broke my heart. At the end, when Ruka goes to answer the door to a beaten up Michiru.. the shirt Ruka is wearing has angel wings on the back. Takeru's voiceover from the present says: 「君は あのとき 心に決めたんだな。 これから先 何があっても 命を懸けても 美知留を守るっ...

It's not unusual to have the hots for Ruka -- so far she's the coolest character.
I love that she ran to protect Michiru from Sousuke, even though she was injured!

I'm actually a bit disappointed with the drama overall, even though I really dug the casting. I'm beginning to think there's a curse on live-action versions of H&C. We'll see if I follow the Taiwanese version after this... One of the best things to come out of the drama was the soundtrack, IMO! ...
