First Love

Great cast, genuine performances, usually I watch others types of series this is the first Japanese serie but I can say was totally worthy. The scenario was light and daily related, we can se the snow, sea, mountain and the ordinary traffic. And that plus the acting and the history makes you wanna keep watching.

**And now some not requested thoughts:

For me was a completely immersion in real human emotions and actions, we are not wise or inspiring in the one third of ours life, we make huge mistakes and unfortunately we always hurt the loved ones because they are the souls around us seeing ours learnings and growing moments. But that is no excuse to keep failing. Is never too late to apologize and try again, try our best for the people we care, like or love.

Binge watched Japanese drama 'First Love'

Inspired from songs by Hikaru Utada, It's a slow-burn romantic drama.

Simple story presented in swoon-worthy, heartwarming, heart-touching way.

Writer-director Yuri Kanchiku beautifully narrates the screenplay.

Each episode is like a connecting pieces of puzzle, which makes it immersing, intriguing and interesting.

Each small detail in storytelling is so important, Even small dialogues, activities and objects play important part.. Each action of a character is beautifully presented, why he/she took such decision, which gives depth to characters.

Series has perfect casting, specially lead couple, their older and younger versions.

Their acting is enthralling. Chemistry is top-notch.

It not only narrate dynamics of a couple in different life stages but also relation of mother-daughter, friends, mother-son n siblings.

Drama has beautiful OSTs, breathtaking visuals, specially in the last episode has Icelandic scenery.

I find myself shedding tears in each episode. Truly heartfelt for me.

I loved it.

It's a beautiful, heartbreaking, and an excellent series.

I rarely give 10s on a first view, but I have to say that I absolutely loved this series.

Everything is amazing - Story, Main Leads, Their Chemistry, Acting, Star Cast, Background Score, Music.

I completed this series in 1 days and I am suffering from Post Drama Syndrome now. I can't get over it. Fabulous love story.

It is so moving that I found myself shedding a couple of tears everytime it was on.

If you're looking to see what true, real love and dedication/effort is, then this is the show for you. Will never forget.

If you think it's a TV series about Japanese pure love! ? Then you may miss a good work.

The range he spanned happened to match my age.

It's like when I listened to Hikaru Utada's first single 'First Love' when I was a student From the Fukushima Earthquake in Japan to the current COVID-19 in 2022.

When I watch the TV series, it seems that I have gone through these years with the TV series.

It describes the bitterness and joy encountered in half a lifetime of life.

No matter how hard the day is, always face it with a smile.

And silently holding back tears behind his back.

It describes the strength of women and the greatness of mothers.

These processes are also everyone's first time.

A choice made out of love.

The performance of the story also hopes that everyone can be like the leading actor in the end.

Able to overcome their difficulties.

Boldly do something for yourself that may change the rest of your life.

I have to say this series is one of the best Netflix ever aired especially if you're into love and Asian drama. It's written beautifully and pictured in simplicity with artistically picture and warm tones. The series not that long but the story getting more interesting and interesting in every episode. Onion ninja almost got me in the 2 last episodes and I strongly suggest you to watch it! Though the series going back forth between timeline but it all beautifully connected. The background OST is also amazing. One of the best Asian hits in 2000's by Utada Hikaru. I really surprised that main character is French descendant. She is really pretty. You're always gonna be the one best J-Drama in my life ever!
