Itazurana Kiss Part 3: Propose hen

Mischievous kiss the third movie is about the proposal. And that proposal comes up way too late in the movie. Overall, the movie is cute. The story is one of the most famous stories with many many many remakes and dramas based on it. So, how can they missed it? Maybe the execution wasn't that great. The movie had a fast pace, fortunately, but it didn't have a flow. Events just happen and with no explaination, the characters acted out of character. Maybe it was the too manga like vybe that the movie wanted to give off. Whatever it was, the movie failed to provide.

It was like watching the anime version, but with a lot less expression, and the time was sped up.

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE Itazura na Kiss. It's my all time favourite story about unrequited love. I've read the manga, watched the 2008 anime TV series, 1996 Itazura na Kiss TV dramas, Itazura na Kiss: Love in Tokyo, and 3 parts of Itazura na Kiss the movie.

In my opinion, this third movie has a much faster pace, so character development is very difficult to bring up. The acting ability of the actors is also very ordinary, almost below average. Shooting and editing is also minimal effort. Very boring seeing every scene.

In the end, I can't understand whether they want to copy the anime to real life, or want to be in a standard love comedy style drama. Where they failed at both.

On the plus side, I like the visuals of the actors who resemble the characters in the anime. Especially Irie Naoki and his father. Actor with the best acting for me is Takanori Jinnai as Shigeo Aihara.
