Welcome

Hi, glad you came here. I really don't intend for this to become something big, it's just a little thing i've always wanted to do. I thought it would be a nice little place for me to write the thoughts about the dramas i watch so i not only forget em, but it makes it easier to tell other people waht i think about them. If there's a drama i haven't written about that you think I should, e-mail me about it and let me know, i'm always open to suggestions. Welcome and i hope you enjoy your visit here.

Taiyou no Uta


http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Taiyo_no_Uta


A girl who comes out only after sunset, a guy who enjoys nothing more than to go to the beach at the break of dawn and surf. These two should not have met, but already fate has connected these two people. A girl inspired to become an artist in the time she has left, a boy who hid away his music because of the pain and memories of it. Fate brings these two together, people from opposite worlds, to change both of their lives forever.
Sawajiri Erika returns from her brilliance in 1 litre of tears to once again play a sick girl with an incurable disease (i mean seriously, can't she do more than that?). She is joined by Yamada Takayuki famous from another sad drama, Sekai no Chuushin de Ai wo Sakebu. It's a refreshing tale, and a nice relationship chart. I admist sawajiri erika did a brilliant part playing a girl with an incurable disease but seriously, i think she can do more than play sick girls. It was a great performance, and sawajiri erika surprised me with her singing, she did a pretty good job considering she hadn't really been known for singing, and she looked stunning (darn you takayuki for stealing a kiss from her xD).
In all tho, this was a good job done, the ending initially bothered me as it is quite saddening and cruel, but it is effective.

there was also a movie version of this with YUI in it <3, it's good too although it didn't have as much time as the drama to develop things, the songs are better IMO

8.5/10
