Meh
It started out cute, probably a 7-star drama, but after episode 6 it deteriorated quickly.I feel like the story wasn't quite sure what it was doing, and the writers also weren't sure what to do with Mamiya-kun. He's sweet, then he's demanding, then he's sweet again, and everyone's saying how he puts everyone else first, but that was never the impression of him that I got. His selfishness was very apparent in his behavior towards the heroine, and in the end, it really ended up turning me off him. I rolled my eyes at how the characters were trying to paint him as this self-sacrificing person, when clearly his own goals and his independence and his desires were primary in his mind. Painting him in any other way when I'm not blind and can see his true character quite clearly was ridiculous. I'm not saying he shouldn't have put his own life first, but it's stupid to pretend that's not what he was doing.
Of course, my finishing this drama after watching the pure genius that is Issei Takahashi in "Bokura wa Kiseki de Dekite Iru" probably didn't help my overall opinion.
For me, "Love Kome no Okite" will fade into the background and be utterly forgotten. I've seen so many better Jdramas with a longer-lasting theme. Being prettily filmed does not a quality drama make.

Short and sweet
I started this for main guy and I watched it while airing so I had some gaps in between watching cause I was waiting for subs. It started off really good the pursuing stage was so good and while it could be kinda cliche it was really good. The second half of the drama seemed to melo out, however, I don’t think this is a drama made to be outstanding but rather a simple short drama u can watch and enjoy while ur bored. The ost was pretty good I liked it. Overall this was short, sweet and funny and perfect to watch when u got some down time!Was this review helpful to you?
Cute And Simple
Loved it. A cute and simple story and the reason to fight for your happiness. The lead female character is a very confuse adult about reality and what she reads in comics. She believe that she is a perfect women and should show her coworkers how perfect she is. Even dough in reality she knows very little about the world. Her decision making is from what she reads in her love comics. The lead male character is an unhappy young men who family has left him devastated. He falls for her and does everything to get attention she does not understand love. Very simple with no third person undermining the relationship. Just bringing them into reality. the actors performance is great. Love the story.Was this review helpful to you?
