![Itazura na Kiss]()
7. Itazura na Kiss
Japanese Drama - 1996, 9 episodes
The first of the many many later adaptations in live action, and the fist adaptation of the anime. This is still my fav one, and tho it is a bit too short to develop the characters and the story in general, I think bc of the acting, story and stuff, the drama overall deserves a watch. Don't expect too much tho. It's a MELLOW drama.
