Review

“The Moment ” I Need You is a mini-series that shows the fluffy love between a vet and a bartender. It shows the growth of the vet personality by giving up his passion for an ex-girlfriend and giving it to someone else. Weirdly, the vet was trying to get away to have a breather, and his ex shows up. This show is concise and fluffy; ending is up to the audience. The acting was good. I love how the music played throughout the show, and sound effects were entertaining. Would I watch it again? I really can’t say, it was short and felt like something you should watch over and over again.

Movie Summary

Ootani and Tachibana have been inseparable since high school. Now that they’re in college, they live together, they’re happy and everything seems prefect. But their little world is disrupted when they meet an old high school friend, Yuki, who seems to have a crush on Tachibana, making Ootani feel jealous and insecure. Will Tachibana really choose him over a pretty girl? (Source)

Genre

Review

Ai No Kotodama is about Ootani and Tachibana, who have been boyfriends since high school. They happen to reunite with Yuki, a girl who is a friend of their high school years. I think Yuki was just someone who had a crush on Tachibana and just kind of a groupie of Ootani and Tachibana relationship because they are always together. Yuki kind of puts a wedge in Ootani and Tachibana’s relationship due to Ootani knowing that Yuki has a crush on Tachibana, his boyfriend, causing Ootani and Tachibana to fight, which like always has a lack of communication and hearing the other out. This film was not the best I have seen; it was alright. But I did like the scene where Tachibana and his friend are talking about what they love about their boyfriends; they say the thing people would think to be negative things that they love. It was different to see that. I am giving this movie a better rating only because I had to pause multiple times due to being interrupted, and I’m fighting some illness. Also, I did enjoy the character growth for Yuki to realize she wasn’t in love with Tachibana, but they want to have a romantic relationship like Ootani and Tachibana’s relationship. Would you watch it again? No, not really. The film felt rush for the plotline.

Genre

Review

Before I Love You: Mek x Mork is a short story about two friends trying to set up their friend Mork. It is sweet that they were thinking about their friend. But there are a few flaws like they didn’t even know if Mek liked guys or was trying to date anyone. The acting is cheesy. The music was the same soundtrack for the rest of Before I Love You series. I think this needs more time to developed by like 5 minutes. Would you watch it again? No, it just was not something I would watch it again.

Review

Before I Love You: Rain x Storm is the beginning story for how Rain and Storm became a couple. The story is a little over 10 minutes long. Rain does do somethings we would call crazy stalker things like drinking from the same bottle. But Rain also does sweet stuff like buy Storm food. It was a good clip to watch. The music had a great choice, and the actors did an excellent job. Would you watch it again? Yeah, it was short and adorable.

Review

Before I Love You: Phu x Tawan is about how Tawan and Phu became a couple. This video is part of a series, film-like episodes are seven minutes long. This episode is all puppy love, and the first crush, which is just adorable and fluff. I would recommend it. Would you watch it again? Yeah, it short and sweet, and the company itself posted it on YouTube, which is very helpful so that other countries can see it.

Review

Cherries in Early Summer is a short web series made from short video clips and mostly pictures. The format reminds me of doujinshi with voice actors. Since the series is so short, they’re a lot of plot holes that make the audience guess on. The flow was good at moments but awkward moments where it’s rushed. However, it was enjoyable for me. I will warn the video quality is poor, and it talks about suicide. The last episode the sound comes in and out. The ending is open for the audience. Not everything explained in the series which causes you to be put off from it. I did enjoy the music and the acting. Its something I wouldn’t expect anyone to go oh this is my favorite. It’s something that you would say like oh yes I have seen it. It is okay.

Nevertheless, I can say it something you could watch to pass the time or take a break from a long series kind of like a refresher. Would you watch it again? Maybe but most likely not. Its something I would recommend to see once.

Mrs Yen was sleeping and she dreamt about Hung – her elder adopted son, who died many years ago. Why is Hung’s spirit returning? Is it to seek revenge for his death? – Mrs. Yen’s dream is a consequence of the relationship between her biological son and her adopted son. When they announced their love to the family, Mrs. Yen was devastated. She could not accept it and her efforts to keep them apart may have driven Hung to his death.

Review

Warning this is a tearjerker. Rainbow Without Colours starts weird, but you should continue watching it because of it’s worth it. I want to thank the actors and actresses in Rainbow Without Colours for a fantastic job. I felt the emotions of the characters. Rainbow Without Colours is a movie that shows that you sometimes meet the middle ground for the ones you love. The father finds out, at first, I think he didn’t approve. However, he realizes that the older brother would them protest the young brother from anything. I think he slowly started to accept it. The sister realizes that they were in love, and separating them would cause them pain. Rainbow Without Colours is a massive example of how falling in love and losing our love can make someone go crazy. It also has the considerable theme of accepting your kids or family or friends for who they are and not trying to make a square fit in a triangle hole. It shows the problem with society. I mean, you don’t have to like two same-sex marriage. However, is your hate worth losing a person in your life? Would you watch this again? Yes, it made me think about what you should cherish in your life and accept people for who they are.

Review

The Right Man – Because I Love You is a short film about the mother and son bond changing as the son grows up. The Right Man – Because I Love You show how coming out and hiding a massive secret from your family affects your relationships. Warning rapey scene and underage sex at the beginning. However, the theme is to show how parents need to trust their kids to be independent to establish adulthood. I would recommend watching this because it has sweet moments in it. Would I watch it again? Yeah, it short and charming to the point. It is about acceptance and young love.

Review

Bake Me Love is a short story that just gave me mixed feelings. I don’t know how I feel about it. The story didn’t catch my attention; however, I didn’t push it away. It had a lot of different plot lines going on that were not explain. I feel the one about the other baker story wasn’t beneficial for the story. The only thing we get is that she was jealous of Mielle. However, how long has she hated Mielle? Why did Kim and his ex break up? Other characters stories left for us to guess what happened? I did love the friendship between Rose and Mielle. I do not particularly appreciate that Rose was stereotype gay. I hate another relationship after all the drama happened and may me feel a bit sorry for one of the characters. However, it showed growth for him. Would you watch this again? No, I feel like for me it was something that I would watch if I had utterly nothing else to watch.
