I need something to spin to! I am failing to find it!
AUGH GUYS
why did no one tell me that Honey&Clover was so...awesome?
Okay. I've seen it high on lists of manga and J-dramas, but but but
I suppose, it wouldn't have occurred to anyone to frame it as "Yankee-kun as the Howl-like sculpting genius has megane bestie like a Kyoya suffering unrequited love and third is the bumbling hero played by the adorable Nakatsu of Hana Kimi, with interesting and non-cute-idiot girls"
or to say that the first episode was enough evocative of life being bittersweet and the turning points of our self-understanding in youth that I would be happy if the rest was standard J-Drama fare, because the first part was unexpectedly beautiful and evocative
of course, I tend to be a sucker for anything about creative people living out the daily life of balancing art and need for reality, too.
Anyway.
I was trying to find something to watch that I didn't have to pay attention to--both City Hunter and Protect the Boss remain unfinished because I need to Sit DOWN and Watch them both, but this wasn't exactly the right candidate.
I'm happy I started it anyway, boggit.

Yeah, from what I can tell right now the girl's genius seems to be one mainly of SCALE. but. yanno. J-Drama. It does not do to scrutinize...
