Nobuta Wo Produce (2005)

ML is an actor but not too popular anymore & broke so he rent a room in FL house.
FL is a nerdy geeky/otaku girl who like to imagine & day dreaming about romance with her favorite manga/comic book character. Remind me of Rainie Yang & Jiro Wang drama....& still 1 of my favorite drama....If you like this genre this is a must watch romance comedy drama....

Both film has a shy high school girl who is socially awkward, not fit in, being bullied. The classmate decided to help her, could romance growth? How would the friendship ended?

Both are dramas about bullying in high school. Nobuta wo Produce concentrates on comedy while LIFE goes much more deeper.

In this drama the girl also get's bullied and with some help of others who care about her she gets her life back on track.

I like that both movies started with a main lead that is quiet, isolated in school, the male leads found her intrigued. Discovered of her family issues. The female lead growth into a noticeable figure, Romance growth as well
