A remedy for depression
When i first heard about the project announcement it sounded so silly and absurd, and to be honest it is kinda hard to take a drama seriously with a cartoon drawing of cicada which turns into a human just because he wanted to make a sad girl happy. Cicadas are insects not fairies or unicorns lol with such magical power, however once you get past the sheer absurdity and lack of explanation for the supernatural phenomenon. This drama is so damn well made.First of all no one could have justified this role other than Ryosuke yamada, with his childlike vibe, youthful appearence and bright warm eyes and a smile which looks so angelic, i could totally relate when the first response of the landlady sister duo on seeing him was are you a gift from god? When he seemingly y just drops from the sky out of nowhere he is the only one who could have done it.
Honestly this drama is so full of niceness it cured my depression, it is less about romance and more about human beings, their personal tragedies, insecurities and how they keep on living with their loss. Everyone has them, it was some lovely writing and dialogues.
So to sum it up the concept of the drama is silly, but to not take it as a serious drama is doing it a great injustice, the rating doesn't do the drama justice. Please don't dismiss it too easily.

Surprisingly good!
I have a fondness for male leads who aren’t human, so how could I resist a drama about a cute boy who’s actually a cicada?! I thought it would just be total goofiness, but despite the comical premise and plenty of silly scenes, there were many unexpectedly sensitive moments about loss, facing dying, embracing the little joys in life, and the impact we leave on those around us. Yet despite touching on subjects surrounding death, it was never dark or depressing. The ML was utterly adorable, the supporting characters were great, and I thoroughly enjoyed this gentle, wholesome, quirky story.Cet avis était-il utile?

Carino e dolce, una piccola fiaba. Invece di La cicala e la formica, la cicala e la ragazza
Lo spunto di questo drama è parecchio strano ammettiamolo. Se devo pensare ad un animale romantico non penso certo ad un insetto, infatti di drama dove sono gatti a trasformarsi in umani ce ne sono parecchi. Ma qui invece coraggiosamente si è scelto un insetto (rendendolo carino con la tecnica cartoonistica nella forma di insetto) ed è stata una scelta giusta. Proprio perchè non è affatto casuale, è proprio pensata per insegnare la filosofia di cogliere l’attimo agli uomini e funziona. Poi il tutto è molto carino, fiabesco, romantico e puccioso, è veramente un drama carino e piacevole. Con protagonista probabilmente il mio attore giapponese preferito Yamada Ryosuke. Una piccola fiaba proprio come La cicala e la formica, qui invece abbiamo La cicala e la ragazza, ed è la cicala che insegna agli umani qualcosa.Cet avis était-il utile?
