Renai Shousetsu (2004)

The result is a fine piece of work that, though small, leaves an unforgettable aftertaste

A love story based on a short novel of the same title by Kinjo Kazunori, known for his works such as GO, and directed by Mori Junichi, who made his directorial debut with Laundry. Originally produced as part of WOWOW's original TV drama series "drama W," it was exceptionally well received after its airing and was released in theaters. The sensitive and pure storytelling, the many effective locations, and the fine performances by beautiful men and women, especially Konishi Manami's convincing performance. The result is a fine film with a fantastical sentiment that leaves an unforgettable aftertaste despite its small size. （The result is a fine piece of work that, though small, leaves an unforgettable aftertaste.)

If you don't meet, it's the same as if you're dead

Mizuki's words, "If you don't meet, it's the same as if you're dead," are input to your head, and although it's not the original meaning, "There are many people who haven't met for a long time, but when I remember, I feel lonely." From my thoughts, I came to think that "I just don't see the dead people," and I feel less sad when someone close to me dies.
I'm not very good with romance movies, but I became a fan of Tamaki Kun and changed my mind when I saw his old works.
His unique transparency makes even the kissing scene beautiful, and the air of the whole movie is mysteriously sparkling.
Also, it was good that Kamiki-kun, who was a child, had a similar atmosphere. The contrasting brightness of Mr. Konishi was also very good.
