I don't know why but I can't like this drama so much or maybe I just don't feel this climate. The episodes were so long and due to my lack of interest of the plot I have fun thanks to actor's behavior. It doesn't matter if they play tragedy or comedy, I'm still not convinced to their acting.

However, a gay (Lee Min Ho!) is something new in kdrama for me, so these all aberrant misunderstandings makes me laugh the most.

To be fair, I counted on a small affair between Yeong Seon and Sang Jun. In my opinion they could be the great couple. Surely, this guy is better candidate than the true Yeong Seong's husband. Change the screenplay!

...and Sangojjae! A pretty house. I could live there.

Shinobi is an exceptional telling of this story of the koga and iga ninja tribes. The scenery was spectacular, the fights believable and the acting was awesome.

I saw Basilisk before so I was familiar with the plot already, but the film inspired me to go find out the actual story. I felt like the story was a little rushed but they had to get a lot in a little time.

I loved the set design and the scenery. The camera seems to do a lot of scenery pans and where I would usually complain I didn't mind at all.

Although the acting was good I didn't feel Yukie was as good as Joe. However, she performs better here than in Gokusen. All the supporting cast did really well, they had a way of making you really believe they were from that time. I love movies that just suck you in and make you want to see if maybe the end will change from what you know it to be. This is one of those movies.

Wow is all I can say to this incredible story. I watched it all in one day, and it's honestly the saddest drama I've watched to date. I've never cried this hard for any movie or drama until I watched this. The story is powerful and moving, enough that it's so hard to not cry or feel anything. But it's inspiring, the main girl, Aya, how she stays strong for as long as she can, never giving in.



The acting is superb, especially the main characters. They did a terrific job, and it makes me wonder if they had to use eye drops or if their tears were for real.



The music went along with the story, and the main song "Only Human" by K I liked a lot after watching a few episodes. It really fits.



My rewatch value is low, because, like some other reveiwers have stated, this show is very emotional and heartbreaking.



Overall, I think this show is a must watch. Why? It's inspired by a true story, and it's very moving and inspirational, making you wonder about your own place in life. You might not cry 1 Litre of Tears while watching this drama, I didn't, but I still cried a lot, especially in the later episodes. I would say you'd have to be a stone-cold person to not even feel a thing after watching this show.

I was excited to watch this because I was impressed with YEH\''\''s acting in Take Care of the Young Lady. It was a different role. However I was quickly underwhelemed by Lie To Me.

The story starts off really funny like most romantic comedies but soon went off to an angsty direction. Some episodes were more entertaining than others but overall the plot was shall i say boring? I feel liked nothing happened and as the episodes went on it became harder for me to finish each episode. The ending was cute as least.

The entire cast was really great. If it wasn\''\''t for them I definitely would have stopped watching. The supporting cast really was wonderful.

The OST is another plus. Went on my ipod right away.

I don\''\''t have any plans to rewatch this because the story is tooo forgettable.

Overall the cast and OST are what make this drama great.

In short: Don't waste your time unless you are a fan of AKB48 and all of their many incarnations. If you liked the first one or thought it was fun, the first 3 episodes will be a good place to stop. Let me tell you why:

I really liked the 1st season, so to me this is an epic case of the 2nd season not being as good. To me the story didn't really focus. the 1st season focused on Maeda and the story was built upon her, but for the second season seemed to focus on some weird story between Nezumi, Center and Shibuya.

I really enjoyed the hardcore yankee attitude in the 1st season. I also really like the inter school competition. This season all the characters were played to seem weak, in fighting and in acting. I did like that they brought back the original Rappapa gang, but they had Minami (yuko's character) appear way too many times. They also seemed to have wayyyyy to much girl love like "are they about to kiss?!" ran through my head a few times.

I didn't like the excessive violence in this season, I know Yankees are beating people to a pulp but they aren't killing anyone. However on a conflicting note, the gang fights are better in this season. The ending made no sense at all, I understand what the writers were trying to do with it, but the "from bad to good" concept only really works when there is some major event that evokes change. For some of the characters there was no catalyst. In short: Don't waste your time unless you are a fan of AKB48 and all of their many incarnations.

Disclaimer: I am not a fan of sad tragic stories but I love Matsujun.

This was more of a peek into someone's life living with this illness. Matsujun was cute in this and so was the little girl. I literally cried because that little girl acted so well and it was so sad to me. I didn't like how many dramatic pauses this special seemed to take and how cut- up the drama seemed with the flash backs and such, but overall it was good. You really see a struggle of a family trying to keep it together. There is no glamour, no comedy, just the tragic realities of what some people live through. I may be biased saying I didnt like it becasue it kept getting even more depressing as it trodded on, but it was played well.
