    I blame it on the subtitles - maybe they were too shallow and clichéd, because that was the overall impression I got of this film. It also was probably the zillionth coming out/coming of age film I have seen, and nothing new here, except good acting and cute girls. I loved the m...( read more)other's ex and the actor playing the father, very, very good. Otherwise I was just plain bored, too tame, too unoriginal.

    The only reason I saw this movie was because Yoshii Rei (Orihime in Burmyu.) It was pretty good, even if you're not gay or bisexual its a good story.

    Not a great movie, but it is sweet. The actresses are very cute, but sometimes their love scenes seem awkward. Great soundtrack by noodles.

    Assiti motivado pelo mangá one-shot, e de fato foi bem fiel ao mesmo.
    Basicamente sobre o romance de duas jovens moças e seus desdobramentos e repercussão nas famílias.

    the actresses were surprisingly good but if you haven't read the manga, you might find the ending a little rushed and abrupt. also, 4 stars for a happy ending. LOL

    Ichiko and Eri are two beautiful Japanese Uni students who are in a lesbian relationship. Ichiko comes out to her father who tells her he is also gay and her mother was a lesbian. Her best friend is gay too, though he has a female who is after him. Their liaison is very intense, but Eri suggests a temporary separation so she can concentrate on her law studies. The break from their affair is difficult for Ichiko to deal with. Is tragedy at hand?
