Sakura Jul 28 2019 11:34 am This was alright particularly Junpei did a good job, but I felt the lead girl was begining to annoy me very early on as though she was one of the popular girls that no one likes and it was hard to root for her in the end because it wasn't believable that she likeable or ladylike let alone loveable ... Sorry she has a quality that makes her seem like a third lead, albeit popular with boys, but not the actual leading lady.

Zane Araki Dec 25 2016 7:22 pm Perhaps they should've casted Haru Kuroki for Haruna Nagashima. Girl can pull out likeable over the top acting. Haruna is an awesome character. It's such as a shame if her character doesn't translate well on screen.

Rachel Mae Operio Oct 18 2016 9:28 pm it might be a weird movie for others but for me it's the best.

Maya Aug 11 2016 8:21 pm I watched this movie this morning and Asaoka's character's hair was so strange looking to me it was actually funny. But I found his character strangely enjoyable. I came here and turns out it was Yuki Furukawa. I did not recognize him in the least lol

ayame May 19 2016 8:50 am Can't even finished this one, Female MC can't act :v

Dr Mar 16 2016 10:48 am The lead female role ' s acting is so depressing!! Haruna in the manga is sure lovely and pure.. I hope there another remake and make it a good live action.. The plot, the role, and setting.. like class room so fake... and please don't make Haruna copy Nodame... it's my impression when I watched haruna in the movie... Haruna's character is so different with Nodame.. I really appreciate the team, the cast, and all crew..

gis8 Sep 02 2015 8:24 pm The lead girl is seriously a let down.. I don't really get her acting.. I really love the Haruna in the manga though..

Aaliyah Feb 01 2015 7:14 am I LOVE the manga!! XD I was so happy to hear that there was a movie and ARGH MA GOSH!! The story is so perfect and <3 ugh it's to beautiful for words.. *u*

grace May 26 2014 6:59 am I'm gonna watch this b cause of Yuki Furukawa..

julia kaklyya Apr 01 2014 6:18 pm love you JUNPEI Mizobata

high school debut fan Mar 10 2014 6:59 am who know the song that tsukaji muga sing when Haruna is depressed after she fired Yoh? I love that song though. It nice. I was looking for it but couldn't found it anywhere.

schoolgirl Feb 24 2014 4:34 am I love japan because the movie....love JUNPEI Mizobata and Ito ono forever...Arigato

hannah Jan 27 2014 10:37 am i can't believe the male lead in this movie is the same person as the one who play as 'Shuji Hatano' in Buzzer Beat!! in this movie he look so cool and cold while in that drama he look so clumsy and kinda silly.. totally two different character! how cool is that! and he also not a very bad looking, he got the looks..

intan maofuri Jan 14 2014 9:43 am i love this movie, love...................................

Kaitou May 05 2013 3:27 am Does anyone knows where they filmed that movie? in tokyo or another big city?

junpei mizobata Aug 16 2012 8:00 am wow this movie is amazing

shin Aug 09 2012 10:45 pm does anyone know if this movie got a subtitle in english .. where i can download it :D cuz i cant understand cuz im a filipino :D

Miho Aug 04 2012 6:26 am Does anyone know the name of the song that the /fat funny cameo dude/ was singing after Haruna fired Yoh. The one where she was being all sad and down and she kicks the mic down and junk. I like the song so much~ /////

lorie Jul 25 2012 7:16 am the song is..............FALLIN' LOVE by: SEVEN OOPS

Jenny Jun 16 2012 2:37 am Pls!! does anyone know the beautiful background music that comes all the time? like when Yoh finally decided to help her! pls! i really like that and i guess everyone does! xD so pls? :D thank you everyone!

2NE1starss Jun 10 2012 9:35 am As someone who didn't read the manga, I really enjoyed the movie! It was light-hearted, fun and cute. if you're looking for a really lightweight kind of love story then I will definitely recommend this. Although just make sure that you haven't read the manga bc you'll just rage just like these people below me. But we all know they can't really satisfy us that much if it's just a movie. From my perceptive, all the actors did a great job *claps*.

[SPOILER] [SPOILER] I'mjusthappythattheyactuallykissedattheend <3333 [SPOILER] [SPOILER]

Audrey Jun 06 2012 9:15 am I loved reading the manga, but the movie seems rushed, they tried to put most of the manga into the movie, and it was all out of order. They did this in the Avatar the last airbender movie too, if you never read the manga/comic or see an anime, it may not matter, unfortunately when you have it's a little disappointing or rushed. I would love to see them do a drama or anime where they could play it out like it was in the manga, plus they need different actors, like I said, it may have been cause it felt rushed, and the actors may have not had time to integrate themselves into the part better, but they didn't seem believable like the manga. That is the reason I love anime, they can make the characters look/act the same as they do in the manga...please make an anime of this.

Kenzou May 03 2012 9:11 am @Roselilyfire Fallin' Love by 7!! (7 oops!!) is the title of the last song.

Roselilyfire Mar 21 2012 4:08 pm Does any1 know the name of the very last song in the movie? i really like it, but being american, i can't find out the name of the song or the band! plz tell!

ondowuzz Mar 16 2012 2:35 am why...?

why mostly comments i read in youtube were very sarcastically negative, but here i find the opposites?

Matsumoto Ran Mar 07 2012 9:50 am Sadly, the film turned out to be much less than what I have expected. It hurts watching Ito Ono play the part. I honestly think that they could've cast a better actress for the role. The story line was same-old-same-old predictable and did not leave much of an impact. And as much as we want the audience to think that it's a fun movie, I think throwing in a small production number with all the singing and dancing, was kinda pushing it. I was disappointed. The manga was one of the best I've read after all.

ZuriAi Feb 25 2012 4:50 am The feeling of... Arggg!

I had high expectation in this movie and it didn't let me down!

This movie is awesome!

The characters were adorable!

The actress playing Haruna was so CUUUUUUUUTE! And with Yoh? I fell deeper in love on his character! :"""""""""""">

And ohh! Does anyone of you find Junpei's voice very captivating, too?

This is definitely a good watch. Love and Laugh together! ^^

maaakino Jan 23 2012 4:21 pm The manga is one of my all time faves! ♥ :D It's so adorable and awesome.

The movie wasn't disappointing either. It's really fun and cute ~

hikari Jan 18 2012 3:25 am wow.. one of the best movie i've seen.... xoxo

Kuroineko Dec 22 2011 4:26 am LOVE LOVE! LOVE YOH!!!!

Btw does anyone know the manga Haruna's reading 22mins into the movie?

cho_chella Dec 19 2011 4:13 am ,,Must watch this movie, so funny n really good for teenagers.. ,,I like the opening song but I don't know what is the title, can u tell me ??

Kiyou Dec 18 2011 2:19 pm It's okay. The manga is of course better than the movie. The cast were good except for three: Asami, Fuma, and Asaoka. Asami: wasn't as bi polar like she was suppose to be. Asaoka: lol his hair just got me Fuma: Hair was weird and his personality was off. Yoh was amazing ! So was Haruna :D!!!! The events in the movie was confusing and it was done way to fast I think they should of spent more time on making the movie >____<

But thats just my opinion :P It was really funny I plan on watching it with a friend later

imaai Nov 29 2011 2:38 am as someone who has read the original manga i still thought that it was a cute movie! the casts are good as well! and the adaptation from the manga is quite nice as well <3 pretty funny too haha xD it was slightly different with the manga but oh well--overall it was a good watch! do watch it if you're stuffed & bored! it's light and relives your stress! lol (:
