*surprised*

Well that was not the ending I was expecting.  No, not at all. I like it.  A lot.  But I'm really surprised that this the ending they gave after all.  I won't go into it further, I guess.

So Strawberry on the Shortcake was a little different in a kinda strange sort of way.  It's really hard to describe.  I guess that's because I haven't watched anything else with this particular plot pattern before.  That's a nice change, since a lot of J-dramas are pleasantly predictable.  But the strangeness exerted itself in a very true-to-life kind of way.

I also almost liked Fukada Kyoko (Minami-kun's koibito).  Almost.  I think it was the crazy that made her more endearing.  Isn't amazing that I can forgive crazy, but not stupid?  That probably means that there's something wrong with me....

I guess I don't have a lot to say about this one.  It was really good.  Quality good (IMO), not flaily good.  My adoration for Kubozuka Yosuke has expanded greatly. I loved Saeki!  Also, I <3 the closing credits and how they aptly tie into the drama.  BORN TO LOVE!

And lastly, I think the only other thing that has had this much ABBA in my life was the one time I watched Mama Mia.  Once was enough.

Keeper: even if I hadn't, I would...
Tissues: just one, actually, for the satisfaction of the ending
Resolution: 10!!! that postcard!!
Overall: A

And I fail... I didn't even plug in the sewing machine tonight and now I'm going to bed... failure :(  What will mother say?
