Sashiburi~!
Genki desuka?
watashi genki dayo....
Aniwae....so recent new drama i watch for 2012, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e [HanaKimi] or Ikemen Paradise...i know i'm slow but yea since i have nothing better to do, i feel its time to watch this drama....
okie we all know there's 2 version ne...One back in 2007 and the remake in 2011...
so what's the diff?
hmm firstly storyline is the same...abt a girl who goes to japan to ask this guy to go back and do high jump...
The diff is how the storyline goes..
~Hana Kimi 2007~
yappari na...hontouni ikemen ne~
all those guys in this season...like Oguri Shun, Ikuta Toma, Mizushima Hiro, Yamamoto Yusuke, Shirota Yuu etc.
The leading lady, maa most of us in JE fandom dun quite like her ne~ Horikita Maki-san....but i think she does act well despite being an anti somehow...
What make me glued to my laptop screen when i watch this version was the entertainment this season produced...maa i practically ROTFL so hard watching every episodes..especially when it comes to Nakatsu's [Toma's character] funny self talks... he has a very interesting vibe ne~ haha as expected of the kinda high ratings this version got...this version is one of the best dramas i ever watched...very very interesting
story wise, maa pretty straight cut ne~ Ashiya Mizuki comes to Japan to help Sano Izumi go back to High Jump cause she feels responsible for Sano's injury...Thus she disguise herself as a guy to be in Ohsaka Gakuen, where Sano is schooling...Ohsaka Gakuen is the most famous school filled with many ikemen guys...and the principals solely supports all their missions and vissions...even rewarding them with awesome prizes during competitions...along the way, Mizuki not only help to regain Sano's spirit in high jump, she also change everyone in Ohsaka Gakuen...and even caught Nakatsu's heart...but in the end despite Sano made the jump, her secret was eventually revealed when Hibari-san, from St Blossom Gakuen, sister school to Ohsaka found her passport...thus her stay at Ohsaka Gakuen was cut short...the ending, everyone knows the real Mizuki and they never approve at first but soon they did because Sano and Nakatsu explained the reason she lied...they had their last time together at a school's festival and afterwhich she went back to US with a goodbye session with the whole school and the Hibari Four, Nakatsu got his heartbroken but becomes best friend with Mizuki, Sano had a relationship with Mizuki but it was only shown very briefly....as in a kiss and she went back to US and a month later nothing much about their relationship at all....
but still to me despite his supporting role, Toma still stands out in this story with his funny reactions to everything...haha...Maki acting as a guy is well too ne..hmm Shun's character, maa he fits the role of Sano well too ne...the others like Hiro as Nanba-senpai, yappari na he really acts out like the big brother well ne...and the others to have received my compliments..everyone was definitely outstanding in this version....
~Hana Kimi 2011~
ikemen? maa maa na~
compared to version one, ikemen wise, version two never hit that mark somehow...
Nakamura Aoi VS Oguri Shun - Aoi is a good actor no doubt but meeting Shun's standards as Sano, well on par i guess..but Shun shows more as Sano..as in he is tall which fits Sano ability in high jump..Aoi-san, maa average height...but i still wonder why put him as Sano instead of Shohei since he's taller...
Miura Shohei VS Ikuta Toma - this Nakatsu i can approve on his ikemen-ness..but his acting as Nakatsu well its almost there..but Toma did it better somehow ne...hehe...
Maeda Atsuko VS Horikita Maki - I hate Maki but she do act well as Ashiya Mizuki....Maeda on the other hand, she still acts like a girl in this story somehow..at least Maki shows some guy while Maeda doesn't...
Kiriyama Renn VS Mizushima Hiro - both is ikemen..no doubt..but something about Hiro's protrayal of Nanba-senpai that Renn doesn't...i dunno but i felt its a miss
Sato Tomohito VS Shirota Yuu - naa i find him a miss too... maybe his hair? make him look not ikemen at all... na he act as Kagarazaku was way off then Shirota's...
well if i go on, i will definitely point everyone's miss as the character they portarying in this version compared to the first version..even i can't approve the guy acting as Umeda or Sakime...totally different...
Storyline ... Ashiya Mizuki comes to Japan to give support for Sano Izumi to go back to high jump...but instead of Ohsaka Gakuen being an all elite, ikemen school like the first version, in this version, the school only have 3 months left to survive...and most of the competitions and activities in the first version cannot be seen in this version..its different...totally...well unique i must say...but i can't stick to my laptop..like the first episode, half way thru i already got bored...and watching the rest of the episodes feels like i'm being forced to watch..
well ending, during the time she's being exposed, the school was already going to be shut down...everyone found outabout Mizuki's identity, they never approve but only approve when she left and after hearing her confessions which was recorded by Umeda the night before in the radio club...Sano chased her and brought her back to the school's closing ceremony where everyone shows their gratitude to her...school was saved from closing as their gratitude towards Mizuki touches the board chairman's heart...Mizuki went back to US happily as she got what she wanted, including Sano's heart and love confession to her, a year later Sano and Nakatsu's batch graduated and Sano went to US to find Mizuki where their relationship rekindled and was taken to the next step....so pretty much the ending was definite....
so pretty much this version was maa maa na~ only towards the end it gets better, the first few episodes was definitely a boredom to watch...
Conclusion.... Version One is still way way better than Version Two....but Version Two's ending was better than Version One~
