'Tatta Hitotsu no Koi' Episode 9 review

[winterspel]

I've been wondering what on earth I could possibly say about this episode without crying. So to begin, I just need to rant a wee bit. Especially after seeing this episode, but really throughout the entire run thus far of THnK, I find the ratings to be OBSCENE. It really breaks my heart that such a beautifully and sensitively acted drama has been so

Um, I think I felt the knife twisting over and over in my stomach when I read this, just because that was how the episode felt for me. I loved everything you said, 'twas wonderful as always. :D

The one thing that I find quite interesting with this drama is how much I identify with it. I'm just slightly older than Hiroto and the gang, so I feel all their problems, worries and fears quite acutely and watching them take the time jump, and move forward with their lives was just like whoa. I don't even know how to express myself, but it was just like whoa. *laughs* To essentially watch them go from their glory years of youth into adulthood is just something. And Kitagawa gets is realistically RIGHT. Like you said, you can't begrudge Nao for moving on because that's the way she is - that is the way life flows. *sighs*

I'm seriously psyched for the last episode. I actually have no idea where this drama is going right now and that excites me, because I thought it would be much more predictable. (Though I kind of want someone to die, especially since Hiroto's been throwing around his, "I'd die for Nao/Ren if is saved them!" bit forever. *grin*)

warning: this is intensely personal, sorry

Thank you very much, dear. It was really not easy to write this and relive the pain all over again...

I'm pretty psyched, too, and I agree with you - I DO almost want someone to die, and as I said above, I almost wish it would be Hiroto because I don't want him to suffer the loss of Nao or Ren or anyone else he loves. I'd rather they mourn him than the other way around.

Heh, I emailed you the personal part, but I forgot to change my subject heading. D'oh!

*giggle* I got it! At first, I was really confused when I saw the title of that first comment and then it made sense. *grin*

*hugs* Wouldn't it just be so much easier if we could control reality at the end of the day? :D "I want to live my life this way, exactly. And everything else must bend to mywill." *giggle* If only Nao and the rest of us were real princesses, then it might work. *wink*
