Oh wow... a blast from the past with this one! It's been ages upon ages since I watched (and adored) the anime of Lovely Complex and ever since I found out there's a movie adaptation of it it's been waiting for its turn on my "plan to watch" list. But... life happens as it does. I've fallen out of the loop of anime and j-dramas/k-dramas and I now return 2 years later, picking up where I left off. And so, I launch myself into 1 hour and 40 minutes of laughter and cringeworthy romance! Man oh man, where do I even start... Okay so, it's painfully obvious that this movie is going for that anime feel - which can both be very awkward and very funny, so I have mixed feelings about it. There's exaggeration to the maximum, full blast awkward hand movements, poses and facial expressions, so prepare your soul for this. But the storyline is very easy to follow, it's pace is quite quick but nothing too extreme. It catches the comical elements that gave the anime of Lovely Complex a special place in my heart quite well. As for the romance part, well... let's just say, I laughed more at the scenes in the movie that tugged my heartstrings in the anime. And this might be due to me changing personally, but still... I don't really know how to explain it, there was never really a pause for a truly serious moment to make me feel invested in the romance. The awkward anime-like acting took away from that experience and just made it all so very cringeworthy and laughable. Still, it made it even funnier (without it typically intending to), so it keeps tipping over to being a comedy movie with splashes of romance in my mind. ALSO I FRIGGIN' LOVE THAT NARRATOR DUDE, HE MAKES ME LAUGH THE MOST. Now the only reason I might re-watch this movie is probably because my boyfriend has never been exposed to Japanese drama or anime, and if he's going to be, then we better get into it to the extremely cutesy. Potentially scaring him off from the genre - or not, you never know - but it would be a damn good time. Nonetheless, if you're looking for a very lighthearted Japanese rom-com, this might be something for you. It's silly and cute, awkward here and there, but you might just find that adds to the cute factor more than I did. It's not very long, so if you do have the time, why not give it an honest shot!
