Weird is the very nice description you would get;
different would definitely be a good one;
metaphoric would make it to the top ten list;
but a thorned-rose best describes this blog.

Spoiler: A Million Stars Falling from the sky...

Oh for fuck's sake, can all movies/series/anime/manga sites be made to have a category called 'tragedy', so I don't have to waste my life watching something that would end with a Romeo and Juliet theme or one left in the world????
My friends say I get too involved in my movies and all that...the problem is my life is already a fantasy and I like to keep it that way. So anything that is 'happily-ever-after' oriented is welcomed in. I have made it a personal decision to stay away from anything that brings reality too close. That is why tragedies, which are based on the sad aspects of life, are a no go.
Why the rant?
I just watched a Japanese series called "A million stars falling from the sky". Imagine my almost heart attack when I found out, by accident, during a search for a part of episode 8, that it was a tragic ending that awaited me!?!?!
I mean from the way it was going originally, I figured it would be a "Death Note" deal you know? The bad guy gets caught in the end, bla, bla, bla...but seriously, what the fuck was up with that ending!?! By the end of episode 7, I had the entire story figured out and I was like "Fuck my life..." I have a problem see, when I start something, I have to finish it. If I don't finish it, I get uncomfortable, get a migraine, get itchy...almost like an allergic reaction. So yeah, I have to finish it. In summary, I watched the story knowing fully well what would happen at the end.
But it wasn't all bad though. Oh no...at least it was the best solution among all the many dandy choices tragedy gives. Yes, yes...they both died. If that girl, who decided to stop thinking as soon as she finally got the boy, had not shot herself after killing the reason I was watching that series to begin with, then I would not have forgiven her!
If it isn't clear, yes I do blame her for what happened...at least most of it. (Of course if that baka of a Kan-chan had told us from the beginning she was that man's kid, life would have been easier). But back to the girl.
You cannot coax a caged heart into trusting you and coming out, just to let it fly beside you solo! She said it herself, he had forgotten how to fly, so why, oh why would she expect him to be able to fly on his own just cause his heart was out of the cage???
I know this cause...
I mean all she had to do was ask ne? Talk to him like she used to... and what happened to all that bs about believing in him, protecting his heart, and etc....in the end, as soon as she heard from that busy body of an おばばあちゃん, Kotoko-chan that, of course all this info was hear-say from yours trully's imagination, that her brother - fake - had killed her lover - real brother-'s father, she flipped and decided the one she wanted to protect in the end was not the one she claimed originally!
And why the hell did she pull the trigger!?!? He was fucking shedding tears for crying out loud! Stop and think...when has Ryo EVER cried before!?!?! She had literary never seen this boy cry! Yet when she was before him, crying out accusations and making declarations about protecting her 'brother', and he began to cry, she who for 10 episodes had been the master at reading his true thoughts and getting what he really wanted to say, suddenly went dumb and did not understand what now became too clear it was almost stupid!!!
Oh but of course our little princess could not have done it all alone. Oh now. Ryo, that bastard who could not decide if he wanted to be good or bad, just had to become human, and the worst kind, at the end. Self-sacrifice for crying out loud! How could he decide that that was the best option!?!? I really don't know which of the idiot siblings pissed me off the most!
Really, as the saying goes, the truth shall set you free...
It's been a while since I have had such an intrusion and been this pissed! I have now succeeded in giving myself a migraine as well...
も いい です! おやすみ!

There are few, if any, such blunt and negative reviews on this drama. I'm glad though, that I'm not the only one who found this movie a bit...disappointing. The beginning episodes were kind of slow and by episode like 6 you could already tell the main jist of what was going to happen in the end x_x. I do think the actresses and actors deserve credit for such great acting though. Especially Yuko! Though if only Ken-chan had told everyone the damn truth earlier then none of this crazy brother-sister/romeo-and-juliet love would have happened -_-"

Ha ha yes you totally feel mi. I also find it amusing that every love story Kimitaku seems to star in has some tragic or twisted unhappy ending to it. I am yet to find something positive that is romantic and he stared in....of course Gift to mi doesnt count cause the romance was not the center of the story....

I was up with you till you were talking about yourself .... Then I really lost it :( Sorry

Well if it is always the merry go round and happily ever after, even in fantasy, it kind of gets monotonous to weave even the happily ever after story ...

So you need to appreciate the thought that was put in ... whether it was something beautiful or not ...

And as far as I believe ... fantasy only gets to tragedy sooner or later ... its the intensity which makes it awesome ... be it anime, manga or disney ...

One last thing ... not all tragedies leave you with a sick after taste ... To give you an example .. The solitude of prime numbers ... It's a novel ... and it gets sick and torturous ... but it shows you the beauty in oddness .. or rather primeness :P

Anyways lot to live ... even in fantasy ... let your mind afloat with whatever there is to take ...

Believe me ... there is a LOT more than what you know apart from good old happiness ... in fantasy as well as in living

Absolutely Lost said...

and just out of curiosity ... why am I on your blog list ?

Mi said...

lol ok wow your post is very long.
To start with, we actually don't know each other, so you can't know what I have experienced to make mi what to only indulge in fantasies >< so pls dont say "there is a LOT more than what you know apart from good old happiness ... in fantasy as well as in living" cause I don't need anyone to tell mi that, believe mi.

As for the existence of meaningful tragedies, I think everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Mi, I can't positivism in anything tragic that is on my screen. For you it is different.

Thank you for your comments though. And as for why you are on my blog list, I think I saw something on your Throw Out of Killer blog I liked and thats why I followed. But if it is a problem, I can stop :)

Cheers
Mi

I never said anything against what Mi believes in ... I just said there is a lot more which can be experienced by Mi ... in a rather long explanatory way

Nevermind ... Its alright if you want to follow ... But I barely blog on my previous blog i.e. the Kilt3r one ... you can find new posts on my other blog i.e. lost in a concrete jungle

Mi said...

i'm glad i read your spoiler cos i too am one of those who prefer happy endings. we have reality and tragedy in real life already so i like a little happy ever after too. i was disappointed to find out about the tragic ending as well and not sure if i am to continue as i'm just starting actually. but i might just for curiosity's sake cos of the cast.

Mi said...

Haha ya you're welcome then. I watched it simple cause of Kimura Takuya so we aren't too far apart ;)
