BaT.TereDCakeS: [ Love*com ]

I just found out that they mae a live movie of Love*com!
I'm really late aren't I?

Haha I discovered it on accident while searching on the library.
I'm such a library freak that I even remember my library card barcode.
*gasp* What in the world?

Yeah well I love manga too much to not know my library card number by hard. haha

So first off...like always...READ THE MANGA BEFORE YOU WATCH THE MOVIE.

Like any other manga or book to movie situation, the movie always leaves out important details that really add to the story.

The infamous main manga couple

And here's the movie cover

Description of manga

"From Viz:
Risa Koizumi is the tallest girl in class, and the last thing she wants is the humiliation of standing next to Atsushi Otani, the shortest guy. Fate and the whole school have other ideas, and the two find themselves cast as the unwilling stars of a bizarre romantic comedy duo.

Lovely Complex Plus is actually volume 17 with the final chapter called Love Com Final. The first two chapters are about before Koizumi Risa and Otani Atsushi met each other. The third chapter is about their first encounter and a little bit of what happens to them after the ending of Lovely Complex.

*Contains a side story called Hoshi ni Natte mo Aishiteru (Even When I Become A Star, I'll Still Love You) in vol 12:
Reina wakes up surprisingly in her boyfriend's room. But it seems that she passed away three days ago...

In 2004 Lovely Complex received the 49th Shogakukan Manga Award for shōjo."

Review of movie:
So after watching this movie for the first like 2 minutes, I realized that it's going to be a very exaggerated movie to depict the manga with crazy likeness.

I was right, it's a pretty exaggerated movie and it tried to depict the manga like crazy. Even down to the furniture and tv. I didn't think it was that great because at times it got boring.
It was made to be very funny but wasn't so funny. I didn't laugh out loud even once. Maybe just a little "heh" and smiles here and there but nothing to hilarious happened.

I thought the characters were depicted great. The actors actually looked like the characters from the manga so that was awesome.

I don't remember her playing a video dating game in the manga? Nor about Maity, the homeroom teacher.

And I don't remember about the teacher being so...flamboyant at all. I didn't even really notice the teacher so much in the manga because he was only in a few squares of some volume unless I'm missing something from the last few volumes?

It left out a lot of things from the manga, but then again, it is a movie.

And it carried too long at some parts.

It's so crazy how young the main character looks and how she really looks like the manga character. She was born in 1982.
