sintaks-error!: January 2013

These couple months I've watched a japanese drama (again). And I was hooked instantly for the main cast who are extremely famous there, Keiko Kitagawa and ... GACKT! Yes GACKT! I will say 2012 was such a busy year for GACKT since his projects -Yellow Fried Chickenz and Camui Gakuen- had bloody schedules this year. Plus, it remarked as a comeback for Keiko Kitagawa-san starring a drama again (I think). Special!

THE CHARACTERS?

THE PLOT?

The story focused on a transferred student named Kotou Yuiko who frequently had nightmare and the worse was that nightmare became reality sooner or later. She later asked Ayami, her homeroom teacher, to help her by interpreting every single nightmare she had and avoid it became reality. Ayami who lost her past memories, finally realized that she had the same ability, a secret which had been buried by Yuiko's grandfather. In the other hand, an ambitious professor Shiki Takashi tried to get closer to Ayami as her lover to prove the existence of prophetic dreams.

First episode, the story was quite epic. The main idea -dream (or should I say nightmare)- was interesting too. I think Kitagawa-san danced in Cinderella-like clothes with prince-suited Gackt was also a bonus lol. Child actress Manatsu Kimura who starred the main role as Yuiko also showed us a stunning act. This first episode was addictive enough. You've been warned!

The next 4 episodes were like ummm... it's okay to watch. But the story was kinda boring actually since it was only a repetition from the previous episodes. There were no 'new dream interpreted in a new way'. There were no scenes which made me scream like "Kyaaaa~ GACKT and Keiko!" Okay, I know it's not pure a romance drama lol ~~damn fangirling~~.

They're cute together :3

What next? I didn't get the computer graphics. The graphics annoyed me A LOT. It should be more realistic. Anyhow, there were poor made, lack of impression.

But, started at episode 7, suddenly the plot changed. The story was more intense, more serious, darker, and more dynamic. It really played our emotions. The main background why Yuiko asked help to Ayami and why Ayami changed into a psychopath woman gradually appeared. Yet, the main reason of Shiki Takashi approching Ayami was still unraveled until episode 10. And I couldn't judge whether Shiki Takashi was a real villain or just a mad ambitious scientist. ~~I hope the second one~~ *cough*.

Overall, the entire show is soooooo great. Great casts, great story, and multiple twists. What a fun mix : suspense, sci-fi, comedy, school life, and romance. That's what I look for a drama. LOVE IT!
