What a tearjerker. Not exactly a teenage show, though most who watched are teenagers and actors are young. This Japanese film speaks about the sadness in losing someone you love after knowing or being in a relationship with your friend for more than 20 years. *(The item had dated since they were kids. The guy had a weak heart and physical activities are a no for him. Even sex or even just looking at a bra on his girlfriend would be kinda strenuous for his heart too. So the guy felt really lousy and wanted to breakup by going to a really good college, thinking that the girlfriend wouldn't get in there. Surprisingly, she got in there too and she made an angry speak at him declaring her love for her and he tried to dump her by getting into that school, thinking she wouldn't. He tried to hang out with a long time female friend, whom also suffered heart problem and was about the past away. One day at the hospital, she asked if he could kissed her so that she can experience what a kiss is like before she died. He did it. He felt guilty. Because he knew his girlfriend still liked him. But true enough his friend died soon after the kiss. Every girl watching would thought he shouldn't have kissed her, but what do you think? That was her first and final kiss before she died.
A guy tried to chase his girlfriend, but his girlfriend refused to give in to him. One day, her boyfriend challenged this guy into a 100 metres sprint, knowing that he couldn't do it and he would beat him. Surprisingly he won the race even with this heart condition and he had a deal not to touch his girlfriend anymore. That guy, somehow got into an accident by a train and was in hospital. The boyfriend's doctor was his girlfriend's dad, a regular actor in japanese films. The doctor told him that he might get a transplant for him heart soon. However, he found out the heart he was receiving is actually from that guy, whom he had a race with. Because that guy was in a coma and may die. So he and his girlfriend was devastated when they found that out.
He couldn't get the transplant in the end because that guy had signs that he might get up from the coma. His girlfriend when to plead in tears to the parents to give his heart to her boyfriend. That was really moving. Many pour buckets of tears here. Her boyfriend was on life support and might die anytime too. One day, he woke up and he decided, since this might be his last chance, he would go out and have fun with his girlfriend for the entire day. He went to the fun fair and sat roller coaster and do things which he knew he's heart can't take it but still do it since it was his last opportunity. When he went back to hospital, his heart condition came back and he died in the end. She cried, they all cried including the audience.
In the end, she dressed in a wedding gown, and carried his earns to the church and married him that way in her heart. I love that touching scene. Its a movie worth watching over and over again.
Comparable to Aftershock in tear jerking. 4/5. Really sweet movie.
