Hallelujah Chance! (~_^). was his battlecry for another shot at his terrible past. wala akong balak magbigay ng spoiler dito no. It’s a light-hearted, feel-good story tungkol sa isang guy… wait, spoiler na ito!

anyway, What did I liked about this series? First it was funny. I never liked cry-all-you-want dramas. The plot is unique too, though the idea of travelling in time is as old as fiction itself. In time-warping stories, little things that are made in the past has this freakish snow-ball-domino-effect on the future. but not in this case, it really doesn’t matter what will happen, but things that should and will happen, will still be present. The plot is carefully designed so that the main topic focuses only on the conflict of the story. People love the idea time-travelling, so its no wonder thier imaginations run wild if time travelling would indeed be possible.

it was also my first jdorama. hehe, been a good fan of the japanese pop culture (read:anime) for a long time, but I was first addicted to korean and taiwanese productions since 5 years ago. (read:meteor garden), I was hesistant at first, because I saw from japanese movies that thier actors act too anime.or was it the other way around?:D

however, as most things are, nothing is perfect. the pace is still sluggish for a 11-episode + 3 specials for a drama, and I sometimes found myself fast forwarding the scenes wherein the script almost repeats the same lines, different scripts for different roles, but the same meaning!

at the end, unlike the other dramas I’ve watched, this one is not that butt-ugly(attention, kdramas), it was short, yet sweet, but still has few moments to be funny and cute.

ps. mikio is cute and my favorite, but somehow he resembles someone I knew in school. dibale nalang nga. deym. a slight warning to onion skins, this one is a heart-wrencher!A lot of goofs are worth checking out(clue: running.)
