Koizora/ Sky of Love



Synopsis:

Genre: Drama, Romance

Based on a popular true story cell phone novel in Japan, Koizora has taken over the box office.

Mika (Aragaki Yui) and Hiro (Muira Haruma) fell in love in highschool. During those three years, this couple would have to endure a lot of hardships during their young relationship. But something happens that would hurt both parties and move its viewers to tears.


I've heard a lot of comments on Koizora, so I got intruiged. There were no english subs when I tried to look for it, so I waited. And tadaaa, english subs are now available! I watched it immediately. Although the story is predictable in a way, this was a true story! Can you believe that? There were parts of the story that seems unreal to me (spoiler alert!) like the library scene (end of spoiler!). Anyways, this was a very good story and I could just feel the love between Mika and Hiro. A total love story... have some tissues handy ok!...>_<... Loooove it!
