REVIEW
Bokura Ga Ita (manga**if not read, it's highly recommended) will capture your heart because it will bring back your high school sweetheart, your first love, the one you still think about once-in-a-while if you didn't end up married. It's not a sugar coated story. It's real life. Things that can or will happen in a young romantic relationship.
The pairing of Ikuta Toma (brilliant actor) and Yuriko Yoshitaka is divine! You will love both characters individually and swoon at their love team, you'd wish they are real-life couple.
**there is a Bokura Ga Ita part 2 - so don't just cry at the ending of this movie.
