Japanese Drama 18-sai, Niizuma, Furin Shimasu. is a romance turned into a thriller
Story
Meika, an heiress to a rich family, is planned by her family to marry after graduation. However, she has hatched a plan of her own, to marry her bodyguard in a contract marriage, which will allow her to find her true love elsewhere.
Japanese Drama 18-sai, Niizuma, Furin Shimasu is a romantic comedy with a tragic twist towards the end.
The drama maintains a light mood in the first half, with the couple being interesting to follow, with many sweet moments between them. The drama actually didn’t shy off from having the couple in more intimate scenes as well.
Things got a three-sixty turn in the final episodes, however. It did give an unexpected twist, even though the amnesia part is a cheesy trope that many dramas use, but it didn’t fit smoothly with the rest of the story.
Still, the drama was enjoyable and intense.
Characters
Meika is a rich heiress who is cute and girly. She has her own views on relationships and love.
Yabuki Nako was truly adorable.
Ko is Meika’s bodyguard and husband. He is a man of few words, a quiet character who has strong emotions nevertheless.
Fujii Ryusei gave an enjoyable performance.
Cinematography
The drama had a nice pace.
Overall
My overall review of the Japanese Drama 18-sai, Niizuma, Furin Shimasu. is 7 out of 10. The couple was adorable.
