Hana Yori Dango II

A.K.A. Hana Yori Dango Returns. I was so excited when I heard there was going to be a sequel but I was also scared that it will turn out like "Meteor Garden II". Thank goodness it didn't and it was actually as good as the first one. This one is a lot sadder than the first one but the ending was perfect; I couldn't have asked for a better ending.

Inoue Mao: She was nothing but perfect. 5*****

Matsumoto Jun: He is Doumyouji Tsukasa. 5*****

Oguri Shun: He did a good job but I still felt something was lacking. 4****

Matsuda Shota: I'm glad he got a bigger role this time and he did well in his emotional scenes. 4****

Abe Tsuyoshi: He also got a bigger role but I wished they elaborated more on his character. 4****

Inoue Mao+Matsumoto Jun: They even had more chemistry this time around! 5*****

Inoue Mao+Oguri Shun: I still like Inoue Mao with Matsumoto Jun better. 4****

Matsuda Shota+Nishihara Aki: It's such a tease that they're still not a couple. 4****

Matsumoto Jun+Kato Natsuki: I felt sad for Kato Natsuki but they don't really look like a couple to me. 3***

OST: Both the songs by Arashi and Utada Hikaru are fantastic. 5*****

Rating: 5***** Although not as good as the first one, it's still very good.
