Asian Movies - High School Debut

I recently came across this movie while I was bored and hanging out at youtube. At first I thought it was a JDrama since it was chopped up into pieces. After a first few parts I figured out it was actually a movie.

High school Debut very much reminded me of Nobuta wo Produce JDrama. It was the first thought that came to mind when I saw Haruna beg You to be her teacher. Watching her make a fool out of herself all the time was kinda fun, but it was also refreshing watching a person be herself without any guilt. I guess after all the trouble of trying to adapt her to the society, You realized that she's perfect just the way she is. It was really nice watching a love story unfold in such a short time, since it is a movie and not a JDrama, they did an excellent job of fitting everything in this movie in a perfect way.

If you like to watch school-love themed Asian movies/Dramas you will most certainly love this one. I highly recommend it!

Haruna Nagashima (Ito Ono) devoted herself to softball while in middle school. Now that she is in high school, Haruna believes its time find a boyfriend.

She can't fall in love with him...
