Tomorrow I Will Date with Yesterday’s You

In Japan, people engage in watching both Japanese movies and movies that are imported from abroad. More about the culture of movie in Japan some other day, I will introduce you one of the Japanese movies I've watched recently, which is 「ぼくは明日、昨日のきみとデートする」. It is, as you can probably see from the poster presented below, a romantic story between University students, and the English title is "Tomorrow I Will Date with Yesterday's You". It's based on one of the best sold book with the same title, and I myself had already read the book when they announced they are gonna make a movie out of it. I was really excited to see the movie, as it had already become one of my favourite book by the time the movie was released.



Brief story:
Takatoshi, a student of art university in Kyoto, falls in love with a girl when he sees her for the first time on the way to his university. They start to have conversation, and eventually start to go on date, but she cries every time they do something for the first time, like holding hands and calling each other by their first name (yes, in Japan, people don't call everyone with their first name at the beginning). Although curious why she cries so often, they keep falling in love with each other every minute, Takatoshi believed they will be able to stay next to each other forever...

I can't do a spoiler, I recommend you watch it :)

I also really liked the theme song of the movie, "Happy End" by the band called back number. Back number is one of the bands gaining popularity within Japanese teens recently, and they have some really good songs too. Check it out!
