era lbhn love passing over so called boundaries is charming, called yoi, yuri, gay, straight, really doesn't matter. Being genuine, so out of control like a flood breaking down all levies, walls... what makes love charming and heart warming
This movie had me crying in the end,but it was very touching.Like the fact that they just meet each other, yet still they were able to inspire each other to achieve their dreams. Guess, friendship can change a person no matter how short the time may be.
belle05scoty Of course this movie is not about friendship, mas about love. A love that is never explained, but it's there, hovering over them. The scene of Junya with her female friend in the middle of the film, makes this very clear.
Wow it was really amazing story, educative and fun The chemistry btn Junya and Shin were outstanding It's so sad Shin was suffering from the beginning but he has to pretend coz of Junya 😢😥😥 Pako is such a nice person he knew that Junya like Shin That meeting scene in the hometown was so touching 😢 even though Shin passed away but they were happy and jun did his best to take care of him Mom can smile now ☺ Omg Jun and shin are such a beautiful guys Shin's dimples 😍 is so cute and Jun's smile is amazing Maximum respect to all actors and actresses
I read a few comments that said it was a shame that they never consummated their love. Does that mean that they didn't have sex? I believe Junya consummated his love when he rode his bike to Shitaro's hometown to be with him. Shintaro didn't need to hear any "I love you's" from Junya seeing him arrive like that. That was pure love. That said more than words or a sexual act could ever say. Junya staying true to him till the end was pure love. Having sex and saying I love you do not necessarily mean that you share a true loving bond. This movie was a beautiful lesson on love.
you tell the point. that's the true love, not just sex, kiss, "I love you" the like. the story is so moving and it explains what is the true love between two boys.
But it would be nice if they did at least say "I love you". Because although action speaks louder than words, sometimes saying it out loud can be good too. The thought of them both being in love with each other and not being able to experience of what's it like to be a couple is just... 😢 Their time together is too short. Shintaro deserves to be happy for a long time with Junya 😭
thank you for uploading, it was a beautiful movie that had me crying at the end. i don't really care if people interpret it as bl or bromance as long as they appreciate the movie but honestly it was bl you dont need a kiss or smut to show it .......jun riding the bike to shin's hometown holding hands at his bedside thinking about him every waking moment was enough of a love confession to me.
A beautiful heartbreaking movie, I loved it, very true to what can happen in love to people we love and share our hearts with. I knew he had a tumor, my husband died with it in cancer, so this was so close to home for me in that respect. I'm glad they had each other til the end....😢
Who said that yaoi are only best for their sex scenes? That is a huge lie! What makes a good yaoi would be an awesome storyline and character development just like this video. I cried so much at the end. such a beautiful story.
Well.. Shounen Ai* means Romance between Boys, but Yaoi actually litteraly means Homo Hentai x3 just letting u know, but otherwise i know exactly what u mean ^-^
Okay I made a little mistake! I was on my projects 3 days without sleep. Well it was my fault. I shouldn't have commented when I was completely exhausted.
For all those whining about this not being BL. Can you really not read between the lines? Just because they don't come out and announce "yo dude I'm gay and totally non-platonically in love with you" or start ripping off each other's clothes doesn't mean it's not BL. Junya was in denial at first and not sure of his feelings until he heard Shin was dying. And by that point I don't think it was a good time to be starting a romantic relationship. Shin was in bad shape and most likely not in the mood for smut. Did you all not notice Shin here at 21:27 ? The way he looks at Junya? And then after he's afraid Junya caught him ogling but then Junya was oblivious at that time. Furthermore what do you think was the purpose of the subplot with the girl? Obviously to show Junya had feelings for Shin but couldn't admit it to himself, hence why he started distancing himself from him. And then the whole thing about Shin ordering margaritas for them like the bartender explains: margarita was created for a man's lover. I mean were you guys even paying attention? If all you want is sex scenes go watch an adult film instead of complaining here to the subber who took weeks of her time subbing this film to share with people and got nothing in return. Seriously.
I think we got the picture and understand it too, but i also did find it very boren. Who in the right mind at a such young age wants to get involved in a love relationship with someone who's about to die? Let's be realistic and keep the feet on the ground please
The only thing in this movie that was missing is them being honest about their feels for each other. This movie proves that every moment counts, don’t waste them by being afraid. Speak your heart and accept that pain is a part of life, but regret doesn’t have to be! Never be afraid to be honest about how your feels!
My friends call Me Weird On my back just becouse i love read and watch YAoi, but HELL No!!! I dont care, This is my life and this is my hobby.. Who the Hell are you want to Judge me... Anyone like me..??
Same here... Even i dnt understnd why they talk behind my back.... Just coz m in luv with bl mov....well at the end of the day... People have to undrstnd that love is love.... Love knows no gender...and no matter what we will alwys supprt....them🙂🙂🙂
Much Harmony and Balance for the dynamics of the LGBTQ community. ! Apropo, as a colleague said to Lisbet Salander (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) : 'friendship is the sincerest form of love'. Thanks for the upload. Oh, the humanity:
This was actually an amazing film. People keep saying it wasn't boy love but bromance. And I agree and disagree. There was one scene with the bartender that he reveals he's gay (the bartender) and this whole scene about the bartenders sexuality then after he ask if he's looking for Shinto (I know I spelled that wrong) I think this scene is suppose to lead us to believe that he indeed did have a romantic attraction to the other. Also at the point when they stop talking he says "I don't know why it hurts to much" I mean come on. Also with the girl, he didn't want to go on a date with her and he for sure didn't want to have sex, when the other asked him if he wanted to date her he just mumbled and didn't answer. Then that scene after they leave where he steps so close to him and they just stare. I mean. Sheesh. Sexual tension or what. The ending where he waits for her (the girl he went on a date with) to smile I think is just because everything is coming full circle, he didn't want to hurt her and he feels bad but when she smiled it was the last piece of the puzzle for him to feel complete. No bad blood. The two main actors chemistry was great and it ACTUALLY has a plot (some Japanese films go all over the place and you don't know what's going on). Yes there was no kissing but I think the boy love was heavily implied, but also a thought, if you knew you were going to die would you really want to start an sexually intimate intense relationship? Wouldn't that just hurt more for your partner in the end? But seriously watch it, everyone says they stopped after he found out about the others tumor but in a roundabout way there is a happy ending. Sigh... I just wrote a novel sorry but I needed to voice my opinion. :3
Athena Christensen I totally agree with everything you said in your comment! I think they were in the beginning stages of falling in love and Shintarou illness and possible future death made him not want to hurt Junya more if he died. Shintarou hid his illness from everyone especially Junya because he wanted everyone to continue to treat him normally and not feel awkward and sad. I always feel that when these characters decide to leave the ones they love without an explanation and die all alone that they've made a huge mistake. I would want to have every moment left with my loved one and help them through every single pain. I would feel so hurt and misunderstood if the person I loved chose to hide away and die to protect me. For those individuals who doubt that Junya and Shintarou were in love I ask "Did you watch the entire movie?" Junya showed nothing but friendship to the beautiful girl at work who adored him. What straight male would turn down a beautiful (drunk) girl offering herself fully in her bedroom? I also think the mother's fear of him being like his father was in regards to him possibly being gay also. She was very emotional about it. The bar scene and conversation was all to let us know that it was a gay bar and that Junya and Shintarou were more than just friends. If all of the scenes in this movie were between a girl and a boy we wouldn't have people questioning the couples relationship. It's only because the couple are a same sex couple and people are uncomfortable with the notion of two beautiful boys falling in love.
If I were going to die and I were with someone who loved or wanted me and I them, YES I would have an intimate sexual relations with them. Life is about experiencing and knowing Life, not about holding back from the profound gifts of the heart and body., to me. I understand the wish to preserve the feelings of the other... but I know from personal experience, holding back just gives them YEARS OF REGRETS about what might have been, even if only briefly. Your birthday is only once a year but you don't not celebrate even your last one because you don't want to miss it.
This warm hearted movie deals with the theme of love and friendship between two good looking and compatible men. They did not openly express their love or consummate their relationship but it is obvious that they had love for each other beyond friendship. Unfortunately circumstances forced this situation and thus the ending is sad but uplifting in many ways. Great movie.
I'm sorry but that doesn't even make sense...the fact that you're feeling something from the ending alone proves that you're no where near being a psychopath
How about swallowing reality? It might be that many people want happy endings - but there is no such thing - buy a fairy tale book if you need that. I LOST MY FIRST BOY FRIEND IN A CAR ACCIDENT - it needed ages to come over it - i still do have nightmares about it. I like it that way - probably as I battle cancer and the people I leave behind sooner or later have that bad feeling too.
I have seen this film a few times. It always brings me back to the most sincere part of it all... IT'S AWESOME, WE LOVE IT... thank you for sharing your your film with us, THANK YOU PRINCE MICHAEL GIOVANNI...
When he looked at the design of the bicycle at the end I started crying. Everyone dies no matter how much they want to live so just have to keep going and die with happiest of memories.
+Annonymous5411 I'm with you there! Damn, it was a relief. I was a little afraid of trying this out a few months back. Been disappointed countless times. But I'm glad this turned out really good. This deserves more views than the other ones I don't have to mention LoL
I was avoiding to watch seeing comments about sad ending. But I am glad that I watched it. I like the way this was portrayed, I felt their joy, sadness, energy. Glad that Shintaro enjoyed his last moments instead of trying to end it early. Junya will always treasure and carry Shintaro in his heart. This sad ending is much better than ridiculous sad ending most gay movies do.
i really love this movie.. it's so perceptible, it embodies actual non-specified yet broad emotions. what was also amazing was that there was no sexual content thus, it it distinguished from the rest that uses sex as a bait to watch the movie. applaud everyone who had a positive hand in this movie.. well done.
Even they dont confess to each other.. They can feel it.. Shintaro ask junya "no matter what please don't give up on your dream". He knows what gonna happen after the surgery... Even though, he give a new direction to junya... A promise... A promise that his dream will definitely achieve. I'm so touch.. I love it..
Great story and acting.Continue to inspire others to hold on to their dreams..This movie moved me and help me to believe again on my dreams.Such an awesome movie.
Again i'm crying my eyes , i love this movie it has a beautiful heart warming story, love the raw emotion on Junya face when he is racing to Shintaro hometown..WOWOWOW. ..just awesome, very talented actors.
Everyone will die, sooner or later. Dying is not a problem. The problem is not live. When Junya and Shintaro met for the first time, they were not living. It was the meeting of these two sorrows that born the joy of living for both. The only thing that made me really sad in this film is the fact they have not consummated the love between them. But this kind of thing seems so as particular feature of Japanese culture that until I give up trying to understand.
But I think they did. I mean I understand there were no "I love u"s no kisses but are they all it takes to complete someone's love for other. The simple act of juntya (spelling may be wrong) of travelling all the distance just to meet him and then keeping him company until the end speaks his love louder than saying it out. And as for shinta him keeping his promise to the person he loves is more than enough. Though it's just my opinion.
one if the BEST movies I have ever seen I cried when Shintaro died it was really sad but i am happy kawasagi is going to fulfill his dream...and he had help from shintaro all in all this is a beautiful movie
i have seen a few japanese boy love stories i few years ago, actually more than ten but the actors always seem so genuine in their role. i think chemistry is a big part of it as we can witness here for ourselves. being so long ago i am curious on their whereabouts as of today. i wish them all well and success is guaranteed.
this video that ive watched had made me very emotional it was well done and played and the two main characters played their part very well i got emotional with the scene well done i loved it i also loved the two main actors doing this video im happy about the whole scene and i was very honored to see it i thank you it is brilliant.
Am a mother of 3. And I have watched BL dramas by accident just late last year. And I was so amazed and surprised that they have good stories and good actors so to speak. Much more it was not all about sex or " porno " . Instead, they show to us how difficult to live life, the struggle, and how biased and prejudiced we are to them. Watching BL dramas gives me a broader horizon to better understand them and appreciate them as equally and normal human being. And honestly, I find male actors are better than female actors. No offensement. Their acting is so intense especially in showing their emotions. Oh, my...it really touches to the very core of my heart. It makes me sad to see them why they could not live a normal life as a couple. Are they not entitled for their own happiness? Is love limited only to....Whom?❤️😘
Such a beautiful story , how shintaro bring a shine to junya life , such a great chemistry and can feel the feeling that they want to present , shintaro spirit keep alive on junya life and journey ❤ ~thank you for the beautiful story and the moral ❤
This was truly an amazing story of two great friends who enjoy life together to the fullest until the end. I'm so sad it ended this way with him at only 23 years old dying so young and had a good the most awesome, amazing, fun loving time of his life. The ending was so, so sad, i felt so emotional and felt like crying. I. would of loved the happy ending.
Poor Shintaro!😢 At least a little kiss and maybe an "I love you" from Junya! Shintaro wished this, he was in love with Junya, it was obviously. And Junya was a bit confused, but later he realized he loved Shintaro and not just as a good friend. Too late. So sad! 😭
BL or Bromance, it doesn't matter. It is how this movie taught us a lesson that no matter what happen, there would always be a one person that would be with you and support you to reach your goal. To those people who felt like giving up, just always imagine that Shintaro would always be with you and will follow whatever your chosen path is. I hope that Japanese Entertainment would do this kind of film more.😍💕👍👍👍👍
Even though he died I'm going see it as a happy ending (yes I cried a little dont judge me😂). Before they found each other one was depressed and wanted to kill himself. The other was just walking through life a shadow after his father died with a mother who was also depressed. They breathed life into each other. Even though they never acted on it they were falling love (I dont care if they never kissed or hugged). That love strengthened them. It allowed them one to leave with a smile fulfilling a promise. The other found his dream/path/goal for his life. Since they were both happier I'll see it as happy.
i thnk my self for learning such language cz thats y i could watch such good film like this ..i loved it ..arigatho gozaimas (thnk u ) for making such beautifull film ..
I cried so much. I wish the ending was different but I'm still happy with the movie. It was a great movie and even thought the ending was sad I don't regret watching it
I watched it again for the second time and it was a great movie. The ending was somewhat emotional. Any movie like this one is sad when one of the individual dies.
okay just finished watching this. Id say this was a good watch! Its more a shounen ai level, or perhaps just some really beautiful simple bromance but yeah pretttty refreshing watching this! Cinematography is pretty spot on with theme of a cyclists life
I'm sitting here crying like Armin from AoT. Haha, but this was a bit cheesy at first but here I am crying over Shintaro. They didn't even confess their love for each other T_T
they know they love each other,and so with out a word love came ,and when the same way .but they know ,they already love each othe,r in there mind and in there heart.
Beautiful film but was waiting for them saying "I love you" to each other, a tender kiss maybe....but I knew it would never happen based on how the story was unfolding. Why is that gay films always have a tragic ending at some level? I feel that filmmakers wether they are gays or not always perpetrate that idea that gay love never leads to anything good, to an happy ever after ending. Why is that? Millions of lgbtq people are living their love very freely and happily. We need to see those happy and successful love stories. That may help change the negative misconceptions, and let younger people know that love is love and it is Ok to fall in love and be with anybody they want.
In an important book "The Celluloid Closet" by Vito Russo, he condemns Hollywood formula where gays always end up dead. He provides a necrology as an appendix in his book. It was a very important book of the 1980s challenging Hollywood's treatment of the gay community. Though this being Japan, the idea of suicide often has a different meaning, but I still regard the prevalence of endings with death with suspicion. Also, I think that writers and directors don't know how to have a story line with deep drama without someone dying. They are a prisoner of cliches.
I am 75 ysar old grandma. Loved movie so much. Glad. Not series. Ull see i texted. A year ago they are both so handsome really loved movie new york❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good movie. I enjoyed it. Definite undertones of BL but a solid bromance film if nothing else. There was friendship, respect and love...can't ask for more.
Very inspiring... How I wish it was a good ending... But anyway, life goes on and on... Love is just in the air... When you feel it's coming just let your feelings be welcoming to what it brings you... Just like the love being shown in this film... Just love the best way you can give to anyone..
AWWW SHUCKS!!!!! theyre sooo cute!!! l will cherish these 20 min of lighthearted scenes and then just cry tears of blood later on when the other guy dies.
Wow!! This is Really good and sad story!! It kinda reminds me and my mom. (RIP MOM) We had that same problem, but she died after one year and few months.. I'll never forget mom!! Thanks.
Wow so many opinion. ...this little four letter word that's called love it's been express and define in so many ways. .one can imagine. .just like these two in the movie, it's not only by making love or kissing one can tell you have true love people out there can pretend just to get what they want ...it's felt deeply and you just know it. ..love is a powerful word. ..make good use with it don't waste it because when time comes and you will want some and come looking for it. ..it will be too late ...give love. .share love and you will receive in abundance. .like these two
So far, fascinating contrast of protagonists. Great development of all characters, even smaller roles. Story arcs well done, as well. BTW: For pearl clutchers, NO GRAPHIC SCENES, so watch without fear.

I like how this movie showcases depression in a raw form, and displays how being with someone you care about can help you in those low moments.
I love Japanese movies. They are full of such wonderful stories, characters and actors also.

If I were going to die and I were with someone who loved or wanted me and I them, YES I would have an intimate sexual relations with them. Life is about experiencing and knowing Life, not about holding back from the profound gifts of the heart and body., to me. I understand the wish to preserve the feelings of the other... but I know from personal experience, holding back just gives them YEARS OF REGRETS about what might have been, even if only briefly. Your birthday is only once a year but you don't not celebrate even your last one because you don't want to miss it.

Athena Christensen awesome post and I agree completely!
c'est un magnifique film ,un amour non avoué entre deux amis , les artistes ont beaucoup de talents merci pour la traduction en français
I truly enjoyed this movie and the actors in it...!!! Thanks so much for the English subtitles too...😃
This warm hearted movie deals with the theme of love and friendship between two good looking and compatible men. They did not openly express their love or consummate their relationship but it is obvious that they had love for each other beyond friendship. Unfortunately circumstances forced this situation and thus the ending is sad but uplifting in many ways. Great movie.
I'm freaking done
These endings.. I swear I'm gonna become a depressed psychopath very soon
I feel you
I'm sorry but that doesn't even make sense...the fact that you're feeling something from the ending alone proves that you're no where near being a psychopath
Same
Wen Jing Fang she wasn’t Implying she’s a psychopath. She meant that these sad endings are going to drive her insane
How about swallowing reality? It might be that many people want happy endings - but there is no such thing - buy a fairy tale book if you need that. I LOST MY FIRST BOY FRIEND IN A CAR ACCIDENT - it needed ages to come over it - i still do have nightmares about it. I like it that way - probably as I battle cancer and the people I leave behind sooner or later have that bad feeling too.
I have seen this film a few times. It always brings me back to the most sincere part of it all... IT'S AWESOME, WE LOVE IT... thank you for sharing your your film with us, THANK YOU PRINCE MICHAEL GIOVANNI...
When he looked at the design of the bicycle at the end I started crying. Everyone dies no matter how much they want to live so just have to keep going and die with happiest of memories.
Finally a Japanese BL with good acting, but no kissing and sad ending T_T. I still liked the movie though
+Annonymous5411 I'm with you there! Damn, it was a relief. I was a little afraid of trying this out a few months back. Been disappointed countless times. But I'm glad this turned out really good. This deserves more views than the other ones I don't have to mention LoL
"In the end we were all just humans, drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness"...
I was avoiding to watch seeing comments about sad ending. But I am glad that I watched it. I like the way this was portrayed, I felt their joy, sadness, energy. Glad that Shintaro enjoyed his last moments instead of trying to end it early. Junya will always treasure and carry Shintaro in his heart. This sad ending is much better than ridiculous sad ending most gay movies do.
i really love this movie.. it's so perceptible, it embodies actual non-specified yet broad emotions. what was also amazing was that there was no sexual content thus, it it distinguished from the rest that uses sex as a bait to watch the movie. applaud everyone who had a positive hand in this movie.. well done.
Even they dont confess to each other.. They can feel it.. Shintaro ask junya "no matter what please don't give up on your dream". He knows what gonna happen after the surgery... Even though, he give a new direction to junya... A promise... A promise that his dream will definitely achieve. I'm so touch.. I love it..
Great story and acting.Continue to inspire others to hold on to their dreams..This movie moved me and help me to believe again on my dreams.Such an awesome movie.
Again i'm crying my eyes , i love this movie it has a beautiful heart warming story, love the raw emotion on Junya face when he is racing to Shintaro hometown..WOWOWOW. ..just awesome, very talented actors.
Everyone will die, sooner or later. Dying is not a problem. The problem is not live. When Junya and Shintaro met for the first time, they were not living. It was the meeting of these two sorrows that born the joy of living for both.
The only thing that made me really sad in this film is the fact they have not consummated the love between them. But this kind of thing seems so as particular feature of Japanese culture that until I give up trying to understand.
But I think they did. I mean I understand there were no "I love u"s no kisses but are they all it takes to complete someone's love for other. The simple act of juntya (spelling may be wrong) of travelling all the distance just to meet him and then keeping him company until the end speaks his love louder than saying it out. And as for shinta him keeping his promise to the person he loves is more than enough. Though it's just my opinion.
There are times actions are louder than words! I am crying at the end! Beautiful story of friendships love ❤️ 👏👏👏
one if the BEST movies I have ever seen I cried when Shintaro died it was really sad but i am happy kawasagi is going to fulfill his dream...and he had help from shintaro all in all this is a beautiful movie
i have seen a few japanese boy love stories i few years ago, actually more than ten but the actors always seem so genuine in their role. i think chemistry is a big part of it as we can witness here for ourselves. being so long ago i am curious on their whereabouts as of today. i wish them all well and success is guaranteed.

this video that ive watched had made me very emotional it was well done and played and the two main characters played their part very well i got emotional with the scene well done i loved it i also loved the two main actors doing this video im happy about the whole scene and i was very honored to see it i thank you it is brilliant.
Toda ves q vejo esta sere eu digo q rapas bonito de um sorriso lindo...eu fico encantada com o rosto dele.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤lindo e pouco.
Am a mother of 3. And I have watched BL dramas by accident just late last year.
And I was so amazed and surprised that they have good stories and good actors so to speak. Much more it was not all about sex or " porno " .
Instead, they show to us how difficult to live life, the struggle, and how biased and prejudiced we are to them.
Watching BL dramas gives me a broader horizon to better understand them and appreciate them as equally and normal human being.
And honestly, I find male actors are better than female actors. No offensement.
Their acting is so intense especially in showing their emotions. Oh, my...it really touches to the very core of my heart.
It makes me sad to see them why they could not live a normal life as a couple. Are they not entitled for their own happiness? Is love limited only to....Whom?❤️😘
im addicted now for this kind of movie since i watched the uncontrol love now i cant refuse to watch this 👍👍👍
Such a beautiful story , how shintaro bring a shine to junya life , such a great chemistry and can feel the feeling that they want to present , shintaro spirit keep alive on junya life and journey ❤
~thank you for the beautiful story and the moral ❤
This movie had me choking up at the 😭 what a beautiful story ugh😭🌸💖🌸
Same tho How do you not cry by the end?
This was truly an amazing story of two great friends who enjoy life together to the fullest until the end. I'm so sad it ended this way with him at only 23 years old dying so young and had a good the most awesome, amazing, fun loving time of his life. The ending was so, so sad, i felt so emotional and felt like crying. I. would of loved the happy ending.
I like the movie, characters were good, handsome... also it was a big bromance... but nothing wrong with that.😇 Thanks again.
Poor Shintaro!😢 At least a little kiss and maybe an "I love you" from Junya! Shintaro wished this, he was in love with Junya, it was obviously. And Junya was a bit confused, but later he realized he loved Shintaro and not just as a good friend. Too late. So sad! 😭
7/29/22--I just found this gem. More bromance than BL but I am not minimizing it. True friendship we should all admire if not envy.
BL or Bromance, it doesn't matter. It is how this movie taught us a lesson that no matter what happen, there would always be a one person that would be with you and support you to reach your goal. To those people who felt like giving up, just always imagine that Shintaro would always be with you and will follow whatever your chosen path is. I hope that Japanese Entertainment would do this kind of film more.😍💕👍👍👍👍
Even though he died I'm going see it as a happy ending (yes I cried a little dont judge me😂). Before they found each other one was depressed and wanted to kill himself. The other was just walking through life a shadow after his father died with a mother who was also depressed.
They breathed life into each other. Even though they never acted on it they were falling love (I dont care if they never kissed or hugged). That love strengthened them. It allowed them one to leave with a smile fulfilling a promise. The other found his dream/path/goal for his life. Since they were both happier I'll see it as happy.
i thnk my self for learning such language cz thats y i could watch such good film like this ..i loved it ..arigatho gozaimas (thnk u ) for making such beautifull film ..
beautiful movie.. great script, directing, actors are superb.. brilliant!!!
I cried so much. I wish the ending was different but I'm still happy with the movie. It was a great movie and even thought the ending was sad I don't regret watching it
Really great movie with out any romantic scene they both melting the all the 💕 hearts. Awesome acting.
I watched it again for the second time and it was a great movie. The ending was somewhat emotional. Any movie like this one is sad when one of the individual dies.
I love every bit of this beautiful piece although it was a twisted ending i loved it....
okay just finished watching this. Id say this was a good watch! Its more a shounen ai level, or perhaps just some really beautiful simple bromance but yeah pretttty refreshing watching this! Cinematography is pretty spot on with theme of a cyclists life
I'm sitting here crying like Armin from AoT. Haha, but this was a bit cheesy at first but here I am crying over Shintaro. They didn't even confess their love for each other T_T
attack on titan ???
Saaaammmeree 😞🥺😞😭😭😭😭😭😭
ATTACK ON TITAN!!!!!!!
I was moved to cry. no sex, no kiss, but the story is so awesome. I love it.
I am so sad... why i just found this story in 2019 😭😭😭😭
Me at march 2020😂💘
I'm sadder coz I found this in 2020
But am the worst one am here in 2022
me.16 oct,2023 here
And now I'm in tears. This was so wonderful!
Who are these two amazing young men?
That was a really good movie with a good story behind it. Different than most bl movies I've seen.
they know they love each other,and so with out a word love came ,and when the same way .but they know ,they already love each othe,r in there mind and in there heart.
it's been ages since I watched this, but I always come back to it.
Beautiful film but was waiting for them saying "I love you" to each other, a tender kiss maybe....but I knew it would never happen based on how the story was unfolding. Why is that gay films always have a tragic ending at some level? I feel that filmmakers wether they are gays or not always perpetrate that idea that gay love never leads to anything good, to an happy ever after ending. Why is that? Millions of lgbtq people are living their love very freely and happily. We need to see those happy and successful love stories. That may help change the negative misconceptions, and let younger people know that love is love and it is Ok to fall in love and be with anybody they want.
In an important book "The Celluloid Closet" by Vito Russo, he condemns Hollywood formula where gays always end up dead. He provides a necrology as an appendix in his book. It was a very important book of the 1980s challenging Hollywood's treatment of the gay community. Though this being Japan, the idea of suicide often has a different meaning, but I still regard the prevalence of endings with death with suspicion. Also, I think that writers and directors don't know how to have a story line with deep drama without someone dying. They are a prisoner of cliches.
Oh thank God, yes.
Well gay relationships goes against the norm of human nature, so maybe its human nature rejecting it.
@@MTFOphantom Well, that's not exactly true. Since it actually appears in nature.
@@philliprumans753 Goes against human nature as in to breed. Two people of the same sex cant breed. Its like magnets almost in a way.
I am 75 ysar old grandma. Loved movie so much. Glad. Not series. Ull see i texted. A year ago they are both so handsome really loved movie new york❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Good movie. I enjoyed it. Definite undertones of BL but a solid bromance film if nothing else. There was friendship, respect and love...can't ask for more.
74 year old woman. I loved loved. This movie

Surprised to find that a BL movie could be so heartwrenching and moving.
Kashiwagi is really cute when he SMILE ❤️😍
Very inspiring... How I wish it was a good ending... But anyway, life goes on and on... Love is just in the air... When you feel it's coming just let your feelings be welcoming to what it brings you... Just like the love being shown in this film... Just love the best way you can give to anyone..
It was a beautiful movie.Thanks for upload it :') ~~ Wow....Now I'm crying for Shintaro....really :'(
Oohh i'm in love with kashiwagi... wow.. and japanese bl stories have good chemistry and having good chemistry between couples more than others 😌❤
I liked this movie very much my only grievance is that Shintaro didn't survive the surgery. I wanted him to survive and then grow old with Junya.
Ikr same...

AWWW SHUCKS!!!!! theyre sooo cute!!! l will cherish these 20 min of lighthearted scenes and
then just cry tears of blood later on when the other guy dies.
😢😢😢😢 vou fazer terapia agora. Eu não esperava que ele morresse 😢😢😢😢 , mas eu amei esse BL.
Wow!! This is Really good and sad story!! It kinda reminds me and my mom. (RIP MOM) We had that same problem, but she died after one year and few months..
I'll never forget mom!! Thanks.
Super I like it. Friendship is important in the life of any human being
Majority of people saying it have a sad ending ....but nothing bad in ending its good ...nice film ...
Everything about this movie is great!
Wow so many opinion. ...this little four letter word that's called love it's been express and define in so many ways. .one can imagine. .just like these two in the movie, it's not only by making love or kissing one can tell you have true love people out there can pretend just to get what they want ...it's felt deeply and you just know it. ..love is a powerful word. ..make good use with it don't waste it because when time comes and you will want some and come looking for it. ..it will be too late ...give love. .share love and you will receive in abundance. .like these two
久しぶりに観たけど感動だわ。。。‼️私は、DVDまで買ってしまった🎵
So far, fascinating contrast of protagonists. Great development of all characters, even smaller roles. Story arcs well done, as well.
BTW: For pearl clutchers, NO GRAPHIC SCENES, so watch without fear.
