Japanese Drama '' Honey Lemon Soda '' is a school romantic comedy with a basic plot.
The beginning of the drama, if I have to be honest, was enjoyable enough, typical shoujo manga adaption, but entertaining nevertheless. The characters seemed interesting and their chemistry was spot on.
However, the story started getting boring and frustrating. Especially the leading lady's character was too hopeless and the drama that appeared here and there to spice up the story was eye rolling. But, I appreciated that they had them as a couple halfway through the movie and not just at the end.
The performances, finally, were all good by every actor and actress of the cast.
So, overall, three out of ten.

Not Good Enough
It's fresh as lemon soda!
Having read the whole manga & still continuing, I was too excited for this live action. I can say..this was a really good one. Raul & Ai were the perfect Miura Kai & Ishimori Uka❤
