Diamond in the Rough
I added this to my to watch list b/c I recently watched Ouran High School Host Club and fell head over hills for Yusuke Yamamoto. He is even more attractive in this even when all of his screaming and yelling got on my nerves. I genuinely liked this series and cried my eyes out most episodes even when shits got super annoying like Akabane. Totally loved the cast of cute boys. I know that's shallow but that how I pick and watch shows. Now I have a new crush, Miura Shohei. This was a nice, easy sports drama to watch and enjoy.I really loved the relationship between Wataru and Kaachan. This was the best parent/child relationship I have seen in an Asian drama since I started watching. The only thing that annoyed me was the lie she told him about his father. It's something I hate no matter what genre I'm watching or reading. Loved the guys getting to know each other and getting past preconceived notions.
Overall enjoyable series. I would not watch again b/c like I've said before that's not my ja. I really enjoyed the theme song but cannot get on Spotify - so sad!!

Ну а если, серьёзно - про крепкую мужскую дружбу в самом нерейтинговом смысле этого слова, про любовь (спокойно - все по-японски издалека), про отцов и детей, ответственность и долг, семью и одиночество. В общем, правильная дорама. Хотя сцены в бане когда голенькие мальчики и их много - это перебор для нежных девичьих сердец
Из актеров хорош Ямамото Юсукэ и Сэто Кодзи, но остальные не подкачали. Нравился малец - "Брательник Гг-ни из Цветочков" и рыжий друган тоже ничего.

Where have jdrama's been all my life? Well, I know, so once upon a time I was a shallow girl who looked only for romantic comedies and romance movies, would watch them, sometimes be disappointed in it, specially some Japanese movies I watched where the acting seemed a little bland, the story lines clichéd and the romace not so believable, and had almost given up on Japanese entertainment. I was Ofcourse wrong to have judged the entire industry based on a few films 'I' didn't like. However, in came Kimura Takuya on a white horse and since, life hasn't been the same. (But that's another story)
Even then, the j dramas I watched were mostly romantic comedies and such.
While looking up Jdramas I just came across 'tumbling' and thought well,why not? I like sports, I love bromance and brotherhood, so why not? BEST DESICION. I absolutely adore this drama. It's just one of those things which leaves you feeling gooooood and inspired as heck. We can all do it!! We're all capable of achieving our goals and we'll almost always find friendship if we look, carefully.
What I loved about this drama is how not everything is magically solved at the end of the day as it happens in movies/dramas usually. The boys encounter one problem after another, but they get through together and that's really what matters. It also deals with a lot of different topics in a teenagers life. We're all misfits, doesn't mean we all have to be misfits alone.
The acting was great, the performances and everything ,amazing. It doesn't have 'romance' as such, and it doesn't even matter. I think it has changed my views on 'non-romance' dramas and encouraged me to go beyond just specific genres and explore. Also made me like the sports genre alot.
I would highly recommend this drama to people of all ages!

I will start with my major complain saying that this series deserves much more viewers than it actually has. This is my plea to all of you to give this Japanese series a try.
Anyway, I don't know how to put my feelings into words with this Jdrama but I will give it a try, so bare with me.
Tumbling was about finding your dream in an unexpected situation. It was about chasing what you love no matter the sacrifices, because in the end you just found something that is worthy to fight for. Tumbling was about people with the same goal; individuals so different that found something to lean on. It was about working together. It was about the sadness that accompanies failure and the happiness when you finally succeed in what you love. It was about giving your best not just for you, but for others. Tumbling was about throwing away your selfishness and fighting for your team.
If I could describe Tumbling with just one word I would use 'friendship'. The series focuses on every character and it gives us a satisfying background about everyone. There is no hero as every single character has its flaws and that is why this series is special to me. Tumbling teaches you that you alone can't achieve everything and an individual doesn't just have to, but needs people who will be there in the happy moments and in any difficult situation. Moreover, judging people just from the way they act or look is something that has been told many times through series and movies, but tumbling does it in a different way. I loved how every character had its weak and strong points and that fights and disappointment sometimes can't be avoided in a friendship. Tumbling shows that friendship is about mutual support, that your friends also have feelings on their own that may be even more complicated that yours. Lastly, I was attached to every single character and I felt like I was fighting with them, I laughed and I cried with them. Maybe it was over the top at times, but it was also as humane as it could be.
Tumbling is not perfect, it definitely has its flaws, but it doesn't matter, because in the end it has so many things to offer.
