It's kind of interesting, to see what drives some to really contemplate what life really is. For some, it is a life changing decision. For others it is just a small thing that seems like nothing else in the routine. But at least in one day in life, there comes a time when a person really asks himself the value of living in this world.
Ever heard of Densha Otoko? It's a relatively new Japanese drama series based off a modern fairy tale. A untypical modern fairy tale that's based off of a true love story about an internet forum, an akihabara otaku and a professional woman. It's interesting, and hilarious at times with the juxtaposition of some of its shots. At times, its heart-warmingly pathetic, but this one so far looks like a winner.
Go, try to get it now! What have you got to lose?
On the topic of fairy tales and stories. The reasons we like them to be exaggerated so much is that we want them to be out of the ordinary, something outside our experience of our lives, but still firmly rooted in reality so that we can relate to it.
As a result, this series will probably be enjoyed more by the people that understand either how the internet forums work and/or know the basic premise of they story.
I should write more, but too busy watching it.
