Drama Digest

The movie special is adapted from the manga of the same name. Falling in love is not in our hands. It just happens over a cup of coffee or over glance in a book store or in a café. Falling in love is common but is going out different from it? Also, without marriage, is it wonderful to be linked to the same person forever?

All of these questions were raised in the 2019 drama Kakafukaka when Aki Terada and Akari fall in love with same man Honyo Tomoyo. In the drama, they fall in love but the reasons behind it were never given. What is it about him that was so attractive to them in the first place? Why did Akari, love his work or why did, Aki agree to his strange request?

The movie answers all of these questions whichis a twenty-minute special wherein Akari and Aki share their views and reasons for falling in love with him. Their love story is filled with strawberry kisses, noodles and a chemistry that cannot be missed.
