All I do on this app is yap while my eyes are swollen from crying.
I love how Yu Aoi’s characters often reflect my childhood dreams. I first saw her in Honey and Clover, and I deeply admired her role because I used to love drawing as a child and once hoped to take art classes when I grew older (but yeah, that never happened). Now, in this film, her character as a pâtissière mirrors another dream I’ve carried since I was young. I spent time watching videos of people baking and decorating cakes, which greatly inspired me. Even now, I still dream of becoming a pastry chef someday, although my life has taken a somewhat different path. I continue to enjoy watching pastry-making videos, and of course, I love indulging in pastries myself. That’s why, when I first heard about this film, my interest was instantly sparked, as I just knew I was going to love it.
Her character, on the other hand, is genuinely compelling. I know she may have temper issues, but the way she deals with people feels far more grounded than those who become overly submissive or excessively nice when handling situations. It highlights her authenticity, while there’s a quiet sense of compassion beneath it. I really love how Yu Aoi portrayed her character in this film—it only made me admire her even more!
Also, talking about the story itself, I know some people might find this film clichéd, but I genuinely love it. I love clichés (no shame). There’s something incredibly heartwarming about it, and it makes me feel so fulfilled. I enjoy this movie so much—like, I’m obsessed! It’s deeply rewarding to watch Tomura (Yosuke Eguchi) reconnect with his passion and to see Natsume (Yu Aoi) finally realize what truly drives her. Choosing her work over a man was absolutely the best decision she could have made. So, here’s to many more delicious pastries baked by Natsume!
