I should probably preface this by saying I'm still a fangirl of Kame and YamaPi back from when they were teens. squeeee I've been waiting patiently for 12 years to see these 2 share a scene together (the idea of a full series was too much to hope for). They didn't disappoint. I don't know if they're friends (I don't even know if YamaPi is still a Johnny), but I do know their chemistry is unstoppable. YamaPi (Tomohisa Yamashita) plays a mysterious man that calls himself God. God is quirky and has his own way of speaking not unlike Akira from Nobuta wo Produce. Kame (Kazuya Kamenashi) plays Masaki Mokoto a somewhat uptight forthright guy. The female lead played by Fumino Kimura is a woman who has been hurt and has serious trust issues. One thing I've learned over the years about Kame is that he manages to have chemistry with everyone. I don't know if it's a Pisces ebb and flow thing, but there's never been a point in any of his dramas that I've thought 'ugh, why are they even in the same space?' He may prefer other roles (murderer, thief, alien, spy), but he excels at comedy and romance. In Boku Unmei he leads a great cast that work together like a well oiled machine. Aside from the 3 leads, the cast is peppered with great veteran actors. Their chemistry is fantastic. They truly work well together. Boku Unmei's production is top notch. It's well written. The directing and editing are good and there are no glaring continuity issues. There are many humorous if not downright funny scenes. The funniest are, of course, the ones between Mokoto and God. So, yeah, the story is pretty damn good. It's fairly original. God comes and tells an ordinary salaryman that he has to romance and impregnate his destined woman within a few months in order to save the world in 30 years. No pressure. The music is fine. There's a lot of classical including my favorite, Claire de Lune. The ending theme sung by Kame and YamaPi is fun only because of the ending scenes. Other than that it's pretty forgettable. Boku Unmei no Hito is a thoroughly enjoyable romcom with a high rewatch value. The characters are oddballs and the cast is great. The story is solid and good. You don't have to be someone who has been waiting for a Nobuta reunion of sorts to enjoy it. If you've never seen any of these actors before or if you've never watched a Japanese drama (for some odd reason), this is the one to watch.
