Upon initial viewing on my bedroom’s Philips 32” LCD tv, I would say the PQ deserves at least a 4-star.

Video in general is sharp, with minimal video noise during darker scenes. As the English title suggests, there are quite a few rainy scenes through out the film. In general, rain drops and wet hair look sharp and natural. I would also like to point the use of color tones (white balance) is great where, sad scenes look and offer a feeling of cold and isolation; while happier scenes certainly look warm and more comfortable. At the same time, transitions between different types of scenes are smooth and viewers don’t get the sense that, they are watch two different movies.

This is a dialog heavy film, and audio level / mixing etc sounded just right on my tv. Having said that, I will need to watch it again in the living room, before I can properly rate the audio.

This is not at all important, but despite updating the film's data myself with a link to its BD cover art, as well as message to both site admins on the same matter; they still haven't provide / uploaded the cover art for this release... oh well.

This was a very, very good chick flick. It reminded me a lot of Christmas in August. The PQ and AQ are both excellent. Subtitles are also very good. Only extra on this release is a trailer. The cover on this HK release make it seem to be a Japanese soft core adult film. It's nothing of the sort.

Highly recommended.
