Besides that, the actors are all skilled and/or charismatic, the characters are all likeable (flaws included!), and the directing, lighting, styling and even the editing are all incredibly well-done and perfectly tailored to the tone of the show.įULL REVIEW (some spoilers here, but nothing big): This is not the only area in which the show feels fresh and progressive, and it handles much more than simple romance, without ever keeping you on your toes too much - it mostly remains upbeat and harmless. The 'hook' is that the main male lead dresses and acts without regard for typical gender roles stylist Meguru enjoys wearing frills and dresses and bright nail-art and makeup, while model Kira prefers long sleek skirts, see-through blouses and an occasional harness. MINI REVIEW: Colorful Love is a light-hearted, fun-loving celebration of differences. I didn't expect much and was blown away by how this show succeeds at every single thing it sets out to do! Colorful Love is everything it needs to be and more I started watching this because I was looking for more josei manga to read and it was easier to find information about the show than the manga - which was because it was actively airing at the time.
