Takemoto, Mayama, and Morita are students who go to an art school. Although they are poor, they live happy lives. One day, Teacher Hanamoto introduces them his cousin's daughter, Hagumi. She is little and so cute that Takemoto and Morita fall in love at the first sight. They begin to make approach to her. While Takemoto cannot express his love very well, Morita�s expression is too euphemistic to understand. Interlacing their emotions, time passes without noticing their love.
On the other hand, Mayumi loves Rika. She is an architect designer, and she still loves her husband died in a traffic accident. Mayumi's love toward Rika is getting bigger although he notices that a classmate, Yamada, loves him.

wow, i finished the anime and i have to say, im fairly macho, i like action and dont usually go for shojo, but i will freely admit i openly cried at the end of the last episode, i really felt a connection with takemoto and i was so sympathetic my stomach actually hurt, its been a very long time since a story has drawn me in like that so i have to give credit to the creator for making me love a story that was so sad

There are two live action Honey and Clover that have been released.

The movie was released after the end of the first season. I didn't like it. They changed the plot completely like making Mayama into a stalker of Rika and Yamada the stalker of Mayama. It's actually nice enough, but I watched it just when I finshed the anime so I rebelled.

The live action j-drama is on-going. Only 2 episodes have just been released so far. The actors are different from the ones in the movie. I love the guy who plays Takemoto! I like it better than the movie. The story also deviated from the anime a lot, but you will see certain anime moments (I wouldn't know if it's the same in the manga since I haven't read it), but it's been a couple of months since I saw the anime so I appreciated that I wouldn't be watching the same story all over again in j-drama format.

lol wow, i think its just a character quirk, i dont personally smoke, but a large percentage of the worlds population does, i think its just a layer added to the character, it doesnt really define their being, its just a trait that they have, i personally havent seen a huge amount of characters that were smoking alot but i dont watch every show that comes out. i think it would be weirder and less true to life for none of them to smoke, as long as it doesnt detract from the story i dont really see anything wrong with it

I wondered if anyone else was as disturbed as I was by the blatant and prolific depictions of smoking in this anime. If one counted how many times Mayama and Hanamoto-sensei are depicted as smoking or lighting up vs. the number of times they appear in scenes of the show, I think the results would be pretty shocking. I mean it's practically a 1:1 ratio.

I understand that having a character constantly lighting up or with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth has become something of a stock persona in anime/manga and aids in characterization. But I can't help but think that there are better ways of doing so. Are we really supposed to infer that being a smoker automatically means that person has certain character traits? How realistic is that?

And to have two such characters as majors in the show is just excessive (not to mention boring). This kind of short hand character design seems lazy and ineffective. Not to mention all that stuff about use of product placements and smoking in the media, blah, blah, blah.

Wow, this is the best news I've heard in awhile.. I really can't wait!!
I'm interested in seeing how they'll adapt the manga into live action... and I wonder if the ending will be any different... I haven't seen the live action movies either... I should try to get my hands on them!

"Honey and Clover Manga Gets TV Drama Adaptation
15-year-old Riko Narumi will star in the live-action television drama adaptation of Chica Umino's Honey and Clover manga, which will premiere on January 8. Umino's manga about five teenagers' road to adulthood has sold 8.13 million copies. 23-year-old Tōma Ikuta of the Johnny's Jr. idol talent firm will play the art student Yuuta opposite Narumi, who will play the talented but shy Hagumi. The manga already inspired two anime series and a live-action movie, all of which Viz has licensed for North America. Honey and Clover is the latest shōjo manga to get a live-action series after a hit anime. "

Yeah i haven't watched the Nana live-action movies at all...Probably because i am so wrapped up in the anime...But since Honey & Clover is already over I don't have the same hesitation...I think that i will probably get around to viewing it in the next couple of weeks...

Thanks for the info. I'll try and check that out sometime tonight since I may be busy once again this week. I hope I can get behind the movie. I tried to watch the first live-action movie for Nana and I couldn't watch all of it. I couldn't get behind the characters as they didn't pull at my emotions as much as the anime and Nana looked sick. I know the Nana in the manga is pale, but she looks healthy. The Nana in the movie looked one step away from death's door.
