Plot
Risa Koizumi is the tallest girl in class, and the last thing she wants is the humiliation of standing next to Atsushi Otani, the shortest guy. But fate and the whole school have other ideas, and the two find themselves cast as the unwilling stars of a bizarre romantic comedy duo. As their friendship blossoms, so do Risa's feelings toward Otani. LOVE*COM examines the often-complicated feelings and comedic moments of the experience of dating people of different heights. These height complexes, and the romance that eventually ensues [ENSUES, not ensures] in spite of them, develop the Lovely Complex that this film is ultimately about.

Review
I wish it had been a longer so they could fit more in. It was a great film and could gone over 2 hours it was that enjoyable!
Cannot believe Tanaka Yoji was in it! I was so shocked by his appearance in it! xDD
A great film. Heartbreaking, heartwarming and funny. If you don't love these characters then WTF to you! Although I didn't like the girl so much to begin with you'll get over it. Her sister is hilarious though, might I just mention!
Predictable but satisfying story =] Just needs to be longer!! Haha ironic because the film is about height xD
Teppei is so cute! *huggles him*
