Hime, a chubby girl, is in university and currently job hunting. During an info session at one of the companies, she accidentally gets hurt but receives help from the company’s information desk clerk, Osamu. Hime falls in love at first sight with the totally prince-like Osamu. She’d like to meet him once again and in order to accomplish this, she works hard on her diet and loses 50kg! She starts working at the same company, but even after 1 year she still hasn’t found him. Then one day, the number one handsome man within the company and rumored son of a distinguished family transfers to Hime’s department. This turns out to be Osamu! In her brief moment of happiness at their reunion, Osamu frankly declares, “I have someone I’m interested in” and Hime loses all her courage. However, why does Osamu do things like hugging Hime, whispering sweet words to her, and treating her special? Will Hime be kept being played by this unexpected doting love…!?

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
