I do not believe this contains any spoilers, just a brief description of one important scene to me, but don't want to risk getting blacklisted, hence the overly cautious warning.
I've seen Lost In Translation more than 20 times, and it was my favorite, non action film. Even favorites can get old, but Tokyo Fiancée is so magnifique, that if I were watching both for the first time, I would likely say that Tokyo Fiancée is my favorite, non action film! I discovered it by fortune, saying "Tokyo" into my remote, and it popped up on Netflix, which fortunately, I subscribe to. What makes Tokyo Fiancée so extra special to me, besides the charming story, adorable/likable characters and actors, plus the shocking ending, is the cinematography and so much time given to the heavenly sites of Japan, both city & nature. It portrays the real Japan, the way I know it. Oddly, there is one scene, the only scene, in which Japanese game-show like hearts appear, and Amélie dances & sings, poorly, but from the heart, overlooking the most beautiful city in the world, with the view of my dreams, from my dream apartment, and I cry tears of joy, longing & sadness at that point, every-time! I've only seen it three times so far, and am still catching new surprises, especially because of the subtitles, so I miss some scenery & some dialogue. I have yet to catch the editing goofs, like I know so well about Lost In Translation. The song at the end, Big in Japan Performed by Ane Brun, is wonderful!
