Hedgehog
The unethical scientist, the apple of his father’s eye, while Japan has done the programming and seemingly set up the computers, it is Hedgehog’s theories and execution that are getting the time machine somewhere. However, if you speak to Hedgehog, the time machine has become much more.
Dummy
Unlike his brothers, Dummy doesn’t do much regarding the science of trying to bring their mother back to life. However, he does provide the drugs they want to get inspiration.
Japan
Despite being his older brother, Japan is Hedgehog’s right hand, and it seems he handles a lot of the programming aspects of allowing the time machine to operate.
Samantha
Samantha is Dummy’s girlfriend, or at least he claims she is, but from what it appears, she doesn’t see them as exclusive.

Low Points
It’s Not Consistently Engaging
“She Loved Blossoms More” is an incredibly dry movie. Hedgehog and Japan are mood-killing characters who bring no sense of energy or urgency to the film and, even when high on drugs or drunk, aren’t entertaining. As for Dummy, the best thing he does for the film is bring Samantha into it, and, as noted below, her appeal is limited and short-lived, considering the length of the film.
On The Fence
Samantha Livens Things Up, But In A Cheap Way
Samantha has a personality and doesn’t seem like a person in dire need of coffee to start their day, but I would be remiss to say her appeal is limited. She is promiscuous, gets nude, and has sex scenes in the film, and becomes that image which initially drew us into the movie, of the flayed face with an eye in the middle.
But despite the small shots of adrenaline she creates, she cannot overtake the boys and story of this film. As she eventually loses her ability to be the attractive girl who is curious and sleeping around, the film becomes what it was before she showed up—likely one of the dullest sci-fi dramas you’ve ever seen.

Summary
While the concept is interesting, and imagery to a point, unfortunately, because of how dry this film is, it becomes a challenge to sit through and to make matters worse, the one thing which may hold your attention is a bubbly, attractive girl either being nude, having sex, or flirting.
