An ideal drama for mature content lovers
Let's start with my boring history. I will be honest here. This is the second japanese drama aka dorama I have watched. The last time I watched drama was back in 2013 when I was 10 year old. They were in my country's local language. Of course, they were shitty so I came to hate dramas in general. I came here looking to explore some dorama because I was tired of watching same, typical shitty anime. It's been so long since I've watched a good anime that could move me from the core. I usually watch fantasy genre anime. But I like to watch something serious too. I found this gem while looking for some good mature dorama online. There were not many suggestions and I picked the most appealing by looking at the plot.
It has 12 Episodes, each being 24 minutes, I thought I could watch some episodes first to see if it is watchable. Episode length didn't seem short to me at first, because being an anime fan, you usually get to see 22-25 minute episodes. Then I researched a bit and realised that a dorama usually have 45-50 minutes episodes.
What attracted me the most by reading the very short and unclear Wikipedia article of this dorama, was the fact that Yujiro Noda, the main vocalist of my favourite J-rock band, RADWIMPS, is acting as the main character of this drama series. I loved his songs such as Zenzenzense, Nandemonaiya, Is there anything love can do, etc. Actually, I didn't even know that Mr. Noda was an actor so I was very surprised.
The drama was becoming more and more interesting as I continued watching each episodes. The mystery was slowly being unraveled. Frankly, at first, I was a bit disappointed seeing Yujiro Noda's acting as the main character. It took me while to get used to seeing Noda as Michi and how he was acting. But as I kept watching the series, I realised how good his performance was as the actor of a complex and unsuccessful character such as the MC. The rest of the casts' acting was flawless, simply. I personally liked the editor. I wish I could have a good friend like him.
The music and score in the dorama was not perfect but better than average. I was expecting a better song as the ending theme. Of course, I am not a japanese speaker, so I can't comment on the song much.
Don't take my word, just go for it and experience this yourself.
