A sad yet very heartwarming drama. Aya is such an inspiration. After watching this drama, I felt like I have or I should not complain about my life. Everyone's life is beautiful, we just have to deal with it in a positive way. Even when Aya was faced with life-threatening disease, she was always positive. It breaks my heart to watch her everyday struggles. And yet I can not ever give up watching it and still got myself hooked up to it because I was rooting for her. And I have watched this drama a lot of times already but still I am crying after finishing it. Even as I am writing this review, I feel like crying remembering every scenes that touched me. I love Aya's family too, specially her parents because they are really strong, and supportive and never really have shown weakness in front of Aya. Each actors did their part really great. I think the role was really meant for them. Erika Sawajiri did a terrific job as the role of Aya. And even the actor who played the role of parents and the siblings really convinces me. This is the first drama also I have watched Nishikido Ryo and I love how his role and his acting here and began really searching for all his other dramas. The music is great too. It really fits each scene and the story. I give this a perfect 10 for everything. Even for the rewatch value, it is a 10 for me because I really loved the way the story was delivered even if its sad, because I will watch this once again if I want to be inspired or at least to make myself realize that I am still having a good life. A bonus: Each episode gives us a very inspiring quotes from Aya's book. As a jdrama fanatic, I really recommend this drama, this is really a must-watch.
