Family meeting

Nankyoku Tairiku is one drama I wanted to watch for so long, not for the casting but for the story as I know this is the kind of drama that will just help me feel better and now it's the perfect time.
And only before starting it I realized there were: Shibata Kyohei (one of my favorite character in Soratobu, I'm glad to see him once again) Ashida Mana, Okada Yoshinori, Terajima Susumu so I was so happy and of course Kimura but I already knew he was in here ;)

This is one of the most touching ep I've ever seen, and that's only the first one, I don't know how I'll be able to handle the rest if it's that touching.

First of all this ep is 106 minutes long, that is to say a very long introduction. But an introduction which is necessary to understand how they managed to prepare this expedition, so many people are involved even those who won't go to Antarctica and for this purpose they all worked very hard and thanks Lord they obtained a satisfactory result.
What touched me the most
-were all these children who believe in Kuramochi's dream and were willing to help him fulfilling it, there is this scene when Haruo-Kun gave him a little coin, that was simply beautiful I could not help but cry .
- and of course the dogs, they simply made me cry too ;D

This ep is like a family meeting because so many people decided to join forces to fight for a common cause. Seeing all these people gathering for this cause made me realize that in this world peace does exist .

Seriously this kind of drama is not good for my heart, in one ep I cried like 10 times !

Wow!

Woah, what a first episode! Could've just as well been a movie. Great. ._.

The dogs are definitely the stars of this by the way. They are incredible. I don't like how they're locked into those tiny little cages, though. :(

But seriously, are ALL of those many people in uniforms going with them? I thought they are supposed to be less members of the expedition. Or did they get off?
I guess I'll find out. ;)
