Wakamono Tachi Episode 4

Siblings relationship is all about coming together after all the arguments and the fights!!

I'm writing this review a bit late since episode 5 has already been subbed. I still wanted to write about it. As usual, this character driven dorama follows through with the siblings, this time shifting a bit towards Haru. We also find you more about Satoru and the incentive to his crime.

This episode explores Haru's life decision, passion, and his relationship with Asa-nii as a father figure in his life. Their relationship might be simple on paper but their scenes were so dramatic and the actors carry the feeling so perfectly that your emotions goes swinging with theirs. That scene at the end when Asahi was standing in the back, so not to be seen, all singing and excited at his brother's achievement was priceless.

As for Satoru, we find out more about his past. I gotta say, I wished that his animosity towards Shinjo was for darker reasons. They keep painting shinjo as this angel but I still think he's a jerk. I was agreeing with everything Satoru said to Hikari concerning that douchbag (+ seeing those 2 argue is adorable). The results though was still in line with Satoru's character, something we saw mostly in the previous episode. When things become hard to deal with, or beyond his control, its easier for him to blame others and shift all his anger to them.

Next episode we'll be focusing again on Asa-nii & I can't wait to watch it!

Oh yea Hirosue Ryoko guess staring was a fabulous surprise here ;)
