Unfortunately most Japanese dramas on MDL get rating bombed.

There's now subs for this! I've personally commissioned Skeweds Translations to sub this drama.
You can find the first episode here: https://tl-skeweds.blogspot.com/2025/12/daisho-2016-jdrama-ep1.html

Due to money, future episodes likely won't be commissioned for at least a few weeks or more. Hopefully many can now enjoy this unsubbed drama.

All credit to the amazing subbers!

The combi van guy in episode 3 is totally the best side character ever. Such a vibe

Good so far but that girl in the second episode telling everyone not to go to the infirmary is really pissing me off. I guess that's the point of the character but arghh. The kids are like 11. It's crazy to think and talk like that at that age.

Also Shinoya is really annoying

I'm quite surprised by other people's view on this drama.

I really liked it, which is a surprise for me. I'm not big on love story stuff (despite watching a lot of it). I liked the serious acting with the odd comedy bit.

My big issue with many of these types of dramas is usually how quirky and not-serious they are. I found this one tackled the topic quite well. And while keeping in a little bit of usually removed imagery and violence which I felt helped tell the story.

I do think that Torino came back a few more times than he should have had. But overall a great show!

Most Japanese full series are tagged as a miniseries for some reason. It's so dumb.

Thank you so much Furritsu!

Those looking for subs, please refrain from using websites that steal subs such as kissasian or dramacool. You can find the subs for this show here: https://twitter.com/Luwuang
Support the people that spend the time to sub these :)

So excited, looks real good.

Well yes, it was a symbol for that, the flag wasn't created for that purpose originally and existed long before then. It is also heavily used as a rebellion flag in Japan. So I don't see the issue of it being used in this way.

what the heck you talking about lol

If I had my way those twins would get a fist to the face for being the shitty nosey way they are, geez.

Like it's obviously a happy couple, so can't you two just fuck off lol.

Of course, same here.

Technically yes, but many prefectures have raised ages to 18.

So, from watching the first episode, I can tell that these "C5" have no guts at all compared to the old "F4" lol. But I'll keep watching I guess.

I fuckin hate yukiko in this so much lol. There's toxicity and then there is this, way to overboard jesus.

Finally looking forward to a new drift movie!

I loved this show a lot. Much better then some of the recent Psychological themed stuff that's been coming out. Don't know the problem everyone else had lol.

Love the show but holy fuck did they have to make the Mother so toxic. FFS

I'm gonna say it. FUCK the president. Holy shit he stayed in the show for way to long. He's such a hatable character my god.
