A beautiful story with a brilliant cast. Must see for all the '90s drama lovers.

He was great in Oyaji. Truly sorry to find out about his passing. He was a very charismatic actor and left a great legacy after him.

One of the best family comedy-dramas I've seen. A true classic.

A light and enjoyable coming-of-age romcom with a supernatural touch. Highly recommended.

A pretty solid character-driven story, I'd say. And although I found the romance storyline somewhat lacking and its development at times forced and overdramatic, in the end it all wraps up quite well. But the drama is not about romance, it's about personal growth and in this aspect it's very good. We follow Miho's evolution throughout the series and see her becoming a stronger person by the end of it. An important element of that journey is also her relationship with her best friend Kyoko and, of course, with her family. There are some really great scenes with them. All in all, it's another good drama from the '90s that you shouldn't miss if you like that time period. [7.5]

Well, luckily, now it's available in HD as well.

A true masterpiece from Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Maybe even his best and he has a lot of great films.

Nope, why would they be? Those are not Asian productions so they have no place here.

Twilight Samurai was much better. Watch it if you like him.

Very cheesy and over the top, but it's just impossible not to be won over by it in the end. 8/10

Not just better, it's in a completely different league. A true classic.

Look for "Morita Doji Best Collection 1993" and you'll find all the songs from the drama, not only the theme one.

I see she's pretty big but I've never heard of her before. Was there some hugely popular drama that made her famous?

You forgot to mention that the story in the film isn't finished. The ending of the film corresponds to the ending of the 9th episode of the series.

Is this a spiritual sequel to Oyaji?

Exactly my thoughts about the ex plotline. Only I didn't jump to the end because I never do it out of respect to the actors and the creators but I remember that those were much inferior episodes. I wouldn't say it ruined the drama completely but it definitely spoiled it to a great extent.

Is this drama completely lost I wonder?

I remember I used to confuse her with Nagasawa Masami until I saw Dragon Zakura and realised they were two different actresses. xD
