There's a thing that I have to say... While I like Kou Shibasaki I really dislike the way she acts/talks that you can see in these two first episodes (the ones translated until now), with that meek way of talking. I like her more when she is more "fiery".
I watched the episode 2 and I say that it's not only about "mothers" and the women side. It shows how the japanese…
At first you may think, "oh, just another crime drama", because with the judgment it's categorized as a "court drama" but when you sit and watch... it's like what is being judged is not just that case in the court and not that single mother, it's much more.
Finally, a drama that tackles the issues women, be them mothers or not, faces in Japan. All actors acted very…
I watched the episode 2 and I say that it's not only about "mothers" and the women side. It shows how the japanese society today is skewed against having and raising children and prevents a healthy marriage. The men/husbands side is being shown and is adding a lot.
I liked this. It's - as many people already said - similar to Chugakusei Nikki but also not. I think I actually…
"I liked this. It's - as many people already said - similar to Chugakusei Nikki but also not. I think I actually prefer this version. CN is basically the vanilla version, what you'd expect from a Japanese TV drama. Highschool-vanilla-love, barely two kisses in the whole thing...but somehow true love that survives for years. Yeah sure, as if. "
Didn't finished Koi no Tsuki, still didn't watched Chugakusei (because I'm having difficulties getting the first episodes), didn't read your comment past the part quoted and I agree 100%! I have the impression that I know what to expect from Chugakusei, but I surely didn't expected what I'm seeing here in Koi no Tsuki! It's actually a very good story and drama, with real problems, real world problems. Sometimes I thought that I knew some cheap clichés that the script was telegraphing but I was actually wrong and was surprised. And they actually put effort on filming this, it's just beautiful!
There are age gaps and then there's a 40 year age chasm, like this. Yikes.
The original is a josei manga made by a woman, of course it's degenerate... Talking serious now, don't judge too early and without even knowing how it actually is. It may be about much more than just an age gap romance, take After the Rain as example.
LOL I had to laugh. I watched Marumaru Tsuma and wanted to see on what Kou is working this year and than that synopsis. If you watched Tsuma you know what made me laugh.

"subs out"?
What to you mean by this? There's subtitles for this? WHERE?!
But, I'm near the end and I didn't expected "that"!
