I was so invested in this show, and I have too many things to say but when I started to write the review, I felt lost, no words can describe how I felt about this!! So I'll just blabber whatever on my mind~~
It's not a simple infidelity drama, I usually don't like the Japanese opinion about cheating and how it is ok for men/husbands to cheat but not women, and that they should be beheaded if they even think about it, but men?? Nah just forgive him, he was weak for a moment and everybody makes mistakes, just forget it for the sake of saving the household from destruction!!
BULL-FREAKIN-SHIT!!!! Cheating is cheating, man or woman if you cheat, you should be ashamed, and forgiving you or not is up to the other person, not anyone!!
Aggravatingly !! This sh!t was said in this drama by one of the characters, and who was it? The cheating husband!!
şaşırdık mı? Tabi ki şaşırmadım...
And she wasn't even cheating at that point!! The husband was so obsessed with belittling his wife and breaking her spirits, even his OWN CHİLD told his mum to do whatever she wants, like just break up and leave dad don't think about me!! That's how bad the husband was ... EVEN YOUR CHİLD TURNED HİS BACK ON YOU!! he wanted to save his mother ~
So when we play an Uno reverse card, and she is the one who emotionally cheated, she didn't even act upon it! She didn't leave because of Yuta YET!! she was still in that loop of forgetting everything and act like nothing happened and keep living with this terrible husband
at this point I just wanted Shinobo to leave her husband, even if she doesn't end up with Chiaki, just leave that piece of sh!t for good, you deserve better.
She was one of the most sensible characters, at least for the first half, I felt sorry for her after she took Mihiro in, she was like a mother who lost her child, and then found it in her!! I don't know what exactly led to this point in her relationship with Yuta but I believe he went to search for his happiness and live his life the way he wanted after he asked his mother to do the same, and I still don't understand why she decided to stay even after Yuta left?? Did she just thought that her husband will magically change into a good person?? Oh god!
Even after the divorce, he was troubling her after he got scammed by this bar owner, I have never been that satisfied about someone being scammed !! But that damned guy still dare to go ask for alimony!! How rude can you be!? No dignity at all!! I feel sorry she wasted 20 years of her life on that guy!!!
And Chiaki, my dear boy, as messed up as he was, he was attracting all the stray broken souls like him, with no way of helping them or himself, I loved how Shinobo was like a surrogate mother in a form of a lover, he needed an adult because he was a kid!! He didn't even understand how he felt or how he was supposed to live, his mother destroyed every tiny piece of him, and oh don't get me started with this bitch!! She is even worse than the husband!! I have never wanted to kill someone as her!! Like seriously she should be killed somehow because only with her disappearance, Chiaki can breathe!!
I sadly understand how he can't just cut her off, cause I may sounds like a hypocrite, asking Shinobo to leave but not Chiaki, that's why I opted to kill his mother's character, but seriously, it's his mother, sometimes we can't hate our parents even if they treat us terribly, that's the only toxic relationship that can't be escaped easily, however I really wished something or someone would smack some sense to her, trying to sold her child like that for money!! Ugh! terrible woman!!
I loved how Shinobo and Chiaki both cure something in each other, I was mainly focusing on how I wanted each of them to leave the toxic relationship they were stuck in, more than their relationship, but by the end of the show I started to genuinely believe that they really need eachother, it's not about love, it's just their souls that fits!
A new character was introduced in the last few episodes, which was the editor,, this guy is just the better version of the husband, still as arrogant and ignorant!! Why do everyone think that their opinion about other characters life is the ultimate choice!! Like what gives you the right to tell anyone how they should life his/her life!! The audacity!!!
I could understand the terrible behaviour from Mihiro in the beginning, she is as wounded and troubled as Chiaki, I wanted them to explore more of her background story but I'm just glad she had her beautifully perfect end a d moved on with her life, now independent and brave, but I couldn't at all understand the editor's behaviour.
Overall it's not a simple infidelity drama, it has more layers and much more complicated characters, I still stand by my opinion that cheating is a terrible thing and it's better to leave the relationship if you are not happy instead or cheating and ruining everyone's life.
My line of thoughts ends here ... I don't know what I said I just wrote what I felt after watching, this was a hell of a ride, not a simple story at all!!
Highly, extremely and utterly worth it!!
