The chase at the beginning of the episode with the leads fighting was so much fun XD

Yes, it was.

I see. I have mostly switched to watching Japanese dramas in the recent years so I will mostly recommend Japanese dramas from this genre. For me Japan is best when it comes to this genre compared to its other Asian counterparts.

I would say give 1-2 episodes a try. If you don't like it, it's fine. To each his own :)

Miyamura has the cutest smile ever. Makes me melt each time <3

BTW what do you think about the memory card that fell out from Azuma's wallet? Because I remember a similar card falling outside the restaurant that Riku & Azuma left. Were there 2 cards or did the show make an error?

You should totally check out Nijiro Karute & Uchi No Musume Wa Kareshi Ga Dekinai. There were the most wholesome, fun & heartwarming shows this season & just across the countless J dramas in general :)

I'm literally watching all the J dramas this season so you can see my watchlist lol they're all fantastic.

Yes I would love to see them together! Unlike other J actors, I've hardly seen Ayase repeat pairings barring 1 or 2 dramas so I doubt that we'll see them together again. I am a huge Takahashi Issei fan so I pretty much watch everything he's in. Looking forward to their next projects.

FINGERS CROSSED!! That ending gave me anxiety.

Haha exactly! Damnnn I have so many things to do but I keep thinking about what happened in E9. Seriously did not expect the show to make me feel such strong emotions & even have me cry. Add to that, all my fav J dramas are ending this week :(

DAMN THAT IS ONE HELL OF A POWERFUL VOICE!!! Blown away.

SAY WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!

Yayy! Thank you for your hard work, as always!

I think the earliest would be Sunday. Somewhere between Sunday - Wedneday :)

I google translated the lyrics & it perfectly matches this drama & Aoi/Sora's relationship. I love it when a show pays attention to little details like these :)

I am looking forward to see where the show goes from here.

The whole angle around her gift has been unclear to me. I don't know if its just that I didn't understand it or that the show failed to make it clear. Like is her gift really something that is existing (supernatural element of some sort) or is it just her perception? For instance, she saw the dirty window & wanted it to be cleaned. That's the way most people put it. But another way of putting it can be the way Mokomi did by saying that the window was crying. Same with flowers, is it about what looks visually appealing to her rather than actually knowing what the flower wants.

And with her brother (the only person in the family) who promised to protect her calling her out for her behaviour etc I wonder if it's just that she has now shut off from the world rather than the objects shutting her out? It's like she's kinda depressed, and so the world appears somewhat colourless/grey to her rather than vibrant.

Do you get what I mean haha

Interesting! Thank you for sharing.
If you don't mind me asking, are you Japanese?

Nope, it is not dark at all. It is a light, slice of life show. The characters are real, and you will relate to them. If you want to watch something with family dynamics, watch this.

Well they haven't revealed what Yamaki said so I'm expecting a twist there. I don't know how I'm going to wait all week for the finale. Its too painful :(

When Hidaka said that both of them didn't need to go to hell together & Mochizuki said she will save him OH MAN THAT WAS HEARTBREAKING AND JUST SO ROMANTIC AT THE SAME TIME :(
I need both of them out of this mess, and for both of them to at least remain friends forever. Show please don't give us a heartbreaking ending.

Did I miss something? Or were there 2 memory cards? The memory card was with Azuma in E9

I cried for Hidaka. He didn't deserve that, but then Azuma didn't either. I don't know I'm just reeling from the emotions this episode made me feel.

E9. This show continues to be a solid 10 for me.
WOW who would have thought that the reveal would be so emotionally stirring? I did not think it would come together that way. My heart broke for both the brothers. I cried for Hidaka on the bridge.. Fate can be cruel sometimes, 2 brothers born to the same mother but with such distinct realities. That hit deep for me.

Also, I never thought that I would ship Hidaka & Mochizuki together but watching them work together & just smiling at each other (FINALLY) made me so happy! And their conversation at the end. No words really on how powerful it was.

THESE PEOPLE ARE CRUEL! HOW COULD THEY END THE EPISODE LIKE THAT? I'm dying to know what will happen. So hyped up for the finale!
