Episode 1 with eng subs in spoiler.

I am glad you find my recommendations helpful.
Enjoyyyyy :)

The site is raredoramas.com

Oh yes, to answer your question
I watched it here

I'm on a quest to watch as many old dramas from the 90s and early 2000s as I can HAHA! I absolutely love them :)
Here's my list if you're interested -
https://kisskh.at/list/389JWaM4

Usually I find them either on raredoramas.com OR raws on nyaa.si and subtitles on d-addicts
and if they're in none of these places
I check Dramacool and if not on dramacool then a little bit of google search.

This is one of those rare movies that feels so real while being so feel-good, fun, and entertaining at the same time. You can't finish it without smiling and feeling satisfied.

I have to add that watching this refreshed so many memories of my youth and what it was like growing up in simpler times. Kids today will never understand the joy and beauty there was in a world without too much technology..

Even after all these years, I watch and listen to the maru maru dance.
So adorable!

To be loved like that.. oh my heart *tearing up*
A beautiful drama full of companionship, positivity and compassion. The love between the siblings, the fierce loyalty and understanding between the leads, and the way everyone became one big family that was there for each other in good and bad warmed my heart. One of those dramas where there is nothing to dislike.. after all, it emphasizes living the one life we have to the fullest. This drama and couple are going into my favourites list.
Highly highly recommended for all :)

Some romantic Japanese dramas and movies I'd recommend with the illness theme -

Summer Snow
Unmet
Beautiful Life
Kimi Ga Kokoro Wo Kuretakara
Nijiiro Karute (this one is more platonic love though)
Kimi no Te ga Sasayaite Iru
Aishiteiru to Ittekure
Pure
I Litre of Tears
Orange Days
Fight Song
Perfect World (drama)
Heavenly Forest
Midnight Sun
I Just Wanna Hug You
Girl in the Sunny Place
The Last 10 Years
Analog
Even if this love disappears from the world tonight

Couldn't agree more. This was pretty mediocre. Far better Japanese movies and dramas on the illness romance theme.

So rare to have a J-drama trending!
*happy tears*

I completely agree! It's such a beautiful and heartwarming drama. That rating doesn't make sense to me at all. I adored all the characters, and their love for each other.
BTW you should consider removing your comment from spoiler so that more people can see it and be encouraged to watch it :)

English subs in spoiler.

Episode 1:

(The first 5 mins of footage is not in this video)

Episodes 2-4, and Episodes 7 - 11:

If you understand basic Japanese, you will be able to understand most of Episodes 6-7.

All the episodes with Chinese sub:

Unfortunately for Suna no Utsuwa, even the HD torrents no longer exist.
So the only option is dramacool.
I'd say ignore the quality, and give it a watch. It's an absolute masterpiece.

If you want to watch older dramas in higher quality, you can check either nyaa.si for raw torrents and d-addicts for subs.
Another site would be raredoramas.com

I updated my list!

Not sure if it's still of interest to you, but I updated my list :)
Also I've been watching tons of older dramas and movies lately so I'll be adding a lot more!

OMGGGG
I LOVE YOU
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH.
