Fansubber is still subbing :)She'll probably upload it in a few days.
There are tons of J dramas where the leads get together a lot earlier.. but yeah this was disappointing for a romance drama. Lately, the non-romance dramas seem to be having the best romance..

Well only in dramaland, you can bail on a concert midway, and still receive praises because oh well, LOVE! HAHAHA
I hated the ending to be honest. He could have gotten with her in E10. The writer just wanted to stall time, and have the perfect ending for the couple in E11. I couldn't be bothered when they got together lol
This was the most disappointing drama for me this season, especially when I compare to some of the stellar dramas that are airing.
E10. "I am sure there are some things that cannot be lost."I have been holding back tears for the past few episodes…
Miyabi is such a soft, gentle and kind person who does her best each day despite the darkness she lives in, and to see a visual representation of that with the way the screen turned black and she was left there standing all alone; that visual just broke me. Fantastic direction there.
Also this episode was all about love. The way Miyabi chooses not to have hope for surgery because she does not want to break Sanpei contrasted with Sanpei practicing every single day and loosing hope not being able to do the procedure in 2 mins - the heart truly does remember. This isn't a romance drama, but their love for each other is better than many of the romance dramas I've seen. The beauty of their relationship lies in the connection, the understanding and the little things they don't say but do for each other.
The way they used the ending song at the end, especially when she was fainting - another great touch by the team. Kudos!
E10. "I am sure there are some things that cannot be lost." I have been holding back tears for the past few episodes but E10 did it for me and I cried bitterly. This show is going to live in my heart . Miyabi and Sanpei are the most beautiful characters I've seen in a while. At the cost of sounding like a broken record, I am just gonna say that this is what a stellar drama looks like - the direction, the acting, the writing and the OST are PERFECT.
I beg to differ. The script didn't do Chiba Yudai dirty because that is the role he picked. This isn't a story…
WORD. I adore the way he looks at her. You can tell how much he loves her and how much he's probably holding himself back. It's like she touched his soul you know.. that kind of love.
This is not a film for the faint-hearted. It portrays humanity in the form of love and support amongst the patients in the psychiatric hospital, but it also portrays evil, darkness and greed in the way the weak are exploited. The entire cast was excellent, especially our 4 main characters. All in all, a very sensitive film about mental health with an equally disturbing reality about institutionalization and the way people are shunned by the very society that damaged and broke them. Please watch with caution, and read the tags to avoid triggers.
Well directed and well acted drama , I love the calm nature of miyabi and the interactions however there are two…
I beg to differ.
The script didn't do Chiba Yudai dirty because that is the role he picked. This isn't a story about him and he does get a lot of screen space for a supporting character. I don't think his character is underplayed. Maybe you should check out more of his dramas, specifically the ones he is a male lead in. He's been doing quite a number of lead roles in the past few years.
RE: the ML - I don't think he is emotionless at all. I find his acting very understated and natural. He sticks to a routine like many people do. That is his character sketch. And it makes sense given his job scope. He said he was engaged to Miyabi but we don't know that for a fact. Also, he's doing his very best for her but he doesn't push her. He waits patiently for her trust and consent, and lets her be the one to make the decision. He also has his own job to look out for and despite that, he's been trying his best to question Dr Osako regarding her condition. He did try out with the medicines but he was aware that they may have side effects so he's also being cautious with the treatment because it's a human's brain and life we're talking about here.
My only question after completing this drama: where was the love?This drama had such a classic feel, a beautiful…
When they got together at the end, I couldn't be bothered LOL though I'm glad she questioned why he keeps playing with her feelings. I don't understand why he even rejected her in E10; it looked like the writer just wanted to stall time and make that happily ever after scene in E11 which is such a freaking COP OUT.
Such a contrast to Episode 7 when he found her, piggybacked her and they talked about their future which gave me so many feels. Even their breakup in E8 was beautifully done.
SIGH... their romance was such a dud. What a disservice to that OST which speaks of a star-crossed, eternal love. The whole point of the accident should have been to make them fall in love all over again (without the high school memories), but till the end, they seemed to be stuck in the past.
My only question after completing this drama: where was the love? This drama had such a classic feel, a beautiful OST / score and likeable characters, but it failed to deliver. Maybe I am being overtly critical because it wasn't a bad drama per se but the writing just didn't hit the spot when it came to the romance. Instead of focusing on having the leads build their relationship and understanding each other better, this drama focused on everything else. I was invested for most of it hoping we'd finally get to the leads' story and romance because some of the tidbits we had from Episodes 5 to 8 were lovely, but I lost interest in the romance by the end of E10, and stayed for the friendship. I've also seen better acting from both leads in other dramas.
There's another drama that aired this year with 2 leads who loved each other since high school (though different concept/theme) that did a beautiful job in making you feel the love the leads had for each other; I recommend that instead. It's called 'Kimi Ga Kokoro Wo Kuretekara'. Another recommendation for a well-rounded romance and character story from this year would be 'Unmet'.
Iwai Shunji may not make the best films, but he's a master of creating poetry in motion with his frames. What a visually stunning and bittersweet film about friendship, love and teenage angst.
P.S I've always wondered why Suzuki Anne never made it big. She has been consistently good in all the films and dramas I've seen her in.

I dropped the 2020 version but this one is lovely :)
This drama has been quite the surprise package!
I wish I could find more of his lakorns from the 90s.
I love that this drama is serving both the romance and comedy equally.
