This is fantastic drama like seriously what an engaging first episode. At first glance it is that taboo kind of drama but it is way deeper than that, it is so poetic, characters are flawed but also interesting to see how they will develop. Great cinematography and music, reminds me of Soredemo, Ikite Yuku and old romance dramas like Orange days. Again you will notice a taboo type of relationship at first but they are just conveying a story of two person that has difference mentally, one graduating from a kid and the other barely an adult, so if you have that mindset of an adult you would understand this is just a fiction no need for hate. Don't worry though because based on my experience with Japanese Dramas, I bet they WILL NOT end up together in the end.

I'm digging the cinematography here and also the music, reminds me of old romance dramas.

I'll take words than numbers. Before I watch a certain drama/movie I always check the reviews, I don't pay attention to the rating as I know myself those numbers are full of fangirl/fanboy feelings or from people who voted just by reading the synopsis. To each their own, we all have different taste and by reading some reviews you would know that drama is for you and not just random numbers.

Is it just me or is it hard to tell who is who cause they look similar.

The ending just make sense because it realistic, it was based from the directors life in the first place. The ending is not bad nor sad, I would call it bittersweet. It like when you have a relative that has an incurable disease you were sad at first but later you will realize atleast he/she won't suffer anymore. You would only narrow your chance to experience great films if you have that mindset especially that movies made by makoto shinkai such as Kimi no nawa and 5 Centimeters per second are two of the best anime films ever.

Deym the taiwanese movie is like one of the best romantic comedy I've ever seen. Though I am a japan movie guy first, I really hope this movie will give justice to the original.

They are trying to portray a story, so if it turned out to be a good drama then its a good drama. Keep your opinion to yourselves. To anyone who says they might affect the minds of children, then that's when parenting comes, to tell their child that it is wrong, or stop them from watching shows like this. We are adults here or so I guess most of us are, we should know this is just a fiction and rating should be based on how good the drama is.

I think Misuma killed the father and the daughter(suzu hirose's character) participate in the crime in someway, and I am convinced the reason is because the father is raping her. The scene when she was talking with her mother hinting for that. They also showed images of her smashing her fathers head and wiping the blood off her face, though I am not sure if that really happened or maybe just in the detective's head. Although I am not sure whether he only see her as a replacement for her daughter or as disgusting as it sound, they are in a relationship, I am still convinced that what he did is for her. He judged her, he set her free, that canary bird is just a metaphor of her.

It seems the controversy it stirs is somewhat same with Ossan's Love, which turns out to be a fantastic drama. I don't know but maybe I'll add it to my list, who knows it might be a great drama like ossan's love.

I don't know the whole story but I bet she's not the only one who's guilty here. Tax evasion has become a norm cause of how easy for them to hide their income. I don't even know if its those people around her are to blame cause we know wealthy people have their own accountants.

I don't know if I will be excited because of that cast, Yamazaki Kento is ok, I don't know the rest.

They don't want to spoil the manga. I bet the mangaka didn't want the movie to have a conclusion on who chihaya would end up with.

OPEN ENDING.......though I guess open ending is like a chord and normal ending is just a note. or perhaps they don't want to spoil the manga cause there is still no conclusion in the manga.

I like how they incorporate those two poems at the end, it's stroke of genius. Though I still think the theme in the second movie is stronger than this one which makes the second movie better in my opinion, nonetheless a strong movie to end the trilogy.

So this is Aki in future alternate universe where she didn't grew up shy then move to countryside to catch she urchins then later wants to become an idol, instead she grew up obsessed with robots to an extend she would want them as her husbando. Seriously though, I don't care if she could only act one character as long as she's this adorable.

Episode 4 of dele might be one of the best episode in an episodic type of drama. It's so well done and the plot could also work as a movie. It has elements of suspense and funny moments but also a heartbreaking ending. That tandem by Takayuki and Suda works really well, their acting complements each other, hope they could do more projects in the future.

"they say people die twice, first is when your body dies second time when you're completely forgotten" I really feel sad for him T_T.

I have always been fascinated by method acting, reason why most of my favorite actors are method actors. Very nice article, there are obviously negative effects on the person but if you ask me there are more pros than cons as method actors always end up being terrific actors.

also robert deniro

So haru is the spirit of that park?

what happen btw?

He's also great in pink and gray btw and that movie was just fantastic.
