Tokyo Dokushin Danshi (2019)

This is one of the most heart-wrenching, relatable shows I have seen in a long time! Although I can see, and sort of agree, with how and why a few commenters have said they've dropped this show, however, on the other hand, with such an amazing cast and a very thoughtful, tangible, genuine story of life and friendships and reality, I just don't see how they could drop it!

If you've seen the American show "Friends", then the feeling/air of this show is something similar, though I wouldn't say it's an exact copy because it definitely has its own fantastic qualities! The synopsis, and even title of the show itself, suggests that it is a show about men and how they move throughout their life/lives while being single. But do not let that throw you, and do not let this show fool you! Sure there are a few slow moments, but if you pay attention to detail (mostly words and how the actor himself/herself portrays their character) during those slow moments, you'll realize that everything that person says and does is pretty beneficial to the show as a whole.

This show is not just a story about the three main characters friendships within their "lair" or within their group; it also shows a lot of how society manipulates and recreates us as human beings, not to mention our relationships within our families, romantic relationships, and within our jobs. This show brings to life the actual act of human life; real, raw, and honest!
