I was so excited to watch this drama and the plot seemed great. I also like really Iwata as an actor ( so I was really looking forward to this) and this drama was at the top of my list of dramas I wanted to watch . It was so disappointing. The actors are great and I'm not blaming them at all. I've watched them in other Japanese dramas so this is not their fault. It is the way the story flowed, was told, was filmed. I don't know what the director was trying to accomplish here but I hated it. Even the dialogue felt contrived or badly presented so I'm blaming this on the scriptwriter as well. On the bright side, the cinematography was ok. I want to reiterate again that the actors are amazing. I've seen their works in other projects, everything else just fell off short. So annoyed. There's nothing like really looking forward to see something and you end up disappointed smh .
