Otousan to Yobasete (2016)

Veteran Actors Rock!

What's written in synopsis sounds like this is a silly comedy dorama, but it's definitely not.

Obviously this dorama is made to be funny, but the best part of this is that those comedic elements comes in a way that you wouldn't expect. At the same time the family (and some workplace, social) issues and how these can be solved are presented subtly. As you watch along, you'll understand and the manners and behaviors of Hanazawa family members and how their engagement with Daidoji has changed them.

Casting is just perfect fit. The chemistry between Daidoji and Hanazawa is just superb, and only those veteran actors can achieve such thing. Wakui Emi is as elegant as ever, and Renbutsu Misako's acting is also laudable, given that her character lies inbetween two veteran actors.

I would say rewatch value is quite high, mainly because of the comedic elements.

Daidoji-Hanazawa chemistry is the key selling point, but the story is not just about them. Light-hearted and funny, yet not cheesy nor silly. It's worth to give it a go.
