My main motivation for watching this drama was Narimiya Hiroki. I wanted to see his acting as a father in this drama. He portrayed the character and the feelings of the character very well in my opinion. The character Takumi is an awkward character who has many insecurities and isn't able to express himself well. I think Narimiya Hiroki was right on the dot in portrayal of the Takumi. I also liked the younger version of Takumi. He did a great job too. I like the fact that this story was told from Mio's point of view. I was also impressed by the little boy who plays Yuji. His acting was really good. Although at first the story moves slowly but I ended up liking the pace since the story was good the way it was told. I really liked the deep bond the the Aio family have. Despite the flaws each character have, they each accept each other for who they are. There are misunderstandings but they always manage to be truthful to each other in the end. I really liked that part of the story. That's what a real family should be like in my opinion. This drama showed the struggles each character had to face and how they overcame all of them by being there for each other. This is simply such a sad yet very touching and beautiful story of a family. The theme song for this drama Kizuna by Orange Range is really nice as well. While I was watching this drama, it kept playing in my head. You don't necessary have to be a Narimiya Hiroki fan to enjoy this drama. This drama has a lot of good points. It is really worth watching. If it will motivate you, Miura Haruma also has a cameo/small part in this show. Overall, this drama is really worth watching.
