This drama is simply great :)

Aiba Masaki indeed do a great job as Masamune-kun. He fully showed the anxiousness and uncertainty that Masamune-kun was feeling about the changes in his life. Masamune-kun did his very best in his own way to show his daughter her value to him, realizing along the way how the little girl changed his life for the better. He loved Yuuko-san, tho the way she left was kind of a cliche, I still think that it's a nice way of using those predictable conflicts.

Ishii Momoka-chan was just so good in this :') Every time she cries, I would feel tears in my eyes. She portrayed her role magnificently, showing the viewers how mature and independent Koharu-chan is at such a young age, even after the loss of her mother and a faithful meeting with the father she only knew from stories. She would do her best to help Masamune-kun take care of her.

Other characters really helped build up this great drama and helped the two connect, like father and daughter. The music was great, as well.

It's definitely worth to re-watch this drama. It's warm feeling and sweetness will bring you guys smiles :)

To start off,a really sweet, slightly tear jerking story.
Aiba was really good in his role. I think he really portrayed the uncertainty mixed feelings of Masamune. Acting on Momoko (Koharu) was also great for a child actor. She wasn't Ashida Mana, but I think she performed really well with this role (really cute ^^) . Their joint acting was adorable and you could easily sympathies with them. The rest of the cast was also great.
I am a big ARASHI fan so you might think I'm bias when I say that the music was wonderful. But it honestly was. The slow but uplifting music went really well with the whole theme and mood of the drama.
On a negative note though, I though the relationship ship between Masamune and Koharu was a bit too distant at first and suddenly very close at the end. but that's about the only complaint I've got.
So, if you are tired after too many closed door mysteries or high speed car chases or hot actors/actresses pulling impossible stunts with guns and bullets, this will be a nice way to come back to the earth. It's a really sweet and gentle story that I think everyone can enjoy.

I LOVED THIS DRAMA SO MUCH!<3 <3 Both Aiba-kun (Masamune-kun) and Ishii-chan (Koharu-chan) were amazing. Its a touching, sweet, beautiful story about the bonds between parent and child, there's no romance in it, but it still made me cry. Everytime koharu-chan cried I cried :'<. I really enjoyed it and I will definitely recommend to all my friends. :)

The more I watched this drama, then more scared I became for Koharu and Masamune; his mom seemed like she would never understand, I thought Koharu's nursery school sensei was a bit of a bully, Masamune's boss was a jerk and his cousin was a flake. But, the more I watched this series, the more I also realized how much I enjoyed watching everyone grow along together. I wont say I was "curious" to know more about one person or why something happened or even a specific reason, but it was like watching puzzle pieces fit together to bring back Masamune and Koharu's smiles. Plus, Aiba Masaki-kun's and Ishii Momoka's smiles are absolutely adorable!

This is a truly heartwarming and cute story that'll get u bulbing! It's nice to see a story that involves a father and daughter relationship and the male perspecive in parenting. Aiba Masaki acts really well in this drama, and it's strange to see a serious side to him! keep an eye out for other Arashi members! Ishii Momoka is a cute and talented little actress and she and Aiba have a great combi going!

I never read a synopsis before I watch a drama I watching just for the actor/idol, because then I second guess watching it like I did with Flowers for Algernon. (that was a big mistake because it rocks).  So that being said I had no idea what type of drama I was getting into with this and after seeing Aiba in Kizoku Tantei I was hesitant to dive into another of his dramas.

This drama was no disappointment at all, it is a believable slice of life drama of single father-hood in Japan.  The child actress was very good and did her part excellently.  There is an unconventional love story here which I will not spoil but I promise you it is there.  The actors did their part of making you believe they are father and daughter, and I totally agree that this drama is totally under rated.  It should be on more peoples favorites list.  And to top it off Episode 10 has a guest cameo of another Arashi member.  

Now off to watch another drama.....

Определиться - понравилось или нет - как то сложновато. Скорее склоняюсь к тому, что дорама оставила равнодушной, хотя у нее были все шансы выжать слезу и сердцебиение. А ведь история отца-одиночки 24 лет прямо создана, чтобы все вышеназванное было в наличии. Но в целом, все было мило, спокойно и слегка навязчиво в области нравоучений и правильности поведения.
А еще девочка просто очарование, и я познакомилась уже с 4 членом "Арашей" в кино - Aiba Masaki , который тоже умеет играть.
