    This is actually my first time writing a review, but I really want this drama to be noticed more!

    I understand that this might not be to everyone's taste, so if you're looking for a Rom-Com or something light I suggest you watch something else.
    On the other hand, even if it is titled as tragedy it's not THAT tragic in my opinion. Okay, maybe a little tragic, too, but not everyone-dies-in-the-end-tragic.

    This show surprised me from the start, taking a direction I didn't expect, really making me wonder where we were going.
    After watching the last episode I can say that the whole story was very well thought-out and in the end everything made sense.
    It did a very good job at surprising once more

    I know it's a bit early to write a review since so far there's only been 6 episodes but I couldn't resist since its so good :)

    There are a few slow bits here and there but everything else makes up for it ! Very good cast, you really sympathize with both Mako and Satsuki... Takei Emi does an outstanding job portraying them. I really like the intensity Kiritani Kenta brings to his character to.

    The music is also really good, it enlightens the melancholy atmosphere throughout the drama ! I'm not that good at reviews but hope this encourages anyone reading to watch this drama :)

    My original review is a lot longer than what MDL will allow me to post, so I'll make this as short and simple with definite reason as possible.

    A lot of people have been saying that it is a dorama that:
    - Has been one of the best in a long time
    or
    - Has been the best dorama of the season (AKA Spring 2012).

    I thoroughly disagree and will say why.

    The dorama began with the potential to be really amazing and could've become a total 'blow your mind with tricks' dorama, but it didn't. It fell to a mediocre standard that was ultimately predictable, which a lot of people have said "O the ending it totally not predictable!". Yeah it might not be 100%
