Enjoyed seeing the story unravel, understanding the history behind the situation, seeing the various characters develop and mature. I think this is OK for younger viewers too, no nudity or mature themes. Watching it gave me some thoughts on my life and how I often found it difficult to move on from the past.
There's no dynamic action and the story doesn't explode on you, but if you enjoy a slower and more mellow drama with a heartwarming ending, this is one you might enjoy.

Despite this gloomy start, this was such a positive drama. There are no bad people here; only lost ones. There are no completely pure/good/wise people here; only real ones.
This is a slice of life drama, told in a very laid back, kinda slow way (being only 7 episodes this is actually not slow at all; just that the story deals with people inner struggles without any protagonist or anything so at times you might feel nothing is happening).
Acting was good. I was especially impressed with Mrs. Naka Riisa. Up to now I tought her as an average actor. Here she outshone herself. I felt her characters struggle every step of the way.
If you like dramas like saigo kara nibanme no koi, osozaki no himawari or oishii gohan then I think you will like this one too. Please note that story here is nothing like those I mentioned; just the feeling.
Definitely recommended.

you put as a "background noise" just to cry, smile or to meditate with the characters about their lives. Dialogues and scenes were very beautiful and inspiring. I like how they portrayed the "dead" people and insight on them. If you want some relaxing and motivating drama about the life of ordinary and struggling people, give it a try.
PS: Rewatch Value is low because I am not the type of person who rewatches films/dramas. Also, there was not much music to rate. And I tend to rate things quite strictly, so some people might give a better rating.
