Saigo Ryusuke, who was born and raised in a coastal town in Tohoku, becomes the manager of the branch office of a local credit union. He builds a modest house on a small hill overlooking the sea and lives happily with his beautiful wife Asako, mother Nami and daughter Chiaki who works at the city hall. On one of Ryusuke’s days off work, the Saigos head to the house of Chiaki’s boyfriend Hamaguchi Shuichi for the first meeting between both sets of parents. The Hamaguchis have been fishermen for generations. There is Shuichi’s taciturn father Katsumi, mother Masayo, grandfather Kichiya, grandmother Iku and younger brother Mitsuhiko. Chiaki, who dreams of being active in national politics someday in the future, has given this condition in her marriage to Shuichi. Ryusuke and his wife have mixed feelings about their daughter’s marriage to a fisherman’s family, but it is also the same with the Hamaguchis. However, Chiaki and Shuichi are firm in their decision to marry and both families consent to their children’s marriage. At a dinner party, Ryusuke and Katsumi both realize that they are junior high school classmates. However, five days later on 11 March 2011, an earthquake and tsunami strikes eastern Japan and the destinies of the two families are drastically changed. The tsunami claims the lives of Masayo, Iku and Shuichi. The Hamaguchis also lose both house and boat. On the other hand, the Saigos escape harm because their house is on high ground. Chiaki is swamped with work to the extent that she has no interlude to feel sad over the loss of her fiance. Wanting to be of help to the Hamaguchis, Ryusuke and Asako make an offer to them to stay in their house. However, on the night of the visit of Katsumi, Kichiya and Mitsuhiko to the Saigos, havoc ensues. Edit Translation

Must Watch

After coming back from a walk while having supper, I encountered the title 2-hour drama and saw it.
A work depicting the collapse and rebirth of a family against the backdrop of the Great East Japan Earthquake on March, 2011

Two families, the Saigo family and the Hamaguchi family, who live in a seaside town in Tohoku.The only daughter of the Saigo family and the eldest son of the Hamaguchi family will get married, and the
two families will meet for the first time. However, five days later, the Great East Japan Earthquake struck. An earthquake and a tsunami hit the city
, changing the fate of two mediocre families ... Two families "on the verge of relatives"
who would have been tied together and become relatives without the Great Earthquake. However, after the disaster, the grandmother, mother, eldest son and a family of three
The Hamaguchi family, who lost their property and home, and the Saigo family, whose family and home were all safe without any damage.

At that time, complicated feelings are born again in both families ...

Well it's a super luxurious cast. Famous actors such as
Kiichi Nakai, Kanako Higuchi, Toshiro Yanagiba, Kazuko Yoshiyuki, Isao Hashizume, Mitsuko Baisho, and
Kayoko Kishimoto are all on the same page. Nakai and Higuchi
show off their breathtaking exchanges in Tohoku dialect! Tasteful acting.
Supported by veterans, Meisa Kuroki and Ryunosuke Kamiki also who can stand their ground among the more experienced actors.

Depicting emotional transitions from a delicate perspective, sometimes gentle, sometimes violent, and
sometimes humorous. It was not just a drama that encouraged
people, but a home drama that was close to the hearts of the people affected by the disaster and delivered the light of hope .

In the last scene, tears came out and I couldn't stop.
A wonderful family drama, displaying the delicate family relations.

It's something that doesn't make sense, such as people's memories ..

After all, I watched it till the end. The theme was the earthquake disaster, and there were some serious scenes, so I was a little worried that it would be difficult to watch, but it was rather like a home drama and it was easy to get in. It's not heavy, but it's solid now ...
It's still difficult to see the drama dealing with the earthquake. However, I think it's important to remember that in any way. It's something that doesn't make sense, such as people's memories ...
Don't forget Don't forget, but honestly, I think there are people who don't want to remember.
