Why do people usually choose K-dramas over J-dramas? Abandoned as a child by his mother, Hasumi Sachiyo, Fujishima Haru is a mentally challenged man that has grown up and worked at the Sakurai Bakery as a baker. Working with him at the bakery is the owner Sakurai Kyoko and Tashiro Miki, a girl who is also mentally challenged and is like a sister to Haru. At night, after the bakery is closed, Haru and Miki attend a night class with other mentally challenged adults. Their teacher at the class is Toya Erina who not only is their teacher but also their friend. One day, Erina is approached by her old friend Kobayashi Rumiko about a candidate in the research she is conducting with professor Tatabe Shinichiro and Tokunaga Atsushi that could possibly increase the intelligence of the mentally challenged. Reluctant at first, Erina changes her mind when she sees the resolve in Haru to become smarter so that his mother will come back for him. With the success of the surgery, Haru becomes more and more intelligent. However, with his newfound mental abilities comes problems. Haru now must face the challenges his new self-awareness presents such as the people around him and his own emotions. ~~ Adapted from the novel "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes.

Qu'est-ce que l'intelligence ?
Je me demandais bien ce que donnerait ce roman à la sauce drama. En fait, je l'ai lu il y a déjà quelques années et n'avais pas du tout accroché à cause de l'écriture à la première personne.A la lecture de ce que je disais il y a deux ans et demi, le drama, tout en respectant tout à fait l'histoire de Charlie (Sakuto ici) a rajouté des éléments dramaesque (la riche héritière malade, par exemple, et Sakuto est très empathique, lui.) mais c'est vraiment secondaire et la fin est vraiment poignante, quoique peut-être moins désespérée que celle du roman, dans l'esprit, mais non dans les faits.
Et Yamapi ? Eh bien, comme toujours, il fait le job, et ne s'en tire vraiment pas mal dans un rôle quand même trèèèès casse-gueule ! Il est touchant en sakuto 1 puis impressionnant en sakuto 2 puis de nouveau touchant et dans sakuto 3... Mais quand même, C'est une histoire où il m'a encore une fois été difficile d'adhérer, même si l'idée de base mène à des réflexions très intéressantes sur la différence, et surtout sur le goût immodéré des hommes à jouer les apprentis-sorciers.
Mais je n'aurais pas voulu ne pas l'avoir vu !
