Akina's best role; tragic, depressing, yet gripping

What happens when there is no forgiveness? This show follows the exploits of Kiyoka (Akina Nakamori) who blames a housewife for the death of her husband as well as subsequent miscarriage. However, the woman had done nothing wrong.

The show does a great job of depressing the hell out of you, as supported by a strong cast, the strongest of which being lead Akina Nakamori, who despite being the villain, practically owns the the entire drama.

The viewer is somewhat represented through Shinobu, the flower salesman, who tries to find the good in her every step of the way. At least for me, I kept thinking (like him) that maybe, perhaps she would be able to find a way to move on.

All in all, if you can manage to procure the show it is worth a watch as long as you can stomach tragedy, and is an absolute must see for anyone who is a fan of either of the female leads.
