i hope my review will make others think differently about reconsider watching this drama. i think this drama is worth watching. Before i started the drama, i read some of the reviews was bad but i think i will give it a try, and i was glad that i did watch it.

I enjoyed the story of this drama and the writing script as well. The acting was ok, i love Maki's character the most and she did great here in my opinion, however, i got annoy by Yamada's character, i don't see a point to have this character in the drama at all. I think the script could be better because i have seen a drama about pilot before i think it was better than this one, however this one still a decent one to watch. There are some annoying part in the drama but still the acting of Maki help a lot and Kikuda' s character also help as well.

Even though, people want to see some romance in this drama but i don't think this inspiring kind of drama need the romance side within, if they are trying to push it in i think, it will lose it charm so this is reasonable to ditch some romance scene in this drama.

The music was great, i love the ending theme, it suits the drama.

The rewatch rate is low because this drama is one of those inspiring drama, you get those feeling right after you finish the drama, so you might need a break for a while to rewatch this kind of drama once again the get the same feeling. However, i think for a while it could possibly be inspiring once again for those who still cannot find a goal in your life yet, this drama could give you a way to find it and fight for it otherwise your life is such a waste.

watching this drama was enjoyable i won't lie but at the same time it was annoying too.
the plot of the drama is basically about 5 people becoming pilots and one of them becoming something else. generally speaking it is a rather inspiring drama for those who want to be pilots and it gives quite good info on how things work for pilots which is a nice addition to whatever knowledge you have accumulated so far from other airport j-dramas. the plot wasn't that new though [i exclude that it's about pilots i dun think i have watched a jdrama about pilots before] and the stuff happening quite typical and usual and normal. the good thing is that the script they had to work with was normal and took into consideration the general human behavior. which not all dramas do.

acting wise , with the exceptions of saito takumi and his teacher , the rest of the acting was mediocre. not really believeable and even though i love maki as a person, as an actress she really doesn't have what it takes. she lacks expressions and i could go in detail but this is a review on the drama not maki's acting. aibu saki was better though as for the rest of the actors i would say they did okay, better than maki for sure. i wasn't thrilled by the acting in this.

the music of the drama was not really that annoying and it added to it. i liked it a lot actually though i don't miss it now that i won't listen to it anymore like i miss the music by other dramas.

i dun think it's worth rewatching this drama again because most likely the ending with unsatisfy most of you , though i didn't care much about the romance in this drama, most people probably did and i doubt they would want to rewatch.
overall the drama was okay nothing special though. it is a nice break from a series of serious dramas though. if you are like me and watch a lot of serious dramas in a row,with mysteries and deaths, then adding this in the middle would be a nce break.

It's a simple slice-of-life about pilot training, introducing diverse characters and creating relationships between them. But nothing goes to the extreme. The conflicts stay within the normal limit and nothing crazy or dramatic happens. I might have preferred a little bit more romance, but my dream job as a kid was to be a pilot so of course I really liked it!

When I first saw this drama I thought to myself that I didn't want to watch about people becoming pilots and learn all that. I watched the drama "Good Luck" a couple of months ago and that drama is about being a pilot as well which I enjoyed that drama. I saw that Horikita Maki was in this drama and she is one of my favorite actors so I had to watch it.
I say the drama focuses more on Haru than the rest of the other memebrs who are all training to become a pilot. I really like the idea of there being a team of people who want to become a pilot and having to work together through the training even though at the end they wouldn't be a team anymore. As I was watching I was really cheering on for all of them to pass each tests to becoming a pilot. I'm really glad that Haru didn't end up with Konosuke even though there were hints at them being together in the drama. This drama certainly didn't need romance in it.

My favorite character has to be Haru. She is the less skillful at becoming a pilot but she still is determined to become one even with the help of her teammates. My favorite parts are where the guys are helping Haru out before her final tests. I have a problem with all of the other characters. First is Chisato, it really surprised me that she failed halfway and had to leave. I totally thought they all 6 of them would become pilots together but Chisato was the one who failed. After she fails the test, she doesn't make much of a impact anymore. All she does after this is well have a love interest in Konosuke and is more of a cheerleader now. For the other 4 guys apart of the team Yamada, Moroboshi, Kotori, and Kishii they didn't stand out as much. Kotori kinda gets a episode that focuses about him but after that all 4 of them get little to none development. I really wished they would of gotten each a episode that focuses on one of them each.

The ending song in the drama was definitely not my favorite. The song was bad as it didn't make much of an impact to the drama.

Overall I thought it was a good drama. Its definitely a inspirational drama.
