1. 1 Litre no Namida

Japanese Drama - 2005, 11 episodes

10

Where do I even begin. This drama made me cry 1 litre of tears... As soon as they hit me with that "based on a true story" at the end I cried even more. Why do this to meeeee... this is literally not fair :((((
2. Soredemo, Ikite Yuku

Japanese Drama - 2011, 11 episodes

9.0

1 word to describe this one... depression. The acting in this drama is really good. The story is mad unfortunate and sad tho. I felt bad for both families involved and very empty inside after every episode.
3. Ikebukuro West Gate Park

Japanese Drama - 2000, 11 episodes

9.0

10/10 drama for me. So nostalgic and the OST is *chefs kiss*.. I need this on DVD immediately ... Favorite comfort drama...
4. Seija no Koushin

Japanese Drama - 1998, 11 episodes

9.0

My fucking heart HURRTTSSSS :((( As I'm writing this I'm crying... like don't let that intro fool you y'all.. I made that horrible mistake LOL. Anyway this drama was heartwarming and like really depressing tbh but it is worth a watch. I will NOT be rewatching because I'll yell at my screen again and cry so no thanks :D
**SPOILER BELOW!!!**

At the end I let out the biggest sigh of my life. Last episode is emotional baggage and Ren and Arisu were fucked over. FUCK THE MANAGER. I don't care if he had a change of heart at the end none of that justifies anything. Also IM SO GLAD, Towa survived. We need to give Rin the credit she deserves tbh. Beautiful eyes ;-;

Sorafune is on repeat in my brain... Such a wholesome drama that is worth many rewatches :))
8. Good Doctor

Japanese Drama - 2018, 10 episodes

8.5

(Pretty sure this was the first jdrama I ever saw. Since I watched this so long ago I cant really write a review rn, so I'll do a little recap watch and write one soon !)
9. Last Friends

Japanese Drama - 2008, 11 episodes

8.5

By the end of this drama all I thought was .... this is a mess ... in a kind of good way tho. The story was good, but choices that were made by characters just made me pissed off lol. Love the opening song to this one .. can never go wrong with Utada Hikaru :))
10. Ashita, Mama ga Inai

Japanese Drama - 2014, 9 episodes

8.0

Little wholesome drama with great acting from the child actors. My fav character was Locker... didn't say a word for almost the whole drama but made me feel for him.
11. Code Blue Season 2

Japanese Drama - 2010, 11 episodes

9.0

Better than first season. Binged it in about 2 days which is kinda rare for me and medical dramas. :))
12. Code Blue

Japanese Drama - 2008, 11 episodes

8.5

Really love the character development in this one. Everyone grew in their own ways which I was so glad to see. Solid 8.5/10 .. very bingeable !
13. Kimi wa Petto

Japanese Drama - 2003, 10 episodes

6.5

Drama had me yelling at these characters the whole time lol. Concept was weird and a lot of the characters made dumb decisions, but at least it all resulted in a happy ending.
