After Takuto graduates university, he has to fight to find a job like many others. But not only that is giving him a hard time, also his home isn't what he would consider very warm, either. His younger brother is the precious son, since he prepares to study medicine and with that can take over the family hospital. And since he needs a lot of support, Takuto feels like he is invisible. Even after he finally finds work, his mother doesn't praise him. But he has good friends and by chance found a girlfriend while looking for work! Things turn for the worse, when he finds out he has a disease called ALS that will slowly take one thing after another from him and eventually take his life as well.

When I found this drama, I thought "One liter of tears, but with a male lead!". After watching the first episode, I was preparing myself, so that I won't cry later. But to be honest... It wasn't anything close to one liter of tears. I didn't cry as much, the message was a bit different and it wasn't as "nice" to watch, as I expected.

While I'm not quite sure what the drama was trying to tell us, I still thought it was nice to watch. There were many scenes that made me laugh, which is good. On the other hand, I wasn't all too fond of the drama starting from episode 6. The 5th episode was one of the best episodes, but after that it kept dragging.

So, actually my expectations were just really high which in the end resulted in utter disappointment. Trying to be fair, I still give it 3* because the acting wasn't bad and I liked to watch the story. Also, the humor was awesome.
