Keep on living
The title of this drama doesn't really come into play until the last episode but it delivers a great message.
Story: The simple way of explaining the plot is a a whole school along with some students and teachers suddenly are transported to a desert like area. The drama has a other messages as well as live for the moment. For a sci fi drama that aired in 2002, I think they did the best they could with adding in effects. The story is the best part of the drama as it keeps you watching to see if they will continue living or will they get back to the past. It makes you keep guessing to how the world became like a desert. It features a lot about surviving with so little resources around you. It gives you a message of don't give up on living no matter how tough it is. I think the ending was that Asami changed the future by calling Misaki which changes a lot in the future. At the end they showed the school but in the background was a grass area that meant the future wasn't a desert.
Cast/Acting/Characters: First off I want to rant about the character Sekiya. I think this character was not needed at all in the drama. The challanges the students and the teachers had to face were already tough but this crazy woman being there as well was a pain. The character was a big part to why I can't give it a 10 due to how annoying she was.
Now, I think that the two leads Asami-sensei played by Kubozuka Yosuke and Misaki-sensei played by Tokiwa Takako were great in their roles. Their small love story progressing through the drama didn't feel cringe at all. I like how they become the father and mother to the students during this hard time.
Music: I like Tatsuro Yamashita's song loveland island. It gives off a vibe to the era of music this drama aired although the song feels more 90's but fits in well in the early 2000's. The song gives a opposite feeling than the serious plot.
Rewatch : I was really motivated to watch each episode to find out what would happen next or so. This drama is worth watching again due to so many moments it brought.
Overall: Watching them struggle so much in the future was hard but I enjoyed seeing them keep living and restoring the world. One last thing to say was the best scene to me was in episode 8 they were all singing the song "kyou no hi wa sayounara" (farewall for today) and a miracle happens as it rains and they are all happy that there is finally rain.
