Soratobu Kouhoushitsu was truly one of the most touching and inspiring dramas that I have ever seen up to date. This isn't the kind of drama I usually watch and the only drama related to planes I've ever seen were the Attention Please series. However, don't let this kind of bias stop you from watching this drama because the story is so beautiful and intricate. This drama isn't extremely fast-paced but will slowly sink into your heart and create a space for its place. That is the kind of drama it is. So the acting in this drama is golden. Aragaki Yui and Ayano Go both stole my heart in this drama. I had seen Yui at numerous other dramas like Legal High, Zenkai Girl, and My Boss My Hero but this drama proves once again that she is a phenomenal actress. However this is my first drama with Ayano Go and I have touched by his acting. His expressions are so on point and his intense crying scenes are so well acted that they made me cry. I haven't cried while watching a drama in a long time but this drama managed to get me to be a little teary at almost every episode. A special mention goes out to Shibasaki Kyohei who played Sagisaka-san and is like the boss ever. He is such a cool and amazing character that is hard to find in dramas nowadays. Kaname Jun played a classy, cutey idiot very well and brought some great comical scenes in the drama. All of the supporting cast did a fantastic job in their roles and the drama felt very real to me, like that it wasn't a drama, and that the characters were actually living their roles. The music of the drama wasn't too big in number and mostly one song was used. That song was Amuro Namie's Contrail which is such a nice song! It was the perfect song for the scenes in the drama and has become one of my favorite songs now. Everything about the drama was so beautiful and was put together so nicely. The direction, production, and camera work were all so spectacular so I had to mention them. So to end, I just can't with this drama. I gave this drama an overall almost 10 because it deserved that score. The drama left me satisfied in the end. I didn't feel like the end was incomplete or that there wasn't enough romance between the leads. Whatever genres and themes that were intended to be expressed in this drama were expressed very well. I'm pretty sure you won't regret taking the time to watch this and it is a shame that this drama isn't as popular as others.
