This was a surprisingly well-acted drama! In the past I have winced at performances from Aibu Saki and Nagase Tomoya, but they did well this time around. The dialect they spoke for the most part felt very natural. This drama's story was engaging right from the start, although they made the ending just a bit too obvious from the very first episode. But maybe that was the intention of the series? It's not the ending that matters (the one true ending is "everyone dies" after all), but the shape and story of lives. So truly, this was an amazing and funny drama! |

This is my #1 this season.
Beats the generic Galileo hands down with it's atmosphere. I'm kind of.. debating with myself how to compare this with ŧÏt [Shigehoshi], because that one is SO weird.. But I'm more fond of Utahime, nevertheless.
I've been totally hooked to Utahime the whole time, and the series just keep getting better and better.
It has got the feeling of "the good old days", being really relaxing, refreshing and kind of.. totally giving a break from the busy life. It's like diving into another universe and the warm humour and the small, planned details are total love.
A true jewel this season, I'm disappointed for the ratings (or maybe I should just be angry with the person who decided on this drama's airing time?).
And the theme song is pretty much gorgeous. It's kind of 'gloomy' by it's image, but it has a positive message nevertheless. |

I didn't think this show would be any good to be honest but i was very pleasantly surprised. The memory-loss thing can be soo overused but it worked very well and kind of in a different way. this show is absolutely darling and probably one of the better ones this season. |

I thought it was kind of boring in the beginning but then it got good and made me cry buckets. |

An amazing story. Simply one of the best in years. Great acting and cast. The ending splits the audience in two when it comes to the heart - but the brain says it's the way it should be. A perfect 10! |

I wasn't very impressed with the first half of this series. A cute lighthearted feel to the drama, nice characters, loose storyline, overall very relaxed. I felt it became much more interesting towards the end in the last 3 episodes.
Tomoya Nagase plays a young man named Yuichi or Taro (name throughout most of the drama) who has lost his memory and ends up on the beach. A girl named Suzu discovers him and her family takes him in and treats him as one of their own. Suzu falls in love with him in the very beginning and Taro slowly starts to fall in love with her also. This is great and all but I felt it was a little awkward for a guy to fall in love with someone he saw grow up like a little sister. That's beside the point.
Anyway, I only found the drama to start getting interesting when Yuichi's wife came into the picture. I felt that she was the best character in the whole series. She was in such a tough position - seeing her husband after 10 years and finding out that he doesn't remember her at all and is in love with another woman. I don't see her on the list of actors, but I feel that Koike Eiko did an outstanding and convincing job as Miwako. Midway through, I would have actually liked to see more of her on screen rather than Suzu and Taro.
Anyway, I liked how the drama dealt with the town's feelings about the situation and it just shows how selfish people can be. The ending was well done, it helped tie up all the loose endings. It's not something that can be said for most of the dramas they have on today.
Overall, this drama is worth watching. I was going to give it a 7, but because of the ending - I gave it one extra point. |

I give Utahime a 9.5. Seriously, ratings lie. Utahime is definitely worth watching. Usually I get really annoyed with settings in history, but this is my first and I looooved it. Tomoya Nagase is a wonderful actor. His other dramas don't do him justice. This one definitely is his best. If you are a Nagase fan, watch it. Best in the season. |

A must see! Nagase Tomoya who play Taro really did a wonderful job, in the end you really respect and admire his actions and choices through out his journey. Comedically he was hilarious, there were countless times when i would laugh out loud. I can honestly say he was perfect for that role.
Aibu Saki who plays the adorable Suzu, you will surely fall in love with this character and really feel for her when she faces hardship. She looked great for her role, very kawaii, and had really good chemistry with Taro.
The rest of the cast did great job as well, i think the entire cast deserves a lot of credit. The story is about memory loss, but has enough comedy and emotion in it to make it into an outstanding story. The ending was fanatistically satisfying which i find quite rare these days. Definately if you like a happy unpredictable ending this jdorama will satisfy your needs! |

The storyline was promising but it was just totally average, in fact I'd call it more of a slice-of-life flick, you have to be patient and interested in their everyday life since theres not supposed to be an actual deep plot that will keep you hooked. Nagase Tomoya didn't exactly shine here too, it was just like his everyday 'bad guy with a good heart' performance. The other characters didn't stand out that much so frankly, theres nothing too attractive about this. Maybe this should have been shortened to 6 episodes. |
