| 2. | Comments by marspeach [Rating: 9/10] Inevitably cheesy but overall a very touching show and a different subject from the usual stuff. Karina was great and so believable playing retarded. Cried several times per episode. |
| 3. | Comments by natzumi [Rating: 7/10] Rated 6.5
Not really my type of drama, but I thought the main actress did an excellent job protraying a handicapped person. The story is quite touching and at times very sad. |
| 4. | Comments by rikastar [Rating: 7/10] Karina has not really impressed me much before as an actress or mode before but I think this is a real breakthrough for her. An equally solid performance from the actress playing the role of Yuzu's mom as well. |
| 5. | Comments by chokakoi [Rating: 9/10] A very touching drama.
And I am glad the ending was nice. It reflects the pain that the mentally-disabled people are going through, and it's touching to see how in the show, many people are willing to help them and give them chances. |

| 8. | Comments by xploring [Rating: 7/10] The 3 main actresses delivered very good performances, but I don't like this very much. I don't dislike it, but it just seemed too ... sentimental sometimes. It has its sincere moments too though. |
| 9. | Comments by aoi_dolphine [Rating: 8/10] Having Karina taking the role of a mental disable person is refreshing for a change. This is also a chance for me to see her in another new image. She pull the role off well and the drama really addresses the problems faced by the family and the person herself. Worth watching. |
| 10. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 10/10] Rated this series a 10 because of the performance of Karina...in other words Karina disappeared and I was only aware of Yuzu on the screen.....I hope she wins "Best actress award" somewhere ......Interesting not too important fact .....Yuzu worked in a bakery, In KinPachi Sensei 7 Yayoi (who was mentally disabled) worked in a bakery, and in Algernon ni Hanataba there was a bakery where a group of mentally diabled worked..........hmmmm |
| 11. | Comments by kaitosan20 [Rating: 9/10] karina was such a good actress |
| 12. | Comments by Milano [Rating: 8/10] well made |
| 13. | Comments by sadacori [Rating: 9/10] This is a wonderful story about a mentally disabled woman who has a child. Though there are struggles and hardship, she does her best (with the help of friends and family) and matures into a loving mother, helpful daughter, and considerate sister. Highly recommended |
| 14. | Comments by 8thSin [Rating: 10/10] Absolutely phenomenal |
| 15. | Comments by v1olet [Rating: 9/10] A heartwarming family drama about a mild mentally dissabled Yuzu raising her daughter Himawari as single mom. That's how a family are supposed to be, help each other, support each other, and comfort each other. Daisuki! |
| 16. | Comments by TakumaSan [Rating: 8/10] such great acting

| 17. | Comments by azngelique [Rating: 8/10] nice plot.. karina's acting is so amazing.. |
| 18. | Comments by JackClark [Rating: 10/10] I love this drama, Karina acting blows me away. The best supprting cast I've seen in a drama with Saki Fukuda, Megumi and Konno Mahiru. I think I have a crush on Konno. |
| 19. | Comments by Madrigal [Rating: 9/10] This is pretty good to but no 1 liter of tears. It had the makings of it but story is just a little weaker and some might not be convinced with Katrina Nose as Fukuhara Yuzu. Katrina is still good tho. |
| 20. | Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 8/10] Karina is phenomenal!!! The drama itself isn't anything special, but Karina is so good she makes this a must see drama. |
| 21. | Comments by sinned12 [Rating: 9/10] One of my favs!!! |
| 22. | Comments by KrazyMonkey78 [Rating: 8/10] Pretty good story in dealing with mental illnesses. |
| 23. | Comments by snow_san [Rating: 10/10] Here's a cut&paste of the synopsis since it's not up.
Yuzu, a 23-year-old mentally disabled woman with the mind of an 8-year-old, falls in love with Sosuke, a man with a similar disability. After Sosuke is involved in a fatal accident, Yuzu's family discovers she is 5 months pregnant with his child. Though Yuzu is intent on having the child, her mother, Miyoko, is immediately against it. After her family comes to terms with her pregnancy, Yuzu eventually gives birth to her daughter, Himawari. With many odds against her, Yuzu does her best to care for the daughter she so dearly loves.
Well I think the synopsis pretty much tells the story. Yuzu's got a good heart and plenty of determination.
Wonderful & touching drama. :) Everyone should watch this! Tears of joy&sadness just about every episode! |
