This is only a three-episode series and is, quite frankly, one of the best dramas if not the best I have ever seen. The acting is superlative and the story is sublime. I could not help but crying during many scenes – mostly from the awe, beauty, and inspiration. In keeping with other great asian classics, there is a timeless quality about this drama.
This is a drama about doctors and their affairs. Very well acted with multiple interweaving themes occurring in the plot.
Outstandingly excellent drama about an intellectually disadvantaged young man and a team of researchers who have developed a breakthrough experimental drug that significantly increases brain function. The acting is superlative and the story explores a lot of deep themes.
This is an absolutely first-class drama with some of the best acting talent in Japan in a gripping story about a man who loses his memory and slowly rebuilds his life as if a stranger to everything and everyone he previously knew.
As with many other jdramas, it deals with a subject which is a real issue that affects people: Those who have experienced and are recovering from brain injury. In the context of this film, his injury provides a vehicle to explore issues of identity, loyalty, ego, achievement and success, happiness, and love.
Previous season
This gripping drama about a superstar author and her ghostwriter is a masterpiece. Explores issues related to artistic creativity and identity. Note: the subs linked to above are not timed for the 480p raws linked above. You can find the 720p raws on nyaa.se. [Update: It appears the subs don’t sync perfectly with the 720p raws either. If you use VLC media player you can easily advance or delay the subs using the G and H keys.]
Gripping drama about a famous newscaster and his wife and their highly unusual relationship.
Touching and often uplifting drama about two sisters and their lives going through transformations.
This is a great drama if you want something lighter yet also highly interesting to watch. It is about coroners in the city of Tokyo and their investigations going beyond normal duties.
Note:
I find that some of the subs have fonts that are too small. It is very easy to open a sub file in an editor like Notepad+ to increase the size. For example, here is a sample line from a sub file which sets the font size to 20:
Default,Arial,20,&H00FFFFFF,&H000000FF,&H00000000,&H00000000,0,0,0,0,100,100,0,0,1,2,2,2,10,10,10,1
To change it to something larger such as 32 just edit it as follows:
Default,Arial,32,&H00FFFFFF,&H000000FF,&H00000000,&H00000000,0,0,0,0,100,100,0,0,1,2,2,2,10,10,10,1
