A drama from TBS, aired from January 9, 1998 until March 27, 1998. This is a human drama about people with disabilities. Well, it's a sad drama since in this drama, they're not treated in a good way, even some of them had been resented by their families because of their disabilities. Yet, they still find some ways to make their lives positive and useful, which in this drama, they're working in small factory while playing some instruments to produce good music. Guess, you've got a picture about the story goes in this drama, haven't you? Then, one thing, if you're into a slice-of-life drama, you must watch this one. And as usual, the Japanese drama had always teach you something about life and the characters in this drama can deliver the message pretty well.
About the characters, the main protagonist is Towa Machida, a man who has a disability and he had moved out from his house because his family considered him as a nuisance. Well, not all, he had a good relationship with his mother and his mother also cared him a lot, but his mother had to give him up because his father and his brother did bothered by his condition. Towa actually had a rough life since he's always being bullied and his brother did hate him, so did his father. Yet, he always thought about his family, he also agreed to move out because he didn't want to be hated by his brother and his father even more. Then, his life after moving out, it's not that good because he's being treated badly in factory that he worked in. Everything's just went bad until he met a girl named Arisu Tsuchiya, who's later became his love interest. Ah ya, in the factory, he also had some friends who had similar conditions with him and a music teacher who taught him about playing accordion. There other characters are the boss and the boss' family in the factory, the superiors in factory, the family of Arisu, the family of Towa, and the family of Towa's friends. It looked like the drama had a lot of characters, but the story is centered the relationship between Towa and Arisu. Though, the other characters also had their issues which later became problems in the dorama.
Towa Machida is played well by Issei Ishida. Seriously, he did a great performance in this dorama and plus, he looks cute as well, like a cute little puppy. Ryoko Hirosue is....stunning. She can reflect her character as a rebellious highschool girl. The two of them had a good chemistry and I'd love to see this pairing and it's cute since it's about Towa and Arisu's first love. It's just fun to see the relationship between Towa and Arisu. In short, I'd hope there are other people who can watch this gem.
