Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi (one Million Stars) is not all about incest. The incest is there for a reason

I'm intrigued by your summary! I really want to watch it now, but I'm a bit intimidated. Is it too dark to really enjoy? Do the OTP get any really good moments, or are they constantly in pain? Is the ending satisfying?

[scottishlass]

Hey, long time no see! *waves*

There are lighter moments but overall it is a very dark dorama. Every single character is in pain at one point or the other.
As for the ending .. yes it is satisfying in the way that there is no other ending than that of Ryo in the series, he is beyond happiness and the right to live. If you have watched the music vids, they spoiler the ending quite a bit. IMHO I found it more satisfying then let's say the ending of Nemureru Mori (Sleeping Forest) where I found Naoki's death totally unneccessary.

This sounds absolutely incredible.

Must watch it now.

Weird that he doesn't object to murder, but does to incest. Hmmm...

[scottishlass]

I think one of the reason why murder doesn't touch him is ... that it has not to do with him on a deeper level. He kills, but it is more like an afterthought for him. IMHO, his killings stem from the fact that he is willing to fall in love with the women but can't as they are not the right ones, so he gets rid of them like a used handkerchief

That sounds very very unusual and interesting. I will definitely check this out now.
