Soredemo, ikite yuku (Eita, Mizushima Hikari) - Fuji TV Summer 2011

currently airing, up to ep 3 is available on d-addicts.

The last J-dorama that I enjoyed was Nagareboshi, and before that it was Mother (though I haven't finished Mother because it seemed like such a tear-jerker >"<). It's only inevitable that the drama I'm currently watching and falling in love with is written by the same scriptwriter as Mother, Sakamoto Yuji (who also penned Tokyo Love Story, FYI), and filmed by the same crew that filmed Nagareboshi :D Though I must add, so far Soredemo seems more promising than Nagareboshi. It has such themes as people committing sins, the concept of forgiving, and dealing with a painful past to move on with your future.

Just like Nagareboshi, it's beautifully filmed, and looks even more realistic than the dreamy blue color of Nagareboshi. The first episode is somewhat slow, but episode 2 was stunning. Overall, it's a serious drama with such a good cast (Eita, Mizushima Hikari) that, if it's kept up at this rate and doesn't insert any head-scratching plot twister later on, it might just be one of my all-time favorite drama. Highly recommended ;)
