    Excellent! A must watch!
    Hi

    This is the first drama that got me hooked to J-Dramas. I watched it recently though it was aired long time ago 1996. It still fresh and relatable even today.All the characters are well developed and the actors have given outstanding performance. I became huge fan of Japan's heartthrob Kimura Takuya. He is an excellent performer. Very natural. I watched some more of his dramas (Hero,Pride etc). In each he plays all together different characters with different body language. He looks so natural in all his dramas.

    The supporting cast also did a good job. The story may seem slow at the beginning but I suggest you to complete watching the series to realise how awesome it is.

    Also I need to give credit to lead actress Yamaguchi Tomoko for pulling off her role so effortlessly. Her chemistry with Kimura Takuya is excellent. For all Kimura Takuya fans,this drama is a must watch!
