Ichi rittoru no namida

I remember when I first watched this at the age of 15, it was my very first Japanese drama and first drama to watch. I'm glad I had started this as my first drama to watch as it was absolutely incredible. It provide emotional connection between the every character and literally every episode had me in tears at a young age. The character development and emotional connection between everyone to the main character and how she effected those around her really showed a personal insight to real life situations. LOVED IT!

Just finished watching this been putting it of because i knew i would cry .I cried on every episode i know it was based on a true story and some scenes are added for the drama which i think it works really well. The acting was excellent from all actors . really fell in love with japanese drama it doesnt sugarcoat anything . this is one of the best ive seen .

My first ever review about any show. I am out of words , what to say about this show . This show will change perspective of you towards living and about life itself , which we take for granted . Make you think about things we never sometime don't take seriously .

the series starts with a shocking speech about aya's(main character) future,a great looking girl whose kind expression and smile make the audience to fall in love with her character in the first ten minute,the ten minute warm-up for an eleven_episode of great drama that is perfectly formed with superb script,acting,cinematography,and music... it's one of those dramas that you know how it ends as you are informed in the first minute of the series...BUT it's a story about hope,inspiration ,and love ...and Aya's challenging and extremely strong personality makes you accompany her through her pains,sadness,and hopes... the series is based on the diary of Aya kito but one thing is added to the script to make the series more dramatic and that's Asou ,Aya's classmate whose involvement in Aya's life create some of the most dramatic and unforgettable moments in the history of Japanese dramas... at the end of each episode you witness a slideshow of Aya's life accompanied by over the top song... well that's about it...A liter of tears stands next to nobuta wa produce as my favorite jdramas,Do not miss it.but remember don't except funny moment.Arigato..

This show is probably one of the best ever made.Is based on Aya Kito story, a girl with an incurable disease who never lost the will to get better.Erika Sawajiri plays Aya masterly, through her we can see how the upcoming disease will change her life forever and how the world she knew slowly fade away.To me one of the best things of the show is Ryo Nikishido character,Asou Haruto,A lost boy who falls in love with Aya even before to know that she was ill and after knowing he decides to stand next to her no matter what, their relation is so pure during the whole show, they don t even touch each other but you can't stop to feel the deep love that the boy feels for her. Aya's mother is played by hiroko Yakushimaru, her performance is full of love and tenderness and you can feel how deep the love between mother and daughter is...All the cast of the show is perfect and every chapter is great.. the show finds the beauty of the sadness and talks about how painful real love can be.it was the first Asian drama I have never seen and since then I have not stopped to watch dramas
