    Good, but...

    Full disclosure, I wound up with a dodgy second hand bootleg DVD which didn't contain the final episode, so I don't know how this ended, but I can guess.

    The three episodes I saw, this is a decent period tv series set in 20/30's Japan. The actual story nearly had me banging my head, though. It was basically Shoko following her man and getting shortchanged (both emotionally and financially) over and over. Yes, she's spirited and plucky and capable, but I still felt overwhelmingly that she would have been better off without him. Even taking into consideration the era and culture!

    Actual look of the series is nice with convincing sets and costumes. Worth a look for fans of Japanese tv.
