Blackboard - Jidai to Tatakatta Kyoshi tachi (2012)

plot wise this is one of the most outstanding drama specials. The whole plot was so interesting the way the events unfolded from the beginning until the end. You rarely watch something war related that is about the teaching that this drama has. It shows how a whole nation was altered because of war. A truly touching story unfolded in front of my eyes while i watched this in front of many people who though of me as strange for crying like that during it.

The acting in this drama is strong and superb with only Oshima Yuko's and Aoi's falling behind my expectations. The whole cast did great with sho proving that he is not as mediocre as most people say. If you have not watched him act in this, you have not seen his real potential.

Music wise, what can i say, it was amazing, melodic and tearful every time the music played, my feelings were ebign enhanced.

I do not know if i would rewatch this again. this is not a comedy, but i think tha strong feelings that you have when you watch it for the first time, will remain the same even for the second time.
