Otto no Katei wo Kowasu made (2024)

Revenge is a dish best served with green beans

Let's be real. Could I resist a series called " Until I Destroy my Husband's Family"? Nope, I couldn't.

Otto no Katei wo Kowasu made may have been a low budget series and may have gotten a bit draggy towards the end, but no one can deny that it was entertaining.

Matsumoto Marika is splendidly overacting from beginning to end, as many of the actors and actresses in the series. I may have not read the manga, but the drama definitely had the right vibes. The plot itself was entertaining for the most part, even though there were some predictable moments, especially if you have watched similar series in the past. The ending was not that great, writing-wise, but it was good enough. Lastly, thumbs up to the people responsible for the music (♪ Galileo Galileiii ♪)!

In simple words, Until I Destroy my Husband's Family is an entertaining revenge drama, that would definitely benefit from less episodes, a higher budget and a better written ending.

When payback is being handled, there will be drama!

With the drama titled "Until I Destroy My Husband's Family" the storyline points towards being a heavy revenge-driven drama. Which it definitely is!

The plot is wrapped in a slice of life- and thrilleresque way which drives forward the plot unveiling of a long scam.
Minori, the female lead, actress portrays her with so many emotions which is a huge interested from my perspective. The silent
retribution she takes is beyond gratifying!

A big part of setting the tone to the drama is the music. Both the opening and ending songs add character to the plot and is incorporated to add the finesse and the emotions when needed. Not only that, they come to be very catchy!

After finishing the show, I did believe that the drama sadly dragged on for too long. After a dramatic vengeance that was wrapped up and with various episodes to go before the end, the show lost the "spark" it previously had as it now tackled the characters trying to move on from the events. As the revenge no longer drives the story forward, romance and angst took its place. The ending wasn't perfect and turned more into soap drama.

Given that, I do think this is a fun watch if you are looking for a revenge drama with dramatics. And if the music hooks you in, you know you will be watching the story unfold!
