Not Good Enough
Japanese Drama "Fishbowl Wives" is a drama about toxic relationships, and wives that are facing various marital problems.
The story starts with the introduction of the main lead and her seemingly perfect life. Things are rushed to have her running away, which was the highlight of the drama. However, she stayed in that avoiding reality phase for the whole drama, until the most cliche thing happened and she had finally to face her problems. The ending was realistic, on that note, and it was probably what fitted the story the best. However, the love story was bleak and boring after a while of not having anything happening.
On the other hand, the short stories that were added on the main one were pretty interesting and some of them often stole the thunder from the actual story.
Finally, the cinematography was pretty, especially the posters for the drama, and the performances were excellent.
So, overall, 4 out of 10.
