It was a pretty smooth Japanese drama without the unnecessary angst into it. This type of genre is really my type but I guess I am not into it as much as the other dramas I have watched with the same theme. This drama focuses more on family rather than romance so I didn't really feel the chemistry of the leads. The overall pacing and the different themes portrayed in each episode is pretty well presented. I just find some actors awkward, and it's hard to watch them. Overall one of the dramas that could just be watched in one sitting.
