One of the best dramas I've ever watched ! I will always remember all the things I've learned from watching this super sad drama. I cried from the first episode till the last one. This drama is really recommended. Especially to all moms and dads out there and those couples who are going to get married or are having a child soon. This drama will teach you guys what it really means to become a mother and a father. And children, when you watch this, you will then realize that your parents are the best things that you could ever have. Appreciate them, love them. 

This drama is a story about a 10 year old, Noguchi Tomoya, who killed a 7 year old boy named Kiyotaka. The story revolves around both families, the criminal family and the victim family. It's really sad! But I love how they showed the development of both families until the very end. Tomoya, I wanted to hate him for killing such an innocent child but then, as I watched the drama, I found out more and more about him and I started to realize than he is just a normal 10 year old. But, with a lonely life. He has the kindness in him, he loves his mother, he loves his father, he is just an ordinary 10 year old boy. 

Tomoya's mother was the one who suffered the most because of his action but she never lose hope on her only son. She was always there to support him although Tomoya already closed his heart towards her. She was starting to realize that it was all her fault that Tomoya did the crime. She was starting to regret of not being a good mother to her son and for not realizing the loneliness and suffering her son was going through.

The victim family somehow getting on my nerves sometimes but if I was in their place, I would act the same way too. Losing the one we loved the most, it's hurt, right? Mihoko (played by Kawashima Umika), the older sister of Kiyotaka, who always wishing for her brother to disappear from her life, starting to regret everything she had said when her brother disappeared for real. I love Mihoko's character so much in here. Although she was kind of annoying at first.

This is Kakazu Issei. The one who played Noguchi Tomoya in the drama. He's a very talented young boy and he was able to bring Tomoya's character into life! I hope to see more of him in future dramas.

Yosh, that's all :D
