[Discussion] 14 Sai no Haha / 14-year-old Mother

I figured I'd create a topic for this drama after finished watching part of the debut episode.

14 Sai no Haha

Synopsis
Shida Mirai, the young actress of Jyoou no Kyoushitsu fame, plays an average high school student who becomes pregnant with her lover’s child. The drama will show her gradually maturing as the circumstances around her change.

I was impressed with what I'd seen so far. The first ep was very good in introducing the characters and the story. Shida Mirai in the role of the 14 yr old girl is very charming. She sure has matured a lot in her acting since Queen's classroom, no more awkward gesturing and silly laughs; in this drama, she carries the show very well. Since I watched this without the English subtitles, I was only able to grasp part of the story so far, but the actings from all the other actors are convincing and solid. It was a very good first epi, I'm sure that I will tune in again for the next ep. I just hope this won't turn out to be too melodramatic later on. Imo, this drama has the potential to be 'the' show of the Fall season. The dramas this season are good Smile

.

Ooh, I just thought that the scenes between Mirai and that boy were very sweet. Okie, everyone, discuss away!!

I've just finished the first episode and I must admit that I just love it, even though the story is quite simple.
If the Drama keeps its level than it definitely has the chance to be the best drama of the fall season.
I also think that Shida Mirai did a very good job in this episode!

By the way, just ask if you want me to write a summary of this episode!
Since the japanese was pretty simple, I was able to get everthing.

Shida Mirai is a good actress. but it's still too young to play this role......childish

I think she plays this part very well. How else would you expect a 14-year-old to behave? They're still not very mature (even teenagers older than that aren't so mature.. i should know. Roll Eyes

)

Some parts were very moving; such as after she discovers she is in fact pregnant. ;_; And the 2nd episode looks even better~ I can't wait! Somehow I feel Satoshi is going to do stupid things since he's kinda messed up rofl.

and it works since looking at her and Satoshi together you kinda go Blink

I loved the 1st episode. I was pretty intent on claiming that I'm not taking any dramas this season, but it was so tempting.. In the end, I couldn't resist.

I love Shida, (although I must admit, when I first saw her in Detective academy I didn't exactly like her)

I also love the way they made her look more mature with her hair. She was cute 2 months before, and then she became quite pretty (gloomy though)

The second episode looks intense, especially the scene with the father. (When my dad found out that my sister was pregnant, he was pretty calm, he cried, but he didn't yell. (my sister is 20 though so I guess that makes a bit of a difference))

I absolutely love this drama already. Shida Mirai did an excellent job. The ending was really powerful. It was very sad. I can't wait to see what happens next.

I watched first episode, and thought it was pretty good but...

One moment they are just holding hands....now she is pregnant? lol I mean. Isn't that a bit of a jump? She showed no tendency whatsoever to be that type of girl who would just have sex with some guy...I just could not buy it at all. The acting as good but the plot left something to be desired for me. It just isn't believable from the way they shot the first episode.

Oh, it's awesome. I really loved it. I didn't like that Yanagisawa girl at all and felt like there was no need to have her there, but apart from that, it's absolutely lovely. I can't wait for more episodes to show up.

The scene when they're about to do it and when she sees the grown Jimi are really nice...The music background really gets you in...
