Ahhh! So excited now!
Oh, and the rating (for Kanto) for episode 1 was 10.9, but the second episode got 11.5! And I remember reading somewhere about them reshowing episode 1 on the saturday because of its reaction with viewers.
Maybe its hard for viewers to choose either this serie or shikaotoko aoniyoshi... both have aired at the same time. And the rating for episode 2 shikaotoko aoniyoshi drop from 13.0 to 11.4.

I watched Ep1 yesterday..
Hidden:
I enjoyed every single monets of this drama with really great amazing acting by Karina, she did real a nice job trying hardly to be as this kind of hard role.. also I can understand her mother situation when she was against her having the baby in this sitauation it'll be hard raising it.. also she is a single mother.. but really seeing the cute baby make me smile the whole time with such adorable cuttness & what with this girl that appeared in the end of Ep telling that she id Shou-chan wife how come when previous when she found the baby she was wearing a school uniform or I am wrong??
this drama is really worth to watch..

Ep1 was very touching, and I was quite impressed with Karina's acting.
I think the producers have done a good job too; 1st of all to even choose on a touchy subject like this one.
(Personally, it was a gentle reminder that there're other people in this world who are struggling through life.)
Anyways, I see a lot of character development in this one, so I'll definitely keep watching.
Although the introduction of Fukuda Saki's character threw me off a bit.
I'm guessing they're just adding more drama to drama.
Well, hopefully it doesn't get too complicated.

Mother loves for her children surpass everything.
This show really show the power and love of a mother for her child, Karin’s mum and Karin to himari.
Hope this drama will show the relationship of the karin and her daughter from baby to high school. I want to see how they overcome all the stuff and those immature human around them.

It's been awhile since there was a drama about a mentally disabled person. The first ep was a little grating, but it served as a nice backdrop for the story and characters. The second ep was much more interesting. They have the obligatory social discrimination plot, but they also had a unique insight into the necessity of proper education and socialization for both children and the autistic....
For some reason, I prefer when Hiraoka plays more subdued-type characters, as opposed to his super-cool, slick and popular-guy roles. ^_^;
I liked the addition of Fukuda's character. It adds more depth potential for the family-centric plot. And it gives us a bit of a break from the incessant, "Hiimaawariii!!!" ^_^;;;
Overall, much more interesting than I thought it would be....

Maybe I'm heartless, but I'm still thinkin Daisuki!! is a bit over the top. I am very very impressed with Karina's acting, but I can't keep crying for 45 Minutes, so I would have preferred it had the first episode had some "lighter" bits, too.

@TabooxNightmare - hahaha, very true; but the beginning is the saddest part so far.
As for the previews of the 4th ep,
Hidden:
While I think that the working Yuzu is interesting, the relationship between Ren (Hiraoka Yuta) and his follower girl is kind of boring. She probably thought Yuzu was his girlfriend or some other thing- I can't see her "breaking up" (were they ever together in the first place?} with him because his sister has a disorder. That would make her worse than the other mothers at the preschool, who are just a pain to watch.

Although I don't watch much television, but I've come to believe that Japanese dramas focus on one central message. That message is usually conveyed in one scene. I call it the drama's "topic sentence" or "thesis statement," meaning it's easier to see them as a paragraph or an essay.
Hence, I don't think the Ren/Natsume relationship is important in the normal sense. Whatever goes down is about Ren and the decisions he makes about his life. The girl is there to remind of us what he could have had if he wasn't making such a huge sacrifice. For me, the "topic sentence" in this drama directly relates to what the social worker said about the family falling apart. The potential angst hasn't even scratched the surface yet.
Oh...Natsume is clearly in a different class from Ren. Yuzu's mental problems would contribute to that relationship being impossible. I wonder why that poor girl can't get roles where she's not the "other" woman????
Truthfully, I wanted to smack those Mothers down. However, my Mom worked in the mental health system for 27 years. In my opinion, those women are mild/tame by comparison to some of the people my Mom's clients have encountered. My question is whether or not the Japanese have laws to protect Yuzu.

Another great episode...
You know, over the years, I've really weened myself off of crying during TV shows, but this show always has one moment that just makes me shed a few tears...
That and... ちょっと沙紀ちゃんが好きになっちゃったんだ。 She won me over in this episode...
Now... I can't wait to see what happens next week.

The Salary-man look should've tipped me off about Himawari sprouting up another few years

I've just seen the first two episodes, but I can say this is the best drama so far this season, alongside Saito-san.
It's so intense and touching that you become completely absorbed by the plot.

A MUST-SEE !!
i defintely agree with you, this drama and Saito-san are the best for me this season!! this drama just keeps on getting better and i find myself crying in each episode.
i just hope the Ren and Kotone will become a couple, they look good together.
im just a little disappointed with the older Himawari, she's not as cute as the younger one.

Hahahaha... you aren't alone... ^_^;;;
Especially since little Himawari looks exactly like one of my nieces when she was that age... :p
Last episode was good. I really thought Kotone was going to snap at Yuzu in the convenience store, but was pleasantly surprised at how she managed everything that transpired. I guess I underestimated the amount of empathy she had for her brother and the Fukuhara household.
I'm not sure if I want to see Ren and Kotone together though. They do share a kinship because of their siblings, but it just seems too easy.... I dunno...

What is with jdramas and having most of the moms be uber-cows when their kids are at school? Either that, or they're ultra-passive and just do whatever the group says. And it's never because of anything the kids do, it's always parents having a beef with some other parents. Beeyotches.
