[Discussion] Kaseifu no Mita (Matsushima Nanako)
Well with ep05, the mysery of Mita's trips to the amusement part (actually 千葉市動物園) starts to be cleared up. She apparently was waiting for her dead son at some time to the SE of the ferris wheel (although Mita changed positions in shooting, if you pay attention). Somehow this seems to be tied to Mita losing her feelings and turning into the perfect 家政婦, perhaps due to some sort of spell or whatever. You notice the comment by the mother at the neighboring table talking to her child? (「ほら、お母さんと二人分ですよね。」) I think Harumi character knows this, which is why she prays when she knows that Mita is coming. After Mita saves the Asuda family, I expect that the family in the end will save her in return, so that Mita becomes an imperfect human 家政婦 again, or maybe even a step-mother.
The Chojo, Yui, hasn't had her chance (i.e. a dedicated program) yet to get her crisis resolved (clearly with the Senpai boyfriend), so she remains after ep05 as the only sibling still opposing Keiichi from returning to the family.

AFAIK in the 1920s, the aprooven scientific theory was, that there is oxygen, gold and other sort of stuff on the backsiede of the moon. ;)«minah» wrote:^
Well... for Nakyoku's defense... it was set back in like...1950 so...... I guess maybe that was kinda the mindset back then? (and not that common for many Japanese people to go out there) But yeah... I don't think Antarctica is alive >_> It's a mass of land...

Hm, I think I used an unfitting word. I wanted to say "it was an accepted theory" to underline the fact, that it was...well "accepted" among scientists, and not something totally crazy. Sorry for the misunderstanding.seirin wrote:eh? Is that a sarcasm or an oxymoron? If it's proven, why is it still a theory? It would be an assumption.GaussAlgorithmus wrote: AFAIK in the 1920s, the aprooven scientific theory was, that there is oxygen, gold and other sort of stuff on the backsiede of the moon. ;)
Hopefully not. This is, fortunately, not a Hollywood movie, so I guess the "happy end" won't go so far. Saving the family would be enough, I suppose, to have the happy ending. I read, that Mita-san always leaves the family, after their problem is solved. She never stays too long in one place. But I hope, that we will uncover her past much more and that, eventually, she will get peace in mind, too.ps790 wrote:After Mita saves the Asuda family, I expect that the family in the end will save her in return, so that Mita becomes an imperfect human 家政婦 again, or maybe even a step-mother.

I read this too, so I was totally surprised, how the drama turned out to be. I expected her to never stay longer then one or two episodes at one family.suketa wrote:Hopefully not.

I don't think there's similarities after reading synopsis for Nanny McPhee. The children loves the Nanny/house keeper and Mita never does anything bad to them. She just follows their orders to the T. The only similarity is Mita is kind of like a Nanny. But there are tons of Nanny stories around. like "The Nanny", "Mary Poppins", "Mrs. Doubtfire", etc.«minah» wrote:^
I guess it's kinda like Nanny McPhee?(sp?) Just a twisted/sad/depressing version.......

I was only working with the idea of the comment "I suppose, to have the happy ending. I read, that Mita-san always leaves the family, after their problem is solved. " (someone who isn't needed anymore leaves) which is kinda what Nanny McPhee was (she left when the kids started to be obedient/good since her purpose was done...) I wasn't really trying to say they were the same (I never thought of that movie until someone said the comment I italicized...)

...I haven't seen Mary Poppins even though it's as old as heck so I'm not gonna reference something I haven't seen before (and I only saw McPhee because someone in my family was watching it) I didn't think it would be an issue here nor a problem to just state what was on my mind at that given time that wasn't really that serious or trying to seriously prove something...... (It was just a thought)
Anyways, am happy (and surprised) it went up in ratings again. I'm really liking that ending song too *gets stuck in my head* and patiently waiting for subs ^^ Anyone watched it already yet?

It's not a big issue. I haven't seen McPhee either. I just googled the synopsis and it made me cringe because Mita isn't one bit like her. She's more like Mary Poppins but in a more subdue sense. BTW, although Mary Poppins is old, I highly recommend it. Great story. I love the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious song. Yeah, she seems pretty high on sugar.

Ah ok because I started to get the impression that my comment rubbed you wrong or something. Nanny McPhee has that moralness to it but eh.. I barely remember much from it ^^;; Just the part where "You know when I'm not needed anymore..." and the kids were sad when she went away. I always meant to watch Marry Poppins but I dunno.. I just... never did lol. I think the live actionness turned me off when I was a kid since I associated Disney with cartoons and when I got older I just....forgot about it lol. But yeah since I didn't see MP my mind didn't automatically think of it when I made the original comment.

So..... yeah... my comment went missing after that crash whatever thingy.. -____- I don't wanna type it out again but yadda yadda don't like Yui still... (she's very much like her dad and I doubt they write her to realize that and understand the feelings her dad feels...) Mita was awesome.. she's becoming more and more.....emotional uh.... yeah can't wait for the next eppy

Well I think there's more curveballs to be thrown at us with this series (yeah it could go the Gokusen---> Misaki way lol) but if they wanted to the series could've just ended up at this episode minus Mita's past... but since this is eppy 6, there's like what... 4-5 more eppys left so what could they possibly do within 4-5 more episodes? With the approach that they're giving, I think it would all come together and make sense and may not be too draggy/unnecessary... (hopefully anyway)
Is anybody else annoyed at how selfish and stupid this family is?
I skipped through the "touching" family moments at the end of the last 2 episodes because I just don't care about them anymore. Every episode they make some ridiculous request of their housekeeper (slander my father's name at work, sabotage my daughter's school play, kill the kid who's been bullying me, etc) and time after time they never seem to learn a thing. They're all so irritating and all of those "look at how much they've grown!" moments feel so hollow and forced. I know what they request of her is meant to seem extreme and grotesque, but it just comes across as far too melodramatic and repetitive. It's so shallow.
Meanwhile, Mita herself is fascinating. I'll give the show that. Matsushima Nanako's performance has always been spot on and has a lot of depth, which is surprising considering that she's playing a very robotic, potentially one-note character. She's the one I'm still watching the show for.

That's what I meant to write but forgot to add.seirin wrote: I think everyone makes mistakes. I'm sure everyone's thoughts at one time were similar to theirs. Well, some of them.
as for annoying characters and their problems, we won't have a story to begin with if they did not behave like this. It's in your every drama that deals with such issues. they make you annoyed at first to give you satisfaction by the end.
I'm not satisfied with all of them. The dad is still a loser and idiot in my book. Yui growing a spine is getting better. But I don't like her know it all attitude or "I'm the eldest so I make all the calls" attitude.Issy wrote:That's what I meant to write but forgot to add.seirin wrote: I think everyone makes mistakes.

WHAAAA?!?! Omg wow...... Who would've thought it would hit 29!? WOW... And really I though Nankyoku was really gonna be THE hit drama this season and it actually went down in ratings unfortunately but... wow... next episode & finale.. be expected to see a 30% I'm not even into ratings but when something like this happens, I just get really surprised.
I'm talking about Episode 8, which just aired yesterday. Be aware of SPOILER if you haven't watch Episode 8 yet. (which subs hasn't been released yet, I think)«minah» wrote:^

I'm aware that your spoiler is from episode 8.. I didn't see it yet because either the subs weren't out when I went to bed or not sure if they're out now at this moment to see...
But reading your new spoiler... I see why episode 8 was 29.6

Episode 8 was the best one so far. I'm not annoyed with the family anymore, everyone redeemed themselves and Kii is still too cute. The opening scene was funny, Urara looks really pretty with her hair tied back. The grandpa scene was touching, but I kept looking at the snot instead of feeling sad. The ending. Wow. I don't know what you can say after hearing Mita's story. Her mother is messed up and her life.....I want more.
Ok well since someone just posted (I originally edited my last comment) I'm just gonna cut/paste (I didn't wanna double-post)
Ok I saw episode 8 and wow.... it actually made me have my opinions about the plotholes you two mentioned.
I gotta stop typing...... over my brother's and nieces are seriously all in my face -____- But I really do wonder what to expect for the next last eppys! And since there's no previews (which I think is an excellent decision... they want the audience to discover more and more about Mita as the story progress.. and probably want people to discuss about it like we are. Like I thought it was interesting how some of the guesses of what she is was mentioned in this episode ^^) we can't really think what will happen in the next episodes and how the direction will go...[/spoiler]

Just finished ep8 and I have to say that it truly deserved such a high rating. it was just so great from very first minute till the last.
even though I still keep my thoughts about plot holes and see it as writer's failure for writing Mita like this, I found her story to be is so heart breaking and so sad. I had tears in my eyes as she was telling her son's story. and I loved how she showed those emotions in that time.
now I have a crazy shipping of Mita and the dad.
there was nothing to be annoyed this week. every scene was better than before.
ps, urura/Mita's role reversal was just hilarious. I had to repeat it 2-3 time because I missed watching happy go lucky Nanako I knew from her old dramas.

you think? some how I always sensed a very subtle sort of chemistry, tension, attraction, awareness ...between the two. from very first ep. and when she goes, adjusting his tie, sewing his pocket...I go "awwww"yanie wrote:How come? There's no chemistry at all between them.Issy wrote:now I have a crazy shipping of Mita and the dad.
But I like the father again now. I liked him in the beginning, starting Ep3-4 I disliked him because he seem like a jerk. But, somehow I like him again now
It could be my imagination running wild.
as for the dad, I could never hate him. even when he was acting as a jerk. I guess I have some sort of soft spot for Hiroki Hasegawa from "Second Virgin"
*high-five with Issy* Had soft spot for him since Kaseifu Ep1 and liked him more since I watched Suzuki-sensei (love him so much there!).Issy wrote:as for the dad, I could never hate him. even when he was acting as a jerk.

Am so happy he'll be in 2 dramas next season, "Seinaru"(medical mystery) and "Unmei no Hito", yay!
I don't see any chemistry, but won't mind a happy ending for Mita and the father

Cutting onions without tearing isn't magic it appears.
How to prevent your eyes from watering when cutting onions
The most effective way is to run the onion under water before cutting it. So peel the onion and run it under water before you chop it.
Use a sharp knife (sharp knife cuts the onion cells cleanly and hence less juice is released from the Onion)
Use salt or bread crump on the knife.
Put the onions in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before cutting them
How about when she was beaten till she bleed? She showed no sign of feeling pain. When she hold the burned box, which was suppose to be hot?
I kinda agree with what minah said, though. Perhaps, everything are just symbols^^
Anyway, Issy, if you want to continue with the Hasegawa Hiroki topic, let's discuss it here: http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/viewtopic_101916.htm

Seirin really brings up a good point with Mita and the misleading part because I definitely agree with that too.
@Yanie There was the time when she grabbed something really hot and had no reaction (and actually no marks on hands......? Now that, may definitely be a flaw in the script because that would totally make her non-human) but I think other than that.... I just get take it as a sense of how feelingless she is (and back then the mystery as to why she was...)

About the cold hands issue. It's not really a big health issue. I wouldn't publicize it myself unless people ask about it. It's just the body being unable to maintain the temperature. I'm pretty healthy but I'm deathly afraid of cold, so I usually dress warmly. I find it difficult to keep warm. My hands and feet get cold but I mostly feel it in my hands. I used to work as an usher checking tickets. The a/c is on so the area is cool. But my hands felt like it was in the freezer. I had to keep rubbing my hands to keep it active so my fingers won't get frozen.Issy wrote:
The way they write Mita who cuts onions without crying just proves how good a cook she is. She knows everything a pro should know.
About her not feeling pain when being hit and stuff. You are right. She probably doesn't care so she doesn't show the pain. It seems after the hardships and trauma of her life, she doesn't want to be involved with emotions anymore. She needs to see a shrink.
About her learning how to be such a good housekeeper. I still think she learned it from the housekeeper. She seems to close to the housekeeper since her mom is such a **** and the housekeeper seems to genuinely care about her.
Regarding the magic bag though. I want one of those!!!

My Grandmother was able to do this.seirin wrote: Cutting onions without tearing isn't magic it appears.
Her Rubic's Cube skills and Basketball skills are also not so far feteched:
Let's say, Mita is about the age, as the actress playing her is (it's often like that in Japanese productions), that would make her a person beeing born in 1973. The Rubic's Cube was something that came out in 1980, and was popular during the whole 80's. So it would've been simply something, she might have enjoyed in her childhood/while beeing in school. She might be just a talented "sports person", maybe she was even in the Basketball club. (she is quite tall for a Japanese woman, so...) That would explain her beeing Michaela Jorden. [ ;) ]
I don't thing of all these things as plotholes. They are simply not explained because they're not that important. It's realistic for a person to be able to do all that, it's not that unrealistic. And, think about it, she even told us
Regarding Episode 8:
Yep, that thought came to my mind too. I also liked, how they established the beginning of the relationship between Mita and her "boss". I always wondered, how these two met.noshadow31 wrote:ep8 is truly brilliant! I wonder if the writer is a Murakami Haruki fan though.
Reading all the comments/discussion on ep8, i think no one has brought up that
"Kaseifu no Mita" Fun Facts:
-Matsushima Nanako received the role offer since 3 years ago, and she immediately accepted once she saw the title.
-Among the kids, Yui's role was immediately offered to Shiori Kutsuna and decided. The other 3 kids were selected with audition. Yukawa Kazuhiko, the scriptwriter saw her in Pocky CM and immediately thought she'd be perfect as the eldest daughter.
-The Asuda siblings composition and order, are exactly the same as Yukawa's siblings composition. Yukawa is the 3rd child of 4 siblings, 2nd son. "The eldest daughter and eldest son are reliable, while the youngest child is spoiled. This makes the 3rd child forgettable. From my experience, the 3rd child would feel the need to appeal himself 'I'm this kind of person' in some way. For Kaito, it was "I'll enter a private middle school!".
-There were suggestions that it might be more interesting to make Mita comes from one family to another family, different families each episode. But Yukawa insisted Mita should stick with 1 family for the whole drama. That way, he could dig the family's matter deeper and reveal the characters one by one. Having Mita work from one family to another, would be too shallow.
More rumors about Kaseifu movie:
-The movie has been decided since early Nov.
-The movie will premiere in summer next year.
-It will be a continuation of the drama's plot, but Mita will be working at a different family in the movie. A politician's family.
-Rumored cast are Nishida Toshiyuki, Sato Koichi, Kagawa Teruyuki, Ayase Haruka, Ishihara Satomi, and Ashida Mana.

Sorry
I am one of those who choose jdoramas to watch depending of rating and prize winning
and inspite of the fact it is only 8 episodes , But I am sorry , this is overrated Jdorama
I downloaded all 8 episodes , watched them in 2 day
Man , it is 29.6 !!!!!!! I expected a masterpiece not a merely good drama with 2 excellent scenes
anyway , it is recommended jdorama , but never to be a life-altering one
if someone think Matsushima Nanako is excellent in this , so what about Amami Yuki / Maya sensai in Queen's classroom ?
please , give me your comments , am I exaggerating ?

I don't know how do I feel about "overrated" term here but I have to admit that I got shocked to see it peaks in rating. I mean it is not something exceptionally great with no flaws. It is a good decent drama though. One of those keeps you waiting to see what happens next. Maybe that's the reason all of us on this thread like it. Because we have been watching it week by week and not all of 8 eps in two days. Maybe if I watch it this way, I will have the same thoughts.
As for me personally, I never thought of Nanako's performance as Mita anything great. I could not because she is way too robotic here and you don't really give a robot a best actor award as there is no display of emotions. Maybe you could give her a best robot award But I was totally taken by that less than a minute scene of hers when she talked about her son. Her whole emotions were there. Yuki ( I love her by the way) and Nanako are two different actors in so many levels but somehow I see Nansko who fits this character more.
I agree with you on the fact that Hiroki Hasegawa performance is very good and convencing here. At first, I could not see him in such role but he totally gives all sort of vibes of a loser, hopeless and weak character. And they way he is changing by recent eps is another sign of his good acting. Acting as a nice guy is easy in comparison to bad guy ( ok, he is not that bad here).
As for Kii, although she is very cute but I won't call her acting great ( comparing with lots of kids actors I have seen in her age and some of them totally left me speechless). Her acting in 1st ep was very forced. And got annoyed with the way she kept asking "....nani?" it was not very natural. I will stop here because I kind of feel ashamed about not talking very good about a little girl's acting.

I agree with Issy. I, too, am shocked to see the ratings really go this high (esp the fact it's airing in the same season as Kimura's drama and people automatically expect super high ratings for that show) Is anyone's acting the best in the world? I really don't think so but lie Issy points out taking the cast individually it's good acting compare to their other roles (like Hiroki because I really thought he was a bit... eh... to be in this role but he does play a clueless father just fine ^^;;; But his character I think get a bit too much into clueless father like really seeing him read a book about how to love his child as a father) Aibu fits this role just fine because she's annoying to start off with lol. But I think I prefer her clumsy than like in Buzzer Beat or Zettai Kareshi. And even though Nanako is very robotic in this show, I think it's her character that attracts people (esp on this thread) and I think it's the whole story altogether that draws people in. It's not the best thing out there but I think it's certainly enjoyable and has a mixed of weirdness, comedy (Urara moments are very funny and so are those 3 kids who like to follow Mita around), philosophy, and issues that are being addressed that surely exist out there (parents who don't love their kids in that natural kinda way and actually admitting to it) There are shows that has these elements too but I dunno I guess the way it's portrayed & done (this is when script, filming & editing comes into play) it's really good.
But episode 8, I think, deserved that rating... and not even just because of Nanako's performance. It was finally the revealing of her past (and the start of the climax of the show that was getting higher ratings every time) and a bold time to see Mita showing emotions (so her character itself was also being surprising and just goes more with the story and people being touched by it)
Thanks for the spoilers Yanie!
