| 2. | Comments by catcat [Rating: 8/10] a japanese drama for the whole family. talks about 6 brothers and sisters who were separated for 7 years going through good and bad times just to get back together. |
| 3. | Comments by marzyu [Rating: 5/10] This wuz also one of the boring dramaz on my list! It's realli laggy and dun realli have a plot at all! I know this story wuz all about a family and troubls they've go through . . . but if there wuzn't a second one to back it up, u'll think the ending sux and probably the drama dat u've wasted u're money on! If I were u, I wouldn't waste my time watchign this is just go to the second one! If u watch it, u'll eventually catch on . . . hope my opions helped!? |
| 4. | Comments by pandora [Rating: 10/10] Helarious!!! I reccoment this to everyone. It is a must see. one of the best dorama's I have ever seen. the best performance by Eguchi as well. |
| 5. | Comments by jdfan [Rating: 10/10] Another drama to weep buckets on. The difference from Heaven's Coins is this drama emphasizes on family's value. Eguchi is perfect as Tatsuya, always the big brother who takes care of everything when he's actually as confused as everyone. It's overall a heart-warming drama and not to forget that the two series got the highest rating among all 90s drama. Great cast and good performances. That why this series became a classic. An interesting story line based on family bond between brothers and sisters. |
| 6. | Comments by ct_subang [Rating: 6/10] another family drama with lotsa super stars initgreat performance fr everyone..entertaining.. |
| 7. | Comments by biga816 [Rating: 10/10] A classic....one of the best...very heartfelt. |
| 8. | Comments by amethyst [Rating: 7/10] Shows the struggle of 5 orphaned siblings. Touching. |
| 9. | Comments by Michi [Rating: 8/10] Nice family drama. About the eldest bro gathers the siblings and they live together.. They face life's ups and downs together~! |
| 10. | Comments by dnie [Rating: 9/10] The strength of under one roof perhaps mainly falls under the hands of its actor, and the script. It tells about a brother who wants
to live with his siblings after their parents died. The prob is, all of em are seperated to be taken care by someone, and one of em is adopted.I thought i was gonna see a happy ending for this family but the troubles
come tragically(the youngest is disabled, one got involved with gangsterism,one was raped) sheesh.. if i were the head of the family, i wd stumble but he(Eguchi Yousuke) keeps goin through. A good story to watch! |
| 11. | Comments by ketsune [Rating: 6/10] okaylah~~~ but the songs r so nice especially the opening theme |
| 12. | Comments by iluvhyde [Rating: 10/10] Best! Grew to love Masha (Fukuyama) and J-stuff because of this show! Very very nice and touching. |
| 13. | Comments by madol [Rating: 9/10] The very first drama I watched. No other dramas can beat the excitement feeling of first drama. I wanna say it's the best =) |
| 14. | Comments by N|sz^^aYa [Rating: 8/10] Great! |
| 15. | Comments by Akakage [Rating: 8/10] Touching. What a great cast! Yosuke Eguchi, Fukuyama Masaharu and Noriko Sakai had delievered a superb performance. However I gave most of the credit to Yosuke..he is so great as the big Aniki in the family and raising his brother and sister all by himself. A very good drama with a great family value |
| 16. | Comments by ac_milanmania [Rating: 10/10] This is the kind of dorama that u remember for a very very long time after watching it. good story, superb cast, perfect song. |
| 17. | Comments by jade_sylvia [Rating: 10/10] This is a great show about family relationships. It has everything: love, laughter, heartache! I highly recommend it! |
| 18. | Comments by Hee Hee Hee [Rating: 6/10] touchin |
| 19. | Comments by atheon [Rating: 10/10] The best family drama I've ever seen. Love all the actors, especially fukuyama and noriko. |
| 20. | Comments by dummyuser2 [Rating: 10/10] This series is among my all-time favorites. It is a very warm, and inspirational series. All the characters are very good people. And, when bad things go wrong for each of them, you really feel for them. Sakai Noriko really made her mark in jdoramas with this series. |
| 21. | Comments by Silvermist [Rating: 10/10] I have watched the drama once, went on the read the book, and watch it again twice after that. Cries everytime when I watch this, even when reading the book. One of the best script written. |
| 22. | Comments by chipolata [Rating: 9/10] Unforgetable dorama!!
I watched it thousand times, cry for Koyuki, laugh for Kazuya, like Anchan (Tatsuya) and love Shini-chan (Masaya, Fukuyama Mashaharu).. think it was my first love :p |
| 23. | Comments by aruthberry [Rating: 10/10] Very touching. T - T |
| 24. | Comments by Yuki0212 [Rating: 8/10] Touching and good drama. |
| 25. | Comments by heimu [Rating: 10/10] I last watched this dorama like 6 years ago, everything is so feint to me, but I definately enjoyed it then. The first family style dorama I ever watched and as you can browse around this site, many follow suit. |
| 26. | Comments by Lantizh [Rating: 8/10] It's a good drama. Funny at times and tear-jearking too. Was a bit disappointed with the ending though. I just now found out there's a part 2 so I'll be looking for it. |
| 27. | Comments by yolande [Rating: 8/10] i'm a sucker for doramas on family relationship, to tell the truth. very moving plot. and the acting from most of the actors were pretty good. |
| 28. | Comments by PinkSpider [Rating: 9/10] must watched |
| 29. | Comments by hmm [Rating: 10/10] Nice and warming drama... Like the characther act by Yosuke Eguchi.. A good and caring brother... and he is funny too~ |
| 30. | Comments by DragonSpirit164 [Rating: 9/10] Now I see why this is acclaimed to be the granddaddy of all family dramas. A highly enjoyable show with many good storylines. Eguchi Yosuke plays the highly emotional big brother well, one moment he's laughing hysterically and the next he's crying his eyes out.. I loved the scene where he strangles the lady thinking that she kidnapped his younger brother...hilarity. This show has provided the inspiration for newer ones such as Hotman. Great acting by the cast, intriguing storyline. Highly recommended!!~ |
| 31. | Comments by freak_of_psycho [Rating: 7/10] Family oriented drama... very touching. |
| 32. | Comments by yijing [Rating: 6/10] watched this a long time ago...can't recall the exact plot already. but i remember crying badly over it despite not understanding it. |
| 33. | Comments by fuku_girl [Rating: 10/10] Definitely one of the best I've seen so far.. It's a very sweet story about family - I love the whole with Tatsuya-Koyuki-Masaya!! I love Fukuyama-sama!! He rocks!! |
| 34. | Comments by nai_yve [Rating: 7/10] A brilliant family drama - entertaining stuff! |
| 35. | Comments by jjpsychic2 [Rating: 10/10] this drama is definitely a top 5 material.. the characters and the story are done well. There are laughing scenes, sad scenes, relaxing ones.. it just makes it into a complete well-done drama. |
| 36. | Comments by v1olet [Rating: 10/10] a heartwarming family drama. if i may say, this is the best family drama ever. |
| 37. | Comments by enen_shun [Rating: 9/10] wow ~~ this show was shown on tv when i was very young ... i think when i was 9 or 10 yrs old ('96 or '97) ... haha ~~ i don't really remember the scenes now ... but i do remember the characters ... liked the big brother the most ... the way he nags and cares a lot for his siblings ~~ i remembered i've cried before for this drama ~~ it'll be weird if u're a jdorama fan , and u've not watched this show b4 .... kekez .. |

| 41. | Comments by fahsum [Rating: 10/10] My all-time fave jdorama! It was the first jdorama I watched! A very good family drama, although the ending seemed abrupt and incomplete. If you watch this, you gotta watch the sequel which totally finishes off the ending of this series. |

| 45. | Comments by Char [Rating: 9/10] I don't remember a thing from this except how...Yosuke was a jogger...and Noriko was uber cute / beautiful. So long ago, the themesong is what's most memorable |
| 46. | Comments by IniQx [Rating: 9/10] Was a hit back then. Somehow this drama started the trend of family & kinship themed dramas |
| 47. | Comments by von [Rating: 7/10] Heart warming family drama. |

| 49. | Comments by pcmodem [Rating: 8/10] Pretty darn good, but weak final episode (#12) that didn't really wrap up the series. |
| 50. | Comments by Ruth~route [Rating: 10/10] Very touching! |
| 51. | Comments by juuan [Rating: 8/10] The one which epitomes what family jdorama is about. |
| 52. | Comments by akagi_nami [Rating: 10/10] Wasurarenai dorama.. |
| 53. | Comments by pumpkin puff [Rating: 10/10] How could you not want to watch this drama? The love between the brothers and sister is so touching, not to mention the plot is so unpredictable. The light humor from Tatsuya's foolish lectures is so entertaining. ANNDD... Sakai Noriko and Fukuyama Masaharu are in this series! |
| 54. | Comments by owllo [Rating: 10/10] One of my favourites. |
| 55. | Comments by ReD [Rating: 10/10] BEST BAGI AKU (Family Story)(sbb berjaya menitiskan ayermata ku)..........MUZIK VALLEY SG.BULOH |
| 56. | Comments by Wisteria [Rating: 7/10] A good, solid storyline and great acting, you can empathise with the characters through their highs and lows. Eguchi Yosuke (Kashiwagi Tatsuya) is really good as the older brother who is trying to make the whole family situation work - and he does have his work cut out for him. |
| 57. | Comments by teru_teru_bouzu [Rating: 8/10] After the parents of these 6 kids died in an accident, they were split off into differnt foster care homes. The eldest decideds to reunite then and thus begins the story of the relationship and the bonds between the family memebers. |
| 58. | Comments by flylice [Rating: 10/10] Touching, heart warming family entertainment....cried a bunch of times....aniki is the best elder brother! |
| 59. | Comments by HimuraGirl [Rating: 9/10] I enjoy watching a family dorama like this one!! The casts are also great, appropriate for their roles ^_^ |

| 62. | Comments by wanderingfish7 [Rating: 7/10] I watched it long time back. It is a touching series talking about family. |
| 63. | Comments by norz [Rating: 8/10] Nice family drama.. like the more recent one Hotman.. big brother taking care of his siblings |
| 64. | Comments by ume [Rating: 8/10] Great family drama. Teaches us the kind of support we should always offer each other. Very nice and warming. And love Noriko Sakai, she is gorgeous. Also Fukuyama is quite cute in his younger days...though I am very against the oldest brother. But anyways, GREAT PLOT. |
| 65. | Comments by sho_sakurai [Rating: 7/10] very touching.... |

| 74. | Comments by Amano_Tsukiko [Rating: 6/10] Ironic. Time and again, it's the Elder Brother who have the potential to tear the family apart. His communication skill is horrible. To keep it short, Engine fared better. |
