As everyone says, this is why Nanako is superb. She is just a brilliant actress, and a total natural. She makes a meaningful story real. Without a convincing performance as Nanako's, the strong message that the story holds would have been lost. Nanako passed down the story throughout the generations as she played each woman. She is such a credible actress, a total star. She needs to keep doing what she does, because she is just incredible.

While this drama was pretty short compared to others, the story developed and overlapped well. It was enjoyable to watch this drama and learn more about Japanese history and culture of the past. None of the dramas I've seen have dealt with this time period. One thing's for sure, this is not your ordinary drama. One of the stories however lagged from the rest which brings this down to I would say 8.

Pretty touching drama, it was very confusing between the connection between the second and third story, but the first story was my favourite. It also teaches you a little about japanese history and shows how the times have changes through the decades.
A touching love story

No matter what this is kinda confusing at between the second and third generation, but as one can see it all leads to a point again. Love is a full circle in life. Get show to watch with your Japanese girlfriend or any girlfriend who likes japanese drama.
I enjoyed the 3 stories
