i really loved this drama.. every episode made me cry right from the beginning.. nagase tomoya in his most memorable role ever as sakuraba yuichiro.. takeuchi yuko did a great great job.. protraying a very convincing sakura.. sweet and always there for yu-chan.. the banter between the family is interesting to see too.. timing of the scenes were perfect and that made the show go on really smoothly.. aiba was kakkoii to the right extent as takeyama ryo.. probably the role that i would like him best in.. and the rest of the family sugoi.. great casting.. i loved kaede and azusa and satsuki and tsutomu and everyone in the show..!!

I adore the show! Partly because the plot was very interesting and also because of the change in character in Sakurabara/Arai Yuichiro when he is working and at home.

This was the first dorama that I watched and it was sooooo good! I watched it all at once, I was so addicted! 10 hours straight! Nagase Tomoya is a great actor!

This was a great drama. The first dorama I watched by Tomoya Nagase. He did a great job as Sakuraba Yuuchiro. It's a very touching drama and yet there are many funny parts as well. Good drama - i recommend it.

Nagase Tomoya and Takeuchi Yuko were great. The rest of the cast was great too. The funny and emotional moments are timed perfectly. A very interesting story line.

I have watched and re-watched this drama many times. Good beginning good ending. Just a bit sad towards the middle and just before the ending. Be prepared to laugh a lot. Many touching scenes. Best performance from Nagase. Started to like him after watching this drama!

Tomoya is so cool as Yuichiro in the show and Yuko is brilliant too. They're such a loving couple in the show. Last but not least, that brilliant song 'Hitoribocchi No Haburashi'.
marveLlous and cOrnie shOw

Nagase is damn handsome, macho, kawaii, cute and lovely.
In this drama he have 2 different personality.
1- In front the media, he appear as a cool tough guy.
2-The real him, funny, crazy, and family man.
Humm... i prefer the 1st personality!! He look more macho than wearing that spectacle and that hair band? the thing on his head! It is so annoying.
Well i don't really think there is any extreme touching part that will make you cry. I think they just trying to exaggerate the part. I don't think there is anything sad at all.
And the funny part, some of it are cute but some are stupid. Trying to make something not funny, funny. More like a stupid joke.
But oh well, Nagase is a major hunk so i will still give 10/10 to this story. Afterall i love the theme song by Tokio!! Ne~

Mukodono! Very Funny!! Very sad!! Even enraging at times!! And so it's a real roller-coaster ride!! Its familyish, every character played their part well here!! Watch out for its theme song Hitoribotchi no Haburashi 'cause its mesmerising. Tomoya Nagase was mesmerising too with his mimical face and heart-touching character! He was so good that you might end up calling him Sakuraba Yuichiro instead!! Highly-recommended!!

mukodono's a really neat drama. if you've got time (and money) to spare, you oughta watch it. the chemistry between yuko & tomoya's really cute, they're both great actors. and you should see the transition of the ubercool tomoya to really funny (and corny) tomoya. ^_~
tomoya nagase's acting is way too brilliant!

Its funny, captivating and sad at the same time. Believe you me, you'll cry at almost every episode. At the end of it you'll cry tears of joy. The cast is fantastic and the chemistry is awesome. Tomoya's character is lovable.
heart warming comedy

Was looking forward to this show. And it indeed lived up to my expectations. Tomoya and Yuko were great. The whole story was very touching. U must watch this series@@!!

Wow! This is one of the best series I had ever watch! Very funny & touching at the same time. I never know that Tomoya can be so funny! And after watching this show, I start to like Yuko too. She is so sweet looking & natural in her acting. Looking forward to her new series with Tsuyoshi Domoto.
