SIMPLY THE BEST

Perfect chemistry between the two main actors. Extremely entertaining and appealed to all my emotions. I especially love how the first scene ties to the last scene
Amusing, if contrived

Satorare is founded on the improbable concept that the main character, a perceptive doctor, is a satorare - his inner voice is so loud that everyone can hear him. For some reason, the people at work and at home are too sensitive to let him know of his problem - an ability that purportedly affects one of every ten mission people. The main entertainment derives from everyone knowing his thoughts are being heard - except him.
The concept is thin, but it's also unusually entertaining - a story about eavesdropping, in reverse. You're more than willing to forgive the story's basic improbability so that you can enjoy the comic consequences. Best of all, the casting and performances are spot-on, and the script deftly written.
