Akai Ito Afterthoughts


Akai Ito drama series has finally finished....

The whole drama with its roller coaster of emotions has left me reeling from aniticpation, joy, anger, shock, sorrow, compassion and finally, happiness. Each episode generally has a message to communicate and it was mostly delivered in an apt manner through the well picked cast.

The whole season had seen us rooting for Nishino tortured soul, cheering for Mei's "destined" love wih Nishino, enraged by Mei's abuse by Taka, sadden by the misunderstandings of sara, insecurities of Taka, shocked by the sudden death, annoyed by Mami's over reliance, gladness over Taka's final act of maturity and finally, contentment with the union of the two lovebirds after all the life's tribulation.

It's not just a drama. Its a story about life, reminding us such true incidents that can or are occurring around us all the time. The cast had done well without over acting.

I am glad its a happy ending for this series. It's one of the few drama that I do not crave for more seasons and am truly satisfied with the wrapping. I hope it is left as it is. Anything more would be draggy and anything less would have been falling short of goodness.
