[Dorama / Movie Review] Jiken Kyumeii ~ IMAT no Kiseki ~ 1

Today I’m going to write a review about a Japanese movie. The title is Jiken Kyumeii ~IMAT no Kiseki~, and for now, I’m going to write a review about the movie 1 only which was aired on 2013 (there is already 2 movies available out there, and it’s still to be continued).

A long time ago, a bomb exploded in the Tokyo Sky Land which caused the death of two different boys’ father. The two boys were Hyuga Akira (played by Tamaki Hiroshi), who is currently working as a member of IMAT (Incident Medical Assistance Team, a medical team who helps wounded people in an incident), and Kageura Takuma (played by Tanaka Kei), who is currently a SIT (Special Investigation Team of Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department) member. One day, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department held a joint training between IMAT and SIT members, and that was the first time Hyuga met Kageura. They seemed to grow up in a different personality after the bombing incident, but are they really different? Several days later, a real incident happened and they must working together for the first time. That’s where the journey starts.

Recently, I love this genre of dorama/movie, medical, detective/police, mystery, genres that makes you thrill or anxious. The collaboration between medical and police story is quite fascinating, as it’s rare to be found. Well, I can’t give a lot of comments for this movie, but this movie is really worth to watch! And as it’s only a movie, you don’t have to spend a lot of time watching. So, for those who is currently busy, you can spare just 2 hours of your time to be excited with the movie!

I give 9 out of 10 points for Jiken Kyumeii ~IMAT no Kiseki~ movie 1.

[Dorama Review] 1 Litre no Namida / 1 Litre of Tears

Several years ago, this dorama was soooo popular. However, some of you might haven’t watched this dorama yet, so I’ll give a little bit review about this dorama, 1 Litre no Namida or also known as 1 Litre of Tears, which was aired on 2005.

The dorama I’m going to review is more to a family-genre-dorama, even though there’s also some romance inside it. This dorama is made based on a real story, a diary written by Aya, a girl who suffered Spinocerebellar Ataxia, a rare inherited neurological disease, which degenerate a certain part of brain, Cerebellum. It is said that this disease is cruel since it takes someone’s motoric function to the point where they can’t walk, speak, write, or eat, but it doesn’t take their consciousness. Until now, there’s no treatment known to cure this disease. Rehabilitation can help to minimize the growth of this disease.

The story starts when a-fifteen-year-old-girl Ikeuchi Aya (played by Sawajiri Erika) is going to be a senior high school student. Aya is an ordinary girl, a daughter of a tofu shop. Lately, there was something strange happened to Aya: had no reflect, fell down often, etc. Her mother, Ikeuchi Shioka (played by Yakushimaru Hiroko) realized that there was something wrong with her daughter. After Aya fell down, instead of only taking care of her wound, her mom took her for a medical checkup, and that was the beginning of this cruel-sad story until her death came on 25 years old.

In my opinion, the way this dorama taken is just ordinary, but the story of this dorama is motivating us to live our life to the fullest. When some of us is depressed with study, work, money, or love and wants to end our life, there is a lot of people who suffered incurable disease but fighting hard to live their life. Life can be fun, if you really want to. Don’t only focus on what you don’t have but be grateful with what you have while still moving forward for a better tomorrow.

Another message I could get from this dorama is family. Without the support of her family, I don’t think Aya could live her life to the fullest. Aya's family is not a rich family but a very supportive family, especially her parents. Well, if you don’t have a supportive family, you could just make one and be the one someday…^^

I recommend this dorama for all people over the world so they could be more grateful about being alive. I gave 8 out of 10 points for this dorama. There is also SP episode which was aired on 2007, but I don’t find anything special inside it as the episode only shows how the condition is half a year after Aya’s death.
