Omiya (2002)

A historical drama which can drawn the viewer in without a flashy sword fight.

I started watching Omiya (NHK, 2002) during it's re-run.

Omiya is a work by Yumie Hiraiwa, and the
main character is Omiya played by Reiko Takashima.
Unhappiness attacks this Miya one after another.
The beginning of bad luck was to marry into a samurai's house.
Abused by the mother-in-law, the husband passes away,
Her child torn from her, and being misunderstood by her loved one ... Even her
younger brother Shinnosuke is dying.
(Not only Omiya, but Omiya's parents' house itself is too unlucky ...)

Koji Yamamoto plays this Shinnosuke.
Still a naive young man, but after
all the frustrations and impatience peculiar to young people are well brought out!

Another one of the top Performers is Taro Yamamoto who played Harada Sanosuke.
It's a role where the character is smitten with Omiya, but
also a naive good young man.

Ryunosuke Kamiki, who plays Omiya's son Seiichiro , leaves a strong impression. Ryunosuke-kun was also selected as a child in the taiga drama "Yoshitsune" three years later, but it was because of
this brilliant performance in Omiya.

Also, as can be said for "Omiya" and "Inemuri Monzo", "Kagero
no Tsuji 2" expresses the subtleties of human relationships well,
and you will be drawn in without a flashy sword fight. ..
