Let's Think!

I was looking for a perfect drama that could introduce me to Japanese dramas. The one that wouldn't disappoint me and make the first impression a bad one. And certainly, after reading through a "2019 wrap up" article (thanks to the one who wrote it) I found - Mr Hiiragi's Homeroom, and it couldn't have been more perfect.

It was something unusual and different from what I was used to. And much more dramatic, like very dramatic at some points (for real)
The initial episodes were confusing, I was trying to wrap my mind around everything that was happening. The plot was building up and so was the mystery around it that I couldn't help but be curious about everything. I wanted to know the conclusion of it all. Why did he take his students as hostages? What is the point behind it? What are his reasons? And will the answers justify everything? Or will it be a disappointment at the end. And even though the cast overall acted brilliantly, the initial episodes seemed a bit heavy on drama, sometimes forced even, and less convincing to me for some reasons. But gradually the plot strengthened, it kept me on edge till the very end. And somehow with time it only got better and better in terms of both the plot and the characterization. There was a development with each episode. It was really emotional to see the students who were so adamant, stubborn and rebellious transforming into someone who was wise and considerate.

I thought Hiiragi was going too far with his motives, but now that I think about it, his roughness was instrumental in bringing about such a drastic change in his students. It all made sense!
The story became too good towards the end (the final episodes are my favourite)
The acting became less dramatic and more genuine with time.

The constant appeal made by Hiiragi, the emphasis on "thinking carefully" and "change". The way he promised his students that they will know his reasons made me believe in him and hold onto him. His signature phrase "Let's think!" may sound a bit lame at the beginning, but in the end one realizes its importance and symbolism.

Masaki Suda is a brilliant actor. He has acted so amazingly in the drama that I almost wish to have a sensei like him. His acting is a gem. I couldn't stop watching. He even received an award for best actor for this and it is well deserved. Nagano Mei was so cute and cheerful but also nailed the emotional scenes!

It's not a perfectly crafted drama, it definitely lacks at some places. The editing is off and not the bestest, but despite everything, the message that Hiiragi wants to convey to his students is something so important and something that people tend to overlook in present time. And for that, to know his reasons and the conclusions, it is a MUST watch. Because once you reach the point where finally you'll get your answers, you'll feel that it was worth it after all.

The drama is much more than what it really seems. It is more than a crime thriller. Even after a few days of finishing it, I can still feel the impact of Hiiragi's words. So do give it a try!
