Hooked from the first episode. Politics as I would like to see it.
Too often politics at any level is about what the political machine wants rather than the people.
This show reminds us of that fact and what would happen if our needs were considered.
Love the mother - women angle, how the mothers of future leaders were not always considered even though their roles were so important. If they were happy and fulfilled, the family would have a better chance of being stable.
Enjoyed the acting very much.
Looking forward to watching the rest of the episodes to see how the story unfolds as politics always corrupts, so it will be interesting to see how that is overcome.
Very enjoyable.
Update: The episodes continue to be very good, dealing with social issues and surprising solutions. Really happy that I found this show. Right through to the end it continues to entertain while providing ethical, positive outcomes.
Appreciate the support acting by various cast members - Takahashi Issei, Yuriko Ishida, Tanaka Kei. And of course the opposition lead role well played out by Furuta Arata.
