I didn’t find 1 litre of tears to be all that much better either. It dragged on a bit too much for my liking but it still made me cry. Fuck I cry all the time when watching drama’s though so it isn’t that big of a deal.

sekai no chuushin de was a pretty well done sickly drama i think but I hated the female actress.

that sounds awful… i actually enjoy watching sickness dramas for some reason (like sekai no chuushin de) but then when i was watching the episodes of this one it felt like the developement of the series was getting weird. we were dealing with too many elements i think. you were dealing with too many stories it kind of lost focus and since japanese dramas are short everything had to be done in the last episode. the series barely even made me cry. what is the point of watching a drama about someone you know that is dying but is unable to make you cry. i dont credit it to poor acting though i think the acting was mediocre but really poor directing. and probably the story writer as well wanting to put as many elements into the story as possible.
