#200

“When creatures that cannot live together with humans are ejected from human society, ‘well, that’s life’ is what we would say. We’d say that this must be a job done by someone.”

I haven’t had a drama make me feel this kind of melancholy (in a good way) since Misaeng; you feel it in the first scene when an animal control employee wakes up after having yet another nightmare about dogs speaking to him, and when a vet scolds her mother for feeding stray cats and contributing to her work. It was a good special and if you’re anything like me, you might shed some tears in the first 20 minutes or so. Unlike Misaeng, Kono Machi no Inochi ni peaked and didn’t go anywhere towards the end even though it has all the elements of a worthwhile drama. Still recommended though, especially for anyone who may want to see Kase Ryo and Toda Erika in a drama again.

And as the title suggests, this is my 200th drama!! 🎉 I should do something to celebrate, lol.
