Fathers

The first installment of sort of a melancholic and understatedly punchy multi-part tale by Okada Yoshikazu. Tamura Masakazu and Matsu Takako both did a very good job. The second installment felt weaker than the first, but then again it has a story that blends the present with the past in a fast-paced way, and this installment shows how a father's dream can become a daughter's and vice versa. Their dreams became so intertwined that in the end they couldn't wish each other any other happiness. Rating other episodes after watching. (2017-03-22)
