An incident is talked about all over Japan. The case involves the Doizaki couple that killed their 15-year-old daughter and hid her body under their house for 16 years. One day, housewife Toshiko Hagitani visits Shigeko Maehata who works for a small editing company. Toshiko tells Shigeko that her 12-year-old son Hitoshi might have a special ability to see other people's memories. She pulls out a picture drawn by Hitoshi. The picture has a girl with a grey colored face lying in a house that has a bat shaped weather vane on its roof. The picture seems to depict the incident involving the Doizaki couple. Shigeko decides to do some research, but Hitoshi dies in a car accident. Meanwhile, the attorney for the Doizaki couple tells their second daughter Seiko that the couple has cut off all ties with her. Around that time, a female high student is confined. Edit Translation

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]

"Unless you sacrifice someone, you won't be able to achieve happiness."

Shady until the very end. I can say nothing. This dorama is very good for me (well, I don't know how with the other who didn't like the genre). You'll try to guess the bad one and the motive. Hmm ... so far the bad one can be guessed easily, but at the first you (at least me) can't find the connection with the main story easily. The motive not too clear, and the closure is quite flat. Well, I love the clear ending after all (^_^;)

(Warning : bloody scene exist!)

It has been a while since I’ve watched Nakama Yukie on a drama, although I don’t really follow her. Of course, I knew her from that phenomenal drama Gokusen.

This is a really great drama that will keep you on the edge of your seats. The portrayal of the characters is great and cringy.

I also have this thought “how come people doesn’t even change after getting out of prison?” because I thought that maybe when a convicted person got out of prison, they had change and I don’t know if I’m wrong.

Nakama Yukie is well known for her dramas and for those who isn’t even following her, this is one of her great works! You can also see the contrast between her character here and her character from Gokusen.
