tRust Netflix does not make a big fuss about ASURA. The lack of fanfare in the series, which was quietly released in early January, is really puzzled. This was previously a luxurious Makanai: Director of the Japanese director who cooked for My Cohaus for a streamer, and was nominated for the 2018 Majestic Film SHOPLIFTERS Oscar. You may think that these qualifications may have pushed this a little. Instead, we have to rely on word -of -mouth, so this is: this is a great TV series, and it is a criminal to pass it over you.
Asla is the indication of Prince Mukoda's novel, which has changed to a popular Japanese television series in 1979. In reconsideration of Cola, the four sisters of Takezawa represent visions and versions of different femininity and femininity during this period. Takagi (Yûaoi) is a civil servant and works in a library. He's the youngest sister, SAKIKO (SUZU HIROSE) -Wattleless with a dead boxer for boyfriends is gorgeous. Some of them are the most interesting scenes of the show, they are often in their throat. The oldest sister tsunami (Miyazawa RI) is a widow along with an adult son and place flowers in local restaurants, but Makiko is a housewife and two teenage mothers. Yes, it is the center of the bonds of these female companies.
Despite being constantly discarded between Takiko and Sakiko, the sisters are solid units. Starting with a phone call from Takiko, encourages all of them to gather so that she can share some important news. They suspect that she might eventually get married, but the big obvious thing is more explosive. She found her elderly father (Kunimura) with her elderly woman (Kunimura JUN), another woman, and a small boy calling her father “dad”. There is evidence in the form of a secret photo taken by a private detective hired to follow him. How should they treat this revelation, and what illuminates their own life?
There are 7 hours of episodes, each of which is as beautiful as the last episode. It is a kind of show that is surprisingly photographed and you want to stay in every detail. In the case of a Japanese speaker like me, it encourages the second clock and encourages the delicate moment that you might have missed when reading subtitles. Sisters express their personality through clothes, homes, food, and how they eat. And there are many foods here. This is not a series that should be seen when far away. The food is ritual, deepens the bond, is a plot driver, and focuses. There are infinite platters of Fuji apple (for mothers and Fuji), rice cakes, cabbage pickles, and sushi. Food is tasty and shared. I was not asleep to devour everything on the screen.
Like food, the phone is also focused. The drama starts with Takiko's phone call and summons her sisters, which is set in the late 1970s, so the phone is a dramatic institution. Suspicion to form a deep roots. The first call for his father's big secrets may have been played for tragedy, but it is not important here, and the light of sisters about it is zigzag between shock and entertainment. It suggests a cautious balance. Comedy and tragedy. The sense of humor is consistent even at dark moments. It's much more laughing than I had expected, and as a result, it was much more impressive when the chips went down.
This is all proof of how much ASURA cares about sisters, and how fast it is. In 1979, men's behavior is difficult for women to confront. But they quietly question it and clarify the hidden truth about their own moral compass. There are problems, difficult relationships, imagined affairs, and true relationships. Following the news of his father and the fifth brothers' potential news, a letter was posted in the newspaper, explaining an overview of his family's troubles. The sister suspects that one of them has written it, but the author remains mysterious. This letter is the driving force behind the series. “Are you really happy for women like us to live without making waves?”
Takeshita's sisters make some big waves, some waves, and several large waves before starting to collect the confusion at the moment and then start again. Asura is full of heart, full of joy, and is a surprising, empathy drama that worthwhile much more attention than given so far.
