will update when more info is released.

REALLY? Omg lots of cool things are coming out this fall!
i have yet to see Aiba's acting. it kinda suits this role ;P

Holy mini cooper, I just about had a heart attack. I thought it was going to be a Japanese adaptation of the K-drama.

No need for a K-drama adaptation. Japan has its own My Girl for that.

Aiba-chan finally as the lead actor! <3 It's about time!

I can't imagine him as a dad, though. But I know whoever is playing his child is going to have fun because I'm sure Aiba will keep him/her entertained.

i can't wait to see masaki act. but i love him when he works with animals. aaaaaaaa kawaii!

I can't wait! Based on his past (extremely hilarious) interactions with children, I wonder how this drama is going to turn out? An Aiba series yay! I wonder if Arashi will be singing the theme song?

Screen captures from episode 01:

WHAT?

So basically, when I fall out of the fandom, my favorite ARASHI member finally gets to star in his own drama. Just my luck.

But, I will still watch because this drama looks sooooo cuuuteee and because jdramas are my ultimate guilty pleasures. 8D

Aiba, geez, you look so adorable; it makes me want to fall back into the ARASHI fandom. Sorta. XD I've seen Ishii Momoka elsewhere... hmm, either way she's just spews cute. ajsdjfa;sdkf.

Holy crap, I have a lot of dramas to watch during winter break. xD I'm pretty sure this will be the first one I'll watch though... because come on, it's Aiba-chan. <3

wahh~~ thanks for posting~

I so want to watch it now ><" Aiba looks so awesome and the little girl looks so cuuuteee~~

I have a feeling that is going to be so UH*YR(@*#H heart touching = love it!

Just kidding! I lied. XD

I couldn't help myself so I watched the first episode despite my pile of work hehe. Aiba is so freaking lovable in this drama. I think he played his character very; I almost cried with him towards the end, but that's not saying too much since I cry very easily when I see someone else crying lol. Ishii Momoka is so precious! I love her scenes together with Aiba~ Ahh, love this drama so far.

LOL @ the Masamune - Koharu - day care guy (Murakami) scene!! XD

Muroi Shigeru plays Aiba's mom. o: Haha, I still only see her as Kiri-chan's (14 sai no haha) mom. She made such a lasting impression.

Has anyone watched this yet?

Screen captures from episode 03:

I just watched the first episode, it's soooooo touching!!
The little girl is such an awesome actress, I literally squealed everytime she talked cause it was too darn adorable!

i just finished ep 01 and im moving to ep 02. I must say it is a touching drama. Masamune (Aiba Masaki) seems like a gentle person and his daughter Koharu is the sweetest thing ever! She's quite cute and I think she and her young dad make a great team. I felt sorry that the mom had to die early, she was so pretty!

I just finished watching Episode 1 and the telephone scene almost made me cry. Aiba Masaki's first starring role and it suits him! The little girl is so cute!

Screen captures from episode 04:

Screen captures from episode 05:

I felt sorry for Tomoya-sensei in episode 04, can't believe his ex wife won't let him see their son anymore. The next episode looks interesting since it involves Masamune's strict boss. Seems the guy has issues with his own family.

Screen captures from episode 06:

i swearrr , aiba-chan and the little girl are soooo cutee <33 love this dramaa !
