I watched it a second time...
it left me feeling depressed for a while...

yupp some scenes really made me cried. i still didn't take the time to watch the movie/drama special

This drama made my cry....
But I like it and love all the characters....huhuhuhuh!!!

oh my.. i cried so much after watching 5 episodes of it. )':
its really good show. am currently watching ep 6.
its so touching.

okay i watched this through the entire night
the night after I got off the plane (during jet lag)
I watched it and CRIED IN EVERY EPISODE!!!!
literally O.O every single episode had me crying
and bawling my eyes out

one of the BEST BEST BEST

anyone know where i can watch the MOVIE?

-Rebecca

1 Litre of Tears is such a great show!
I really recommend this one ^^
Ryo looked great on that show XD
OMG HOOOOT LOL

But it made me cry like CRAZY!!
I feel so sad about what happened to Aya :/
aaaaaaish, I think im gonna cry again brb

you can watch the movie on Crunchyroll

^ no you can't watch it there anymore

-Rebecca

^ok never mind...
but i didnt like the movie. idk the tv series is actually a lot better. in the movie i felt as if it was rushed.

I love this drama..

for me it's the best Dorama..

so sad..hix..

I haven't seen many j-doramas, maybe 3 so far in my whole life, and from a dear friend's recommendation I decided to take this one on. I'm so glad I watched it and although I felt the love between Aya and Haruto, I also felt the pain. My eyes are so swollen and I haven't been sleeping well cause I've been up watching it, lol.

What happened to Asumi?

May Aya rest in peace. I wish that in her next lifetime she'll live a long life till old age takes her back to God again. I don't feel sad after watching the series, rather I feel happy that she lived her life as best she could, to the fullest as she could even with her illness. I just hope that I can do the same, with the same courage that Aya had.

I'm watching this right now and it's such an inspirational & touching drama. I've felt so sad and moved so many times, and aya was a really courageous and wonderful person!
I cried a lot throughout every episode

I really agree with you. Aya-chan is really an inspiration.
Although she had an un-curable disease, she has certainly lived her life to the fullest.

My friend (who's a guy) also cried while watching the last few episode of the drama.

I agree with you. The drama was wayy better. : )

I finished watching this drama like...months ago. But must i say, it got me bawling my eyes out on the last
episodes. When i saw her struggling, it made tears run down my eyes like nothing. TT^TT. It left a BIG impression
on me.

--This drama is a MUST WATCH.

=O There's a movie of it too?^^"

I saw the series a while ago.. and omg it's so sad ='(
I cried in every ep at least 3 times...
Despite Erika Sawajiri having bad attitude or w/e, I thought she was really cute lol ^^ Played the role really well..and I loved Nishikido Ryo too ^____^
But yeah.. it was so sad.. one of the best dramas I've ever watched.. took me weeks to get over it.. well.. I still haven't fully got over it.. but every time I heard Konayuki by Remioromen, I would start crying ^^"

I love this drama. So touching and inspirational. I couldn't stop crying at the last episode

i loved this series,
it made me cried so much.
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED <33

This drama made me cried so much.
I cried in every episode. Breaks my own record!
Made me understand Life is so precious!

One of the best drama!sooo touching.

i wnated to cry so much but tears didn't come out lol, but i kind got teary at the end when she die , no sign of asou kun when she die though ....... was he really part of her life ( real one ) or he's just a char to make it more interesting to the drama ?

^no, she never fell in love. that's why her mom asked the people to give her haruto. or something like that..yeah.

I heard he was just a made up character to spice up the drama... But it really was sad, it made me cry a lot through all the episodes.
It's pretty inspiration and so touching... it showed us Life is really preciious

I finally got started on this. *late person* I like how it gets straight to the point, fast-paced. Unlike those old skool k-dramas that lags 20 episodes in and then reveals a disease. But its strange how I haven't "cried" yet. I prepared a tissue box and all. Will I cry a litre of tears?

Stay till the end then!

Is it possible to dl the OST? I love the music. Especially K's Only Human.

Erika Sawajiri as Aya Ikeuchi

Ryou Nikishido as Haruto Asou

^ Yah! I'll send you the links!

Edit: Here is the link to the special for those of you who want to watch it.

1 Litre of Tears Special Ep. 1 Prt. 1

You'll find the rest of the links on the same page.

Thank you for the links above!

I didn't really cry that much but it is sooo worth watching from start to finish.
You're going to learn so much from aya and her family.

The only part where I really cried almost a liter was when her younger sister did something very very unexpected.

I watched this drama a year ago Q__Q I'm still crying when I watched it .... SO SAAAAAAAAAAAD >______< erika acts really good Q_Q I'm starting to crying again TT_TT~ + the OST is great Only Human is a great song and it fits in this drama perfectly.... :3~

It was a pleasure ^^

(I assume you meant to my post) lol


I also got the whole one hour Special Episode. I'll link that too, as soon as I get to upload it.

I finished it.

This is probably the best disease drama I have ever watched. The acting from everyone was simply amazing. The story was amazing. Suuggooii!! I loved Ryo's character even though he wasn't real. And I also liked how they did not bring any romanticism into the drama between Aya & Asou-kun cuz it would have thwarted the main focus of the story. But overall, I really loved this.

AWww.. it's not english subbed yet. I'm still waiting for it to be subbed. still supporting 1 Litre Of Tears.

I only watched the movie because I didn't like how the love story was added to make it more appealing (Although, Ryo is pretty damn cute!!!), that, and I don't feel like Erika's acting was the best. The girl from the movie (I don't remember her name at the moment) was sooooooo amazing. After seeing her heartbreaking and convincing performance, and then comparing it with Erika's...I just didn't feel the need to watch.

I just finish watching both the drama and movie, all in a day.
The drama is heaps better than the movie.
The movie is nothing much actually and it is pretty much focused on Asou (he's sooo sweet) only.
I think I did cry a litre of tears watching the entire drama.
I love the Ikeuchi family. They're so supportive of each other and I just couldn't stop crying because of that.
The Aya-Asou thing did add some spice to the drama but I'm glad it's very minimal.

I think the show's really meaningful and the sadness is still stuck in me.

Yes, I finally got around to watching this drama and OMIGOODNESS....this is the best drama I've ever seen (in this genre)!!!!!

I can't even explain how I feel about this drama....it will always have a special place in my heart. I never cry when I watch movies or dramas but with this one...the tears just flowed naturally. I mean I didn't cry during every single episode but when I did cry...the tears really just over flowed. This was just so beautiful and touching that I would want everyone to watch it so they can experience it.

The OST is also so beautiful! Every time I hear that 3 gatsu 9 ka song....I'll want to cry.

Everyone's acting in this drama was so convincing and superb! I absolutely love the family!!! I really like how they would take pictures during the different times in their lives and how supportive they are of each other. That scene where Ayo's sister scolded the brother was so good and was one of the parts I really cried. I'd have to say episode 8 was my favorite one....at the end of it....I cried so hard! Even just thinking about it....I get teary eyed! So incredible!!!!

I will say the only thing I wanted more of was a tiny bit of skinship between Ayo and Asou. I mean I'm glad the whole drama wasn't about a romance but I wanted at least like a hug!!! Just one little hug! I mean a kiss would have been nice but I would take a hug.

Aside from that tiny thing....everything else was perfect! I can't even say how much I love this drama....I really really really do! I can't wait for the special to be subbed!

may i ask .. where do i get the book in malaysia... after seeing that drama i m really touched !!! while watching episode 9 to 11 i use 20 tissue !!! sob sob ,... its very very meaning full !!!! so after that i decisided to get the book ... but somehow i got no idea how to get the book ... and since its in japanese .. i wonder how would i understand ...

help me T.T

Deleted link.

I just finished watching the drama ... this series teaches us to love life & to savor every moment with gratitude. because not everyone is gifted with good health & a happy long life. Aya taught us to face every challenge with courage & dignity. She is the perfect example of a person who accepted her fate without regtrets and made use of her time & talent to help others.

I'm just curious though if Aya donated her body for medical research as she intended to do when she told her doctor in one of their conversations & it was again mentioned by her doctor to her parents at the end stage of her illness. I wonder if this went through 'coz, at the final scene there was her tomb shown & visited by her parents, doctor & several people, friends & classmates & several in wheelchairs.

I just finished watching the series

..agree^ with the replier on top... it really does show us how important and lucky we are to actually have life... and quite a healthy one too... and knowing that you never know what might happen tomorrow..so cherish everything you have

throughout the series, my eyes have teared up a billion times...but they wouldnt fall...
i think i actually 'cried-cried [when tears actually ran down my face]' like 2-3 times...
so sad... and whenever haruto asou came out he was soo sweet and caring... yet everytime i thought...the real person who had this disease didnt actually have haruto in her life =[

cant wait until the special episode is subbed in english!! i really wanna watch it, now that ive heard of what its about..

ive always wondered if the bit in the series when aya came back into the classroom because she forgot her book and her class were all complaining about aya.. and so were her friends..how aya was slowing and affecting all of them in there school work..and stuff like that... was true? did it like actually happen in the real aya's life?? because if it did.. it would have been really sad ...

Overall... i recommend this series to anyone who is pondering if they should watch this or not!

I've just finish watching this drama...WOW...I cried 1 litre of tears...It's so sad
Ryo is so cute... And Aya is so pretty...This drama is really good

there is a special epi??? =O
no one told me about that!!!
people fill me in!

its all about the lives of the characters after aya died . its 2 hour long but most of the episode are flashbacks.
To those who are waiting like me for the eng subs of The OLT SP CRFansub is currently subbing it it's been like half a year but kioku hasn't released it yet
