I haven't watched everything that was on my list (plus one title I got interested in later on), but in the last 2 weeks or so I managed to finish most of what I wanted to watch, I'm satisfied.
We are going from worst to best, I warn you.
Also, today I can't seem to know English, so bear with me, I'm Tired.
Koi wa Deep ni
Let's start with this one, let's get it out of the way.
AAAAAAH WHAT A WASTE.
Such poor writing, poor characters developement, poor everything! A lot of the time I felt like watching a Korean drama, and not in a good sense. I just couldn't understand why the characters did what they did, which were their reasons, why they changed their minds all the time about that damn underwater thing they wanted to build (Lord knows I didn't care one bit about the main plot), they were just doing random things.
How the Hasuda Trust hasn't gone bankrupt already is beyond me, since it was run by people who made decisions based on how they woke up that morning. There was nothing logical. Ooooh and Rintaro's older brother? Did you get why he was so damnmad all the time?? Yeah ok for their mother but come on it makes no sense. And why all of a sudden, at some point, he's not mad anymore?? I don't know, it was all so shallow.
And don't let me start about Mio's story because nothing was explained, we just have some hints but nothing more.
It's a waste because Ayano and Satomi were SO DAMN GOOD, they had great chemistry and basically all the drama on their shoulders. We could have had so much more.
Ayano always does this, damn him. He acts in some wonderful thing, I fall in love all over again, and then sbam! He choose a crap project. Stop playing with my heart, man.
At least I have many screenshoots of him looking handsome. The OST was pretty nice too.
We could have had it aaaaaaall

It was really cute. Full of cliches but in a good way.
The first episodes didn't convince me, it was a bit weird and I couldn't see where they were going, but then! The main characters' relationship somewhat develops and I loved them and their banters. There were 2 suuuuper werid characters too, I loved them (Karen sensei let me live).

We're arrived into the Real Quality section.
This was really good. All the characters had a purpose, were likable and I loved them ;_; From a legal point of view it was a bit surreal, but what do I know about Japanese Law (let me say, though, that the fact that apparently in Japan you can become a judge even with just a high school diploma and experience as a lawyer makes me cry, because here it's one of the hardest thing ever).
It gave me some 99.9 vibes, because of the trio weird man/strict woman that softens/older man who fights the corruption in the legal system. It wasn't as fun and crazy as 99.9, though (which is good, it makes it different), the cases in each episode were also pretty moving.

Man, what a story, WHAT A COUPLE.
Two people get married after 2 or 3 months of dating, of course things will go bad. But in tis case? They decide to divorce after just ONE DAY. They haven't even slept together yet. They kissed only at the wedding ceremony. Bless them. Not only that, their respective parents decide to divorce too. The wonderful thing is that nothing of this seems forced, they all have perfectly good reasons to divorce, and to do everything else they do in the drama.
The first episode you'll want to just punch Koichi in the face, but after that? The most precious man. Him and Saki were truly wonderful together T_T At some point they became frustrating because they decided to make important decisions without talking to each other, but I still love them.

I don't think I have the words to properly explain why I loved this drama so much (and today my English is terrible, so it's worse than usual).
It was very aesthetically pleasing (it's not a good reason, but still): pretty sceneries, prettu colours, pretty lights, pretty clothes, pretty things, pretty people. And food. And a gorgeous dog.
I loved the themes it talked about, and they way it did it; it was about finding your own place in the world, finding your dream and fighting for it, about not being afraid of changes. Social medias had an important part in it (Kurumi, the main character, is an influencer and manages the social media of the company she works with) in a way I had not seen yet in Jdramas, it was interesting and very "actual".
The romantic relationships developed in such a natural, beautiful way, it was wonderful ♥ There was some kind of love triangle (but really, not really), but one where the 3 people involved respected, loved and supported each other so much, you rarely see something like that.
And the main couple, oh God. I love them. I LOVE them. Such a supportive, healthy relatonship ;_; They were adorable.
(I've never seen Yokoyama Ryusei playing this kind of character, it was refreshing and I love him a little. Also, Mukai Osamu is so fine, damn).
