Well, to contradict what I said earlier, here's introducing you a drama that chills your bones right from the very start. Kaseifu no Mita-san. I guess no matter how much ranting I do about the lack of a good romance script (Kitagawa Eriko-san onegai!)
I still do love a good thriller and a mystery. Matsushima Nanako won me over years ago with her brilliant acting in GTO as the 'gentle natured' 'air stewardess' aspiring teacher and as the mysterious Toko in Koori no Sekai.
She has won me over yet again, I have to take my hats off to this woman, she has the acting chops in her. Her status as one of Japan's top actress is as sure as the fall of the European Banks. Right from the start, she has me on the edge. Is she going to kill them? What the f****** hell is wrong with this family? No make up or glamourous outfits here, only knives, apron and a cold and DEADLY stare for our Nanny Mita-san.
The kids in this show deserve a nod too, what a talented young cast, things started out creepy and morbid, but as what Japanese dramas are amazing for, there will be a slow and subtle twist to becoming heartwarming and funny. Oh mita-san I would just want to see you smile again. Pretty please????
