1 Litre of Tears (Ep3)

Now the waterworks begin.

I can't stand watching Aya's parents cry. Especially her dad. He's such a goofball but his eyes are so full of genuine emotion, I can't.

...

Last episode was Asou's brother's first appearance, but we see more of him in this one. I really love this character too even if he only shows up in a few flashbacks. He's got some nice quotes. "I love animals, but I love humans more." He's a doctor for the right reasons. I'm more like that random guy at the anniversary service who gets called out by Asou... >.>

...

Dr. Mizuno is so freaking handsome. He's too young and good-looking. They shouldn't have picked this actor because I get confused when I watch the scene with him and Aya. I almost start thinking this is a typical love triangle drama.

...

Another episode where I feel SO bad for Ako. Come on! If I were her, I'd run away from home. She's so misunderstood! I just want to give her a big hug.

I sure hope the mom apologized to Ako!!!

...

Aya and Asou - their "fight" scene is so good. It's such an important one! Before this, Asou starts to thinks of Aya as a nice girl who also likes stray dogs, maybe a friend. But it's AFTER this scene - when she cries and gets angry at him for saying that stuff about life and death - when she asks him, "Will you really not care if your friend or loved one die?" (so sad knowing what's to come) - THIS is when he really sees her under a different light. She's not just a classmate. She's someone dealing with some powerful and dark emotions. She's in pain. Asou's in pain all this time too, mourning the loss of his brother. That's why he gravitates towards her.

I must praise Sawajiri Erika's acting in this scene!!! 

And I love how a few scenes later he's like "YOU'RE the weird one." It's so adorably childish. They're really just teenagers!



Favorite scene: the singing competition at the end - so memorable, so iconic

Close runner-up: when Asou's dad asks him, "are you dating her?" I know he's asking cuz he's worried his son is involved with a sick girl, but the awkwardness of this scene just made me laugh
