erika Apr 17 2020 11:35 am splendid drama! such a shame i only got to know this drama almost 2 years after its release. def need a season 2 but isn't it rare for japanese drama to get a 2nd season unless its a mega hit? cmiiw

r Sep 27 2019 9:40 am I think there are ai hashimoto and shibasaki kou' appearances in ep 5

Aoi sora Jun 27 2019 8:38 pm Just finished watching DELE and I'm gonna say it was GREAT series. Each episode taught a lot about life. And I love the characters of Takayuki Yamada and Masaki Suda, they played really good, as expected from 2 great actors. I agree that DELE deserves more episodes, why only 8?? Now I hope there will be season 2.

Miss Mars May 05 2019 2:20 pm Yes! Looking forward to seeing this at Red by HBO channel. I Love You Masaki Suda! You were weird but cool in Todome No Kiss with close tomodachi Kento Yamazaki, another love of mine. Perhaps Mr. Hiragi's Homeroom is your best dramatic to date! Love that series a lot especially the interesting mix of HS students in trouble.

dani Mar 13 2019 12:41 am can there be a season 2 now..................

doram Jan 08 2019 12:02 am I wonder why this drama only has 8 episodes?!!! This is such a great drama, thumbs up for all the actors, writers, directors.... Great cast, script, and especially..original soundtrack! Overall rating 5/5.

samion Jan 03 2019 2:19 pm great ost!

Flavio Nov 22 2018 7:09 am One of the best drama I ever watched. As Jfan wrote, a dark atmosphere but sending good messages in a kind way. Next step is looking for the script writer/s.

Jfan Nov 12 2018 1:24 pm This is a brilliant drama, it seems dark but very human. Kudos to the excellent writer, director, and actors. Thanks for the subber too!!

asari Sep 21 2018 2:40 am when Takayuki Yamada a great actor of showa's era meet Suda Masaki a great actor of heisei's era, it gonna be a great drama.. saikoo!! ^^

kazaharu Aug 24 2018 11:16 am I'm impressed with Suda's acting! I didn't pay much attention to him during GTO, and hated him in 35-sai no koukousei, but he was incredible in Teiichi no Kuni. The acting in this drama is so natural, I'm looking forward to watching every episode!

Nonon Aug 13 2018 11:13 pm Watching two decent actors play together in one drama is awesome. I watched already 2 episodes and I was impressed by the storyline and the acting! Summer 2018 will be enjoyable while waiting for this drama everyweek.

Meann Aug 06 2018 10:58 pm It's been a while since I've watched a decent Japanese drama. The story will make you hook with a nice blend of action, suspense, and some funny moments. I'm really impressed how the actors played their roles. The acting is not exaggerated (i get annoyed on many jdramas because of this). Overall, if you're reading this and still haven't watch Dele, you're slow. Watch it!

Lolsomany Aug 05 2018 3:16 am This drama is the best of summers 2018. This years summer drama kinda weak only this show is shines. Highly recommended

Alee Aug 04 2018 10:40 am After I had watched the first episode, I was impressed.

Meann Jun 26 2018 4:29 pm I'm looking forward on this drama!
