doram May 10 2021 5:12 pm I think Sakamoto Yuji, Shigeki Kaneko and Yuichi Fukuda are my favorite screenwriter/director. I've truly enjoyed most of their works (even before I recognize them as a screenwriter/director) Truly geniuses!

As for Sakamoto Yuji, his works "Still, Life Goes On" and "Matrimonial Chaos" is my all time favorite! Eita starred in both dramas, hence he becomes one of my favorite Japanese Actors :) His acting never disappoints. Currently watching Omameda Towako to Sannin no Motootto and I enjoyed it so far. Looking forward to his next works!!
