Salmon Kulebyaka Tokuzo Style

Loved this episode!! I wish they stretched this period of his life longer but, that being said, the last 5 minutes were the strongest in the episode and that ending really got me curious.

My heart really breaks for Shintaro, the same way it does for nii-yan. It is just so hard to see hard working individual with such aspirations to not see the fruits of their effort for whatever reason.

Oh and Tokuzo matured so much, but in such a believable rate. He keeps reminding himself of his past mistakes which is a great character trait. He is both lucky and gifted, and like his mother said, lucky people need to work even harder! I also like his taste in women, which is mostly character over looks. He shows so much honesty and faithfulness while still thriving for his own dream, as selfish as he may appear.

I particularly liked the way his relationship with the "french" girl went. I love how they were pushing each other to reach their respective dream. I love how she speaks Japanese to him while he replies in french, showing so much openness and respect to each other's culture. But deep down I still hope he gets back to his first wife, as unlikely as it may appear. She lived all her life in sacrifice, and I wish she can live a life getting something back to herself. Her case is a complete mystery at this point. all I say is I wish her the best.
