The story was well paced and meaningful. It followed a series of events with every episode becoming sadder and sadder. The saddest scene for me was with one of the family 'arguments' and the sister was saying how amazing Aya was. It made me cry so much. Everything made sense in the episodes. I found the short extracts from the real Aya's diaries submitted at the end of each episode a smart move. It added to the reality behind the drama. At the end of each episode, I would read what the phrase was for the episode this time, and after reading it, I would feel depressed once again. By the way, Asou Haruto was such an amazing character. He was definitely my favourite character even though he never existed from the real happening.
The acting was superb! Sawajiri Erika is such an amazing actor in my opinion. All the actors did a really good job for every scene. Bonus, I really enjoyed Nishikido Ryo's presence in this drama. Not only was his acting great, he's also really good looking. Narumi Riko was so good in those moments when her character was speaking up. I admired her acting. And to think that most of these actors (SE, Nishikido R, Narumi R, etc) were teenagers at the time of filming, it just blows my mind. Their acting was out of this world and especially at their age at the time. Those serious moments... and those sad af crying scenes. They completed it perfectly.
Now, the music is another thing. IT WAS PERFECT. It went along with the story nicely. There was not one piece that I heard during any episode that I thought something other than 'this music is nice and it fits well with this scene'. It added to the effect of what was happening in the story and even the closing episode music was sad enough to hear, to get me close to tears again. I recommend hearing the music, definitely. Watching the drama along with the music will make it sadder though, for sure.
I may re-watch this drama sometime in the future but I may need some time to recover from everything that I just watched. I recommend this drama to everyone, but just be prepared for the sadness. I didn't cry as much as most people did, I believe, but there were maybe three times I did. It is the most I have cried in any drama of any kind. BTW, I do hold my tears well.
I must say R.I.P to Aya... and thank her for her wonderful diary writing, for sharing her thoughts and feelings. She must've been a wonderful young woman.

The only Drama that literally made me cry like a little girl
This is the best heartbreaking drama I have ever seen, but it's an inspiration too.Which is why, its my favourite heartbreaking Drama of all time!
This literally made me shed tears non-stop, As a man... I can't even explain it!
But tears were made, and I did try holding them back to the best of my ability.
The story is based on a True Story of a girl named Aya Kita whom wrote
a diary of her struggles with her disease. This is a special story.
It made me realise about being grateful for this human life.
There are others less fortunate than us, we shouldnt't take this for granted.
And we should help those who are less fortunate and be compassionate.
The OST is so beautiful, especially the song March 9th/Sangatsu Kokonoka.
I simply adore this song!
*Hitomi wo tojireba anata ga (If I close my eyes)
Mabuta no ura ni iru koto de (You're behind my eyelids)
Dore hodo tsuyoku nareta deshou (How strong has that made me?)
Anata ni toote watashi mo sou de aritai (I hope I'm the same for you)
The rewatch value is low, like others have mentioned.
It's tough to go through this again.
But it's a beautiful story that must be watched at least once.
This is a must watch for anyone interested in J-Dramas.

As far as acting is concerned, Sawajiri Erika and Nishikido Ryo were quite convincing. The same goes for the other actors. However for me Jinnai Takanori's acting was overdramatic. Narumi Riko was quite amateurish, too.
The soundtrack was beautiful, although you can't help but notice that a couple of songs and music themes are repeated too many times during the drama.
Generally, 1 litre of tears is a worth watching drama, especially if you love romance or tragedy. The character development is interesting and the story can touch anybody. Nevertheless, I can't overlook the fact that I felt that an important question was left unanswered in the end.

The first time I watched this, I cried so much and even looking back on this drama now I still get teary-eyed . Before watching this , I actually never got emotional when watching ANY drama but after 1 Litre of tears I think I became more sensitive.
This drama is the kind where you know how the ending will be but still you watch it even though you know you're just giving yourself a lot of heartbreak. For me, this drama wasn't simply about a 15 year old girl suffering from an incurable disease but more of how she tries to fight against this disease and again this isn't a new plot in the case of J-dramas BUT because its based on a true story, it really does feel different. Maybe because while i was watching this drama i kept on remembering this fact and it really dawned on me how exceptional Aya was because she was a real person fighting against a terminal illness with such strength and optimism. She wasn't portrayed as being super-human and so there were moments where you did see her optimism waning and her struggle.
Another highlight of this drama was her family. They were supportive but of coarse they couldn't actually ease her suffering. A plus with 1 litre of tears is that its not that long, for that reason i marathoned this drama and have not forgotten it since. It really isn't a drama you can forget easily and more than that this drama really shows how important family is and friends. But also how when facing difficulties in our own lives we should try to remain positive and strong.
Any one who still hasn't tried this gem of a drama should definitely try it out. The storyline isn't complicated or long-winded but nor is it boring. The simplicity of it really brings out the emotions of the characters and with the OST (Konayuki) being played in the background, you'll lose a lot of tears but be able to watch an amazing drama.

I guess I liked it so much because it was somewhat relatable to me. And I think it gave me such a valuable perspective back when I was younger.
The story and execution left such a huge imprint on me that even without actually re-watching it, I could remember almost every scene.

i finished the drama in less than 24 hours and cried my eyes out for more than half of the series...
the whole cast was absolutely amazing and the story was really beautiful.
the characters blended beautifully and all the reactions and actions felt real...
if you're ready for crying more than a litre of tears and gut wretching heartache...then you're ready for this...

The important thing is that it´s based on a real life story and we know this terrible disease, and in turn, see how a girl made ??the decision to move forward with your life ... simply an example to follow!
So... for me, 1 liter of tears is small compared to the tears that you can spill...is emotional, sentimental, but beautiful!
In addition to the excellent cast is amazing
The music is central to the development of the story.
I have seen 3 times and each time I like more than the previous

--> some of my perspectives in life changed when i saw this ..It's not being dramatic but it's true!
I also observed the minimal usage of music especially in crying or sad scenes which made me realized that the acting/cast was made perfect! All in all it's great!
