This isn't going to be your normal review because the title is the feeling I get when I watch any Midnight Diner shows. Like I'm headed to somewhere nice. I wish there were a diner like this near me, where I could go indulge in midnight snack-meals, while drinking and having conversations with my friends in a comfortable, relatively safe, setting. And everyone has problems, even all the patrons at the Midnight Diner. Some are simple, others are horribly complicated or painful, sometimes both. So bad that a patron left a funeral urn at the Diner!

Throughout the movie, that urn is mentioned and becomes a sort of common thread touching on each of the personal stories featured in this movie. And there were some truly heavy issues explored. Should things get too difficult, Master is always there to provide the right kind of advice in a way that is unique, even to Japan. It's like he aced all the Psychology tests in College without even trying. He'll advise you better than a true friend could, and tell you what you NEED to hear, not what you want to hear. I wish I had a Master and Midnight Diner in my life. I cling to that hope the same way I watch the credits all the way up to the end, just to "keep" some of that Midnight Diner comforting feeling around as long as I can, because I want to, and it's such a gem of a show.
