The feel-good part

The drama makes us aware of reality. This drama is not fiction but it still is a watchable drama. It is one of the most grounded and serious series. It is fascinatingly abysmal.

The disappointing factor

This drama is undeniably an impoverished work. The animation quality was scooped poorly in some of the scenes. The worst part was some scenes were unintentionally silly. The deaths of the characters were entirely ridiculous.

Star power

The animation was at its worst. The characters are basic they rarely seemed to stay on the line and none of the characters felt real.

Overall view

Japan sinks is adapted from a novel written by Sakyo Komatsu. It was heralded in two parts.
