Drama Digest
Adapted from a novel named “End of the Tiny World” by Yukinari Kaoru. This is a mini series which takes place half a year after the movie “End of the Tiny World”. After execution of the plan on Christmas Eve, Kida receives a request to save a man from an organisation. He refuses but he changes his mind after learning that the client was his childhood friend.
The Feel-Good Part
The way Kida’s boss worries for him and helps him is very heart-warming and feel-good moment. Even though he doesn’t express it outwardly he shows care towards Kida through his actions.
The Disappointing Factor
This series will make no sense if we haven’t watched the movie first. The ending isn’t a happy one but it is realistic.
