Our take

Are you seated comfortably? For those of you already hooked to Hirokazu Koreeda’s ten-part TV drama, episode 2 will familiarize you further with the family’s back story. Fun fact: A major sponsor of the show is the Japanese condiment maker Kewpie: perfect for Ryota’s mayonnaise addiction!
