Youkai Sharehouse is like the Japanese Addams Family

My favorite Koshiba Fuka's drama after Tokusatsu Gagaga. Both dramas are fun to watch, with good mix of comedy and seriousness.

Her character is relatable as she's someone who is good natured and works hard but her efforts are not rewarded as she keeps struggling in love and work, that she believes herself to be cursed. She hit a breaking point and collapsed at a temple where the Yokai found her.

So you can imagine the chaos that ensues when she woke up in a house where the Yokai dwells. In the beginning, she thought it's just a nightmare but eventually realizes the truth but somehow grow comfortable being with them as they're not what she thought.

She grows very close to one in particular, who is like her big sister. She's overprotective and always worried about her wellbeing, causing the Yokai to intervene in her life when the situation calls for it, as they discover that humans are much more terrifying than Yokai.

Over time, she develops confidence in taking charge of her life, thanks to the support of the Yokai. However, her close relations with them also means that she's slowly turning into a Yokai herself, which explains her anger she's been accumulating throughout her life.

So ultimately, she has to decide on her life which would either turn her into a Yokai who cannot die or return as a human being.

What I also love about this show is that all the Yokai have their own backstories which are based on Japanese folklore and folktales, including the new ones which appears every episode. And I enjoy the story-telling and the traditional songs sang by one of the Yokai.

I love the wholesome family relationship they have looking out for her. They're like her parents and older siblings. The parents are wise and patient giving advice and telling stories, while the older sister and brother are more ruthless and unforgiving to those who hurt her.

The drama have two seasons and one movie. However, I only managed to watch the dramas as the movie is nowhere to be found.

I'm crying… from Koisenu Futari. When I heard there's an aroace J-drama this season I was excited but also low-key scared it's going turn out a setup. But they namedrop the label first episode as I realize it was not from a commercial network, but made by Life As A Girl's NHK!! I guess my only complaint then it's only a mini-series. Even though it's 30×8 it's essentially just like 45×4 like last time and I know it's not gonna be enough.

I'm just really touched by that part about not wanting to be alone and just be yourself, and that you can just, choose your family. I feel like it's been quite some time since I was moved to tears by a tv show. That feeling of being understood, feel really good.

Of all the jdramas that I've watched, Koshiba Fuka's dramas are the ones that got me teary eyed. Either her acting is so good that her crying makes you want to cry too and reach out to her to hug her or her characters life stories are the most relatable on every level. 🥹😭
