    I watched this show mainly because I am a Shida Mirai fan. But this drama disappointed me. The relationship between Shida Mirai and the father of her baby, played by Miura Haruma seemed too flat and fake. What exactly was the emotional connection that these two had so that they would have sex? And Shida Mirai as a pregnant teenager was weird. She looks like she is 10 years old even though she is supposed to be 14.

    The only worthwhile performances were from Tanaka Misako as the all bearing and brave mother. > Also, kudos to the actress who played Miura's mother. She was an interesting character.

    But the drama does bring up some interesting issues and it seems quite anti-abortion.

    The drama is neither happy nor sad, but it is full of reflection. The 14 years old girl in pregnant... It sounds terribly. Miki gave a baby, though everyone has objection. I see her future in black colors, but who knows... I admit she had exceptional parents, who could accept that choice. Especially mother. An oasis of calm. It was very unrealistic, but finally - it's fiction.

    In Japan, at least the abortion isn't forbidden, so there always exists a rescue answear this situtation. Maybe it's not easy, but there is always better to have a choice.

  • Both handles a story about giving birth. In 14 sai no haha it's teenage girl giving birth and in Umareru it's +50 year old mother giving birth. Both dramas are really good.

    I'd like to see a second season / SP for this great drama. The plot would be how Miki (Shiida Mirai) has lived so far with her kid and something.
