南極大陸～神の領域に挑んだ男と犬の物語～ - Nankyoku Tairiku

[eskarina77]

I started to watch this drama 2 days ago... and it's just a WONDERFUL DRAMA.
Cast, story, making of this drama are just excellent.
Plus, I cherish this story since it reminds me 1st time I went to Japan: When I went to visit Tokyo Tower, I stopped in front of a statue representing a pack of dogs.

A man (that kind of guy who's there to give tourists a tour) approached me and offered to tell me the story of those dogs, if I had time to spare to listen to him. I listened carefully to this wonderful and so moving story: in the late 50's, an expedition to Antartica had to abandon their sled dogs due to bad weather, they had to force their way back to Japan. More than 1 year later, when the next expedition managed to reach Anartica coasts again, with no hope for the dogs, they discovered 2 of them had survived! (ok, that's the very short version of what that man told me)
The statue comemores those dogs.
Here is theme song of the drama:

I like both versions. :D I'm indecisive... because naka risa is in both of them as the main character. xD I like the beginning of the anime and the end of the live action movie :Db
