About Till the Day I Can Laugh about My Blues
A goldfish in a tank, taken care of only by the protagonist, dies, and only then do the students feel sorry for it. In this world, people will be kind to you only when you die. Anne, ignored by her classmates, attends classes on the verge of breakdown, but when she meets Aina, who feels the same way, she smiles again.
Directed by Karin Takeda, Till the Day I Can Laugh about My Blues leans on a strong ensemble — Miyu Watanabe, Kokona Sumi, Rin Marumoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
