About Doctor X: Gekai Daimon Michiko Special
Kojiro Himuro is a champion figure skater taking part in an upcoming world competition. Yet, he is suffering from a complicated CTEPH (chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension). Kantaro Kurosu is the director of the Cross Medical Center. He asks Michiko Daimon to perform surgery on Kojiro, but, right before his surgery, she is deprived of “the most important weapon as a surgeon.”
Directed by Naoki Tamura, Doctor X: Gekai Daimon Michiko Special leans on a strong ensemble — Ryoko Yonekura, Kenichi Endo, Yuki Uchida — 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 2016.
