I like her as well as “Nanase futatabi”. I enjoyed the original novel, Yumi Takigawa’s version,Yuki Watanabe’s, and the most recent Misako Renbutsu’s. Yet Nanase is one of the trilogy which is the sequel to “Kazoku Hakkei” and the prequel to “Edipusu No Koibito”. I don’t know why the other two books have never been TV dramatized or filmed though both are excellent and interesting,too. I hope the whole of the trilogy will be a TV show and movies.
