Miwa (Asami Mizukawa) and Akira (Sho Kiyohara) are a happily married couple who while away the time watching their favorite show on a youtube channel ANMINA featuring three young comedians!
Besides being Akira's favorite channel, these three people, Anna (Fumika Baba), Minato(Mizuki Itagaki), and Sho (Masaki Nakao) just happen to live on the same floor of their same apartment!
Add in a photographer (Keisuke Watanabe) who, while stuck at home, discovers the beauty of his pretty next-door neighbor when she is watering her plants, and you have an apartment full of lively inhabitants and interactions!
After Asami's extremely dark and gritty "Double Fantasy", I was ready to see something a bit more light-hearted from her. You know, over the years, they have been really typecasting her as this bitter, unlucky-in-love kind of lady, so it’s nice to see a drama where they appreciate how sweet and pretty she is, such is Love Distance!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ASAMI!!!
Omedetto, Birthday Girl! Loved you ever since "Last Friends" and "Nodame Cantabile" and have followed you faithfully ever since! Here's to seeing even MORE from you in the future!
