Cheers!

The much-talked-about morning drama “Tora ni Tsubasa” was cranked up on August 31. One week later, Sairi Ito (30), the lead actress, was leading a toast at a restaurant in Shirokane where nearly 200 people had gathered.

Ito, who completed the year-long filming as the film’s chairperson, had a great time chatting with her fellow “alumni” Ha Yong Soo (33) and Sakurai Yuki (37), and sobbing at a video message from her mentor Kaoru Kobayashi (73) and the producer’s greeting. The launch party lasted for five hours.

Tora ni Tsubasa” is an original story based on the life of Yoshiko Mibuchi, Japan’s first female lawyer. The intelligent and charming heroine, Torako (Tomoko), is a woman who is always saying, “Huh? and faces various absurdities, many people were moved by the way she pushed her way through the legal profession, which used to be a male-dominated society. The highest average household rating as of September 10, two weeks before the final episode, was 18.9% for the 100th episode.

Factors behind the big hit

Takahiko Kageyama, a professor at Doshisha Women’s University and media critic, says that there are two factors behind the success of “Wings to the Tiger.

First is the screenplay by Erika Yoshida. The film addresses numerous social issues such as gender inequality, racism, gender, and the A-bomb trials, and has won the sympathy of a wide range of generations. The second factor is the lead actress, Sairi Ito, who brings out the best in the script. I will never forget the scene when the two desperately hold back tears and make funny faces at each other as they send off their husbands, Yuzo (Taga Nakano, 31), who is going off to war. Her ability to do both serious and laugh-out-loud funny acting was a perfect fit for this film.”

The supporting cast’s stock is also soaring. Hanae is a friend of Torako’s from her school days and later becomes her sister-in-law, played by Misato Morita (28), who left a strong impact with her role as a legendary porn star with armpit hair in “Naked Director” (Netflix), but Hanae is a completely different type. In contrast to Torako, who is in the limelight as Japan’s first female lawyer, Hanae is a good mother who keeps the house safe. Yet, she also shows a conniving side in the beginning of the story, telling the audience to “live a devious life,” which drew a lot of attention.

There is one more notable character. Shiori Doi (32) played the role of Yone Yamada, an alumna of Torako’s and a lawyer who lived the same legal life after the war. Yone has always dressed as a man due to her sad past. Although she is brusque and often clashes with Torako, Doi himself is a cheerful and smiling person. She attracted attention for her brilliant performance in the complicated role of Yone, and she has been cast as a regular in the October cool drama “MUTO NO HAWK” (TV Asahi),” said Kageyama.

The best script and the best actors. The secret of the blockbuster hit was indeed “tiger with wings.
