The Story of One Century tells the stories of three women, living in three different Japanese eras: Taisho (1912-1926), Showa (1926-1989) and Heisei (1989-present). The first generation takes place in the 1920s at the time of the Great Kanto Earthquake. Togura Aya, coming from a wealthy and influential family, marries against her will to a wealthy man Yokoyama Heikichi, who can help her father tide over his financial difficulties. It seems to be a wrong move, and life goes on meaninglessly for her, until she makes up her mind to follow her heart (Kota Yashiro, a man with a humble background). However, inequality between men and women prevails, and Aya experiences many difficulties... In the Showa period, the focus is on Junko, the daughter of Aya. The story starts just after Japan surrenders in World War II. Life is hard, and she has to look after her younger brother, being brought up under the Imperialism influence. Her life changes when she meets a Japanese-American soldier... In the Heisei period, Chiyo is the focus. An independent, self-centered career woman, she embarks on a journey of revenge on her mother after receiving a call from her mother wishing to meet with her. Her mom abandoned her 24 years ago when she was only four years old.

No matter what this is kinda confusing at between the second and third generation, but as one can see it all leads to a point again. Love is a full circle in life. Get show to watch with your Japanese girlfriend or any girlfriend who likes japanese drama.

4.  Nice Love Story [Rating: ?/10]
Pretty touching drama, it was very confusing between the connection between the second and third story, but the first story was my favourite. It also teaches you a little about japanese history and shows how the times have changes through the decades.

5.  Watch this with your gf! [Rating: 8/10]
While this drama was pretty short compared to others, the story developed and overlapped well. It was enjoyable to watch this drama and learn more about Japanese history and culture of the past. None of the dramas I've seen have dealt with this time period. One thing's for sure, this is not your ordinary drama. One of the stories however lagged from the rest which brings this down to I would say 8.
