Other name: 東京センチメンタル

Description:

Tokyo Sentimental is a heartwarming drama centered on Kururi Takuzo, a fifty-five-year-old artisan who runs Kururiya, a traditional Japanese confectionery shop in Kototoibashi, Tokyo. While his expert dango-making skills have surpassed his strict father's, Takuzo’s personal life is far from perfect. Having survived three divorces, he leads a carefree yet somewhat sloppy romantic life. To escape the routine, Takuzo wanders through the streets of Tokyo with an antique single-lens reflex camera, capturing the nostalgic essence of a rapidly changing city. During his peaceful walks, he repeatedly crosses paths with various charming women who capture his heart. Each encounter leads to a fleeting romance filled with delicious food, fine drinks, and intimate conversations. As Takuzo experiences these sweet, transient connections, viewers are invited on a sentimental journey through Tokyo's hidden beauty. Will this aging romantic finally find a love that lasts, or will his romantic escapades remain beautiful, fleeting memories?
