Jiro Kanzaki is an F3000 test driver blessed with acute sensitivity and breathtaking driving techniques. He's a daredevil who feels no fear driving at speeds that even top racers dare not attempt. But unexpected trouble forces this world-famous racer to leave his team and return to Japan for the first time in years. Until he finds a new job as a racer, Jiro decides to stay with his parents. What awaits Jiro there is his hardheaded father, his nagging sister, the 12 children of the foster home his father runs, a snobbish male nurse, and a stubborn female nurse who likes to daydream about her life.

Jiro's return home brings a breath of fresh air that influences the people around him. However, he is still unaware that he too will eventually be influenced to change the way he thinks and lives.

Soundtrack and Theme Songs (2)

1. I Can See Clearly Now [Jimmy Cliff]

I can see clearly now the rain is gone

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

Oh yes, I can make it now the pain is gone

All of the bad feelings have disappeared

Here is the rainbow I've been praying for

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

Ooh - look all around, there's nothing but blue skies

Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies

I can see clearly now the rain is gone

I can see all obstacles in my way

Here's the rainbow I've been praying for

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

Real, real, real, real bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

Yeah, hey, it's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day

2. Angel [Aerosmith]

I'm alone

Yeah, I don't know if I can face the night

I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do is for you

I want your love - Let's break the walls between us

Don't make it tough - I'll put away my pride

Enough's enough I've suffered and I've seen the light

Baby

You're my angel

Come and save me tonight

You're my angel

Come and make it all right

Don't know what I'm gonna do

About this feeling inside

Yes it's true - Loneliness took me for a ride

Without your love - I'm nothing but a begger

Without your love - a dog without a bone

What can I do I'm sleeping in this bed alone

Come and save me tonight

You're the reason I live

You're the reason I die

You're the reason I give

When I break down and cry

Don't need no reason why

Baby , Baby

You're my angel

Come and save me tonight

you're my angel

Come and take me allright

Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight

I just finished watching it yesterdays... and i think i'm in love with Kimura Takuya... i loved his character... but anyways... i really liked this series... it was not at all boring... too bad the last few epis. didn't have eng subs... i had to read the chinese subs and i only understand so much...

All in all... this series was very good... i'm trying to find some more of Kimura Takuya's movie... if you know of any that is good... please recommend.

Ah, I've heard of this.

'Cause I went kinda Kimura crazy after Pride.

Haha, looks pretty good but I'm not into racing.

Funny how a lot of the J-Dramas only have eleven episodes.

=S

Of course the turtle song! "Turtle, turtle, why are you so slow?" Now that's in a class of its own!
