Why this anime got great reviews, I don't understand

It was hard to write this review about this drama. An anime about the realistic depiction of an earthquake may be the reason why it got such high praise, the character interactions had flaws and the story was just OK. So, I wasn't extremely sad when Yuuki died. Mari is about the only character who stuck with me and got me through this long torturous journey.

Mirai is a despicable teenager who acts like a child, hence may be the reason why she is treated like one. Also, she has this relationship with Mari that I felt was excessively motherly. Her brother could also be a little too childish, but he's just a young kid so I don't have that much of a problem with it.

The twist with Yuuki was quite predictable, I did think something was wrong with him keep disappearing and reappearing and how was he able to survive that surgery, by the way?

I think that the anime should've been shortened to about 9-10 episodes long, it was a bit boring but it may have been because I was sleepy at the time. There's not really anything inappropriate in it aside from one bad word but it's too scary and Yuuki's death would be too distressing for young teens to handle.

You may try it but don't expect anything too special. It's mainly something you can watch to pass the time or if you need an absurd anime to laugh at. But you may just forget about what happened in the next couple of days.
