Hikari will perform household chores to perfection for the sake of her husband, Kubota Masazumi. Her own life is only to support him. Kubota, a newscaster, takes pride in his popularity because of his outspoken remarks despite the conventions of sponsors and the television network. His behaviour mobilises public opinion and he wishes that he can change society with his words. Kubota owes his position as main newscaster on the news programme to the support of his wife of six years too. But why does Hikari devote herself completely to him? The certain characteristic that Kubota’s wife possesses is an enigma, and a shocking development awaits him. Edit Translation

Reviews
The story is not really great but it’ll make you want to know what was really happen to this couple. And i cried for once when she told him about her past.
The cast is just as good as the story. The husband is really cute when with his wife. And the wife who just likes a robot had a really unique personality.
The music is good, and i really like the song that the wife always sings every episodes.

Would have been great as a 5 episode drama or tanpatsu. The drama might be trying to make the viewers commit seppaku at the end.
Japan has the worse record of gender inequality among developed nations and dramas like this seem to celebrate it instead of criticize it. Abenomics will be a failure if Japan cannot get rid of sexism on TV even a little bit.
