Honestly I do not know how to start with Tokyo Magnitude 8.0....BUT!

There are two very strong elements made this show unforgettable!

First; the use of scientific research to simulate what would happened if an earthquake of 8.0 magnitudes would hit Tokyo... Most of destruction scenes, shaking ground and the affect afterwards... is just amazing!

Second; the story. It is based on humans’ relations, relation between child with parents, relation between brother and sister, relation between strangers. It gives the feeling of warmth. The feelings experienced in this show are true and we all could experience them. The last two episodes are the summary of all feelings and emotions experienced in the show.

Finally all I can say is "this is a show to be remembered!"
