NHK Taiga drama “What’s Wrong with Ieyasu” starring Arashi’s Jun Matsumoto ranks second?
Many TV dramas were broadcast in 2023 as well. Although there were blockbuster hits like “VIVANT” (TBS), there is a strong feeling that it was a “poor” year overall.
Therefore, this magazine conducted its own questionnaire survey. We asked 500 TV-loving women from around the country in their 20s to 50s which TV drama that aired in 2023 was the most “least interesting” or “disappointing.” The target was 12 works that had become a hot topic but had not been well-received.
Now, let’s take a look at the top 5 “disappointing dramas of 2023.”

[5th place]37 votes “Occupy of the Large Hospital” (Starring Sho Sakurai, Nippon Television Network, from January)
Two works tied for fifth place with the same number of votes. Why are you “disappointed”?
“All the performers, including Mr. Sakurai, are so bad at acting. It’s at the level of a school performance.” (20s, office worker, Aichi prefecture)
“Sakurai-kun, he’s not very athletic, so why did he play such a role? There were so many characters, and I didn’t really understand them.” (50s, temporary worker, Chiba Prefecture)
“The quality of that CG is a bit… Viewers these days are very discerning.” (20s, part-time job, Miyagi Prefecture)
From January 2024, the sequel “XXX Occupation” (tentative title) starring Sho Sakurai will be broadcast again, but we wonder what will happen.
[5th place]37 votes “Holding Hands at Dusk” (Starring Suzu Hirose TBS, January onwards)
“As a local, I felt disgusted by the portrayal of people from Kyushu. I felt like Kyushu was being made fun of.” (30s, housewife, Fukuoka Prefecture)
“I like Ren Nagase, so I watched it with high expectations, but the story was so boring that I left midway through.” (30s, housewife, Tokyo)
[4th place]42 votes “Paripi Komei” (starring Osamu Mukai, Fuji TV network, from September)
“The anime was super interesting and I was looking forward to the live-action version, but unfortunately my image was ruined.” (30s, office worker, Kagawa Prefecture)
“As good as the anime was, I had a strong sense that it wasn’t this way.” (40s, office worker, Nara Prefecture)
Most had similar opinions.
[3rd place]49 votes “Midsummer Cinderella” (Starring Nana Mori, Fuji TV, July onwards)
“The plot was so clichéd that I wasn’t thrilled at all.” (20s, housewife, Tokyo)
“The heroine’s child is too potato-like. I’d like to know what demographic you created it for.” (20s, office worker, Kanagawa Prefecture)
The audience ratings were an absolute disaster, setting the record for the Fujitsuki 9 slot.
[2nd place]90 votes “What to do with Ieyasu” (Starring Jun Matsumoto, NHK from January)
“It seems that Ieyasu was impossible for Matsujun after all. It lacked a sense of dignity.” (30s, part-time, Shizuoka Prefecture)
“I like taiga dramas, but this one is too weird. It’s probably a problem with the script. It’s a shame because the last episode, Kamakura-dono, was good.” (30s, unemployed, Akita prefecture)
“I love Matsumoto-kun. But the image is too different. I shouldn’t have done it…” (50s, civil servant, Nagano Prefecture)
[1st place]130 votes “ONE DAY ~Holy Night’s Karamou~” (Starring Kazunari Ninomiya, Fuji Television Network, October onwards)
“Three stories unfold, but they’re too complicated to enjoy easily.” (20s, temporary worker, Tokyo)
“I think it would be interesting if it were made into a movie. But if it were made into a drama, it would be too long. It’s a shame because we had such good actors.” (30s, housewife, Osaka Prefecture)
“I had high hopes because the pre-broadcast advertisement made it look like it would be very interesting, but once it started, I was disappointed. Ninomiya’s acting ability is also questionable.” (20s, office worker, Aichi prefecture)
Surprisingly, the works starring Sakurai, Matsu Jun, and Ninomiya, all of whom starred in Arashi, were ranked in the top five. The average household viewership rating for “ONE DAY” is 5.3% up to the 10th episode broadcast on December 11th (according to Video Research, Kanto area). It is certain that it will fall below the 5.7% of “Midsummer Cinderella,” which recorded the lowest viewership rating ever for “Fujitsuki 9.”
The 7th place and below are as follows.
[7th place]28 votes “Kochika Kazama -Kyojo 0-” (Starring Takuya Kimura, Fuji Television Network, April~)
[7th place]28 votes “Fermat’s Cooking” (starring Fumiya Takahashi, TBS series, from October)
