こんだけ好きにならせておいて、もう終わってしまいます。日本テレビで土曜夜１０時放送の「俺の話は長い」は、今夜が最終回です。
This drama will end tonight all too soon after making me love it so much. The last episode of the drama,“Ore no Hanashi wa Nagai”, which has been broadcast at 10 p.m. every Saturday during this season, will be shown tonight.
初回からグイグイ引き込まれましたが、中だるみなど一切なく、これまで楽しませてくれました。以前、このブログで、生田斗真さん演じるこのドラマの主役、岸部満のことを、令和の寅さんと勝手に決めつけていましたが、その思いは変わっていません。映画の終わりでは、寅さんは必ず出ていきます。でも、このドラマの最終回で出ていくのは、満の姉の一家のようです。
I was into it from the first episode, and there has never been a dull episode at all, and I enjoyed every episode very much. I once assumed in this blog that the main character called Mitsuru Kishibe, who is played by Toma Ikuta, is another Tora in Reiwa, and that impression has never changed. At the end of a movie of the series, Tora leaves his uncle’s house without fail. However, it seems to be his sister, Ayako, and her family, who are going to leave their mother’s place in the last episode.

特に事件も起こらないこのドラマの面白さは、家族の会話でした。満と姉の綾子の姉弟喧嘩を軸に展開していく家族の会話は、本当にテンポがよくて、また、ふとした一言が妙に心に残るものでした。次のような言葉が心に残っています。
The most enjoyable part of this drama, in which nothing special happens, is the conversation among the family members. The tempo of the conversation, which develops along the quarrel between Mitsuru and Ayako is cheerfully fast. There has been plenty of words that someone happened to say remaining in my mind. The words that still remain in my mind are as follows.
「選ばれたから選ばれなかった」（失恋した姪の果耶への満の一言）
"You weren’t chosen because you were chosen" (This is what Mitsuru said to his niece Kaya when he heard she had a broken heart)
「美味しいコーヒーじゃなくて、いつものコーヒーが飲みたいんだ」（喫茶店ポラリスの常連の一言）
"It is not that I want to drink a tasty coffee, what I want is the usual one." (This is what a regular costumer of the coffee shop, Polaris, said)
「こたつは世界から戦争を無くす手段」（義理の兄光司とこたつを出した時の満の一言）
"Kotatsu is a means to get rid of all wars." (This is what Mitsuru said when he prepared a kotatsu with Koji, his brother in law)
「ニートブラザーズ」（満と光司のにわか音楽ユニット名）
"NEET BROTHERS" (The name of the band Mitsuru and Koji improvised )
「面接落ちても食欲落ちない」（ニートブラザーズの歌の歌詞）
"I won’t lose my appetite even if I fail the job interview." (The lyrics of a song by NEET BROTHERS)
……
なんとなく含蓄があって笑顔になる言葉ばかりです。
映画の寅さんは、年に２回帰ってきてくれました。今夜の最終回で、どんな終わりを迎えるのかわかりませんが、これから先、年に１回でいいから、お茶の間に帰ってきてほしいドラマです。
These words somehow make me smile because they seem to be full of meaning.
Tora always came back home twice a year in the movies. I don’t know how they finish this drama, but I want to watch this drama regularly in the future, even if only once a year.
