This beautifully moving drama is based on the real-life struggles of a 15-year-old girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease, but lived life to the fullest until her death at 25. The script is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen. The book that later followed entitled “One Litre of Tears" has sold over 1.1 million copies in Japan alone.
Fifteen year old Ikeuchi Aya was just a normal girl, soon to be high school student and daughter of a family who works at a shop that makes tofu. As time passed, unusual things started happening to Aya lately. She started falling down often and walks in a strange way. Her mother Shioka, takes Aya to see the doctor, and he informs Shioka that Aya has spinocerebellar degeneration - a terrible disease where the cerebellum of the brain gradually deteriorates to the point where the victim cannot walk, speak, write, or eat. A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least. How will Aya react when told about her disease? And how will Aya live from now on?

Get the litre-o-cola mug.A gentleman who considers it absolutely no bother to consume 6 litres of vodka over a music festival weekend. Whilst it is unlikely that a "6 Litre Joe" would consume the vodka straight from the bottle, it is perfectly feasible that he would fill up a pint glass with equal measures of vodka and mixer.
Bish: "Ooooftt whit! That boy in on his sixth litre of vodka in two days"
Marco: "Aye san, i've been watching his progress- he is a 6 Litre Joe if ever I saw one"
