Silent (stylized as silent) (Japanese: サイレント, Hepburn: Sairento) is a 2022 romantic Japanese television drama starring Haruna Kawaguchi and Ren Meguro.[2] It aired on Fuji Television during the network's prime time slot on Thursday evenings.[3] The series was critically acclaimed for its depiction of deafness, its realistic dialogue, and Meguro and Kawaguchi's performances, breaking the record for the most "catch-up viewers" (number of viewers who watched episodes between airing and the next episode) on streaming in Japanese history.[4][5]
Synopsis
[edit]Tsumugi Aoba (Haruna Kawaguchi) and Sou Sakura (Ren Meguro) dated in their third year of high school through their common interest in music but one day after graduation, Sou suddenly broke up with her without giving any reason and disappeared. Eight years passed and one day, Tsumugi spots Sou in a crowd. Wanting to meet him once more and have a proper talk, Tsumugi begins to look for him, but she learns the unexpected truth that he suffers from early-onset bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, which gradually weakens the hearing, and has almost completely lost his hearing.[3]

Production
[edit]Silent is written by Miku Ubukata, winner of the 2021 Fuji Television Young Scenario Award, after she was recruited by producer Ken Murase. It is her first serialized drama series. After being tasked with programming for the network's weekday evening drama slot, Murase wanted the series to be based on a love story that was focused on the sentimentality of love rather than flashiness and extravagance.[6]
Meguro and Kawaguchi were casted as the leads in the series prior to the writing of the script. Ubukata used footage and past works of both actors to base the dialogue of the script. The script was written in consultation with individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and Ubukata also attended sign language classes.[8] The production of the series was also in consultation with individuals who are hard of hearing, deaf or children of deaf adults who also served as onset supervisors.[8]
Filming took place in Tokyo at local landmarks including Setagaya-Daita Station and the Tower Records building in Shibuya.[6]
