En 2004, Noguchi Takahiro et sa femme Naoko sont assassinés. Quatre personnes étaient présentes sur les lieux du crime : Sugishita Nozomi, son ami d'enfance Naruse Shinji, ses voisins Ando Nozomi et Nishizaki Masato. Ce dernier a avoué à la police le meurtre de Takahiro qui aurait lui-même auparavant tué sa propre épouse. Dix ans plus tard, Masato vient d'être libéré. Un policier à la retraite du nom de Takano Shigeru persuadé qu'il a couvert quelqu'un vient lui poser des questions sur l'affaire qui l'a mené en prison et notamment sur Sugishita Nozomi. En fait, le policier a connu la jeune femme en 2000 quand elle était encore lycéenne sur une petite île de la mer de Seto où il était en service. À cette époque, Sugishita avait connu de difficiles problèmes familiaux et avait déjà été mêlée à des incidents. Takano est convaincu qu'elle est au cœur du meurtre du couple Noguchi.

Critiques
The scenery was beautiful. Long shots of the entire setting allows us to feel like we're watching things happen from a far. Although the shots seem 3rd person point of view, you are still connected to each character. They are all encouraging characters with clear motives. Each one is given a good amount of time in every episode to tell their side of the story. You may grow to hate a character but also understand why a character would do such a thing. It makes you really think not just of the mystery, but what it's like to be human. You grow as the characters grow.
The story / events aren't shown in chronological order. It jumps from time to time - but it was a perfect way to transition into things. The soundtrack is just beautiful! When you listen to certain songs you can definitely link it to a precise moment in the drama. They are also played at the perfect moments.
When you complete the drama you'll feel like you've witnessed someone's entire life and that kind of made me feel complete. What made me love the drama even more was how it presented hints to the mystery all along but I didn't find them until my second time watching. On my second watching, it felt familiar but also shocking. I was baffled by how subjective I was. It amused me to see how arrogant I could be just like some of the characters.
The story is slow paced, but it's extremely addictive. It's very mysterious you never know what's going to happen, and I didn't figure out what happened during ''the day of the incident'' until a few seconds before that scene started. I loved the way they used the scenes of ''the day of the incident'' throughout all the episodes, adding a few more seconds to the scene in each episode. There were a ton of beautiful moments too. Also, the character development was brilliant.
The acting was AWESOME. Nana Eikura was amazing, she did a great job playing Nozomi, one of the best performances I've seen in a while. Masataka Kubota, Kento Kaku and Keisuke Koide did a fantastic job, too.
The music was SPECTACULAR. This is probably the best OST I've ever heard in a japanese drama. I can't stop listening to it. And the theme song is really beautiful.
The cinematography was so beautiful that it left me astonished. You need to watch this in HD.
To sum up, N no Tame ni is a really mysterious and beautiful drama, filled with great performances, a fantastic story, outstanding music and a spectacular cinematography. You really need to watch this as soon as possible.
