Story gets better as the episodes continue with nice development of the characters. There's plenty of funny moments but yet touching ones too.
Shinohara Ryoko puts up classic performance throughout, proving that she's definitely one of the best female actors in Japan. The supporting cast were great too. |

This is a good one. It's funny, sharp, and just very enjoyable overall. I can still hear the flamenco music every time I think of this series. |

Lovely watch. Amazing script. Don't expect a lot to happen in terms of plot, but the snarky, quick-witted dialogue will make you laugh out loud. |

April 2007: One of my fave this season so far. Shinohara Ryoko can pull of almost any role, can't get enough of her. The relationship between Haruko and the rest are interesting. At first all of them hated/ annoyed by her but in the end, they managed to 'see through' her in their own way. It's kinda unrealistic though, how can she managed to get so many certificates?? That's just crazy O.o |

awesome!!! i liked this series very much! funny, witty, very kekkon dekinai otoko-ish comedy yet has deep ideas instilled in it~ it gave me a newfound appreciation for hakens, though i've never known of their existence before.. shinohara ryoko rocks! the love story between kurukuru paamu & tokkuri was also a fun watch! =D |

Overall, it is a good drama. All the actors and actresses did a good job. Of course, I love Shinohara san and Koizumi san pretty much. |

Pretty good. Love Shinohara's character in here as a no-nonsense Super-Haken. Heard there'll be a season 2... |

another worth-watching dorama |

The reason I watched this one is totally because of the main actress. And of course 涼子 didn't disappoint me. 加藤愛 was good too (though I am a bit upset about the fact that this is just another supporting role for her).
New genre this surely is, a drama about haken! Good plots, very uplifting, but sometimes a bit overacted and exaggerated. |

Cast is not particularly great but One of the better dorama this season. A story about the life of a `super` temp worker. Despite her superb abilities in the office she has quite some yet-to-be-revealed baggage from the past which forbids her from trusting others/corporate/enterprise. So far the episodes strike a good balance between office work, comedy, romance, temp worker and her own demon (which is the boring part). |

I am still watching this drama, but I am loving it. I would think it is the best of the lot for the winter 2007 season. Shinohara Ryoko is a riot. Love her! Her great acting skills are put into great use in portraying the challenges and prejudices faced by haikens (temp contract workers) in the Japanese corporate world "ruled" by permanent salaried workers. |

tokkuri and kurukurupaama are just too funny. XD |
| 16. | Comments by cheery [Rating: 8/10]
Quite a interesting show by Shinohara. Although she acts as a very stern woman, there are really fun moments in the drama. |

One of the most enjoyable over the top dramas I've seen lately. Shinohara Ryoko plays an OL who makes a good salary, but doesn't stay in one company for more than 3 months. She's a mystery to most of her coworkers because she's diligent and very quirky about certain things (like leaving the office at the exact time the shift ends).
Anyway, the charm of this drama is the acting from the cast and the interactions amongst the coworkers. They were often times very funny and each character was likeable in his or her own way. You wanted to see what would happen to them in the end and you wanted some sort of romance to happen between Omae Haruko and the curly perm or Satonaka. This drama is definitely worth watching. |

Not bad, but not great either. The overall plot is pretty boring and predictable, but I would watch it for the entertainment value and its hilarious moments. It is different kind of role for Shinohara Ryoko as compared to her other dramas. Best thing about the drama: the theme song "Mienai Hoshi" by Nakashima Mika *thumbs up* |

shinohara ryoko is fun to watch as a superhaken. |
| 20. | Comments by natzumi [Rating: 8/10]
Ryoko has taken so much macho woman role lately. She's such a delight to watch. I'm happy for her success. Wonderful drama! I wanna be like her LOL. |
| 21. | Comments by g_hunter1 [Rating: 8/10]
The story deals with an office temp that can almost do anything. She has a varitey of licences and certifications that would make any worker jealous. Makes you wonder why doesn't she have a regular job? Gonna have to watch it find out. I really enjoyed the drama. |

I love Ryoko san but not in this dorama.
The characters are unreal, the screenwritter has overdone the heroine-ness of Omae-san and the inutility of Miyuki-chan. |
| 24. | Comments by TampaBayRocky [Rating: 8/10]
Entertaining dorama.... Shirota + flamenco = OTP ^________^;;; |
| 25. | Comments by Smiley_18 [Rating: 7/10]
Personally, I think it's one of the best of this season. The actress in this drama is good. The plot is good, since it reflects the reality of the working labour in Japan right now. |

Another new drama that I didn't regret at all picking up in 2007. I wasn't really interested in the casts, but a friend of mine insisted that it's a must-watch and shoved it in my face. It's very motivating and I ended up really liking all the characters. |
| 27. | Comments by Ezalor [Rating: 5/10]
Watched the first 4 episodes so far, but it's so sterile and deadpan that it bores me to a greater extent I can bear. |
| 28. | Comments by Signo [Rating: 6/10]
great perfomance, but the story is boring. (there is nearly no story) |
| 29. | Comments by zhirong [Rating: 8/10]
A pretty good drama imo. Super Ryoko can do so many things in it, unbelievable. I like her acting alot. She fits into the role perfectly! |
| 30. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 9/10]
Super lady Haru-chan takes on annoying male emplyees and win!
I enjoyed her role because some Japanese males can be portrayed as such Big
Jerks!!! |

I definitely think this wasn't Shinohara's best role/drama. I personally found her character offensive and needlessly rude and callous. I really didn't see the reason for her cold attitude. Yes, she got laid off once before, but so what? Her character also seemed somewhat... I don't know.. manly? Her ability to do so many jobs -was- funny, though... But I felt a constant sympathy for Koutaro's character, especially when he has that adorably sheepish and pitiful expression. Anyway, watching everyone around Omae getting stepped all over by her was terrible. But there was a reason I finished watching it: It truly was funny and cute at many parts, especially once Omae stopped being a bitch to everyone. Also, the remaining cast was also wonderful. It was kind of nice watching it, but I wouldn't watch it again. |

Excellent performance by Shinohara Ryoko! |
| 33. | Comments by zappie [Rating: 9/10]
Just finished watching the show.. it was FANTASTIC!! can really relate a lot to the show.. its understandable that the ratings were high. Love it. There's mixture of comedy, little romance, office politics, touching moments and so many others that you can learn from her. She's amazing. Too bad that she only wanted to work for 3 months in each company. But sure glad that there's a sequel.. Looking forward to it very much.. and I hope that the original casts could return especially if there could be a love triangle :) A great show! |

Good comedy about office life, though it can get abit exaggerated at times. |
| 39. | Comments by marspeach [Rating: 10/10]
Shinohara Ryoko is the best actress ever! Loved watching every minute of her as Oomae Haruko. "Nani ka?" This drama was so addicting I couldn't believe when it ended! |

Ryoko Shinohara was cool in this comedy drama. |
| 44. | Comments by joykimlee [Rating: 10/10]
Shinohara-san rox! Even better than Anego. Though not my preferred pairing. |
| 45. | Comments by EstherM [Rating: 8/10]
I have a soft spot for office dramas (I blame it on Ricky Gervais) and Shinohara Ryoko, I had to check this one out. I politely overlooked the Japanese interpretation of Spain and Andalucia but the whole drama stayed a mixed bag until the end. There were certain issues and stories I enjoyed, and certain things I deemed ridiculous. Wonder temps who save the the day every day do not exist. |
| 46. | Comments by DukeGonzalez [Rating: 9/10]
haha funny when she quarrel with that curly guy..
turtleneck?!! lol... |
| 47. | Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 4/10]
I give this a 4 because anybody over the age of 4 would never believe this plot. |
