| 1. | Young Love [Rating: 6/10] Typical guy meets girl. Guy is head over heels with girl but unsure whether feeling is mutual. They all strive to study hard so as to get into the Prestigious Tokyo University. Viewers get to see a very young Takenouchi Yutaka (quite a funny sight). |

| 2. | Errr..... [Rating: 7/10] An interesting starting with Goro voicing the inner thoughts of the hardworking top student who, suddenly, has his hormones stirred when he meets Asaka. So go the next four or five episodes where he constantly worries himself over the vulnerable relationship.
If the story had gone on this way I suppose the plot would have some thematic coherence to it but then later Ide Kaoru comes along, and what have you, goro pulls a two timing without himself realising it.
The point of the show, as the title implies, is probably the entrance of goro into tokyo U, with him being so uptight over it and with the audience kept on tenterhooks as to whether asaka will thwart the path to his goals. Sadly, he does't get into Tokyo U in the end, and ironically this is not because of asaka. So the scriptwriter played a trick on us. Goro was foiled by his own stupidity and undulating sentiments.
I suppose, however, the ending does convey the message that the university one enters isn't the end of the world. What you do with your life and the decisions you make is. |
