Good Vehicle for Ueno Juri
7 / 10Wynter · 2010
I liked it. It was a good vehicle for Ueno to show off her acting ability, but even moreso for the writers/directors to really fashion something creative and compelling.
As for my favourite, I liked Chapter Three. Ifm not sure if itfs because there was more to it than just Ueno, therefore more characters to get attached to (or at least have the option to) or because it seemed to be more layered than the others.
I found the episodes too short to make an impact, and therefore all five episodes are pretty forgettable. I wish they had given Juri-chan a bit more variety in the characters. She seemed to act the same for all roles.
Glitch: In Chapter Two (HOPE), Miyuki enters the elevator and plays with her wallet. When shefs finally able to leave the elevator, the wallet is filmed on the ground – left behind by her. When she returns later, and inevitably decides to use the stairs instead, the same elevator door opens. There is no wallet within.
