I've haven't really finished watching this series (i've only seen 6 episodes) but it's actually a pretty good series. It's kind of the same (in a way) as Kimi Wa Petto. For Anego the cast was pretty good. Jin's so cute in this dorama ^.^

anego..!! at first, i was hesitated to buy this dorama, no specific reason, it's just that i am not that much of a -young guy-older woman- relationship kind of person... well now that most japanese doramas seem to be head over heels with that idea, i have learnt to accept it..., a little.
Anyhow, on with the dorama..., cant believe that this one is indeed very enjoyable to watch. 32 then, now 33 yrs old lady, loveless, marriedless, relationshipless, one couldnt ask for a more insecure position other than that of Noda Naoko. She is frantic, in need to be saved before her chance's up. Dying to find happiness thru a blissfull marriage, she dragged herself from one relationship to another, only to find that are too many to be altered for the sake of what so called 'happiness'. what an ambitious word a hapiness is.
Then, of corse, there is this young attractive guy, so simple, uncomplicated, kurosawa akihiko, who attracted to her but wasn't sure whether he wanted her as a keep. understandable, since he is only 22 yrs old. Have to admit the chemistry between the two. they thought us that love, and furthermore marriage, isnt all about being properly in love, properly happy, properly accepted.
I still laugh in Naoko's mom comment on their age gap, in which i found very sincere, "dont worry when he is 72 and you (naoko) would be 83, and woman lives longer than man". yes, afterall, what the heck..., who needs to be bound by age in this game anyway...
love it!!

I've only seen 3 eps so far as well, because my Japanese isn't good enough to watch a dorama without English subs ^^U, and I've enjoyed the three of them very much.

This dorama focus quite well in the life of a single middle-aged working woman, and I must confess the main two characters are just lovely. The role of Noda Naoko is impressively taken by Shinohara Ryoko, she clearly shows what a good actrice she is. And as for Akanishi Jin, I didn't expect him to be so good! He's not only handsome and charming, he has also acting abilities! I couldn't help but to fall in love with him, ever since the supermarket scene in the 2nd ep (don't worry, I'm not going to make a spoiler), 'coz he didn't show off much in the first one.

It looks worth it, want to see more though :P

i only watched 3 episodes so far! but it looks great! the cast is wonderful! i like Shinohara Ryoko and Akanishi Jin, the story line is nice and i can relate to the story, since im a single, working woman. i wish someone will sub the rest of the episodes in English!

Enjoyed the dorama, it's very funny & thought provoking at the same time, gets you thinking about certain moral issues & you wonder if social norms should change now that we're in the 21st century.

Great performance by the cast, including the supporting actors, very enjoyable show.

I've always liked these kind of story plots... older woman with a younger man. The story is nice and the characters act awfully well and it's cute.

This is the kind of drama that I've been waiting for. It showed many aspects of early 30's women's problem. Ryoko Shinohara has done a great job. A surprising performance by Jin after Gokusen 2. He could act like a real young adult in this drama.
Anyway, this is a heartwarming drama that everyone should watch. Aside good story line you gotta see all the good lines of casting!!
