This is the kind of gag that always manages to be amusing. The drama starts off with a story of a stunning, eligible girl - but the plot is deliberately hijacked by her best friend, a temp who thinks that every guy is interested in her. The comedy is buoyant and frequently LOL funny.

Becky has the lead role as Riri, a heroine who's so positive-minded that nearly everything she says (or thinks) is wildly distorted. This drama's concept catches fire at around episide 6, and, at its best, continues as a meta-parody of Japanese dramas. True, the writing is rather blunt as opposed to razor sharp, but the unique concept makes this a nice diversion.

Good job, Becky!

Another drama I went in to with no expectations, and another drama Ifve completed feeling wholly satisfied. For her first role as the lead protagonist, Becky does an amazing job. Shefs everything her character needed to be: irritating, frustrating, annoying, pathetic, and downright unnerving. At first it was hard to watch the episodes because her character made the experience so exasperating. Yet, the more I watched, the more I realized that the drama itself was getting frustrated with her as well. The other characters expressed what I, the viewer, felt, and it dawned upon me that this was the point. As a viewer, I was SUPPOSED to feel frustrated and annoyed, the narrator constantly reminds me that I should.

This drama is a light comedy that makes fun of itself. The animation is reallyc wellc animated, and some scenes are downright hilarious because of its lame antics (characters being replaced by dummies comes to mind). Kyoutaro (Kashiwabara Shuji) and Anna (Anzu Sayuri) make perfect secondary characters, and without either (especially Kyoutaro, for which Kasiwabara did an excellent and hilarious job in portraying), the drama simply wouldnft exist.

I tip my hat to the creators. The concept of this drama was really interesting and kept me hooked, Riri withstanding. ;)

Mitai naaaaaaaaaa

A light romantic comedy. This is Becky's first lead role and she doesn't disappoint. They're not taking themselves seriously, like when someone is replace with a dummy.

Becky's really annoying, yet, you can't really hate her. Great cast and tongue-in-cheek humor. Recommended. ^_^
