This is not the best of Aya Ueto but I enjoyed some parts. If you are looking to see some comedy you can watch it and have "some" fun.

The drama was great!! It was a light and funny drama, with great performances from Ueto Aya and Kamiji Yusuke.
The ending, however, ruined everything for me. It made absolutely no sense, and I probably would have been happier if they didn't end up together. I have to say that this is probably one of the worst drama endings I've ever seen.

Because of the horrendous ending, I have to give this drama a 4/10. I'm giving it an extra point for a great ending song by one of my favorite band, ikimono gakari.

All I can say is WTF?! (Read full review)

Okay, heres the thing. This drama is great! Really. But only up to Ep 9. The drama is full of comedy with sparks of romance. Aya's performance is great in portraying a spoiled rich girl, while Kajimi did an okay job in playing a loud (and annoying) poor single father. Everything in the plot is going well for the first 9 episodes, then in the last 2 eps, everything just went out of wack. Seriously. Its as if the producers had spend too much money in getting Aya's outfit that they had to fire their original script writing crew and got another cheap lazy crew to come up with some crappy story to fill the last 2 eps. Not only is it bad, its as if the new story crew tried to fit in ideas from other dramas to make a 'dramatic' ending. I just finished watching the drama, and was very fustrated at how they decided to end the series. It simply did not make ANY sense. Let me repeat: IT DID NOT MAKE ANY SENSE!
For all those looking into watching this series, take my suggestion: Ep 1-9 is great, go ahead and watch. I'd give a solid 8.5/10 for it. But for the last 2 eps, just simply ignore or take it as a spin off or smth. Never had I've seen such a dramatic change in story style and plot in a japanese drama EVER. Lastly, I just wished they could have done better in making a fitting ending to the story.
