The drama is light and has some cute/nice moments, but overall it was the most annoying show Ifve seen in a long time. Ifm sure I remember enjoying Aibu Saki in her previous dramas, so Ifll blame this completely on the character: Oba Nobuko was terribly annoying. I couldnft stand her. She was fine in the first few episodes, or perhaps I just hadnft realized yet how annoying she really was. Eventually I began to cringe whenever she opened her mouth. Itfs a good thing Aibu Saki is adorable. If I were watching her for the first time, Ifd think her talentless and overly exaggerated as an actress. Even Moko was annoying. What was the director thinking making them act like this? I didnft find either endearing.

The other problem I had with this show was Buukofs constant rebounding. She would rebound – and wefre talking like 80 pounds here – in less than a week, and then lose it in that much time. Give me a break.

Ifm not sure I would recommend this drama. If you like the leads, then watch for their sake, otherwise skip it.
