Okay, it's not Waterboys, but the first appeal of Dandori comes the irrepressible cuteness of the cast, particularly the head. The plot is strictly by the numbers, and it's difficult to point out memorable scenes (much less gags). Certainly, some may find it difficult to forgive its weaknesses - but the girls are really kind of adorable. If you're willing to enjoy it for what it is, Dandori is an engaging-enough teen drama.

Not waterboys

A lot of people are comparing it to waterboys, but it's not... really. They are both based on a school sports club and both have cross dresser, but that's it. Waterboys is way better.

Some episodes are so cheesy, it's unbelievable. Not funny like waterboys and not as spectacular as well. Some aren't so bad, so you may watch it till the end.

I'd prefer putting a pineapple up my butt than to watch that again. Yes, a pineapple... Pretty girls doesn't make up for boring story.
