Best dorama I've seen yet

10 / 10

Granted I haven't seen many jdoramas, this is the one that got me hooked and now addicted. Ashida Mana is incredible at such a young age. Cannot believe this is not on Top 100 list. Outrage, I tell you!

A triumph

The only problem with this drama is that most others won't be able to measure up.

Every episode had chracters that interacted like real people in real situations and the end of every episode from the first to the 10th was suspensful and made the viewer on edge to see the next episode. Great ending which actually is rare, many great Doramas have not been able to end well.

beautiful and wonderful

I've only watched three episodes but I love it already, I also see how it wouldn't suite some peoples tastes. Even though I just started I'd say it's kind of like Aoi Tori without Anne Suzuki, the girl does good but she's not Anne, I think I'll write more when I finish especially if the ending is different from what I'm guessing
