There are so many doramas that start as romantic comedies, but quickly lose the comedy element....
Not so this one, if anything, the comedy grows by leaps and bounds, until it almost becomes a parody of itself....the fourth wall disappears almost completely....ordinarily, I would've had a problem with that, but it works very well here...
Frankly, this sequel is better than the original....
Rookies episode 1. Geez, most of these guys are way too old to be playing high school students. When Shirota Yuu's character mentioned about having to be under 18 to go in their secret room I nearly spit my drink all over my laptop. :sweat:

That was what bothered me about My Boss, My Hero. Tomoya is obviously at least 10 years older than everybody else, I'm thinking, this school has got to have the stupidest faculty and students in all of Japan. :shakehead: [/list:u]

Well, it had a lot of over-the-top comedy and that was part of it. I thought it was funny how he was so obviously older (and at least a head taller) than everyone. But they were still stupid anyway. :mrgreen:

I thought that was funny too. His age diff didn't bother me, except that he crushed on the high school girl. THAT was disturbing. :bleh:
On Topic: Before watching Galieo, I've decided to FINALLY watch the Nodame SP.
What was disturbing was the crush that Sakuranantoka had on him....that fool should have come out of the closet wearing a dress and pink lipstick.
Lmao. Sounds like this dude from Hanakimi, who had the crush on the MatsuJun lookalike:

On topic: Watched a little of Ashita no Kita Yoshio. Seems promising so far, but why do I get the feeling like everyone in this drama is out to get him? And Kohinata Fumiyo is just so adorable so far. I think I need to see more of his work. ^_^
