I loved it. But be advised, I'm a Miki fanatic.

I thought her transition from slacker -- to politician -- to boss was very well handled.

I thought they did a pretty good job of showing the relationship/war between politicians and the press by making a city hall TV reporter a regular cast member, and a semi antagonist.

And since it's a Japanese dorama, they had to at least touch on a love story. So they hinted at her feelings for her bodyguard. He's sort of a crush, father figure, protector type for her. But it's not a romantic love story.

This is one of the shows I watched without subs. So I can't go into a lot of detail. But I will say I enjoyed the show, and found myself wanting to watch the next episode as soon as the one I'd just watched ended.

Top Lady has some comic moments. But this is a Drama, not a comedy.

There's nothing wackey in here, no silly, zany, screwball stuff.

Then again, it's certainly not as heavy or as dark as say... Sleeping Forest, or Ice World.

It's a fish out of water story. A young woman with no interst in, government, politics, or even work... comes home for her estraged father's funeral, and is talked into running for her father's job as Mayor of a fairly large city.

If you're not a Miki fan, I'd back off. Because this is her show, top to bottom.

Well, I can't say that it's horribly bad... just that I find the plot very mild... there's no part which manage to grab my attention...

But then again, tastes vary, so maybe you'll find it good.

ooohhh...

thanks Dot :mrgreen:

not really slow, i would say the tempo is quite average... just that the plot is not interesting enough for me...

ic...
okie
i have another question (if u dun mind) :bow:
is this like a tough girl story???
:headscratch:
4 Aug 2004, 18:47 #12
I dun really remember the story... but it's like what Geezer said, it's about a girl who definitely does not fit into politics, yet who actually becomes the mayor... it's not really a GTO-like tough girl story...
