Well, I watched this drama 3 years ago..
I always noticed that youngest bro in this drama.. That time, I think he's cute in a unique way.. I nver get to know his name though cos I was still young and nver surf the net for this type of web specially for jdrama's fans..
I watched Kurosagi a few weeks ago..Kurosagi's face is so familiar..
and then, I remember, he's dat cool youngest bro.. I check with this web for confirmation..It's true.. Yamapi is always so coooool :thumbsup: :say_cool:
This drama is awesome.. ;)
But, I'm not satisfied with the ending
The drama had a great start, and even though random incidents occurred, the randomness could still be forgiven since the drama was light and funny and very entertaining. Wellc to an extent. I found that around episode 7 or 8, the drama began to wear thin. Ideally, the story should have come to a close after the run-in with Shuuji, since he managed to bring out the story of Natsumifs past. However, the plot kept going and therefore got out of hand. For example, the Miss Nihonbashi Queen contest. What was the purpose of it? It was just filling space. The drama got stretched out too thin, and although it was still fun and grand, it could have ended earlier than it did, and thereby making it more of a success in my eyes.
Spoiler — click to revealI did like how they managed to close off all the loose ends (i.e. Natsumifs relationship with Shuuji, Yujirofs relationship/situation with Hidemi, Tomo-chanfs outgrowing of Jun-kun, etc.). However, they left the actual ending wide open. Perhaps theyfre planning on a second season, or a special. In any case, it would have been nice to see who shefd end up with, but I found the end nonetheless appropriate.
I also enjoyed the cast quite a bit. I fully understand Natsumifs confusion with all those gorgeous boys around. I donft know whom Ifd have picked either! Mind you, the acting was even better than the eye candy. The actors matched the personality types perfectly, which added to the success of the drama. This was my first time seeing Eguchi Yosuke in action, and although I spent the majority of the show drooling over Tsumabuki Satoshi, in the end I was cheering for Eguchi-san. Both Tsumabuki and Yamada Takayuki were brilliant, which I expected of them since I consider both awesome actors. Even Yamapi, who was the weakest of all the actors in this drama, pulled through and managed to portray his character well. And lets not forget Takeuchi Yuko. She was the powerhouse of this drama with her charisma and loveable smile. No matter the criticism, this drama is worth watching just for her.
This was an all around fun drama. Regardless of the rather laboured last few episodes, it was still good and a delicious watch.

LOL! I know, I know. But you must admit that the term "Pretty Boys" comes with a lot of baggage, and I didn't want you to think that's all there was to it.
Speaking of which, I could really go for some omurice right now. :drooling:

This was the first Japanese drama I ever watched. It was running on tv when I lived in Taiwan and my wife (Japanese) found it and we watched some of it, then got some VCD's so that we could watch the whole thing.

I'm glad you liked it! There are a lot of food dramas out there for you to watch! I particularly recommend Kuitain 1 and 2. :D
I liked every bit of it. I usually enjoy this mix of fun, action, romance, and food !
Food is a very important part of the Japanese culture, so it makes sense that so many Doramas revolve around food, or have so many eating scenes in them (in restaurants, at home around the family dinner).
This one made me reminisce about the Omurice that I used to have sometimes when I was in Japan - Shortly after I was trying to do my own. Hmmm :good:
