The situations created in each episode are so contrived but that's not the main problem, which is Shibasaki Kou. She looks pissed and constantly pouting when ever the camera points at her. She's clearly an incapable actress and she's not that attractive at all. I ended up fastforwarding every scene with her in. In the end, I just don't care about the internal struggle of her nor the story at all.

Noriko Fujuwara is great, gorgeous and wonderful in her few TV appearances. However, I can't vouche for Kusanagi Tsuyoshi who is horribly miscasted in this role.

He looks shorter and smaller than Norika and the two don't make a good pair. Eguchi Yousuke will be a much better everyday salaryman than Tsuyoshi.

The first 7 episodes are halirious but the final 4 episodes are horrible when the story is clearly going nowhere, just waiting to come to a stop somehow.

I fast forwarded through the final three episodes and I didn't think I missed anything.

In all, I just don't care about Kaoru's dead fiance pitch, including the late twist involving the dead fiance look alike.

Tasurou and Junpei's performances carry the whole show and is delightful to watch. But when it comes to Karou's part, I found myself fast forwarding a lot.

No bad at all but certainly doesn't deserve the legendary status fans bestow upon it.
