Stupid Question: Isn't the building she lives in in Episode One the same building Kyon lived in in Boku Dake no Madonna? (At least from the outside?)

That building has been featured in a number of doramas.

Ah, thanks. I just happened to notice it this time.

Also, in Episode 1, she says that she graduated from medical school in 2 years. Is that normal in Japan? In the US, it's 4 years before you do an internship, although you do start in the hospitals in your 3rd year of medical school.

episode 5 eng sub is out.

Downloading Episode one.

I really want to see this series. I saw the preview, Konishi Manami act so funny in this one, I always see her in serious roles. Its so great seeing her do comedy from the previews it looks like a comedy.

This series won't be winning any Oscars, but it is fun to watch Konishi Manami acting the part of the cute innocent bunny - her character's name being Usako. It's a nice change from her usual serious, almost bitchy roles.

I hear ya...I first saw her in Ruri no Shima...hated the character she played in the beginning and thus the actress, but of course her character became more likable and so I warmed to Manami...have now seen her in a couple of other doramas (Hotman, Searchin' for My Polestar) and I like her and her performance....

PS, the fansubbers have finished subbing Kirakira Kenshui:

If I can ever get my router issues straightened out, I've gotta get this thing hardsubbed and authored, so I can watch it...

Maybe it was that she had long hair before and that created an illusion that she was short...
