I watched the 1st episode and no offence, but I thought the acting was really bad. Despite a lacklustre first eppy rating, I believe the ratings will improve in subsequent episodes. The pretty boys & pretty girls formula always work! Haha.

"tomohisa SAMA"
just love you as Naoki - surely displaying alot more natural emotions (not like Akira - the comedian).
You are "freaking rocking HOT" *fangirl screams"
Just checked out the first episode raw to improve my Japanese listening comprehension, and I probably missed out on a lot, but I have to say this isn't as terrible as I thought it would be...pretty sweet actually
A few things I particularly enjoyed were the chemistry between Kitagawa Keiko and Kanjiya Shihori (I could see them as being great friends in real life!), the background music selection (B'z and the Beatles! They played a very charming variation of "A Day in the Life" and I couldn't help but grin), and the product placement, lol. I've read somewhere that Kitagawa Keiko is a great fan of Murakami Haruki, and in one of the bookstore scenes, they pan the camera so you can see a clear shot of his latest book 1Q84 on sale. I thought that was cute.
Other than that, there were a lot of moé moments, which I don't mind so much, but I do hope that won't end up being the main focus of the drama...I also thought it was funny how Yamapi (who is in desperate need of a hair cut) looks so puny next to Ito Hideaki!

i watched 1st ep last night and i have to say Yamapi's acting was not as bad as people say. ok, i might have a soft spot for him after watching NWP but it did not blind my eyes for not see his poor actings.
but he does look like kimutaku now. specially with that hair.
kitagawa was great in there. considering how i feel about Aibusuck's acting i really did not expect something great of her anyway.
Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:
but i found it very funny when she was cheating on Yamapi/Naoki. kind of dejavu?
I think i will carry one watching to see what happens. but i am fastforwarding all the basketball games. I can't stand sport based dramas. _________________
Naoki drives to the basket going right. Force him to go left and he's done! Watching these guys play ball is frustrating. Still I'll watch again next week. I kinda like Aibu Saki as a bad girl.

LOL, sounds like how the Lakers play defense at times...
