Heartwarming, stress relief.

The show is a definite yes from me.

Because it's under the slice-of-life category, the story doesn't have any shocking twist, it was relatable and real instead. It revolves around a group of adult friends, 3 men in a comedy group set to disband, a hard core fan of them and her sister (one of the guys' girlfriend appeared more frequently later in the show as well). The ending is built up to be bittersweet from the very beginning. Each of the character has their own backstory, struggles and distinct personality, which makes them unique - no one is a waste of time.

The acting is excellent. Everyone did their job well, turning the characters into actual people, those we can look into and reflect ourselves in their existence. I personally relate to Rihoko, so I guess you can, too, find someone with whom you can resonate your feelings. The atmosphere of the series became incredibly lively thanks to the cast.

The show is also packed with life lessons, about relationships, maturing, that sometimes you have to let go what you love because life is harsh and you have more important things to take care of, but that doesn't mean you can't live with your passions.

Long story short, it was a light-hearted, lesson-packed watch.
