Oh man, this is the one I have been looking for the most. Thought it was a mistake because I thought this definitely…
IKR like I wanna watch them all, but this is the one I was looking forward to the most! And I thought it will be easily chosen given the cast & Sakamato Yuji but then I realised today that it hasn't been picked up :( I heard the first episode was fantastic. Hopefully someone will pick it up soon.
Try KimuTaku's HERO, way lot better than this!Don't get me wrong, this is a decent dorama but I watched HERO way…
Wow I totally forgot about that drama. I totally see the resemblance now that you pointed it out. I loved Hero! Must be like more than a decade since I watched it so I can't remember the little details of that drama except that I really loved it overall. Nonetheless, I am enjoying this for what it is, they are similar yet different :)
E1. I FREAKING LOVED IT. First of all, let me say that I loved Kuroki Haru and Takenouchi Yutaka so much. Their banter, the chemistry. These two have the potential to make this a great romcom. I really hope we will get romance & not just the legal aspect. Pretty please show. Also, it was really interesting to see that both the leads are judges (it's the first I'm seeing a drama where so many of the characters are judges)
As someone who's in the legal profession, I tend to dislike legal dramas because they dramatize & showcase the legal profession really inaccurately. The only legal drama I've really enjoyed is Devil's Attorney. This might very well be the second. Iruma's idealism & eccentricity didn't irritate me (like it usually would) even though he was out of line & Chizu made valid points. A lot of my enjoyment came from the way it was all presented. The show didn't take itself too seriously in some aspects, but I love how it meant business when it did by making it clear that Iruma's actions had implications. It had humour but there was a lot of heart.
After a great winter season of J dramas, I am glad that the next one that I started watching was this. It definitely exceeded my expectations :)
sounds appealing to me! could i ask though if it's a light-hearted drama or a heavy one (emotionally taxing so…
No, it's not emotionally taxing. I won't call it particularly light-hearted either. I'd say it's a slice of life drama with a mix of emotions. It is fun, but it is also thought-provoking. Friendship being the top thing to watch this for.
Give the first 2 episodes a try & see if it is your cup of tea :)
I was in need of something really cheesy so I managed to continue lol even though I usually can't get past such tropes. But yes this does require a lot of switching off your brain to enjoy it.. few episodes in & I'm starting to struggle with this. I might end up dropping it.
Putting all the plot inconsistencies & problematic stuff aside, I am seriously bothered by the fact that the FL can't eat as she wishes & that the ML constantly controls what she eats & even throws her food away. Like I get it that's his house but being able to choose your own food is so basic urgh. After reading her diary & how much she had to struggle for meals, I thought he'd be more empathetic towards her. Unfortunately that's not the case. It was cheesy intially & I continued putting my brain to sleep but now I'm struggling to continue..
This drama was so good, I'm surprised it's not being talked about that at all. It touched upon a lot of topics…
YES to everything you said!!! I really loved how healthy & real this drama was, & the way they managed to make it so fun despite all that. The entire cast also had great synergy together... they really felt like a family :) Damn winter J dramas this year were all so good!
BTW Okada Masaki is starring in another drama starting this week by writer Sakamato Yuji. Do check it out :)

I've liked her in the few support roles I've seen her in.

Anybody knows more siblings? I know there's the Hirose sisters, Eita & Kento.
