I had pretty great expectations for this "Konto ga Hajimaru", given how it was written by the same scriptwriter who had previously penned that little masterpiece by the name of "Ore no Hanashi wa Nagai", and also considering how the three male leads (Suda Masaki, Kamiki Ryunosuke and Nakano Taiga) are basically the top of the crop of young J-actors (yep, as I stated in my profile, I do pay much more attention to *actresses*...but that doesn't mean I can't be objective when faced with acting talent), and I'm happy to be able to say, this drama didn't let me down.
The script, just as expected, was really very good (maybe not *absolutely* perfect, but pretty close); the cast was great (kudos also to the female leads: I knew I was gonna get a good performance by Arimura Kasumi, but I must confess not knowing well the other two, Furukawa Kotone and Yoshine Kyoko, and they were a nice surprise, both really beautiful AND talented - particularly the former, playing that marvelous character!), and the "packaging" (directing, editing, photography, OST) was, as I consider totally key, perfectly supporting the script, rather than trying to stand out so as to cover its faults (as it is, alas, the case of many modern series, all form and too little substance).
All in all, highly recommended! ^___^
