I honestly don’t know what to say or think about this one! And I sure as heck don’t know if I want to continue watching, but I will partake in episode 2 before I make my final decision. Sooooooo, the heroine, Risa, is this uber, uber, uber innocent, low self esteemed, winsome beauty from the country who attends a university in Tokyo. Guys literally, and I mean literally, are falling all over themselves over her, but in her overwhelmingly annoying innocence she rejects their advances. She’s got these beautiful wide doe eyes that make her innocence all the more convincing, but she also puts herself down because of it, and that has turned me off within 10 minutes of meeting her character!
In steps our hero, Hiroto, who is handsome, sexy, and more experienced than this poor chick can certainly handle, and of course she’s honored that “ Mr Fukami,” as she calls him, is even remotely interested in her. So yeah, he seduces her in a millisecond, tells her that he fell in love with her the moment he saw her, asks her to be his girlfriend, and in turn she says “ if you think I’m worthy of being your GF, then yes”——-WTH! Who does that! Then he goes on to ignore her for a week, until she takes the first step by calling him. This girl is too dumb and gullible for me no matter how pretty she is! He talks her into sleeping with him without any fight from her at all, and I was just flabbergasted! All this in episode 1?!?!?!? Yup, he’s a 10 on the sexometer, and yup, he can kiss like nobody’s business, but I’m still at a loss here!
Sorry for the spoilers, but there was just no way I could get around my feelings and impressions of this one! J dramas are SOOOO not like this in my past experience! Yeah, you get innocent heroines, but all the ones I remember had some type of backbone! Maybe Risa will grow one, but I may not even get that far to see it!!!
