「ラッキーセブン」(Luck Seven) FINAL REVIEW
「ラッキーセブン」Final Review
I really liked this drama and I recommend it not just because of Jun, but because it is a really good drama in general.
The cast was mixed very well adn they create a perfect balance between the crime-part of the story and the comedy one. In every episode the investigation is important, but the team play always gave a reason to laugh!
Almost every character in the story is important, some more, some less, but none of the 7 is left apart. Junpei was good, but my favourite was Asuka. I had sympathy for her, expecially about the disappering potatoes and other thing related with food XD She made me laugh sooo much! Her dresses were crazy, I don't understand how she couldn't feel ahaamed of dressing like that but... it's ok, it's Asuka you know... just love her XD Naka Riisa was great in this part!
Matsumoto Jun is in the fourth position as acting skills in Arashi's group (1: Nino; 2: Ohno; 3: Aiba; and then Sho in last position) and he get acting jobs just because he is terribly cool, sexy and famous.
I started feeling some changes during NatsuNiji drama and now I can say that Jun improved A LOT. He had another meaningfull role, though the drama isn't serious and is basically a crime+comedy one. The character was very well developed from the start, with a gigolo/freeter role, until the end, slowly changing in an adult/serious man who can relate with collegues and have team play with them without creating anymore trouble.
I'm glad the plot didn't insist too much on the gigolo-side of this character. Shuntaro is a cool guy, but he doesn't talk big that much about it.
I can't wait too see his next work, to check if this sensation of improvement is real =D
This is my OTP in this drama. There was no romance between them, it's true, but Shuntaro and Asuka developed a good relationship. In the beginning the didn't even allow him to call her "Asuka" without the onorific, but in the end she trusted him and they worked watching each other shoulders. Shuntaro disn't act with her like he did with other women, but in the end she accepted him and treasure him, maybe more than any other girl he charmed.
What else. The soundtrack was good. My favourite track are "Meant to be" and "Shine" as for calm melodies, while the energetc tracks I prefer are "Where it's at", "Move it" and "Lucky Seven".
As you noticed, I didn't say I lot about Shuntaro-Nitta. I'm really sick of post and images talking about their "gay relationship" =__= I didn't see anything gay... they were two "alpha male" and fight eachother, but in the end they found a balance since the boss force them to work together. They're too similar to have a really good relationship, but squabbling with eachother they found a way to cooperate. That's all. Plus, Nitta disappeared for many episodes.
In the drama I couldn't find one image that has all the seven member of the detective agency together and I was a bit upset, but, well... I decided to use one of the last scenes.
If you haven't watched this drama do it!
Final vote 8/10
