Review: 5/10
To be honest, I found this series a little bit boring. I happened to skip a lot of scenes that I thought not that important. For me, it lack excitement and thrill. Maybe I just found it as a very light format or I am just looking for a much more twist and side story.
But the casts were all cute and funny! I am happy I got to watched Tat-chan's "bakaness"! I just needed to adjust big time because I had recently watched his cool side in Shunjuku Seven, and then all these foolishness! Lol. He's really into acting now, doesn't he? He's really starting to become a versatile actor.
And I like the song Uepi and Shigeoka performed in one episode. Though it's a funny song, it gave me goosebumps. KAT-TUN plus Johnnys' West in one series, acting and singing while playing a guitar, it's a rare scene!
P.s. This gave me a lesson: Learn to save your money. Be frugal but in a cool way!
