Maybe I'm wrong, but... that castle that the characters are living in for this drama looks suspiciously similar to the one used in Atashinchi no Danshi... I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case. The opening theme is ..... kind of embarrassing to look at it. I don't know why, but it just looks so dumb, that I don't even want to look at it.
They added a little kid into the drama, which I guess spices it up slightly. The characters are no longer high school kids, but college kids. I liked the manga alright, but I'm not a big fan of it from the start so any form of change within the drama adaptation is fine with me. In fact, the changes might actually make it more interesting for me to watch... then again... I don't know. At the moment, I think Kyohei, Takenaga, and Yukinojo looks just fine, but Ranmaru is not that good-looking at all. Oh well, doesn't matter to me 'cause I wasn't ever a fan of Ranmaru in the first place lol.
The kid is the one who played Yoroku (future Kanetsugu) from Tenchijin and he's so adorable ^__^ Also, something of a 180 for me is seeing Uchi Hiroki play Takenaga -- my fave character. I will say that he has the look that I like, so I approve of him as Takenaga, but I feel weird seeing Uchi play such a smart character. The last time I watched act, he was either a loud-mouth idiot or an emo-teen. I guess, I'm feeling kind of impressed at the moment lol. Weird feeling.
Kamenashi Kazuya's acting seems forced at times to me, but he's the same-ol' same-ol'. I'm just watching it out of boredom at the moment, I think =_=; (Which tends to happen quite often with me ... I use drama to procrastinate lol). I'll have to give it at least another episode or two before I pass judgement. I've already given up on Tokujo Kabachi... it was painfully hard to get through the first episode lol. I don't think I'll be watching as many drama this season 'cause nothing stands out, but this one is manageable for me.
