mata Sato Jiro iru? hahahaaaaaaaaaaa yatta!
Ghosty Anne! I went straight ahead to watch this as soon as I saw the promo poster ^ above. Anne as a ghost in a comedy drama.... after just finishing XXXholic...? Yes please! Surprised (why after all this time) to see Baka Sato Jiro appear as a stupid fast talking crazy ass ghost also.
Something strange about the new deputy head at a school, twinned with the new arrival of a homeroom teacher who can see ghosts. Anne is cute and sulky and ridiculous, and when Sato Jiro turned up I nearly choked. (^_^)
Putting her head inside the telephone to call Kamiyama (Katori Shingo), getting involved in all the student's problems, disappearing and reappearing in inappropriate moments, wearing ...odd ...clothes ....
So this brings me to the bland as hell Maeda Atsuko. I loved her as a robot in Q10, but she really annoyed me in Yamapi is an undertaker - whatever the hell that drama was really called. I figured out that her emotionless robot was great because she had no expressions, and also in this drama it works because she is a total bitch. It works. Thank god. But seriously walking around in skirts and shorts that are WAY too short for a responsible teacher to wear...
The guy playing opposite her really looks like Shige. He is pretty useless which makes that even more so.... but the real love of mine in this drama is the beautiful Maya Miki (Buzzer beat, Galileo, Shibatora, quiz show 2, zettai kareshi). Kirisawa (Maya) is beautiful, calm and collected. Solves all the problems like the ex-lawyer she is. And there is some secret past.... dun dun dahhhhh!
We mainly follow Akira sensei as he comes to terms with finally realising he should properly face his students and raise and support them well, after becoming cold to them after an unfortunate bullying incident left him scared to intervene in the lives of his students. The ghosts he meets in the new town bring Akira through this journey and they form bizarre cute bonds. As you would expect.
I guess its a pretty predictable drama, but it is the cast that keeps it going I guess.Anne in particular is as always a joy to watch. As I wait for each episode to come out I curse watching a drama as it airs. Gah.
Yes. indeed. Maeda agrees.
It gets more involved in the students as the drama goes on, obviously - that was stupid to say.
But with each episode the classmates get closer to each other and form the bonds that help them stand up to adversity and bla bla bla you know the sort. Gokusen stylee.
But don't be blue peter, Its pretty fluffy and lovely dovey in a weird ghost / human way, and slightly less f*cking super weird than XXXholic. Anne wears considerably less colourful clothes...
I thought I said dont be blue peter!
Seriously. Bunch of grumps.
Have a picture of Katori Shingo as Monkey instead. He has the best face.
