This is a good drama IF you are a big fan of YamaPi and Horikita Maki..They both did a good job as an actor and I love their chemistry in the drama and previously they starred together in Nobuta Wo Produce..However, the storyline could have been better I think..

Now, they're making a movie out of the drama. I can't wait for the movie to come out, I think its around Summer this year..I think its gonna be good! I love YamaPi and Maki-chan! Tell me what you think of this drama!!

I agree. I loved the scenes between the two actors but the plot was too formulaic and ridiculous too often.

Kurosagi is a nice drama :P I like almost everything about it, aside from ending(yep, endings are my greatest problem T_T)
I can't fully agree with Inukaya and Gogo about storyline...it was pretty decent, counting that's based on manga... and also that it's Shounen...and shounen asks for sight and action mostly, so looking from this point, it's also decent ^_^
As for Love line... I'm not into JActors, so i wasn't really impressed by Yamapi, but Horikata Maki did a great job. ^_^ Her acting was extremly geniune ^_^
come to think of it... taken Kurosaki's background & character, Yamapi wasn't that bad either... and they really made touching scenes together... but still... as in Kurosagi as in Nobuta wo Produce...Yamapi is too stiff! grr

I think I'm gonna try this one... I've been searching for a good Japanese drama to watch but I can't find... the truth is I don't like japanese acting... I'm sorry, I don't want to offend anybody but every time I try to watch japanese drama I get irritated... the young actors are cute and everything but they sound so fake... it's sad! I mean, cute face is not enough!!!
I still didn't give up on searching a good J-drama though...

Thank you for your recommendation!

Love this drama!! And Yamapi is so hot... Not that I like the drama because of Yamapi. >__> Should've been a tiny bit more romance though, I reckon. But all in all, a great drama. I love the manga too...so everyone, go read it! If you've got the time & interest. =D
