This dorama casted top tier japanese young actors and gave them a script that only them will be able to nail. Centered on a non-successful comedy trio named Makube, each character have their flaws, struggles and crisis. Then, like a real life, not everyone of them find their way.
At the first episode, it was difficult to grasp the direction, but once I found how the story flows, I became so attached. I also thought some of the Makube's chit chat feels too much & awkward, but it also felt human at the same time. Some dialogues were really thought provoking.
That's why I still think Japanese dorama is the best in giving a slice of life story.
One thing I totally can relate is how Rihoko attached to Makube because this trio like a light when she fell into the darkness. Gratefully, Makube also pushes her to rise from her hardship (also, thank you Tsugumi!). That's also the start of my fangirling journey...
