Sukina Hito ga Iru Koto

Actually perfect for girls – the main character is surrounded by three attractive guys, plus she's very good at what she does. It's basically a series full of the kind of stuff you can come across in romance series, the only thing missing is amnesia... The love triangle, the "dark" past, the shyness of the heroine who can't keep her mouth shut, the first love perfect in everything he does, nice to the point that I absolutely hate his character; the second one, on the other hand, is rude and hides his good intentions behind his rudeness, and just... yeah, all those romantic and comedy clichés are there. Unfortunately at the expense of a proper story or interesting characters. Fine as a summer romance, but that's all there is to it. The acting isn't even great enough to make you want to see it. It's better to watch Hiroin shikkaku, where the two central characters are also together in similar roles, but it works out better time-wise. On the other hand, it has a good OST, basically above average compared to other Japanese summer series. But it doesn't really bring anything new to the table. If you like all the soap opera clichés in one place, check it out, you’ll enjoy it. (23.11.2016)
