"Rich Man Poor Woman" Gettin' GOOD!

Ishihara Satomi and Oguri Shun in Rich Man, Poor Woman
 Wow, is RICH MAN POOR WOMAN getting AWESOME!!!! Just finished watching episode 8 (thanks to all those who sub and release these so fast!) and I can hardly stand how good it was! Maybe it’s predictable at times, but at heart I’m just a guy who loves a story without any hidden meanings or shock endings. All I want to see is a good story with good actors, and they are very good indeed! Satomi Ishihara in fact is one her way to becoming one of my fave actresses of all time, and would already have spawned a “Crush of the Day” entry if I hadn’t ALREADY hailed her as such a while ago, LOL!
    Though I know very well the trajectory of these things where the show “peaks” at about episode 9 and then it sort of simmers down to a good but uninspiring conclusion, I cannot help but hope that this one will continue to knock me out all the way to the end!
