Mikako Tabe Gets Strict in “Kore wa Keihi de Ochimasen!"

Started watching the Mikako Tabe drama “Kore wa Keihi de Ochimasen! ~Keiribu no Moriwaka-san”(This Is Not A Business Expense! Moriwaka-San of Accounting Department) from this past year, about the adventures of a highly efficient, No-Nonsense office Worker in a company’s Expense Department!

So far it’s a fun drama (with Tabe’s Sanako Moriwaka reminding me not just a little of Mitsuki Takahata’s straight-edged OL in Douki No Sakura), but I’m having a hard time adjusting to seeing some of the other actors in the roles they’re playing, like Daiki Shigeoka who plays Moriwaka’s romantic interest Yamada…. he’s supposed to be goofy and likeable, but I just CAN’T get past what an absolute JERK he was to Yuriko Yoshitaka in Shiranakute Iikoto…just the sight of him pisses me off, LOL...

And if that weren’t enough, we have Airi Matsui, whom you all know is my current darling, playing one of those two-faced sneaky secretary types…ARGH! I suppose they're making her the foil for Moriwaka's attraction to Yamada since she seems all up in him but geez...

Couldn’t they at LEAST have let her have play Mikako’s pretty best friend or buddy co-worker  instead? But the “Pretty Best Friend”  role seems to have been handed to actress Hanae Kan… 

...and the “Buddy Co-Worker” role is played by actress Sairi Ito…

 I guess I can’t complain about those choices but still...sigh...
There were some laughs, in particular whenever she is talking to her superior. He tries to pay out of his pocket for some thing she needed, but she refuses because it would affect her paperwork...and the amount he gave her isn't enough anyway, LOLOL

We’ll see how long I last with this drama!
