Watching the extremely silly and entertaining Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo, (the high school drama of the boy named Yamada (Yusuke Yamamoto)and girl Shiraishi Urara (Mariya Nishiuchi) who switch bodies whenever they kiss), and happen to notice that the girl bullying main character Shiraishi looks VERY familiar….
Yep, turns out it’s none other than the lovely Ms. Rika Adachi, one of my favorite gravure idols ever, here baring her claws as one of those clichéd “arms-crossing bullies” I’ve talked about before. Cliched, true, but when you look as good as Rika, you can get away with it, even when coming down to pretending to be friendly with the victim, inviting her to lunch…

| "Won't You Join us for Lunch?" purrs the conniving Rika.... |

| Shiraishi on her guard! Are these girls REALLY her friends? |
And then watching in glee as she opens her bento and finds someone has messed with it beforehand! Now, WHO could have scrambled up Urara's bento? Hmm, possibly THREE particular troublemakers?
Little do Rika and her minions know that Shiraishi is in fact Yamada inside, and unlike the ladylike Urara, HE attempts to put a stop to it with a flying punch to the bullying Rika! Sadly, he’s stopped by Shiraishi (in Yamada’s body) who steps in front of Rika and takes the punch to the face instead!, Fortunately, Rika and those bullying girls got SO freaked out they stopped messing with Urara, so the problem got solved anyway, LOL!
Such a fun drama and I'll probably stick around for more...Besides the aforementioned cast, there's also the return of Ryoko Kobayashi and Karen Miyama, in equally mysterious and entertaining roles, so there's THAT to consider!

Very energetic cast, and it's so funny to realize that Mariya Nishiuchi, the girl playing sweet main character Urara Shiraishi, is the same tuff and gruff chick that slapped the heck out of Shida Mirai in the equally fun and zany Seigi No Mikata about five years back! Oh how times and people change!
