Though I don't think anyone can replace the sweetness of Aiko Sato in the original drama, I HAD to tune into the newest adaptation of Tada Kaoru's infamous Manga ITAZURA NA KISS when I found out the lead girl playing Aihara Kotoko was none other than uber adorable Miki Honoka, last seen (by me, at least) as the meddling little sister in CLONE BABY!
Just got through watching the first episode, and though it's naturally QUITE different from the Aiko Sato Drama I watched all those years ago, I'm really getting into it, the reason of course being that the show's just FILLED with Miki's spastic cuteness, her nervous tics, stunned reactions and sputtering dialog making for the MOST delightful of dramas! Really, just about every scene has at least ONE zany situation for Miki to show off her comedic talents!
And ANOTHER BIG added bonus for this show is the fact that Kotoko always seems to be EATING in every scene (and quite messily, truth be told), making for some awesome screen shots for my huge album of "Cute Girls In Japanese Dramas Eating"collection, LOLOL
Now, I'm NOT a big fan of these "High School" dramas, and I am SOLELY watching this show for Miki and her adorable reactions, so we'll see how long I'll stick around for this one. So far, though, it seems SO GOOD and I'm looking forward to the next episode!
