Meanwhile, "A VICTORY" producer Max Masa is looking for the next star of the company. He is a rival to the hitmaking Tenmei.

alan shirahama is sooo fucking sexy I'm going to add an extra full star to my review just for him. first thing i want to talk about is how horrible of a character they turned ayumi hamasaki into. she is so goodie & naive & contrived. i know this is a dramatization of a conversation of a situation but ayu is so. stale. it's insufferable. it's really unpleasant. it's not fun. yes kalen anzai sucks at acting but it's not like keiko kitagawa was turning this dog±shit script into shakespeare. she isn't hungry enough is my issue. nor do we see her scuffle enough. when she stahnds up to max masa it doesn't feel euphoric i just look at her odd because where is this wimpy fire coming from ? she's so peachy in all the other scenes & now we have to hear about how tired she is of meaningless gigs like i guess . . . 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ & now onto the max matsuura propaganda he's honestly whatever ,i don't like how much focus he is getting ,especially in the first episode because this is Not Your Story. get to the fucking back. & his scenes also dis±joints ayu's like their story+l;ines here do not blend well. 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ max masa's scenes also brings us to how ridiculous absurdist ,borderline dadaistic this drama is which i don't hate ,it's actually really fun to see. what i do hate is that this is such a cheapy production so the dramatics are also synthetic & degredading. I'll get into that later but back to the flamboyancy in this drama it has an unintended effect of making the more serious & intimate scenes more endeering ,like the karaoke practice at the bar was honestly kind';ve cute. the montage between the horribly dressed performance of「 m 」was so sweet 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆ but sweet doesn't cut it. outfits suck. hair ,& make+up too because they love talking about gyaru here ,all of it is horrible. i know this is based & adapted to low hell about ayumi hamasaki but oh my god why is everything so ugly & frumpy ? did a singul;e person care about this show ? i don't think i have anything else to say. can you imagine it's worst the second time around ?
