Every fujoshi's dreams
Me no doku sugiru shokuba no futari is a rather light series. We follow the life of Oto-san who is working as an accountant in her company. Oto is a rather serious person and devoted to her work; however, she has a small secret. She is secretly shipping two of her colleagues. I don't want to get into too much detail because I think that I would spoil all the fun; but, in this jdrama we are able to see how the mind of a fujoshi works and what is reality.Even though it has 25 episodes each episode is only, approximately, 5 minutes long; so, you could watch that in just one sitting. The two male actors have a good chemistry and that makes it easier for the audience to sympathise with Oto and understand her fujoshi thoughts.
Maybe something that bothered me was the open ending. In every episode we could see that there was an explanation for the interaction of the two actors, but the end is open to what could and might happen. I think that there are planning for a new season. If not, then I will be very disappointed with this kind of ending.
But anyway, it is a cute series, with no drama, that is ease on the eye. Watch it :)

Wonderful must watch (BR/almost BL)
If you are into BL or BR, you will like this. It is engaging, fun to watch, and has an interesting plot. It's a mini-series. I watched some of it on TT, but I found a link somewhere else. I hope it will be on QIYI or another more accessible platform. I was able to watch some on YouTube as well. The actors were skilled, had great comedic timing, and the chemistry was also A+. The supporting characters were also an added highlight in addition to the plot and the setting, not to mention the flow was on point. I did not feel bored. It was also something I could understand. Sometimes, the mini-series is cut in a way that it can be confusing and not for this series. I do not want to give away any spoilers, but it is a must-watch for any BR or BL fans.Was this review helpful to you?
Quando guardi il drama dopo aver letto il manga e esserti fatto quattro risate
Da poco in Italia è uscita l'opera originale manga di questo drama. Sinceramente l'ho comprata perché dalla trama e un po' dall'ambientazione mi ricordava il drama coreano The Boy Next Door che ho adorato alla follia, con quel misto di comincità assurda e situazioni quasi inverosimili. Bene, quest'opera è della stessa matrice, solo siamo in un ufficio e le situazioni facilmente fraintendibili sono tra due colleghi della nostra protagonista. Quindi, letto in manga, non potevo non guarda il dramino, che ho trovato carinissimo e molto molto fedele all'opera originale. Un solo personaggio viene cambiato, ma penso per una questione anche scenica.Quindi... ci ritroviamo in questo ufficio, dove tutti seri seri lavorano e... quando arrivano primo uno e poi l'altro i nuovi colleghi, la nostra protagonista, fujoshi convinta, comincia a fare voli pindalici e ricamini degni di libri per adulti! Non vi dico le risate, soprattutto per quel che si immagina la nostra Todoroki che nasconde questa vena fujoshi ai suoi colleghi. Ma... la sua vita solitaria di fujushi dura poco... infatti una collega si accorge del fatto che lei spesso e volentieri fa fantasie su quei due, i suoi due preferiti e... li fa anche lei! Certo, in maniera più soft, ma li fa anche lei, quindi diventano una coppia di fujoshi che cerca in tutte le maniere di capire se quei due sono solo colleghi o come vorrebbero le loro fantasie, sono una coppia. Tra situazioni esilaranti e scene quasi considerate stalking, ecco che le due si spalleggeranno e ci faranno fare un sacco di risate!
Carina anche l'ambientazione nell'ufficio e la sotto trama che ne deriva, ma soprattutto le piccole chicche che ci riserverà non solo la storia principale, ma anche le due secondarie!
