Excellent acting by Kadowagi Mugi. The rest is somewhere between a mid and low quality. realization. Every good idea is ruined (probably) by a low budget and a seamingless incapable (or even indifferent ?!) writer or director; some parts are a shame for the rest. I can not believe that every episode of it went trough any quality control.
What is up with those sauna hats 🤣🤣Is that really what people wear in the sauna in Japan?Okay, they can't…
I thought the same... It is either a HUGE miss of the director or we are ignorant about the sauna habits in Japan. Though, I cannot imagine how a human being would support clothes for longer time at 90% temprature, 5% humidity... By the way, a good director/camera/writer could still make the scene without showing them. On a such expensive and visible production there should not be such a miss. Hence I am puzzeled; one should ask some Japanese friends about it....
The show lives from the incredible good acting of the two leads. This is high quality cinematography: thought camera, theater like comedy. There is no big story or any depth, just a pleasant watch,
Excellent choice of locations, great camera work, good sound, funny sketches, very good acting. I wish, I would be able to visit the places they show to us.
The show lives almost solely from the acting of the two leads. Amazing acting of Yagi RIkako! I feel al the time like I am sitting in the first row at the theater!
3. episode contains some beautiful views from/around Hakone! The outfits are also nice. The story goes a bit fast, I wonder what do they planed for the remaining 7 episodes?
Incredible good. After watching many dramas from different times and with various themes and approaches, this is still one of my preferred ones. Rhythm, camera, music, acting are just in sync.
Overall it was not worth the time to watch it.
Anyway, it has a great start!

The end is as good as the rest, I do not understand the few complains.
The soundtrack underlies vey good each part and it is worthwhile listening
by itself. I mean: the soundtrack, not the inset songs.
