Easy skip
Kahogona Wakadanna-sama no Amayakashi Kon is a very short drama. It only has six episodes, and each episode is around 20 minutes long, so the whole story moves very quickly. Overall, if I had to give my honest opinion, I would say the drama lacked a lot. The story jumps from one event to another so quickly that it doesn’t give the audience much time to process what’s happening. Although there are some cute moments between the male and female leads, the overall story feels quite average.
Plot***
The story follows Someya Yukito, the young master of a long-established inn in Asakusa. When Yukito’s father becomes ill, he is called to take over the inn and become the new head of the family. In order to uphold family tradition, his relatives pressure him to get married before officially taking over the inn.
Because of this, Yukito decides to ask Tsuruoka Io to marry him. Io is training to become a chef and has basically grown up at the inn alongside Yukito. The drama then follows their life as a newly married couple.
On paper, the story sounds very cute and promising. However, the pacing is extremely rushed. For example, in one episode Yukito asks Io to marry him, and by the next episode they are already married and navigating married life. The story moves so fast that you barely have time to digest any of the developments.
Everything feels like it’s happening at 5x speed, and that really affected the flow of the drama for me. If the show had taken more time to develop the characters and their relationship, it could have been much more enjoyable.
