I was expecting something totally different than what I watched. This show is terribly boring and dumb. FL was another super annoying character that I really couldn't root for. The 2 FL/villain was more interesting but ultimately she was the typical antagonist to the FL.

I did like the supporting cast and many of the girls and their butlers made quite the pair. Mameshibe was the only character I actually cared about and wanted to see. The good news is that this is a 10 episode series and not a lot of time was wasted on it.

There were some genuinely funny scenes, especially in episode 8 at the beginning and at the neighbors house when all the girls went to FL's small town. I also, really liked episode 5 b/c one of the characters got a chance to be a little girl and not some robot for the government.

The drama started off a bit weird, but it got better and better. The acting was good and the plot was good too. Shibata Rihito (Hiro Mizushima) makes one hell of a butler.

The only flaw I caught was after Rihito and Shinobu's sword fight. There were no blood on Rihito's arm when he was about to hug Mei. It was only his shirt that was stained red.

Other than that little flaw, everything was good. I love it how the story slowly changes. How were were able to see not only the main character's changes, but her classmates as well.

Seriously, I don't get it why isn't it as popular as Hana Yori Dango or something like that, It's one of the best Dramas I have watched so far.... You need to watch this and relish. That's what I'm doing now... And by the way, the casting and the storyline is awesome just loved it and especially, Rihito Sama KhYAAAAA... haha but feeling sorry for Kento but not that much cause I I'm into Rihito Mei too much, literally too much just loved that pair especially the last episode's last part. Hontoni one of the best dramas so far.  <3

More absurd than expected

The reason I watched this dram was solely for the eye candy if I'm being very honest. I had no expectations when I started watching but I don't think I was prepared about the whole butler genre being a thing in Japan. The story intrigued me in the beginning but in the end, I don't think I could get past the absurdity of it all.

As it was a manga adaptation I looked into it a bit so that I could briefly compare how faithful the drama was to the source material. Unbelievably, the manga and characters felt even more shallow than the drama itself. At least in the drama Mei-chan was at least good at something and didn't feel so useless. But that is not saying much. She was insipid and whiny while having more than one guy pining for her for reasons I cannot fathom. As much as I tried I could not see the chemistry between the leads nor I felt invested in Mei-chan's struggles. Unless you're looking to watch your faves previous works, you can skip this one.

Sato Takeru is so cute and jumpy. I loved episodes 7 to 10 because of him.
What I like is how this is a true love triangle story where someone kind of gets "friendzoned" I guess.
What I don't like is how ... some people ended up with the wrong person in the end. But it lets the audience be hopeful for the future lol, I wish they had an update on the characters future way later, like 5 years later.
Just watch it if you love how cute Takeru is. And the main guys squinting eyes lol
The characters are so amazing I loved this one.

Funny, romantic, perfect. This is my description of the drama. Like serieusly if you haven't watched it yet. DO IT RIGHT NOW!! >.<

Mei-chan is a really strong character. She lost so much but still keeps it together. She looks like a though girl but is breakable.

Kento is also amazing, he really enthousiastic and a bit clumsy but still very cute. ( don't know if that is good for a handsome gguy -.-???)

I also love how mei and kento call each other four-eyed udon and Mame Shiba. They are reallyy close.

Rihito is the hot badass guy in the story. He is a perfect butler you won't be able to find any flaws.
He also developes more further in the drama, you learn about how he really is and what he feels and thinks. This is something good because i like mysterious things.

All the classmates are also amazing, although that the acting could have been done better, it is still amazing. All bulers have a different personallity that you learn about further in the drama. All girls have different problems and find different ways to resolve it.

Of course with help from mei.

It is really worth watching, so go right now 0-0

Me seeing Hiro Mizushima and Osamu Mukai as casts was enough reason for me to sit in front of my lappy and ''marathon'' the whole drama.......... enough of fangirling~~

It has a common storyline, that I have to admit-- The Forbidden love storyline. Although the storyline is nothing new, the plot was wonderful. The plot had a twisted feel to it, the scenes weren't predictable AT ALL (....hmmm... okay some were)

Needless to say, Mizushima and Osamu Mukai keyed into their roles wonderfully, they were really perfect for the roles. The actress was okay, this is my first time seeing her in a drama, nevertheless, she acted her role well. There were a lot of cute, random and weird moments/scenes among the maidens and their butlers, these are not moments or scenes that you what to miss out on. There were a lot of face-offs between the casts, this made the drama more interesting.

It's really worth watching.

This drama is very good if you like a good story and good actors. It's a drama full of beautiful cast. I just hoped of a little more romance in the story. If you like butlers you should watch this drama. I loved it and there is a big chance that I'll watch it again. :) I liked this drama because I was able to get to know the cast. It was good cause you did not see all of it coming. I which that it would have more episodes and a bigger romance between the main people.

Божа, на сегодняшний момент это дорама с самым укуристым сценарием, которую мне довелось посмотреть.
Бредовей сюжета еще не встречалось - элитная женская акдемия, при каждой леди есть дворецкий.
Столько кавая на миллиметр пленки... это надо еще поискать. Хотя уверена - найду и не раз
