Watch for the humor but expect the pacing to drop off

I picked this up instantly upon come across some of the dry humor snippets on YT.

My main complaint is that the pacing was a bit iffy, subjectively speaking - there were some really boring moments (mainly the female cast - Kaede ), I felt like it kept pulling attention from what I actually cared about - interraction of the protagonist with the team. I found her acting rather awkward and overdone - the rest of the characters fit the main theme much better. I wish there were even more Nii moments where he referenced stuff, it was my favourite part.

The characters were quite solid, esp. the main protagonist and Matsukoma, they have great synergy: cold versus warm. The other chars don't fall short either, if you wanted a group of diverse personalities at one place, it's gonna be in this jdrama.

Not much story to expect as this is just a sitcom, nevertheless, the ending doesn't leave you disappointed, there's a bit of closure.

I say, watch this if you enjoy the overall humor but expect to sleep through some episodes when it strays away.
