1) The reason I watched this: The first reason was Yamapi then I read about it in a well written blog by a friend of mine therefore I decided to give it a try. 2) Storyline/Plot: *Generally speaking, it's a romantic story wrapped up with some comedy and let's not forget the fantasy element represented by the "fairy". Positive Points: *I can't think of many positive points in this drama but let's speak about the main genres present here: --->Humor: I think it's the only element that I appreciated it while watching the drama, it's not like I laughed so hard but the funny scenes thrown every once in a while were good to watch even though they weren't freakily present but the random choice of humor was good. Negative Points: --->Romance: Considering the fact that this is a romantic story, I haven't felt the romantic atmosphere till the last episodes, I kept waiting and waiting for something lightening to happen yet it was practically the same each episode: No major changing, that's why after watching the first 3 episodes I knew that I have to wait for the end to see the major changing when it comes to romance. *The story development was really slow as annoyingly slow; you know how the episode will begin and how it will end. The last 3 episodes of the dramas were the most important ones when it comes to story development, other than that it was moving like a turtle. Story rating 5.5/10 2) Acting/Cast: *Yamashita Tomohisa: So Yamapi is one of my favorite actors, he's the sort of actor that I feel happy when I see him on screen not to forget that he's one of the main reasons why I started watching this drama. Now let's be objective; no matter how much I like Yamapi I have to admit that his acting was really poor in this drama, I haven't felt anything, it's like he haven't delivered a thing that can touch me: Sad but true. Ken character wasn't good, I liked it at some points but I quickly lost interest in it, the main reason is the slow movement of the drama that made it so dull. *Nagasawa Masami: I am not familiar with her as an actress, I hate to admit this but when it comes to acting she was better than Yamapi but that doesn't mean that she was dazzling; she was acceptable. When it comes to Rei, she was really annoying as a character, I didn't like the character development; it was really bothersome to watch. *Other Cast: Some the supporting roles lacked development (such as Mikio's character), some of them were fun to watch (Hisashi) and the rest weren't bad; acceptable overall. *Relationships: --->Friendship: The only relationship that I appreciated while watching this drama, I enjoyed watching the friendship between Ken, Rei, Mikio, Hisashi and Eri; it seemed pure and pretty strong in a way that makes you want to see more scenes were those 5 are gathered. --->Romance: I haven't felt any chemistry so it wasn't that great but again it's all due to the slow development of the storyline. --->The triangle: When I speak about the triangle I would say that it existed while it haven't actually exist; Cryptic right? Well, that's because there wasn't the usual feelings of a triangle when you see Ken, Rei and Tetsuya. Cast: 8/10 Acting: 6/10. 3) The ending: "I made it!!" That's what I was thinking when I finished the drama. I knew from the beginning that the major development and the "jump" of the drama will happen at the end, it was all expected. Since there was a Special after this drama, I don't think it would be considered as an ending yet both of the drama and the Special endings weren't any different. The ending: 7.5/10. 4) My Impression (How did it affect me): *This drama had one of the slowest storyline's developments out of all dramas that I’ve seen so far. As a person that have the lowest level of patience, it really played with my nerves, I won't deny that I skipped many parts because like I said you know how every episode will begin and how it will end. *It's one of those dramas that I wanted to reach the last episode to find out what will happen (even though I already anticipated it), I just wanted to finish and get over with it. It was simply one of the boring dramas that I’ve seen. *Is this drama memorable: Partly yes. Even though I didn't like this drama, I will remember those boring feelings that I had while watching this and I will remember not to recommend it to anyone that has a slow patience level. My impression: 4/10. 5) Overall: *If you're die-hard Yamapi fan then you will like this. *If you don't mind slow development then you may like this. *Proposal Daikusen is a drama that you have to wait for the last episode to see the major change; if you don't mind that then I think you won't hate this. Overall: 6/10.
