I know I know this dorama is kind of old. It's like in 2006. But, I firstly watched it last month and I have an urge to write about it because it was really hilarious! Hahahahaha

sakaki makio as student and yakuza 

So far, I can't find another comedy dorama as good as My Boss My Hero.

 the story is about Sakaki Makio, 27 years old man, first born at Sakaki Family which is a yakuza family. He is the strongest candidate to be the next boss of the gang, because his little brother has weak body and not interested in yakuza things. 

Makio have strength,  superb at fighting,so many underlings which is loyal, bossy, scary, and bad temper. All of that is more than enough to become the next boss. But he has the biggest weakness.  He is so dumb. He can't do a simple math, and not having  knowledge. That's what makes his father (the boss) worry. He wants Makio to be his next boss, but he's afraid that he is too dumb to take that.

So father make a deal with Makio, to send him to go to private High School (he is a dropout when in junior high school) in 3rd class, and going to graduate in one year. After he get his diploma, then father gonna give him the position of the boss. If he failed,  the boss position gonna fall to his little brother. So, Makio  deal with it and try to become a high school student.

Yes, it very ridiculous to see an adult to become a high schooler. This is a comedy so enjoy it hahahaha.
In his s

chool life, Makio learn so many things that he never got experienced. From fall in love, friendship(well yakuza doesn't need love or friend or even emotion right?) And so much feelings. He laughed and cried so many times. The exams, the headclass, summer, Bunkasai, and  others school event that taught him many things. Oh, there's a pudding too!
And this drama taught us about youth! Yeah, Im kind of regret that my highschool life is not that fun and Im not having much fun like Makio did.

This is comedy, and the main actor is Tomoya Nagase which is have a comical acting style. So you gonna see his very clumsy and ridiculously ugly faces hahahaha. Some things are made to be too affluent,  like how all of students racing to get puddings or his comical expressions. 

it is true, if this dorama genre is school-life, but don't worry, its not that cliche. And  after all this dorama is really fun to watch.  It taught you many things. And the plot is very good, well even it is predictable. And it make me cry and laughed at the same time, especially in episode 8 -9 -10 :'') (well, if you have soft side, I guarantee that you will cry at last episode :p )

And reeaally, in every episode you gonna burst out laughing!

Sooo... I thought this dorama is still rare in internet :( Besides, this dorama is quite interesting and fun to watch. If you love Tomoya Nagase comical acting style(My Boss My Hero, Mukodono, Unoboru Deka, etc) then you should watch this dorama.

This dorama story is about Echizen, a very normal and simple woman, who work at Kumaboko factory  that never speak her mind, never express herself,  and just go with the flow. She live with her mom and her little brother.

She usually express herself throught a notebook, which is full with her drawing. She draw a comic, using a character(Hara-chan, Makihiro, Akkun, Warai-ojiisan/Laughing Old Man, and Yuki-nee/Big Sister Yuki) from her favorite comic book and re-drawing in her notebook and pour her stressful mind. She only draw a Sake Bar(?) and using Hara-chan as her mouth, so she draw Hara-chan always get mad, mumbling, grumpy, and get drunk, and then Akkun gonna pour him a sake again and again, and Makihiro just cheer him up, while Laughing Old Man just laughing and laughing and Yuki-nee keep quiet and sometimes give a harsh comment.
Usually, after drawing, all of her problem gonna lift up. So that how she express herself.

But..Who know? That inside the notebook, all character is really alive! After she closed the notebook, they back to normal. One day Echizen get really mad and drawing with anger. The characters get confused, because their world become darker and gloomy. They think their Kami(God. yeah, they called Echizen God, because she is the one who created them) is in a bad mood. So Hara-chan wants to get out to real world to make Kami feel happy, and then draw a cheerful chapter so their comic world gonna get brighter and fun.
So Hara-chan get out from the book, and become a human...and meet God.. and...Fall in love with God. And...the story goes on...

It's fun (but sometimes really hard) to watch the Hara-chan and friends act as a pure human. Because they only live in that Sake-Bar, when they burst out to real world, they know nothing. They just like a child, even more pure than that. They never feel pain, or love, or food. So when they feel so many random feeling, that look so amazing.

Yeah, sometimes it's hard to watch Hara-chan, a big guy who really naive and pure hearted walk in this harsh reality -__- When you see Hara-chan, you even don't have heart to touch or broke him, or just speak harsh to him. He is so pure. So cute. And Huggable >_<
His love to Echizen is very very verrryy pure :') It's just like he make us crying while he was cry, or just so happy when he feel happy too >_<

This dorama taught me about 'loving' through Hara-chan eyes. He love Echizen no matter what, no matter unrequited-or requited or anything with his love. He just..loving. Loving is a gift. Loving is a pure feeling. You should have a requited love with yourself, and your world to move on everyday. 
And Hara-chan taught me about family. I reeaaly love his simple and childish line, that say "so, family is peoples who live in one house. No matter what happend, they gonna go home, to the same house, right? Even if you all fighting or something, you gonna get home with all of your family. Family is always together, right?"

Anyway, I love the theme song too. A simple song, with simple notes, with a simple lyric that created by Echizen with all his heart and express herself. Just.. so simple. This dorama too.. is a simple life, but with so much meaning.

I suggest you to watch this dorama but don't rush. This dorama is kind of slow, but cute. The romance is really fill the air, but not vulgar romance. Just a pure romance, just like what Hara-chan feels.

Huggable hara-chan >_<
