Late for a meeting, Kotoko was running along the corridor in school and bumped into Naoki, their lips meeting. Naoki showed his disgust, but Kotoko started to idolise him, who was good at everything from studies to sports. When Kotoko's house burned down, her father's good friend Machiko invited them to move in with her family. It was then that Kotoko realised Naoki was the elder son of Machiko, who took up the role of a fairy-godmother to bring the two together...despite the fact that Naoki was disgusted. Not discouraged, the clumsy and not-so-bright Kotoko started to do everything that would change her impression on him. Gradually, the icy-cold Naoki who disliked girls started to feel for Kotoko...

  1-Why did i watched this : i watched it bcz it's the adaptation of one of my fav stories Itazura na kiss, i'm a huge fan and i watched this drama right after finishing the anime and it was the first drama adaptation that i've watched before "Playfull kiss" and "It started with a kiss".
  
  2-Storyline/plot : They even changed the original manga story and didn't follow it plus it was short that i couldn't get the time to fully focus.
  
  3-Acting/Cast : the female lead was totally an unforgivable choice, she ruined Kotoko's image in my mind for a while, she's so annoying that i end up not feeling sorry for her when Naoki treats her bad. The rest of the cast wasn't bad and i believe that the lead male was good.
  
  4-Music : Fair enough
  
  5-Rewatch value : people who liked it will rewatch others won't: it's as simple as that.
  
  6-The ending : It was kind of rushed; it happened so quickly but it's not a bad ending.
  
  7-Overall: I was kind of disappointed in this drama adaptation, it doesn't suit the huge size of Itazura na kiss and i believe that out of the 3 other dramas adaptations the jap version was the worst but seing Itazura na kiss story all over again totally worth watching so no regrets. read more

  I have already seen the korean and taiwanese version of this drama and I think this the japanese version is the worst. It was bearable in the begining but then it just was not tolerable. I had to stop looking is what I thought but I continued to see the outcome. I still did not hate or like it. Then what I did not like is the main leading girl I do not think the one they picked was the best for the role and her acting was exagerated and therefore I was not pleased.
