Reviews
In the beginning, the synopsis is what piqued my interest, but after looking at the cast and seeing a few of my favorite actors/actresses, I began to watch it. Throughout this entire show, I sympathized with each character as they worked hard in the office and in their daily life; even empathizing with a couple of characters specifically. This show really hit me in the stomach... hard! I could feel each and every character's determination and efforts, as well as their disappointments and worries through the entire show. The actors and actresses cast for this show were superb and their talent was amazing; it was like I was watching how a real office works instead of a drama show.
The story itself was really unique, definitely one of a kind! I really admire Ataru for how hard she worked just to be herself and not someone who has such a"special skill", which is something you don't really see in the typical supernatural/psychological genre. This show has so many lessons within each episode and every story through the entire show is so heartfelt.

I'll watch anything with Hana Sugisaki
After watching Hana-chan in Hana Nochi Hare, I'm slowly going through her filmography. I've liked everything she has been in so far, even that weird "Bleach" movie lol. "Haken Uranaishi Ataru" is unlike any drama I've seen before and definitely would not be something I would've watched if Hana had not been in it. For J-dramas, I usually only watch romantic comedies and manga adaptations. Anyway, I'm so happy I watched this!Though I couldn't necessarily relate to every character, I found myself touched by their problems. I cried a lot, of course lol. One character hit pretty close to home for me, but I won't say which! I loved seeing Ataru help fix their problems and then see how they all changed after. By the end of the series, they all worked so well together that I wished I could have worked with them. Regarding Ataru's character, I think Hana played her rather well and the mystery of her background was a nice touch. Though I liked her best once we really got to know her.
This review got kind of rambling, gomen. I think anyone who likes slow-paced, slice of life dramas will enjoy this series.
