A great drama with a wonderful storyline! Just when you think you can predict the ending, the story twists again. Simple yet powerful storyline, one doesn't have to be a fan of basketball to watch.

Yamapi (Naoki) is a great actor here but sometimes he falls a bit flat, making his character feel a bit two-dimensional, though it's mostly due to his lines (not his fault - he's a great actor).

The chemistry between Naoki and Riko was wonderful, though it's true when Natsuki said their relationship is just to "lick each other's wounds" I felt that it was true, in a sense that they played more on the "dream" part than the "love" part.

I love the way they portray characters and each and every single one of the character, be it minor or major brought an interesting part to the show.

Props goes to Shuji, Mai-chan and Utsu - they were supporting actors but they were FANTASTIC. Love the way they bring out their characters!

A light hearted drama without being too pointless or too serious - great watch. You can't help but to fall head over heels with Yamapi here!
