Review:
Hmm I liked this one. Didn't love the lead girl, thought she was a little...too needy? However I'm a Yamapi fan. It is rather...drawn out though. However there are some heart-warming moments. The whole idea is at least a little original. The angel is pretty funny too. "Hallelujah Chance!" fuufuufuu....

Last year in Japan, I started to watch the Proposal Daisakusen Special....however I was dead tired (like most nights) and had to go to bed :(. It was a lot tougher without subs too...I later watched the Special back home, it wasn't the best...>_>;

Review:

Wow, I watched this one a long time ago.

Still, if my memory serves me well, this was a cute series.

Normal dramas have long shots of good-looking fellows,

or the heroine, this one has long, dreamy shots on....food xD.

They really get across the "in-a-restaurant" feel,

and watching will often make you hungry!

The ending isn't great, but that's not completely unusual for this kind of show.

I recognized a few of the minor actors, like: Ito Misaki(Kiken Na Aniki), Yamada Takayuki (Water Boys), and Yamapi...(Who doesn't know this guy?!) :).

In closing, its a okay way to waste 12 hours.

Go ahead watch the story unfold, there's even a bit of action, involving a criminal!
