“Koyurugi Sota has been in love with Takahashi Saeko since High School, but she has never returned his affections. Knowing her love of Gourmet Chocolates, Sota goes to Paris to become a world-renown chocolatier in hopes of winning her over. When he returns to Japan to open his own shop, however, he finds that Saeko is in the process of getting married! Normally, one would give up the chase, but Saeko, who is a bit dense about things, seems to lead Sota on with her actions, encouraging him to continue vying for her heart!”
They had me at “She is a bit dense”. Because, you know, Satomi Ishihara + pretty clothes + ditsy airhead= HEAVEN! LOL! MAN, I HAD to check this one OUT!!!
So far everything in this drama is as promised, with Satomi Ishihara doing her BEST Ayase Haruka "deer in the headlights” spacey stare while looking so lusciously delicious you could eat her up like a chocolate truffle, naively angelic at the same time giving off these HOT, sexually-charged vibes! When Sota says "I thought we were dating", Saeko innocently purrs, "But we didn't have sex!" LOL!
Matsumoto Jun, on the other hand seems to be channeling Mirei Moriyama in “Moteki”, as an affable guy who has the misfortune of being in love with a clueless girl that takes his emotions on a rollercoaster ride every time he sees her! After announcing ehr engaement, she shows up at his house in this SHORT little dress, making both Sota's and MY eyes bug out! How much teasing can a guy take?
Also along for the fun is Mizukawa Asami, whom you all know I love very much, sadly, here she’s pitted as the “Unrequited Love” case i.e. the one who secretly loves Sota while he spends his time chasing after Saeko. Sorry Asami, but in a situation like this, you are certain to lose! Better to settle for co-star Junpei Mizobata.
