Giragiraギラギラ – Release Oct 08

Kumo Japan Drama sneak!!

Japan Drama Story:
Nanase Kohei (Sasaki Kuranosuke) 佐々木蔵之介 got lay off by company and unable to get a new job for quite some time. He is married and desperately needed a job as he is the only source of income in his family. Nanase Kohei (Sasaki Kuranosuke) 佐々木蔵之介 does not has an education degree and that makes it difficult to get a job anywhere. Finally he has no choice but to return to the occupation that he’s use to be the good at, a male host. Nanase Kohei (Sasaki Kuranosuke) 佐々木蔵之介 used to be No.1 host at his former host club. After leaving his former host club for about 10 years, the club is not the same as it used to be during his time. Furthermore at the age of 36, it’s a bit too old for the job. It’s a survival competition in the world of male host and advantage is towards those 20 year old youngsters. Without his wife knowledge, he returns to his former male host job and challenge other young host to prove that he still has what it takes to become No.1 male host. This time he has to struggle to fight for his family and his survival in the male host world.

Feelings and comments:
When a man loves a woman, he’ll do anything to make her happy and protect her. Well, that’s the strong message that I get from this drama. Another message will be no matter what good reason you have for keeping a secret from your wife, it’s still not a good idea as you always end up backfire.
This is the first time that I witness Sasaki Kuranosuke (佐々木蔵之介) as lead actor in a drama. Even though he still has a lot to improve for his facial expression but overall he did a good job in this drama. The story line is a bit rush but you won’t feel bored watching it. I still feel a sense of not enough from this drama, perhaps there might be a special version coming out later.
You can always look good if you put money and effort on to your appearance, but it’s the personality, knowledge and the value within that makes a person attractive and charming. There are things that you can’t buy with money. You can only win it with your heart, and that is the most treasures thing in the world.

Things that caught my eyes:
The suits that the hosts wear is very fashionable, mostly can be seen from celebrities only.

Japan Drama Rating:
Worth watching. It’s an exciting experience into the world of host club.
