Este é o Xeque-mate do Amor? (2018)

Let's be honest, the acting here is not that good, but the story is actually so cute that I kinda ignored all that. Sometimes it's cool to just watch some Slice of Life stuff without paying much attention to acting or plot development.
I'm actually watching because I love Kashiwagi Yuki (she's my AKB48 oshimen!) She looks great with glasses, btw.
I have to say that I ship the male lead with the second female lead. I don't know, but they seem cuter together. I feel like the main character's romance (aside from being an insta-love) was unnecessary and would have been better if they had stayed as friends. But anyways, it's not that deep, it's just a fun and cute short story, so it's all okay.

worst story ever
so shallow and annoying
the plot is missing and it is not solid story
as if the writer passed quickly through headlines in a newspaper

and what was really weird
they made many scenes like when her underwear appears and when her chest was too close to him
and when he every time meets her looking at her chest

but the kissing scene was inappropriate LOL
i dislike sooooo much
i began to hate Japanese drama according to their shallow, silly and annoying stories
till now just one drama i already like and that's it
i couldn't figure out till now what was this high rate for ?
and according to what ?? -_-

I think this drama is a cute storyline with a nice cast. I don't know with the acting part but I did like them. I just don't like that it is just 4 episodes though they really used up the time to show the whole storyline. It is quite childish but that is just what it is.

The male lead's character is not the usual for me since he is the guy, a new refreshing concept. I don't know anything about shogi but it feels like chess game and it did incorporate in the drama.
Sanae's character is also one of a kind. I like her. I thought they would have a love triangle going on but they did not pursue that which is good for me.
Overall an okay drama to pass the time.

Short

Both of the leads were very attractive. Personally, I was bothered by the "slapstick" focus - that he was constantly looking at her chest, seeing her underwear, his eyes would bug out all the time. It seemed very juvenile. The bad guys were caricatures of what you'd think a typical bad guy would be and they were amazingly unattractive, so there was absolutely no mystery about who the bad guys were.

The leads were cute together, but I didn't feel any chemistry between the two and though it was just four episodes, even for that the ending was terribly abrupt.

Oh my, Kashiwagi-san plays Main Role in drama? For me, can't skip this one. And is she singing the OP too? Ouch, lovely...
At least i don't really put such high expectations for her in this film, but i think she pretty nailed that role. Too bad this just a 4-episode stories.
The main male do such a great job for balancing his role with main female.
The story line kinda charming and cute, and there are some funny scenes also, but the conflict which appear in the end of the story was kinda rushed i think (yeah since it's just 4 episodes).
Anyway, i already watch this twice and i'm pretty sure this story worth to be rewatch.
