Came to watch Akaso and Machida Together Again
I was attracted to this drama after thoroughly enjoying the chemistry between Akaso Eiji and Machida Keita in the BL drama "Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?" "Super Rich!" pales in comparison to the former. In the first few episodes, it's hard to like the lead character of Myoga Mamoru, played by Eguchi Noriko. Machida's character, Miyamura Sora, is also pretty disagreeable. So, we're mostly connected with poor little Haruno Yu, Akaso's character. No doubt my pre-conception of this drama was tainted by the earlier BL pairing of Akaso and Machida, so I kept hoping they'd end up in a romantic relationship. That would have been a far more interesting storyline, but no such luck and the pair really don't have any good scenes together. Akaso plays more or less the same role he played as Adachi, but this time as the cub in a cougar-cub romance with the older Myoga. Actually, I appreciated the challenges to social cliches like ageism and gender roles -- Yu does the cooking in the household and says his father was the better cook when he was a child. The production values in "Super Rich" are quite a step down from "30 Years." The pacing and editing is uneven. We bounce around from lurid violence to slapstick comedy to chick flick romance. This drama doesn't seem to know who the intended audience is and it feels like there were multiple directors who could not agree on the overall tone. There are a number of plot holes and contradictions. There are ambient sound gaps throughout the soundtrack. All that said, Akaso's scenes are well worth watching, but you might want to scan quickly through the rest of it. If they edit this down into a 2-hour movie, they should shift the "central character" focus from Mamoru to Yu.
