Summary: Sakaki Makio is the Waka(Young Master) of the Kanto Eigakai clan. He has been expected to take over the clan, so he has lived his life entirely for that purpose, leading a reckless, violent (yakuza-like) life style, befitting his position.

Unfortunatly, he also happens to be rather stupid. After messing up a very important deal with the Hong Kong mafia, because he didn't know how to add properly, his father announces that Makio cannot take over as the next boss, unless he manages to graduate from high school(he obviously didn't the first time as he was too busy being yakuza-ey). If he doesn't graduate, the clan succession will pass over to his younger brother Mikio.

There is just the little problem of him being 27 years old now, but his father manages to get him into a school through a 'back door'. For him to become the next boss, he has to graduate, and for him to do that, he has to control his temper, and yakuza-yness, because being found out would mean him being kicked out of school, and in doing so, he comes to realize and experience a lot of different things.

Review: First of all, the expressions Makio (Nagase) makes are to DIE for, Koki makes an awesome gangster, and Tegoshi is a girl. No, not really. But he sure ACTS like a total and utter and complete one. (and with his pretty face who can tell the difference?)

Next, the whole plot and concept of the drama is very cool and the whole thing is AWESOMELY funny. My personal favorite moment in the drama is when Teshi and Nagase stand in the middle of the school grounds their arms spread wide open looking up at the sky, shouting WATEERR. Surely no scene can compare to that one. Although the various "purin" (pudding) scenes come QUITE close.

This had quite a few emotionally touching scenes too and I liked the way everything worked out in the end. All in all I loved this, TOTALLY worth watching.

Music: Sorafune by TOKIO

Rating: 8/10

[The only reason there isn't much rambling here is coz I watched this somewhere around last May but never got around to writing the review, and only wrote it now. Just in case you were wondering ^_~]

I loved the whole drama except for the ending and somewhat regarding how it ended how it ended....

jeez I want to complain without spoiling it!!!!

but everything else impressed me so much.... I watched this at my workplace at first.... the pudding fight made me laugh so much it wasn't recommended at work....

most of the scenes made me want to smile so hard, my mouth hurt... its a genuinely feel good drama....
