| Summary: |
Kyoko followed her true love and childhood friend Sho to Tokyo so she could help him reach his dream of becoming an idol. She cleans, cooks, works three jobs and does nothing for herself because she loves him so much, but gets nothing in return. Still, she remains by his side. But then one day she goes unannounced to his agency with a delivery, and overhears him talking about her; he reveals to his manager that he only took her with him as a maid, and that he doesn't care for her at all. Upon hearing this, Kyoko doesn't just sit around and cry. She cuts and dyes her hair, changes her clothes and attitude and thus begins her journey to join showbiz and have her revenge against Sho. |

pros
+ very amusing comedy
+ character development makes it worthwhile
+ great characters
cons
- story is a little simple and slow
- the end! the end!!!
- animation isn't exactly the best
conclusion: somewhat straightforward and simple story, but comedy and characters make it worthwhile. even the marginal characters have important roles. everyone is unpredictable (more or less), and the mc's overdramatic speeches to herself are just rofl-indulging. the animation isn't quite the best, but character design can be appreciated. problem? the whole thing stays without closure, and towards the end they changed a whole chunk of the original (manga's) story. personally, i prefer the manga simply due to the end, but i can recommend both to those who love comedy and a heroine with personality.
peace.
