Synopsis: 

Sakaki "Tornado" Makio (Nagase Tomoya) is a tough 27-year-old high school drop-out. By academic standards, he's pretty dumb. His father decides to force Makio to return to high school to receive his diploma and he asks an old friend who happens to be the principal (Iwaki Koichi) of a nearby school to admit Makio. If Makio doesn't graduate, the position of boss will be given to his younger brother Mikio (Kikawada Masaya). Furthermore, he must pose as a 17-year-old during school hours and in the presence of any classmates or teachers outside of school. If his cover is blown, it would be the end of his high school career as well as his hopes to become boss. Things start out rough and tough as Makio's violent temper is tested. As the lessons and days go by he learns there is much more to school than just tests and studying.

My Take: 

Okay, I'm not done watching the drama yet, I'm only on episode 4 but I feel like I needed to write about it already cos i'm afraid the ending might somehow alter how I am feeling about it now. It's really funny, like,palm-in-my-face funny. I am laughing so hard  and so often that I'm afraid I'd wake my housemate up lol. Gaaah! I love it, it's not only funny but it makes me feel all giddy too. I mean, I couldn't ask for more, a romance and a comedy j-drama rolled into one. Okay, on to the next episodes and the next packet of ramen, lol...

update 1: and the movie is all about enjoying the youth too.ahhh memories. 

update 2: second to the last episode: damn! every high school student should watch this movie, or better yet, they make it part of the curriculum or something lol. 

update 3: gawd! i'm bawling my eyes out again! beautiful story, beautiful characters, man! i love this drama. I'm glad i watched this after all. yukatta!

Overall, it's a very satisfying drama, something that never gets old even if you watch it for the second or third time around. :)
