“Unubore” means being
conceited and overestimating your own abilities when it comes to wooing girls.
Our lead (Nagase Tomoya) in this story is called ‘Unubore’ by everyone he
knows, because he simply is thinking that every girl falls in love with him.
After being dumped by his longtime girlfriend/fiancé, Unubore lives by falling
in love with any girl after the 3 seconds stare - meaning after 3 seconds of
they look at each other it means love at first sight. One day he enteres a bar
where 4 other unubore guys are staying: actor that can’t get pass the corps
role Honjo Sadame (Ikuta Toma), a narcissistic patisserie Matsuoka Seishiro
(Kaname Jun), a glamour photographer Anai Kiichi (Yagahi Ken) and the
leader/master who is over his 50’s Kurihashi Makoto (Bando Mistugoro). They all
boost each other’s conceitedness, by overestimating themselves.
But surprisingly every
time he falls for a girl she ends up being a criminal, so he ultimately asks
them a question: will you sign the marriage papers or will you go to jail?
Yeah.. Uhm, this is so
slapstick humor that I couldn’t even laugh. I think I kind of tried to see it
as funny and ended up rolling my eyes even more. Though it has some scenes that
make me face palm myself because of its ridiculousness, but someone these
people are so dumb it’s not even funny. The huge and famous cast couldn’t even
save this sinking ship, but you could kind of enjoy it because of the crazily conceited
guys and their way of seeing life and women. The story though is so silly and
yeah.. Ridiculous.. I can’t think of any other word.
So recommendable? I wouldn’t,
but you can give it a try.
