Yamada Ryu (Yamamoto
Yusuke) is the worst student at his school, with the worst scores out of
everyone. He is an outspoken and loud yankee, but is occasionally stubborn with
other people. Shiraishi Urara (Nishiuchi
Mariya) is the schools top, and even uses her breaks for studying. She is a
quiet and calm person which makes her an easy target for bullying.
Their lives change
drastically when they one day fall down a staircase on top of one another and
switch bodies. At first they try to repeat the sequence, but are unable to
switch back, until they remember they kissed while falling down. Now they know
how they can switch, and use that for their advance. They change and Shiraishi
takes Yamadas test, helping not to fail, and Yamada stops girls from bullying
Shiraishi and catches perverts. But when they are found out by a member of the
student council, he takes them to the supernatural/paranormal club.
In there they find a
book where is says that there are 7 witches in the school, and on the last page
is says they all 7 have powers. As number one is “body swap”, but as the page
is torn out they can’t see the rest.
Who are the witches?
And why do Yamada and Shiraishi change bodies when they kiss?
A very short at sweet
romance drama that completely reminds you of the manga. Even if you have not
read the manga, the drama really reminds you of how manga’s in general are
written (if you read manga’s or have read Shoujo manga you know what I mean).
The couple is adorable
and there is a great amount of kissing, like big time. I think that the lead
actor kisses 3 people every episode. Though the supporting cast is a bit bad at
acting, the main are quite good, and do a surprisingly good job. At the
beginning I thought they were overacting, but kind of fits the drama really good.
It being a 8 episode
drama makes it a good watch, especially due to the humor.
