Kirakira Kenshui (きらきら研修医)


Yes, I am watching too many doramas right now! Kirakira Kenshui (きらきら研修医) is the story of a medical intern, and her experiences at the hospital. It’s loosely based on a blog, apparently, and after watching two episodes, I’d have to give it a 6 of 10. I like the actors, especially Dr. Kirai, who was the head teacher in the Gokusen doramas. He’s pretty funny in this one too. The main character, Usako (Konishi Manami), is cute, but a little annoying in that she is too kawaisoo and constantly saying “sumimasen”. But she’s nice to look at, that’s for sure. The situations are over-the-top, so if you are looking for a serious drama, this won’t be for you. But for some lighthearted terebi, this one’s ok. It’s kind of strange that a flamenco scene pops up in episode 2, and there is also a flamenco theme in Haken no Hinkaku.
