Stand Up!! – Episode 1

Hi everyone, Kumatan here!

With the help of my friend Haejin, I decided to write my first drama review on Stand Up!!, a comedy starring Ninomiya Kazunari. It’s a drama from 2003, so it’s not a recent drama review.

The reason why I decided to do “Stand Up!!” was because of these reasons:

One day, Shohei finds female underwear at the library and later finds out his classmate Tanaka was having sex with his girlfriend. This incident reveals the fact that he and his buddies are the last 4 virgins in school. Also, Chie (Suzuki Anne), who the four of them adored, came back after moving away 11 years ago and has a situation.”

Since it’s been years since I’ve seen the show, this will be a good opportunity to look back at this series. So let’s start!

However, for some reason, I can’t stop watching this drama. It could be because I was having some serious Ueto Aya drama withdrawals. Anyways…
