Intern doctor, Usako meet an ill child on the way to the very first day of her work. Hastily, she takes the child to her hospital, however the hospital is too crowded and Usako falls into a panic.

Kirakira Kenshuui (Sparking Doctor-in-Training)

Synopsis: The main character is Oda Usako, who is a new graduate from medical school who is in training in a local hospital. She's a bit of a klutz and causes some problems but she works with all her might and does her best!!! - rough trans from official site

Translation: OVERCOMING ALL CHALLENGES I WILL BECOME THE #1 DOCTOR! AIM FOR THE TOP! NEVER GIVE UP!

Notable Actors: Konishi Manami, Eiji Wentz

Yao: What are they trying to do here? It's everything I hate: an episodic GANBARU! drama with the girl who sucked from Orange Days and a WaT member. I mean can I be real here? It's like they wanted to make a less sexist N's Aoi except they didn't have enough money for a reject JE member.

Veronica: Eiji Wentz is an example of Mixed Race Gone Wrong. I am at the other end of the spectrum, so I don't associate with flawed hybrids like him. And why is he so damn earnest?

I watched episode 1 yesterday, because the ratings are really low, but it didn't drop (actually went up to 11% lol). So I thought it was simply an underrated drama. Watched it, hated it.

I think it was the main girl's bad acting that turned me off the most. She's adorable and I've seen her in other dramas (and loved her), but maybe this type just isn't for her. She totally goes over the top with the character, making it seem fake and painful to watch.

The plot isn't really well put together. To be more frank, I found it foolish. What's up with "love potion" and everyone thinking there was a relationship between her and the old doctor? Far fetched much? Sounds like something a beginner would think up and write in a fanfic. Plain random. And the pregnancy thing... what? I can see that there could've possibly been some comical situations done with this, but they solved it all in one conversation.. why on earth did they even add it in?

The whole thing's just not very realistic. I can just go on and on about the flaws.

I'm so saddened that Kato Masaya even considered being in this dorama, he's so talented..

My rant's over.
