IMDB says Natsuna Watanabe also was part of the cast for this show and I've seen other sites claiming this was the show she started her career in... is this true? If so, what was her role/who did she play?

This is one of the best Japanese drama that I have watched.
Yamashita and Kamenashi are the best as usual, but I'm kind of disappointed
of Hirokita Maki. I don't think that she is the right one for the role!

It is good but I don´t really like Kamenashi. YamaP is very well. I think Akira is one of the best roles he ever did. You should watch it.

I love Yamashita, his role as Akira is cool.
The drama is nice, though I think it could be better. The end sucks.
If you haven't watched I think you should give it a try.
