30-Day Asian Drama Challenge Day 7: Your Favorite Japanese Drama?
Mei-chan no Shitsuji (2009)
Directed By: Ishikawa Junichi, Kinoshita Takao, Joho Hidenori, Iwata Kazuyuki
I already mentioned one of my favorites on a previous Asian drama challenge post. So I will provide you all with another favorite of mine, Mei-chan no Shitsuji.
This live-action drama is based on a Japanese shoujo manga of the same name, which I haven’t read yet (and I probably won’t because I’m satisfied watching the drama).
Mei-chan no Shitsuji is about rich girls going to an academy where they each have their own butler who serves as a knight in shining armor too.
It’s ridiculously entertaining. Yes, it has the overexaggerated, cheesy acting, but I did enjoy the humor. Also, Hiro Mizushima is my favorite Japanese actor. I think his role as a butler in this drama prepared him for Sebastian Michaelis in Black Butler (or at least tried to).

From what I’ve heard, the manga seems to be one of those “love it or hate it” titles.
