Kimi wa Petto

After a terrible day at work and a bad break up, Iwaya Sumire played by Koyuki returns home sad, depressed, and most of all lonely. However, at the front of the apartment she finds an unconscious young man lying in a cardboard box. Feeling sorry for him, she takes him into her home and nurses him back to health. As the young man, played by Matsumoto Jun, gets better he begins to like her place and resolves not to leave her. In fact, he even professes that he'll do anything she wanted if she allowed him to stay. Sumire looks over at a picture of the golden retriever that she had when she was a child and jokingly says to him, "You can stay if you become my pet."

To her surprise, he agrees. She names him Momo.


Starring:
  • Koyuki as Iwaya Sumire

Story: 
Based on the manga, this drama was told very well. The idea of having a human as a pet is completely surreal and that's why it was interesting to see how the drama would unfold. 
 
Although this is not a comedy, there were still quite a few scenes that had me laughing. This drama takes an unique look into the current dilemas that career women have about love. 
 
Acting: 
Jun's acting was quite good, but I found him much more interesting as Momo than Takeshi. Plus his voice was kind of had this annoying monotone-ness whenever he was not the pet Momo.  
 
Koyuki was also on and off, but mostly on. Sometimes I found her to be a bit too stiff, but that's forgiveable because I guess that how she wanted to portray the Simure character. 
 
Music: 
Passable music. It didn't detract anything form the drama, but it didn't add to it either... 
 
Overall: 
The story was handled very well and had me engaged the entire time. It's feel good and quite a fun drama. I didn't expect that. Overall, a very good watch. Recommend it!
