1. | Comments by xploring [Rating: 8/10] Probably 7.5. I really enjoyed the first few and last 2 episodes, and episode 7. Apart from those, the others were a bit ordinary, parts of which I felt I endured rather than enjoyed. I really liked the original plot and topics, how it was able to mix light-hearted and serious content seamlessly. Both the leads were very good too. But one of its problems I think is that it got a bit too complicated/confused sometimes in trying to deliver its messages, and there was a lack of focus for a long time in the middle of the series (both in terms of character and ...) I would have liked to see more of Niko, even though the story of Robo's growth was quite well told. The messages sometimes were a bit confusing, not sure if it's due to the quality of translation. I like most of the messages that I understood, though I have to say most of them were not that memorable, except for the first episode. |
2. | Comments by dekatrain [Rating: 8/10] Thank god there's a few people out there that wish to stir the boat and stop modern day j-doromas from spiralling into the waters of cliche after cliche - that's what the people from Sexy Voice and Robo attempt to do and full credit to them. Despite the badly translated english title, an at-sometimes frustratingly simple and dull script, this drama survives via the undeniable quirkyness of its plot and the vivacity and spirit given by the two main actors (both of whom are quite excellent) to their characters. |
3. | Comments by rikastar [Rating: 7/10] I wasn't even going to watch this actually but I enjoyed most of the episodes very much. There's something very quirky and fun about the drama that engages me, especially the characters who are really unique and 'weird' in different ways. Ohgo Suzuka has great screen aura for her age... I think she carries the show as a lead pretty well. One of the things I like to see in each episode is the cute outfits that Niko is wearing. They probably look weird in other instances but look right at home in this drama. |
4. | Comments by hummer [Rating: 9/10] I liked this drama a lot mainly because of its main characters. I think I initially watched this drama because of MatsuKen, but the young actress, Ohgo Suzuka, definitely stole the show. Her character was altogether loveable with none of that whininess I find so utterly annoying in many other young female characters. There was awesome character development, showing how both of the main characters matured throughout the show. It was definitely interesting and funny at many parts. Highly recommended. |
5. | Comments by dokaben [Rating: 8/10] Incredibly underrated! A surprisingly thought-provoking drama about life and growing-up that just happens to revolve around an otaku and a junior high school girl. Excellent acting and lots of subtle humor. Not every episode hits the mark, but it's nice to see something different for a change. If you liked the quirkiness and sensitivity of Nobuta wo Produce (same writer), you'll enjoy it. |
6. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 10/10] This is a well put together drama...it's a little bit weird....actually a whole lot of weirdness....but an entertaining show....Ohgo Suzuka is great for being so young and held my attention throughtout the show...Matsayama Kenichi was funny and likeable.... Lots of deep thoughts and probing of life and death.....I liked this show! |
7. | Comments by maui [Rating: 9/10] this drama is so underrated imo.this drama is not only about otaku,it's more than that.i love this drama bec the story is really nice and i learned so many things about life from this drama.give it a try.oh and what a great acting from all the actors.ohgo and matsuyama are an amazing newcomers. |
8. | Comments by aiscess [Rating: 8/10] I didn't like it at first but when I watched it for the second time I enjoyed it so much. Robo always cracks me up with his "ittadakimax". It's just that Niko didn't really make use of her powers that much in the story. This is more of a human drama than a mystery. |
9. | Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 8/10] I liked this drama a lot. Kenichi Matsuyama is the best otaku ever, Suzuka Ohgo very good as well. This is one of those dramas that you either "get it" and think its great, or don't "get it" and think its terrible. |
10. | Comments by hibiscus920 [Rating: 5/10] Finished half of the series. Both leads are great actors, but the story doesn't do them justice. I can take the strange/quirky humour, but the story just isn't very interesting. |
11. | Comments by tabana [Rating: 8/10] Funny stuff. They obviously don't take themselves seriously. A few tough subjects, great cast. The only bad thing, robo keeps yelling all the time for no good reason. |
12. | Comments by ct_subang [Rating: 6/10] i'm still digesting the fact tht ROBO is the same guy who portrays L in Death Note....zen-zen chigau yo...eheheh...i'd like to see more of Suzuka...she's good... |
13. | Comments by akitsu [Rating: 3/10] This kind of story maybe amusing as a manga but definetely not as a dorama. I was pretty disappointed after the positive reactions I heard from other people. |
14. | Comments by Sun_Shang_Xiang [Rating: 6/10] This reminded me alot of a Manga/Anime called XXXholic but not as clever as that Manga. I think this would work better as an Anime. |
15. | Comments by Jeanxi [Rating: 5/10] Interesting premise and great acting by the leads, but the plot development was sometimes a bit slow and not completely engaging. |
16. | Comments by rei-desu [Rating: 8/10] funny.. espicially Kenichi matsuyama.. how he acted like a stupid or nerdy look.. its way far from his character in Death note.. |
17. | Comments by Lady Zhuge [Rating: ?/10] I watched a few episodes and probably won't watch any more. It's not horrible, but just doesn't engage me. |
18. | Comments by fataliste [Rating: 5/10] The premise was interesting, but the direction failed. Brilliant acting by the leads though. |
19. | Comments by g_hunter1 [Rating: 8/10] This drama is probably not for everyone. I pretty much thought it was a nice wacky series. |
20. | Comments by aoiharu [Rating: 10/10] this is actually one of my fave.
little humor here and there and matsuken's acting...lol |
21. | Comments by xxhiroxx [Rating: 5/10] The acting and storyline are both decent, yet the presentation makes it not as engaging. |
22. | Comments by expanzee [Rating: 5/10] The story is ok but it gets lame and cheesy with each episode. Gave up after 5 episodes. |
23. | Comments by x_XJules [Rating: 8/10] this series is a lot of fun to watch. the ending is only so-so though... |
24. | Comments by nimadifob [Rating: 5/10] started off really good and interesting.... then completely face planted |
25. | Comments by ShinYo [Rating: 6/10] Matsuyama Kenichi is funny and kinda childish, but quite boring... |
26. | Comments by Blood_Berry [Rating: 8/10] max! ga gan gan gan! dorky, otakufied matsuyama wins at life. XD |
27. | Comments by norani [Rating: ?/10] Sexy Voice and Robo --- Kenichi Matsuyama |
28. | Comments by Ohmiya [Rating: 9/10] MAX!! MAXsu BEAM! Kenichi as Robo was so funny! |
29. | Comments by mmyy [Rating: 7/10] Funny to see MatsuKen looking so dorky. |
