Youkai Sharehouse is about a girl named Mio who is very
unfortunate in life. She lost her job, her boyfriend dump her and her landlady
forced her to leave because she can't pay the rent. She is in the lowest point
of her life until she ended up in a sharehouse, a place where mysterious yokai
live.
You will love this drama more if you are a fan of Japanese
folklore, it is by no means scary drama, Yokai only serves as comic relief
which is a really fun idea. This drama is refreshing in a way that I haven't
seen this concept before. They use this one thing Yokais hated the most which
eventually makes them help the main character or people around her.
Definitely carried the actress Koshiba fuka, she is cute,
fun to watch, but most importantly nailed every emotion her scene requires. She
is really growing into a great reliable young actress, her acting range is
impressive. I want to see her in more serious role in the future. I think she
is ready for that. The supporting cast is good too, their comedic timing is
great and since this is a comedy drama that is what's most important.
Entertaining drama, fun atmosphere just don't expect any
depth that sometimes a goofy Japanese drama might surprise you with. This one is just straight
fun and looks like it might be one my favorite dramas this year.
