Sukaretto says:
p.s. major spoilers coming up.
     i liked how the story's light but interesting. how they had to show that the team had to practice a lot and then lose first before reaching their goals. i like it how they were not a "bunch of delinquents with hidden potential/geniuses" cliche group but instead they were really good from the start but had to work hard to create a pretty powerful team. and i like the Hiro-Hideo-Hikari friendship. yes, Hiro and Hikari like each other. they know it, acknowledged it, but they also know that even if they betray Hideo and get together, they still won't work out. i like it that their relationship with each other (Hiro&Hideo = besties, Hikari&Hideo = in a relationship, Hiro&Hikari = childhood friends) wasn't ruined, they handled it like adults. 
     i didn't know that Ishihara Satomi was in this drama. usually can't handle her but i have to watch her dramas cox it's usually with other actors i like. i thought she's likable in H2. that's just it. XD

My Ratings: i'll give this 8/10 :)
