As with the case of Takasugi-san, Takeuchi-san really brought out the best Hana she could and it totally fit with the character in the manga. She completely captured Hana's spirit, determination, strong will and strength alongside Hana's low-key savage personality which I loved.

She acted out Hana exactly as her manga counterpart and I never found her acting lacking. Takeuchi Aisa-san did a wonderful job playing Nonomura Hana. I'm happy to say that I honestly felt like I saw the real Takane come to life He was really able to showcase Takane's unique traits and also why I found him loveable in the manga. Apart from his height, which was a bit short compared to Takane but hey you can't have everything, he was the perfect choice to play Takane. He completely captured Takane's narcissism and his exaggerated way of speaking and acting. Takasugi Mahiro-san completely captured the essence of SaiabaraTakane and was able to beautifully portray his character perfectly. However I was hooked from episode one because the actors chosen for Takane and Hana actually played their parts so well. I have to say I was hesitant going into this series cause I'm a huge fan of the manga and I didn't want to be disappointed by a poor adaptation and shitty acting as is the case with many live-action adaptations This review may contain spoilers This is my first review so please be patient with me :)
