Recently, a colleague of mine introduced me this particular Japanese drama series...which called Mei-chan no Shitsuji which means Mei-chan's Butler.

Practically, it is a romance comedy series..which adapt from Manga!
The story revolves around a young woman named Mei (Eikura Nana), who grew up happily with her parents selling Udon. One day, her happy life shattered with sadness whereby her parents was killed by a car accident and leaves her without a home. Then here come, Shibata Rihito (Mizushima Hiro) calling himself as 'her butler' and telling her that she's heir to Hongo fortune. Whereby, Mei will be officially named the Hongo family successor and claimed her birthright. Therefore to become the Hongo's family successor, she must studied and trained at St. Lucia Girls' Academy.
Well, St. Lucia's is a rich girls school. Whereby most of them were trained to become a proper ladies. Each and everyone girls has their own butler and their butler has to be very handsome. Walao eh....imagined everyday my handsome butler standing next to me, I don't think I can concentrate my studies...hahahaha
Most of the butler staying with their master in one roof but in separate room. However, becoming the girl's butler is not easy....the butler need to take care their master daily activities and necessity.They even have to represent their master in a 'duel' (whenever the master got challenged from other girl).
However, the cardinal rule at St. Lucia's is that Love between their master and butler is strictly forbidden.
Even thou how close the relationship will be between the master and butler, they are not allowed to express it out (for both side)....aww, so sad!
Surprisingly, Mei starts to develop her feelings for Rihito, feelings which seem to be reciprocated. Meanwhile, things get complicated when Shibata Kento (Sato Takeru), Mei's childhood friend and Rihito's brother, shows up at the school and demanding to be trained as a butler too, so that he can be closer to Mei...
hehehe...Love Triangle began....
Living at St. Lucia's school is not an easy task for Mei, whereby a lot of her classmates doesn't accept her at the very 1st place. Meanwhile at the top of the school's hierarchy is Lucia (Yamada Yu), a very polite, intelligent, lovely young lady from outer look....but full of violent bitterness inside. To let Mei survived at St. Lucia, will be very tough for her....as more obstacles occurred....
What I like about this show is that it isn't afraid to laugh at itself. Even though it has an intricate plot, which full of twists, complex emotion and surprises. Whereby it frequently does silly things for the sake of being silly and lightening the mood.
