<\/a><\/center>I just watched the first three episodes of Hanayome To Papa (花嫁とパパ)<\/a>. It’s a very good dorama. It’s got a pretty interesting story, good acting, and cute girls too! And again, for the women, there are a couple of handsome male actors as well… The story starts off good, then kind of gets annoying because the father is so meddlesome that you just want to hit him. But by the third episode, you are kind of immune to his overprotectiveness and you just accept it.<\/p>\n
By the end of episode 3, the story is really starting to advance more quickly, mostly on the dating front. I would have watched more, but it is 2:45am and I should get some sleep!<\/p>\n I just watched the first three episodes of Hanayome To Papa (花嫁とパパ). It’s a very good dorama.

Basically the story is that a father Uzaki Kentaro (Tokito Saburo 時任三郎<\/a>) has raised his only daughter Aiko (Ishihara Satomi 石原さとみ<\/a>) alone ever since his wife died when the daughter was just one year old. She is now 20, and starting her first job. The twist is that he is very protective and strict, but in a sweet and loving way, and now that she is heading out into the world he is having a hard time letting her leave the nest. On top of that, she is starting to date. There are several scenes where the father shows up at her workplace and pretty much causes an embarrassing situation. It’s really annoying! You can see the trainwreck coming from far away. But the relationship that is starting between Miura Seiji (Taguchi Junnosuke 田口淳之介<\/a>) and Aiko is well done and not at all so unbelievable, unlike something like Hana Yori Dango. I think Taguchi (from KAT-TUN) is a pretty good actor too. He’s not nearly as annoying as all the other popular boy-band actors. One interesting thing (to me at least) is that one of the other actors is Koizumi Koutaro 小泉孝太郎<\/a>, the son of former Prime Minister Koizumi Junichiro. He’s ok, but his character doesn’t have many lines so far. Just a lot of brooding. Ishihara Satomi’s character, on the other hand, is funny and cute and has some hilarious expressions. The only problem with her is that she looks nothing like her father, plus he must be over 6ft tall, and she maybe is only 5’2″. But whatever, she’s beautiful and pretty much can carry the show.<\/p>\n![](\"\/media\/blog_images\/story3_pic4.jpg\")
