Kuragehime

Yeah. . . Jellyfish Princess. This series was pretty nice and it seems to follow a Korean style of unfolding events though it's definitely a Japanese anime. It basically reminds me about a lot of Korean series I watched.

Well, it's probably because of a few things I've seen in Korean "novelas":
1. a businessman/politician father for the hero/heroine who looks forward to having the
hero succeed his position
- in Kuragehime, the politician and businessman happens to be the hero's father

2. a heroine who takes a liking to someone else besides the hero at first (unless they make a twist and make the heroine end up with that "someone else")
- Tsukimi, the heroine, takes a liking to the hero's brother, Shu

3. the heroine gets hurt a lot because of circumstances with the guy she initially likes besides the hero and the hero comforts her and supports her
- Tsukimi felt bad when Shu didn't talk to her as he didn't recognize her in her normal looks
-Tsukimi really felt bad when she learns about Inari and Shu (Inari= the girl who blackmails Shu into agreeing to a site development proposal which includes tricking Shu to believe that they slept together)<--- which really gets into my nerves

4. a girl appears and fools the guy the heroine likes initially for non-romantic or non-love reasons like money reasons or career reasons but would soon take a liking to the guy she fools
- yeah... Inari

5. business stuff gets all mixed up when a scandal comes which is usually settled in forced marriages and dancing on the enemies' hands
- Inari... again

6. heroine blooms and goes out of her shell
- A LOT... hahaha (damn...I still couldn't recover from Inari's antics. I was really rooting for Shu and Tsukimi but why does Inari have to exist in the story?!?!)

Oh, I REALLY LOVED THE SUPPORTING CHARACTERS...Especially those from the Amamizu kan. Yeah, they're a bunch of weridos but that's the reason I LOVED THEM!!!
