Attention Please synopsis
Yoko Misaki (Aya Ueto) was a boyish girl who was raised among three mothers after losing her mother at young age. She enjoyed the company of boys over girls, and formed a rock band among her male friends.
One day, a member of her band and someone who she admired, Tsukasa, had decided to leave for Tokyo. Misaki and her band member went to the airport to bid Tsukasa farewell, and that’s when Tsukasa jokingly said that he would love to see Misaki in flight attendant’s uniform.
Misaki somehow took Tsukasa’s joke seriously and went for a flight attendant interview, and somehow got accepted into a class, and that’s when the trouble starts…
The drama was quite a hit when it was aired in Japan, with two special episodes being produced in 2007 and 2008 respectively by popular demand.
The drama is a bit nonsense, funny and heart warming. The storyline is just ok, but it gives the audiences some lessons on how flight attendants are trained, and the importance and responsibilities of the cabin crew besides serving coffee and tea.
Aya Ueto and Ryo Nishikido look good as always, but it’s the supporting cast that provides the sparks. Veterans like Miki Maya, Fumiyo Kohinata and Mantaro Koichi show that good acting still outshines good looks for most of the time.
