And, of course, I'm referring to Toshiki Inoue, who is not just an excellent dramaturge able to express different emotions in a matter of minutes (as varied as the ones he will be able to make you feel) a là Ayako Wakao but he's also a 100% shoujo author in vein of the greats of the genre like Ryoko Ikeda, Keiko Takemiya, Mineo Maya and the likes, people from which it is clear-as-day at this point he took several cues for his writing like he took cues for from the Disney Princesses from Snow White on until the 90's classics like Beauty and the Beast, directly quoted in this awesome show, a blast to watch from start to finish. Add to the beforementioned shoujo and disney princess worship an healthy dose of mindbending stuff a là Hideaki Anno and Kunihiko Ikuhara without the flaws of these two (namingly, their ridicolous fake pretentiousness), an equally healthy dose of self humour and welcomed fanservice in the bra and panties of actual female lewd live-action artists taking part in this, and you have another certified toku Classic/Masterpiece a là Kamen Rider Kiva that I sincerely don't understand how it was cancelled because of low ratings, it makes no sense whatsoever. As an ending note, all the actors are very good in their performances but special recognition deserves Atsushi Ogawa for his portrayal of Shogo Kuroiwa, he did an excellent job.

Highly Recommended to all tokus aficionados and not just Inoue fans like me.
