WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Tanaka Kyoko (Kinami Haruka) is a 40 year old OL who is looked down upon by her peers for being modest and simple. However Tanaka secretly performs as a belly dancer at a bar as Sali. Tanaka's colleague Akari (Nukumi Meru) finds out that Tanaka is actually Sali and starts to get obsessed with Tanaka.
WHAT IS GOOD ABOUT SEXY TANAKA?
+ It reminds me a bit of Saito-san where it is about friendship between women where the older one teaches the younger woman to rethink her values but Sexy Tanaka throws a twist at it with the younger woman Akari seemingly having everything but not having whatever Tanaka has. There is also a strong hint that Akari might be more stalker than friend and I hope it is more for comedic purposes.
+ It is also a fun comedy about relationships with the Shono character who desires a woman with all of Tanaka's characteristics but is too blind to see it and is always too straightforward with women.
+ I really like the 4 main characters and their chemistry is really good.
+ Did I mention that Sexy Tanaka is very funny?
+ This might be Kinami Haruka's career defining role?
WHAT IS NOT GOOD
- Nothing!
SUMMARY
Funny dorama about belly dancing which is really about seeing the value in other people and looking for something to live for. Fingers crossed the rest of the series will be just as good. Very watchable. Big thanks to luwuang for hardsubbing!
