At first glance this drama may seem absurd and too extra. But on a closer look, you'll find how there some depth into it.
I loved the fact that Kyohei and Sunako were so alike in their opposite situation: she closed herself up because she was called ugly, he did the same because he was too beautiful that people only got close to him for his appearance (is extremized a bit but it works here). They had a way of understanding each other right from the start that made their relationship kinda realistic in a total nonsense context with a sparkle of supernatural.
Another thing that this drama exceed is to show how gradual is to change, how difficult is to overcome your fear and basically defeat yourself. I applaud at the fact they didn't do the makeover thing, or they did but everytime they make her ladylike, is just to understand and accept her being the horror-onna.
Also instead of focusing on her exterior look, it focused on the inside, and the guys just stopped at some point to change her appearance, Kyohei got even mad for it because he completely embraced her true self and that's rare to see in fictions where the ugly duckling usually after a makeover get her confidence boosted and every problem is solved magically. You may think that being and hikikomori just because someone rejected you would be too much, but actually it shows how much words can affect each other. Sunako is presented as a really introvert yet caring, perceiving and very sensitive girl so those words and the rejection from the whole class just because she was into creepy aesthetics made her lose herself. Being scarred is not something that can improve with make up or shiny clothes, it's a journey and who walks through that path must have the strength and the will to do so, that's why the guys and the cousin were fundamental in her process.
I would have appreciated more depth in the other three boys but it's a 10 episode drama, that would've been to much filler I suppose xD
Still the mixed manga styled comedy it's a bit cringe to watch and there are few plot holes here and there but the main message and the cute protagonists just overcame those. I recommend it!
Ps. Also it gives a little more sense of conclusion, while anime and manga have some sort of open ending xD
