The Secret Garden in Japanese?!

Ha ha, no, sorry. It wouldn't be a good drama to watch in Japanese, at least to me.
 Himitsu no Hanazono (ヒミツの花園) is a drama about a 28 year old female magazine editor who is tired of working overtime and bossed around by others doing their work. She feels as though sh doesn't have a life and is then assigned to be in charge of a very popular Mangaka (cartoonist) with the most lovely name, Yuriko Hanazono. As she goes to Hanazono's residence/office, she is met by four men who seem to be her assistants. Then it turns out those four men are brothers who form a team named Yuriko Hanazono and took roles to create popular Mangas. In this heartwarming comedy, the exhausted editor may find out the key to be happy while she is being driven crazy by this unique band of brothers.


  Although this drama is from 2007, it is quite the interesting one to watch with only 11 episodes in total. The main character, Tsukiyama Kay played by Shaku Yumiko, goes through the most embarrassing and hilarious situations due to each brother and their problems or questions. Each character within the drama has something they want to experience, but only because it is for their Mangas' characters and because they aren't the typical female who experience a woman's well, experiences. There are also funny love stories between certain characters and how each one sees it. 
  Some people struggle to become a Mangaka and it's not always so easy. The drama can let you see what goes through some Mangakas minds and what they do to overcome writer's block, screw ups, pressure, and decisions. The life of their editor can also be seen, but may or may not be so accurate as the drama displays ha ha. Now then, shall we get started with the star studded cast??
  One more thing! Himitsu no Hanazono is also known as The Secret Garden or Hanazono's Secret. There's also an Anime titled Himitsu no Hanazono that was broadcasted by NHK and a Manga titled Himitsu no Hanazono written by Mihona Fujii. Neither have any relation to this TV series. The Anime series is an adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's children's novel The Secret Garden.
