When I saw the comments on a streaming site from other users,
I thought that 11nin mo Iru! would be pretty bad, and so didn't expect much from it.
Now when I've seen all 9 episodes, it is more than likely that the people who gave bad comments made their judgment from the first episode and didn't watch any more than that, which is a shame - because the series was really good imho.

Unlike other dramas with similar stories, this story was, not only realistically executed despite of the tones of supernatural elements, it also had minor twists you didn't saw coming
and the unpredictability makes the story all the more enjoyable.
The drama includes quirky characters, humor, issues the average family experience,
and the ending was neither rushed nor slow paced.

Now, it's time for the ratings ~
The music gets a 6.5 rating because the only music I can remember from the series was the intro/outro theme (which is the same song btw).
The rewatch value would be a solid 8 I'd say since this is the type of drama I could watch at the very least 100 times over.
I got no complaints regarding the cast, in fact I'm surprised that there was hardly any character in the story you wouldn't like, and that is a rare feature.
Rating for the cast is a full 10. Congrats.
The story gets a 9, which is very good in my book.
And lastly, the overall rating is the same as my rating for the cast: 10!

"Unoriginal" is probably how I would describe this drama with one word.
The concept isn't anything new and has probably been used over and over again in other shows and movies.
The first episode reminds me greatly of the old American movie "Heaven can wait" from 1978.
Anyone who've seen that movie will get the reference.
So, yeah, the story is rather old, but, being old doesn't make it less interesting.
In fact, I personally found the 10 episodes good enough to enjoy with little to no effort on my part.
The only real problem I had with the series was how Hina-chan was portrayed in the earliest episodes, by that I meant her personality not the actress.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that this is a typical family drama, although certain aspects was included in the story.
Given the premise of the plot, you might think that the drama would have a lot of angst, melodrama etc, but the story is surprisingly lighthearted.
Now, if you are thinking of watching the drama for the first time, don't expect sappiness though, 'cause there isn't much of that, imo.
The soundtracks was good I suppose, but not very memorable.
The casting was very good I think, in that they were convincing in their respective roles.
The rewatch value I think would be a solid 7, seeing that I wouldn't mind watching the drama again in the future, but it is not a top priority.
Finishing the review, I can honestly say that it's a drama I most likely will never get bored off,
and as such, it's a drama I can highly recommend to others.
