An addicting drama. The stroy is really interesting, as isn't an ordinary story in Japan, and not alike with ER... not at all...! Kenji Sakaguchi also portrayed the character really well. Not to forget the cool opening/ending. REALLY RECOMMENDED!!! |
| 2. | Comments by atheon [Rating: 8/10] July 2006: I watched alot of medical dramas, this is actually the first ever j-medical drama i've watched which revealed the 'organs' and procedures during operations, and it's very detailed and well explained with pictures and stuff, although it's not 100% true but still, this drama showed how medical dramas should be. Nice cast, with an awesome ost, if you prefer romance dramas, avoid this. |
| 3. | Comments by xhidex33 [Rating: 8/10] Pretty good from the middle and on. The ending i really liked. |
| 4. | Comments by adrxuan [Rating: 10/10] watching in progress and it ROCKS!!XDXD..keke..teppei is so cute with his "nerdy" look too...keke |
| 5. | Comments by natzumi [Rating: 6/10] Seen ep 1. It was alright, but didn't really want to continue. I kinda know how the story will go. Gotta love the ost for this drama. |
| 6. | Comments by Shindou [Rating: 9/10] Excellent casting for medical dorama. Inamori Izumi and Sakaguchi Kenji clearly carried the dorama thru with some great support from the rest of the cast. Natsuki Mari was a delight to watch and Kishibe Ittoku was an excellent choice for the professor role. Plotwise, this definitely kept my on the edge of my seat the whole time. For a medical dorama, very well done! |
| 7. | Comments by Tad [Rating: 8/10] Pretty good, the ending wasn't crash hot but had a slight twist to it so it was good. I am biased to medical dramas though, i love them! |
| 8. | Comments by xxhiroxx [Rating: 7/10] While it's got its points of interest, it's too much of a Shiroi Kyotou wannabe--but perhaps more intense and bloody in certain scenes. |
| 9. | Comments by moonchyld [Rating: 9/10] i loved this drama...very intense and well-done! i admit that it has some elements that resemble shiroi kyoto, but it actually has a different story altogether. I think the first episode will really make others think twice about continuing with the drama, but please don't let it stop you! it only gets better and more intense with every ep. i think the shine of this drama are koike teppei and inamori izumi; they've given powerful performances and definitely worth the watch! |
| 10. | Comments by romi510 [Rating: 7/10] Currently watching. |
| 11. | Comments by kinkitsuyo [Rating: 9/10] Fav dorama of this season. A must watch! |
| 12. | Comments by rikastar [Rating: 9/10] I'm glad I watched this, because I almost didn't. It's awesome! The story and pacing is very good, the characters are interesting and have strong personalities, and the music is great. Quite a few parts that made me go wow. Nerdy Teppei is love (go Harry Potter!), Sakaguchi is uber cool, Inamori Izumi is really charismatic and pretty, Kitamura is creepily fantastic... the entire cast is really good actually. |
| 13. | Comments by octane [Rating: 7/10] The operations in this drama are somewhat unrealistic..
(guess I watched too many House)
Anyway, I heard this drama is based on a manga...the unrealistic part is nornal, I guess.... |
| 14. | Comments by maui [Rating: 8/10] Good drama, fun, and exciting.The background music is the best.This is the first time that i think Sakaguchi Kenji can act. |
| 15. | Comments by ReDxFred4 [Rating: 9/10] Working together, there is nothing impossible that cannot be achieved! Many stars including Keppei..Izumi inamori. and Mizukawa Asami! |
| 16. | Comments by Fight-oh [Rating: 10/10] Though I watched like half the episodesof this show it looked great... Doctors united to help take care of sick patients and cure them of different kinds of illnesses and effects in their body. This show can teach yu alot about the heart and the human body yu decide to watch it |
| 17. | Comments by onigiriman [Rating: 6/10] I think my Japanese is good enough for these dramas but the technical terms used during surgery forced me to spend more energy than I would have wanted... or I'm just lazy. |
| 18. | Comments by lynn [Rating: 8/10] Copy |
| 19. | Comments by MrNiceGuy [Rating: 9/10] This guy is so cool as my favorite character (Kijuto) from same comic book title. Great movie! Sakaguchi Kenji acting not so bad in this movie. |
| 20. | Comments by expanzee [Rating: 9/10] The best medical drama I've watched. The organs look real and all. Definitely a must watch. |
| 21. | Comments by Kirari Ililah [Rating: 10/10] Loved it, watch it you must!!! |
| 22. | Comments by orenji [Rating: 10/10] Amazing drama with a great OST. =) |
| 23. | Comments by netbreaker [Rating: 8/10] the best medic drama ever.. |
| 24. | Comments by jade_frost [Rating: 9/10] Absolutely riveting. Unrealism aside, Iryu probably ranks as one of the best dramas of 2006. The episodes are well-paced and scripted, and the drama benefits from an ensemble of interesting characters that are well fleshed out by the cast. Special mention for Natsuki Mari as Dr Kitou the astute, cunning, yet charming head of emergency. |
| 25. | Comments by vieuxcon [Rating: 9/10] Bon casting, de bons acteurs, bonne ost, a regarder meme si on ne 'sy connait pas du tout en medecine ! Lors des operations, nous sommes profondements absorbes par le jeu des acteurs et suivons tout le processus avec admiration. Je finirai par une phrase : Allez le voir bordel, ce n'est pas pour rien qu'il a finit premier a la "49th Japanese Drama Academy Award" ;) |
| 26. | Comments by *ume* [Rating: 7/10] not bad....actually better than other medical dorama i has seen so far.... although there are some items in the drama seem far-fetched. |
| 27. | Comments by zealous [Rating: 10/10] this is the 1st medical drama that I really like. 1. becausethe haracter of this series.... dr asada ryutarou... and the team.... if we got this kind of doc in this world... we will be save.... 2. the type line of this story really tough...and I hope there will be more... but sad to say, the story already ending wit the bad guy lose.... |
| 28. | Comments by Dorobou [Rating: 9/10] One of the best medical drama you'll probably see for awhile. |
| 29. | Comments by aoi_dolphine [Rating: 9/10] This show reminds me of White Tower but the plot is different. Gosh Teppei looks so different from his previous dramas... |
| 30. | Comments by nimadifob [Rating: 8/10] tale of a tru badass, badass stories are great |
| 31. | Comments by x_XJules [Rating: 1/10] i couldn't get past the first episode. usually i give a series 3 episodes before i make my decision.. but this one is just too awful. sorry teppei =_=;; |
| 32. | Comments by lovejdorama [Rating: 8/10] avail for trade, 2-DVD English Subbed http://www.geocities.com/reddashay/jdorama.html |
| 33. | Comments by carie_akanishi [Rating: 7/10] Well, a real exciting show. too abd i only watched the last few episodes.. |
| 34. | Comments by Q-chan [Rating: 9/10] GREAT!!! Maybe the best medical dorama ever... |
| 35. | Comments by cutesawada [Rating: 10/10] Really addicting. Made me want to be a doctor |
| 36. | Comments by ume [Rating: 9/10] Really good music. Casting was superbly done...everyone matched their roles really well and even though we all know Sakaguchi is practically an indestructible god in there, still enjoy seeing him succeed operation after operation. Used to think Sakaguchi was a bit wierd (after watching FIGHTING GIRLS) but this has changed my whole opinion of him. And Teppei is just CUTE. Cannot imagine why his acting is so good as he is only 19. |
| 37. | Comments by v1olet [Rating: 10/10] Asada Sensei ! You're great, that's the surgeon supposed to be. One good medical drama. I love watching it, I love Sakaguchi Kenji, I love the story, I love the OST (Believe by AI), I love them all.... |
| 38. | Comments by usagi_on_the_moon [Rating: ?/10] haven't started this yet... |
| 39. | Comments by l3in8 [Rating: 10/10] Meaningful medical drama!!! Touching |
| 40. | Comments by Tiffany [Rating: 9/10] This was such an amazing dorama! It made surgeons look so damn kakkoi. The story was well-written and its themes are easily understood. It also makes you feel like your IQ has gone up a couple of points by listening to all that medical lingo... It sucks you in and never lets you go. |
| 41. | Comments by Lady Zhuge [Rating: 9/10] I really like all the surgical sequences and how the pathophysiology is mapped out. With a storyline involving touching and funny moments alike, strong performances by its cast, and an excellent OST, this serial shouldn't be missed. |
| 42. | Comments by Nao [Rating: 10/10] Don't miss it! |
| 43. | Comments by BijinDatta [Rating: 10/10] Top quality and innovative drama. This medical drama didn't get bogged down in too much romantic relationship dynamics but it did recognize some. The videography was definitely very kakko ii and the whole cast was SOLID. |
| 44. | Comments by Sevenz [Rating: 10/10] One of the best dorama ever produced. The actings are amazing, and the soundtracks are beautiful too! |
| 45. | Comments by sweet_tapioca [Rating: 10/10] The one of the best 2006 drama! The sound track was great, the acting was fabulous, and the actor (Sakaguchi) is hot, man, it's just a great combo. |
| 46. | Comments by amir [Rating: 9/10] doctor wanna be..
its worth it. |
| 47. | Comments by sahabat9 [Rating: 7/10] nice drama.. |
| 48. | Comments by monta [Rating: 10/10] one of the best |
| 49. | Comments by Okojo [Rating: 10/10] Great drama, great actor and Sakaguchi Kenji is the best! |
| 50. | Comments by gopro [Rating: 8/10] About 8.75. Much Much better than N's Aoi. Million times better. Much more depth. All these shows have genius' in them. Now all they need is a Yakitate Japan drama. (Winter 06) |
| 51. | Comments by ichigo23 [Rating: 10/10] One of the best dorama I've ever watched!! I like the cast, the plot, the storyline, I like all!!! However, I think Teppei is too young to be a doctor.. But still, his acting is very good.
Finished it in just two days!! (Would've been only one day if I hadn't had to go to work!!) |
| 52. | Comments by kibun_jojo [Rating: 10/10] this is also the best drama because it inspire me to continue my best and my study in medicine!!! that is why i rank it 10 as the best. |
| 53. | Comments by >anca< [Rating: 10/10] such an exciting drama. it taught me alot about the medical world.. and i think im starting to cherish my life? |
| 54. | Comments by Jewell4 [Rating: 10/10] WoW!! interesting medical story. |
| 55. | Comments by gto_girlz83 [Rating: 10/10] Focusing on expert doctor in heart..Such a good drama for medical student! |
| 56. | Comments by EstherM [Rating: 7/10] A bit too much pathos and a touch too heroic for me! But definitly one of the better medical dramas! ItLs worth watching for the performances of the cast, for the sometimes quite gory surgery scences and for at least slightly touching the darker sides of the medical world (ie internal power struggles, corrupt or anxious doctors, pharma industry power). |
| 57. | Comments by kepe [Rating: 10/10] Cool drama about heart-surgery |
| 58. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 9/10] If you're into medical shows...you'll like this one...Not bad!!!! |
| 59. | Comments by saDguRL20 [Rating: 10/10] teppei as a doctor? hehe.... |
| 60. | Comments by mikomiko123 [Rating: 10/10] luved it!!! amazing!! |
| 61. | Comments by Ushiroyubi [Rating: 10/10] I LOVED this drama! Great cast, storyline, and pacing! |
| 62. | Comments by kaonashi [Rating: 8/10] I began watching this drama without any expectations at all & it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. It's an inspiring feel good drama about a highly skilled surgical team who perform miracles together. This just might be Sakaguchi's best drama so far. It's not quite as good as the 24h ER series but it's close.
Recommended 8+ |
| 63. | Comments by Eyeyore [Rating: 7/10] Highly addictive. Tried hard not to start ep.1, believing that many scenes are far-fetched, hero-centric,etc. Well, it is. And in addition to that, every surgery is like watching a baseball match. All the other doctors had so much time that they are either gossiping, politicking or watching the 'baseball match' 'live' broadcast. By throwing aside logic and reality, this show is enjoyable. |
| 64. | Comments by irwinner [Rating: 7/10] Not too bad, though some of the operations can get abit too gory. |
| 65. | Comments by tEpijiN.07 [Rating: 10/10] yehey,..love koike so matz! |
| 66. | Comments by Daichi Kai [Rating: 8/10] Got the human side, and got the sensitive side of a human being should be...
Many have forgot how human should behave, this movie reminded me how should I behave, even it means that I have to fight the majority... |
| 67. | Comments by ffrostte [Rating: 10/10] surely one awesome jdrama. absolutely love the tension!! |

| 73. | Comments by habhie1021 [Rating: 8/10] wahhh!!! |
| 74. | Comments by chinz [Rating: 8/10] nice and captivating stories... kenji is cool. haha. |
| 75. | Comments by Ezalor [Rating: 8/10] This was refreshing after a bunch of romance doramas. Very cool and "clinical" setting, yet dragging you in with high suspense. Broad variety in the storyline, you never get bored. Average soundtrack and actors. Very thrilling and satisfying end. |
| 76. | Comments by Kendesu [Rating: 8/10] dramatic drama |
| 77. | Comments by gupi [Rating: 8/10] this dorama is good for doctor |
| 78. | Comments by mr_dreamboy [Rating: 9/10] very worthy of watching! go team dragon! |
| 79. | Comments by dreamer10231 [Rating: 9/10] amazing...if you're not scared of seeing scenes with blood and operations, then watch this if not, don't... |
| 80. | Comments by strawberrynkiwi [Rating: 9/10] First medical jdorama! I loved it. It was exciting in terms of the plot, characters and even just cardiac surgery in general. I also loved the ending song Ai- Believe :) |
