Synopsis

Adapted from the best selling book "Train Man," this is the true life story of a geeky young man's romance with a beautiful young lady. The book is based on actual messages posted on a huge internet discussion board in Japan. A million internet users followed the Train Man's romance, giving him advices on how to impress the girl and take her out on dates. Train Man belongs in the so-called "Akiba-kei" category: a term that describes nerdy looking men who hang out at Akihabara (the famous electronics area in Tokyo) all day, who are obsessed with video games and computers.

Hermes

Saori Aoyama is a 25-year old woman who works at a foreign company in Tokyo. She has lived overseas for a long time and is fluent in English. She has an aura of sophistication and a beautiful face that turns men's heads.

One Sunday, Saori had to attend a party at work. Her female colleagues are busy searching for good-looking guys while Saori attends foreign guests, flashing warm smiles at them. After a long day working, Saori rides the train home only to be involved in an incident that would change her life.

Inside the train, Saori is harassed by a heavily drunken man. When the drunk reaches to touch her face, a young man stands up and says, "S... stop that!" She turns to see a very weak looking young man. The young man's action sparks up a quarrel in the train. He feebly says, "I'm sorry for getting you all involved. This is my fault." Some of the other passengers have annoyed look on their faces, but some praise the young man for his courage. Saori also seems impressed at what the man did for her.

Train Man

The young man is 23-year old Tsuyoshi Yamada. He is the typical nerd obsessed with anime and computer games. He always hangs out in Akihabara, the electronics center in Tokyo. Tsuyoshi has no interest in fashion and other trends, and his age equals the number of years he hasn't had a girlfriend. He works as a salesman at an employment agency but is always scolded by his boss.

Tsuyoshi just happened to be on his way home from an event in Akihabara when he met Saori. He has never been in a fight before, but the sight of the drunk harassing Saori made him furious as he stood up to protect her.

The only things Tsuyoshi is usually interested in are anime and video games. But something about Saori's beauty lit a fire in his heart, giving him courage. When he's looking for words to apologize, Saori hands him her date planner. "I want to return a favor, so can you write down your address?" Tsuyoshi is taken back. He has been humiliated a thousand times by women, but never appreciated, especially from a beautiful woman like Saori. Saori has a sweet smile on her face as she watches Tsuyoshi write down his address with shaking hands.

Hermes and Train Man

If it wasn't for the drunk man in the train, Tsuyoshi and Saori would never have become acquainted. A few days after the train incident, Tsuyoshi really receives a package from Saori. Inside was a Hermes tea cup. Tsuyoshi held the bright orange cup with his shaking hands. Unfortunately, he has never had a girlfriend in the past and is at a loss about what to do. That is when he visits a huge internet discussion board for some help.

Tsuyoshi immediately becomes the center of attention. Other computer freaks reply one after another. "Call her and say thanks!" "No, it's better to keep it a memory." Reading the heated discussion, Tsuyoshi is touched that so many people are supporting him even though they don't know each other at all.

Since then, Tsuyoshi has been referred to as "Train Man" and without her knowledge, Saori was being called "Hermes."

Ever since Tsuyoshi received the Hermes cup, his everyday life is filled with new experiences: calling a girl, mobile phone messages, buying clothes, going on a date, holding her hand, walking her home, visiting her room... Everything that happens between him and Saori is a big event and miracle for Tsuyoshi. He does his best to hide his geek-ness. Tsuyoshi's mind is occupied with just one wish. "I want Saori to like me."

On the other hand, Saori is starting to be moved by Tsuyoshi's efforts. "Maybe I can trust Tsuyoshi" she thinks. What Saori looks for in a guy is not his money, nor his looks or brains, but "honesty." In the past, Saori was betrayed and deeply hurt by her longtime boyfriend. She found out that he had a wife and kids. Since then, Saori could not stand a man that lies.

What happens when Saori finds out what the real Tsuyoshi is like? How will she react when she discovers she has become a heroine on an Internet site?

3.	Modern Day Cinderella Tale [Rating: 10/10] A story of a lonely and misunderstood (but kind-hearted) anime otaku who falls in love with a rich and beautiful office lady that he meets on the train, except this time there is no fairy godmother. The man has to receive advice from his gang of internet friends in order to find ways to court the woman. Itoh Atsushi portrays the very geeky, Yamada who has known only one love in his life - anime, mainly Mina the anime heroine with carrots propelling from her buttocks. He falls in love with Itoh Misaki's character, Aoyama - who is very far, far from his league. Through hard work and a lot of changing, Yamada breaks away from some of his otaku-ness with help from his friends in order to court the woman of his dreams. A very funny, but touching romantic drama.

Instantly captivating [Rating: 10/10] A very touching (and VERY funny) story of an otaku who helps a woman in a train who is being harrassed by a drunk, being a complete nerd and no clue about women he turns to a message board for help. I was hooked from episode one, you know when you watch a drama and think, wow nothing will beat this, well, this is one of those shows that will change that opinion, all round great acting, the character who plays the otaku does it convincingly, with the help of his two freinds they are a classic act, just typing this makes me want to watch it again, the music is also great especially the star wars bit, stop reading this and go and watch it now, you won't be able to stop until you have seen it all. キターキターキター

13.	ki-ta!! Densha Otoko! [Rating: 10/10] Finally, after completing the last episode of Densha Otoko, I finally understand why so many people are talking about it. Honestly speaking, the first thought that came to mind when I heard about the premise of the story was how corny it was and most likely a fluffy comedy. Luckily for me, i took the time to go through his show. Densha Otoko really shines because it is ultimately extremely entertainment, from moments of silly puppy romance to touching thank-you scenes to even outrageous comedic scenes (anyone remember the gushing swer pipe:P) the show managed to keep us entertain without ever once slowing down. One of its more unique idea was the scenes of the other BBS participant chatting away with Densha-san. And as you watch how the entire community gives strength to Densha, you also realize they themselves drew strength from him. And before long i find myself seemingly like one of the BBS chatter (albeit unable to reply) rooting for him or cheering whenever he recounts one of his wonderful dates. Itoh Masaki was luminously beautiful although her role didn't really give her much room to explore beyond that of a perfect lady but she was still perfect in her role as the OL Aoyama-san.Much of the great acting came from Atushi-san and the rest of the wacky gang of BBS chatters. It pretty fun to see the different character ham it up as cosuplay girl to army freak to even a cameo by a character from Slow Dance. Atushi was perfect as the gawky otaku whom despite his sometimes irritating habit of breaking down in tears every episode, you cant help but be touched by his sincerity and believe that he is truly the man for Aoyama-san. However there are moments, where i felt the directing or editing was awkward but I guess perhaps this might be due to the using of such a fresh idea in this case. Nevertheless, Densha Otoko in my opinion has achieved the top seat for this summer's dramas, and maybe even the entire year. Hopefully fujitv will be able to come up with another equally fun and entertaining show in the future. Good luck to Densha-san and Hermes-san. Itekimasu!

16.	Best Drama of ALL TIME!!!!!!! [Rating: 10/10] This drama is great! Absolutely great! WARNING, Spoilers So, when I picked up this one, I was hesitant. I didn't know anything about the Densha Otoko story before watching this drama. But, after about 5 minutes, I was hooked. The first thing I think worth mentioning is that the story is a simple one. Just a guy trying to figure out how to get the girl. There were a few plot threads that I thought were a bit silly, like the stalker story or the surfing story. But, as much as I thought they were silly, they were really just a backdrop for the real story--the love story between Train Man and Hermes. Then, the real plot points of the drama--Train Man must reveal his otaku-self; Hermes must get over her former boyfriend; Train Man must admit the truth about the internet thread, etc--were excellent! They were so simple! Unlike other love dramas where the third act usually has some kind of twist or weak plot point, this drama just kept getting stronger and stronger. I loved, for example, that scene when Train Man admits his otakuness. I also loved that part when Train Man sees all the signs in Akihabara telling him to go back to the internet thread. The plot was strong and moving. Atsushi and Misaki are really a wonderful couple on screen. Physically, you wouldn't think so, would you? And, I think that this makes the drama much better than any other incarnation of Densha Otoko. I have seen the movie, but the movie actors are a little "too good looking" if you know what I mean. And, the comic of Densha Otoko too suffers from this "too good looking" element. It's kind of like Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady. I mean, Audrey is beautiful, so her playing the ugly unrefined woman who turns into the beautiful woman is not much of a stretch. Atsushi, on the other hand, plays the otaku so well that his tranformation is really wonderful. I just compare how he looks at the beginning of the drama with how he looks in the last episode sitting on the bench with Misaki at night. He looks great! Go Atsushi! And, Misaki is just right for Hermes! Her Shiseido image is perfect! I keep reading all this criticism about her stiff acting. But, actually, her acting is the strongest stuff in the drama. As much as I loved that final confession scene on the roof, I absolutely loved the bit when Misaki, reading the keijiban, gives a little smile when she realizes that Train Man really wanted to hold her hand on their first date. It's like she's thinking, "Ah-hah! I knew it! He liked me!" When this drama ended, I felt a bit like Sakurai San. I wanted to scream, Densha Otoko, COME BACK!!!!! And, Densha Otoko did come back in a special, which was very disappointing. I didn't like it at all. And it proves that Zoku Densha Otoko would probably not fly well. Train Man and Hermes got together. Happy ending! I know there is another story called "Chikan Otoko." Maybe a drama can be based on this story...? In any case, I wanted to write down my thoughts on this, my now no. 1 favorite, drama. And, is it me or is that the theme from Star Wars??

21.	moving me [Rating: 10/10] ok..watching this drama last month but don;t have time to comment it. as for me, this drama really moving me. why? eventhough i'm quite annoying with densha who love to cry but as a loser, i can understand why. loving such a lovely woman and he know this thing never happen ever again so, the feeling of afraid doing anything wrong and lost HERMES is not a normal feeling to densha. and yes, he's a loser, a total otaku, you can smell it miles away and this make him more low self confidence bout he's doing and wasn't so sure bout her feeling. if you really watch this movie, you can see densha is growing from a total otaku to more brave man with confidence. and that;s all for HERMES, his love life that never in dream ever happen once for him. even us, as normal human, can take drastic changes like that and will get irritated but he so brave to take it. as for hermes, she also not so sure bout her feeling. and at first place, she never know that densha is an otaku. considering the fact that she doesn't know that, she give fair chance to densha. do you think she will give the chance if she knew that densha is an otaku at first place? how can hermes stand densha? love is unique, and as for hermes, she see densha as very honest person indeed despite densha's weak side who love to cry over small thing. also, she's already old for a marriage, so she just open up her mind to her world to accept person who can get the catchy feeling in her heart. densha is annoying and that's really the tricky part cause total-otaku-with-no-social-life should be as bad as densha. if we never achieve that otakuness level, we actually not having the right to talk about how otaku can be so annoying. remember, newbie also annoying and sometimes, very very basic question can came up from their mouth and so does how otaku can be. as annoying as possible. and if densha really make you annoyed, the actor had done a really great job. ain't he? i have learnt that we should be grateful for who we're. what i can always learn from japanese drama and anime is, there are no such things as giving up easily and appreciate and be thankful for who we're. change for good and may someday, you'll got reward for that. open up your heart and see the good part of a drama and you'll enjoy and be thankful of your life now...

Ito Atsushi does a wonderful acting on this one, although sometimes I was very annoyed with his weakness and his otaku mannerisms, but he does the most memorable funny scenes I´ve ever seen! Ito Misaki does an average job, although her beauty shines. She still need a lot of interpretation classes to hit on a drama. The rest of the cast are pretty good, speacilly the otaku friend of Densha Otoko, Jinkama-san and the other guy who gets obssessed about Saori.

The comedy mixture added into this drama makes this a hit for anyone that feels they cannot love someone that is a total opposite and may judge you differently. Ito Atsushi is not the best actor in the world, but he played this role with such precision that I believe him to be an "otaku". Watch this, and I really mean WATCH IT because you'll be missing out on a drama that will make you laugh til you fall out of your seat! You'll feel so much emotion towards Atsushi's character that you'll think twice before you decide to make fun of a person of his stature ever again.

35.	Overall Amazing^^ [Rating: 9/10] -1 off for Densha's trembling in the end Overall this is one of the best Drama I've seen I love how this one actually has a real believable geek in it verses the movie who used Yamada voted one of the coolest young actor, Masaki's performance was really good to portraying the rich elgant goddess to the lowly Otaku. The Comedy was played out really well except maybe the Stalker ep could have had a more serious ending that just another spineless photo otaku behind it, maybe an actually Stalker that Densha had to fend off would have been better, but its still really good. I loved how the thread residents were portrayed in this show^^ using alot of the actual quotes from the forum too The only thing I really didn't like too much was that in the forum and book Densha actually does grow much more as in he becomes less trembling more courage etc... Although in the beginning the drama was amazing they should have made Densha a stronger character near the end, instead of still crying and trembling this much. also I think it would have been better if Kazuyai would have been an actual even rival for Densha to compete with instead of just a comic relieve. Wow I'm bashing Densha a lot instead of praising it hmm.. but seriously with those points aside this drama is reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllly worth watching. I don't know but it makes you laugh till you cry at some points and cry in with saddness when Densha goes though trouble it was done really nicely. This is probably the best drama of 2005^^ so ya GO WATCH IT

40.	A great drama, but may seem over the top at times [Rating: 8/10] Densha Otoko tells the story of a hardcore Otaku's quest to win the girl of his dreams with a little help from a whole bunch of people all over Japan. The story is very emotional and moves you to root for Densha's character. The show was able to show its message of "just be yourself" without getting preachy or being too cliche. The performances were great for the most part but Itoh Atsushi (Densha Otoko) may annoy some poeple with his over the top crying in nearly every episode. Honestly, who the heck cries like that everytime you talk with the girl your in love with? If you want a show with great comedy and drama, where you cheer for the underdog every episode, this show is for you.

41.	Boring, Dragging, Annoying, Tiring [Rating: 2/10] My review title says it all. I just don't get why other people like it so much~ X_x" It was way corny, very predictable, more than annoying and it literally dragged me. I had to say that the only thing that made me stick throughout the series was the 1-5 seconds Shun Oguri moments scattered throughout the drama. I'd give it a one if i can but Shun Oguri was sooo good-looking there, I had to give it a 2. So i'd say if you're a big Oguri fan, watch it. I got my money's worth because of him~ roflmao

42.	One very unique dorama [Rating: 8/10] A rather unique dorama with a great storyline. Misaki and Atsushi played their roles well with great performance by Miho and the rest of the supporting cast. Atsushi plays his role very well although his character sometimes feels so ridiculously pathetic that it slightly degrades the believability of the story. The storyline was easily one of the most predictable I've ever seen but I definitely enjoyed seeing how the cast handled their parts, in particular all of the people on the forum - the special in the end was quite good in that sense. Definitely recommended for its uniqueness!

44.	Romance followed by millions [Rating: 6/10] I would feel pretty strange if I became just like Hermes, involved in a romance watched and advised by thousands of people... They say that love is between 2 people, but then a good public love is still better than a bad private breakup. I have the pleasure to read the original thread on 2-channel.. To make the drama long enough to fill 11 episodes, the producer has definitely taken the liberty to add some elements, but I consider these extras to be unrealistic and do more harm than good - digressing from the original story line. Oh, don't get me wrong, I still like the drama. But I just don't think it's as good as the golden age love dramas like Tokyo Love Story, Love Generation, Long Vacation, etc. If you are a newage Internet blogger, you may find kinship between the story and your life and may enjoy it more...

49.	Perspective [Rating: 9/10] A lot of viewers have issues with this drama. Ｉ would just like to remind people that this is all entertainment, and it should be viewed from an "entertainment" perspective. People tend to compare it to real life and that just takes away a lot of fun and all the creativity that goes into it is lost, be it music, movies, books, or any sort of "art". This isn't a documentary, so what if it's unrealistic here and there? Also, I have noticed a trend in these Japanese dramas to "overact". It's not only Densha Otoko that overacts; a lot of other dramas do it too, that's just how it is when they want to make that "kind" of comedy. There should be a sub-genre for these called "overacting" drama (j/k). Also, please keep in mind that these are "Japanese" dramas. That is, they are made in Japan for the Japanese. In other words, keep in mind the "culture" difference. People here on this site are mostly people of other countries and cultures, and it just wouldn't be fair to these dramas to judge them based on your own country's standards or cultural differences. It was a great drama, and I　ｒｅｓｐｅｃｔ　ｔｈｅ　ｐｒｏｄｕｃｅｒｓ　ｉｍｍｅｎｓｌｙ． I especially liked the music; it fits the drama so well. The lyrics to "Twilight" and "Mr. Roboto" totally relates to the situation of the typical "Otaku". It shows how much effort they put into these dramas. Finally, I had the pleasure to see the other finale, and it was great! They were really creative to do a pseudo alternative ending that ties everything together. It was fun to see how they weaved it together and it makes me wonder if they had this all planned from the beginning or not because if they didn't, it was genius how they came up with that alternative ending.

52.	An absolute trainwreck... [Rating: 4/10] not to mention a slap in the face to the real densha otoko. Can a script be more overly-dramatic/exaggerated? The appeal of the densha otoko story is the improbable romance did and can take place in real life. However, this dramatic rendition perverts that idea into a preposterous fairy tale nobody can identify with. Itosh Atsushi's over-acting makes it all the more unbearable. His portrayal of densha will go down in J-drama history as the most puny, spineless, pitiful, sniveling-weasel-like, poor-excuse-for-a-human-being character ever created! The guy acts like he's about to die from a nervous breakdown. His constantly whiny face and apologetic behavior makes me puke. Perhaps his moniker should be changed to "Trainwreck Man" because watching his hysterical crying fits gives one the same mental anguish as witnessing a tragic derailment accident. The last episode was building up toward what could be the first genuinely touching scene of the series until train boy started sobbing and hyperventilating uncontrollably (again). Hermes-san probably accepted his confession out of pity rather than love--after all, who could refuse the entreating of a wretched, fragile creature spewing tears and mucus all over the floor. I only forced myself to finish the drama for the lovely Itoh Misaki as well as the occasional glimpses of Maki in schoolgirl uniform, cool ASCII art wiz Oguri Shun, and Darth Miho.

53.	Otaku's Rock! [Rating: 9/10] I managed to complete this drama in two and a half sittings… it was THAT addictive. Although the story has become a cliché in western society, this is the first time I'm seeing something like this in a Japanese drama. As a computer junky myself, I found the concept to be really successful. I loved the way they gave a face to the different personalities on the internet, and how we could see the relationship growing between perfect strangers and Densha. I watched the drama on my laptop and at times I felt as if I, too, was one of the many people ranting at the forum. Itoh Atsushi as Densha Otoko is my new crush. Although I found his nervousness a bit tiresome at times, his kawai-ness totally made up for it. He played the role of an otaku so well that I can't imagine him in any other role. Itoh Misaki was also the result of perfect casting. She was convincing as the rich, beautiful, incredibly sweet lead female. And although the two main characters are the most unlikely to ever end up together, the chemistry between them was amazing. My only qualm with this drama was that the ending was so drawn out and redundant. The love confession took longer than was necessary, and the individual good-byes from Densha's internet pals was too repetitive. Other than that, the drama was amazing and highly recommended!

Starring the beautiful Itoh Misaki as the woman who fell in love with the Otaku guy, Itoh Atsushi. i find this drama very enjoyable specially when the Otaku guy asking for some help in the Aladdin Channel forum (forum exclusively in Japan) on how will he do to make that woman fall for her. and he considered the guys in the forum as his friends. they called the Otaku guy "Densha Otoko". thats it right now. i wont spoil you guys anymore. but one thing for sure this is truly a wonderful love story ive ever seen not to mention it is a true story. Itoh Misaki and Itoh Atsushi did a brilliant performance in their roles. if i can give this series a 100 out of 10 i will give this one. but i dont think thats possible. this is the 2nd great drama for me after GTO Live action. now i believe miracles could happen. this drama proves it.

The humor is just silly, but not lovely-silly (as e.g. in 'Yama Onna, Kabe Onna' also starring Itoh Misaki), just stupid-silly. Yamada is too pathetic, too exaggerated with all that stammering (too much !!!), allthough I 'like' him more, than Ichitarou in 'Glory Days' (just 200% pathetic & annoying !!!) Misaki is much better as 'tomboy', so Yamada's sister and Mizuzki as tomboys I liked most, nearly the only reason, why I've finished this serie. Certainly not, because of Densha Otoko or Itoh Misaki, Hermes' character didn't fit her at all (I love her as Natsumi in 'You're under Arrest' or 'Yama Onna,...'). If you want a beatuful, really heartwarming romantic comedy, better wtch 'Boku dake no Madonna', 'Long Vacation' or 'Satorare'..........these are much, much, much more lovely !!!!

Although if you think about it, having a person get that obsessed over a complete stranger, and then having it broadcasted all over the internet is sort of freaky.

12.	Comments by donna8157 [Rating: 10/10] A romantic comedy revolving around an otaku who falls in love with a woman that he saves on the train. The story is based off of a true story that had taken place on the Channel 2 Singles Forums which later turned into a popular book, movie, and manga series. Many argue that the drama version of the story is the best. Itoh Atsushi creates a very believable Yamada, the epitome of otaku geekiness - one who loves anime and roams around Akihabara in search for more anime/manga. He meets Aoyama on the train and saves her from being harassed by a drunk. From then on, it's history. The series was very comedic and fairy tale-like in nature and I found myself laughing at many of the scenes, especially when he was asking for advice from his internet friends. The side characters were important and crucial to the development and layering of the overall plot. It was a great and memorable series, one I'm sure that will be on many, many people's favorites.

I really liked this drama at first, but the main character really annoys me. His cowardness is just so overexagerrated beyond my belief to the point that I want to stop watching. The gags are getting corny too with the "forum buddies" in that they're something you're more likely to see in an anime. It's sentai show-cheesiness.

40.	Comments by pumpkin puff [Rating: 8/10] It's a very interesting plot and I think the guy character did a great job portraying an otaku.
41.	Comments by Tatakau [Rating: 10/10] Just waiting on the last episode now but this drama is amazing, all I can think of the moment is watching the last episode, a true classic.
42.	Comments by Pochi [Rating: 9/10] Densha Otoko is a great drama about a young timid otaku.. I didn't finish watching it yet (there's the last episode) Still I think it's worth watching! ^__^ I liked it very much!
43.	Comments by laudakwah [Rating: 7/10] Pretty funny.
44.	Comments by V(~^____^~)S [Rating: 7/10] I haven't finished it yet but I love it. I really don't like the girl who plays the main girl person XDXD but that's not really important. the acting was pretty awesome from everyone
45.	Comments by DreamCasts [Rating: 10/10] Great Movies..Must C.. Hopes for love to everyone out there..

47.	Comments by Mengo [Rating: 8/10] Hilarious drama based on a true story
48.	Comments by meiohsetsuna [Rating: 10/10] The best romantic comedy of the year! This drama makes you laugh, makes you cry, and makes you jump up and down going, "Ganbatte, Densha!" This story marks the trials of an Otaku trying to win the love of a Goddess, who he saved from a terrible pervert on the train. His greatest strength comes from the advice and support of his friends on an internet bulletin board.
49.	Comments by aiamano [Rating: 10/10] Superb... funny, entertaining and touching... Nice to know it was based on a real story.
50.	Comments by Hemilya [Rating: 9/10] The story is sweet and kind, and there's not much to cry about compared to some other dramas. All the characters are king, and somehow all of this seems very non-real. But nevertheless it's a good story, even if a bit nonrealistic. Should watch it if you're missing kind and happy-ending dramas.
51.	Comments by Takeya [Rating: 10/10] A great story with an otaku against all odds trying to date a beautiful woman. It features great acting and plot development.
52.	Comments by yo-chan [Rating: 10/10] hilarious!!! just great!! although the ending is a bit clichee XD thinking about that this is based on a true story I cannot stop laughing and smiling because it's a fairy tale come true!
53.	Comments by Wisteria [Rating: 7/10] Seen the first episode, and I'll definitely be waiting for the rest of the series to download. Funny and cute, the male lead is very good at being a geek.
54.	Comments by NevErEnD [Rating: 10/10] one of the greatest drama i ever watched,it was such a touching love story
55.	Comments by maguro666 [Rating: 8/10] still haven't finished watching this.. but definitely awesome story line
56.	Comments by bLaCkNbLuE [Rating: 10/10] Densha wo suki desu! KITA!
57.	Comments by Lee-chan [Rating: 7/10] Very fun and easy to get in to, but slow at times. Once again, the side characters were the best part.
58.	Comments by aiscess [Rating: 10/10] Subarashii!!! It's like a guy version of Cinderella and he has so many fairy godmother. A romatic-comedy series. It's very funny and it's easy to relate too.
59.	Comments by AjiKan [Rating: 9/10] Such a sweet drama. It took me a while to finish, but once finished, i was glad i did. This drama touched me in such a way, because it is about the every-man. Otaku meets girl, otaku likes girl, otaku needs help getting the girl. It gives hope to those who have lost it. There is not much back-story on the members of the "Single's Thread", but they all speak to you through their characters. Through 11 episodes, you see Densha's hardships through trying to impress her. This is definitely a must-see drama. 9/10.
60.	Comments by yume [Rating: 10/10] A hilarious love comedy!!!
61.	Comments by Ralbol [Rating: 10/10] Excellent ! Densha is such a loser, and Hermes such a beauty.
62.	Comments by noodlefreak [Rating: 10/10] had lots of fun watching this drama. very funny and entertaining
63.	Comments by terra-kun [Rating: 10/10] It almost made me cry like 20 times
64.	Comments by rodprime79 [Rating: 10/10] Very funny and heartwarming drama. I haven't been so attached to a story like this one ever since Long Vacation. Definitely one of my top favorites. Go Densha!!
65.	Comments by Amika [Rating: 8/10] very interesting and funny drama.. one of the best drama of the year...
66.	Comments by fighterpilot [Rating: 10/10] If you don't know by now... 20% viewership in japan.. WATCH IT!

68.	Comments by jo [Rating: 7/10] Funny moments are good...OVER ACTING IN SO MANY SCENES..wwwwwaattasshiii bakaaaaaa....dessssssuuuu. I'd be blunt that was stupid acting by the lead character, always crying out for no reason. Geez, man I've know many geeks and fanboys, they're not so emotionally weak like this drama was trying to portray them..They said it's a true story but they changed so much stuff in the script to make it more look funny..that it wasn't funny anymore. Jinkkama-san was funny & hot though. I'll take her anytime. B -
69.	Comments by PeterXXL [Rating: 10/10] very nice and touching dorama - 10/10
70.	Comments by AerialAsian [Rating: 10/10] OMFG...this is amazzzziiiinnggggggg. Makes u laff, makes u cry..makes u feel great.
71.	Comments by michiru3 [Rating: 9/10] This was really really enjoyable to watch. Plus, I like that even tho it's a romance, it's not so oogy-gooey love-love that it becomes sickening. My only complaint is that it's a big TOO exaggerated, altho I suppose it goes w/ the show. Also, other than the fact that she's really pretty, I still don't get what's so great about Hermes...she's too plain a chara to fall in love w/. Jinkama's chara was really interesting to watch, especially in the Special =)
72.	Comments by lightningemperor [Rating: 9/10] Finally finished watching this great series. I shouldn't have delayed it for so long. They should've had the same cast for the movie.
73.	Comments by kaonashi [Rating: 8/10] Geek gets the hot girl type of story. It's quite funny & since it's based on a true story it brings hope to every otaku outthere. Definitely worth watching.
74.	Comments by yamete_evie [Rating: 7/10] This insight into the life of an Otaku is humorous and touching. There's a nice mix of romance and modern day internet culture. Densha was a gentleman but could get tiresome. Hermes was sweet and Shiraishi Miho was hilarious in her part.Good drama, but sometimes slow and repetitious
75.	Comments by JunsenJapan [Rating: 9/10] lmao so stupid.
76.	Comments by pandaguitarist [Rating: ?/10] i don't feel like rating this... the drama is so off from the novel. READ THE NOVEL. it's like 100000x more accurate and better..lol
77.	Comments by enen_shun [Rating: 10/10] Densha Otoko's GREAT !!!!!!!! it was sooo funny and touchy at the same time !!! really recommend those who've not watch this to go watch !!! (ps : my oguri shun's sooo kakkoii in it ... hahahaz ... faints)
78.	Comments by abbyneesan [Rating: 5/10] I didnt really like this drama. It was funny and everything, but I dunno, it just didnt capture me like some other dramas have. I couldnt even bring myself to finish it xD I do have to give the show credit tho for Itoh Atsushi's great acting and Shun Oguri's hotness ^.^
79.	Comments by Q-chan [Rating: 9/10] A veery great dorama... As good as the dorama... Hilarious but also touchy! Hayami Mokomichi... Argh!
80.	Comments by yami [Rating: 10/10] the best!! this was so funny! just laughed my head off XD
81.	Comments by x_XJules [Rating: 7/10] who would have ever thought a forum could help an otaku date a beautiful woman? also, who would have thought an otaku could be such a huge inspiration? Very cute and the side characters are a joy to watch
82.	Comments by kenike1 [Rating: 7/10] funny drama
83.	Comments by niti [Rating: 10/10] Densha otok; oh, my how I loved this series, it is my recent Jdorama. It was good in every way. I loved it from beginning until the end -wonderful. I recommend this to every Jdorama lover. If anybody knows series like this one then you must contact me and tell me witch one because I have to see it. It was funny, so darn cool, and wonderful ending, great actors too. 10/10 Is what I will give this JDorama.
84.	Comments by katatsumuri [Rating: 10/10] MY All time favorite drama!
85.	Comments by LuVinEm [Rating: 10/10] Train man and Hermes!! hehe must see dis one!! so funny start and sad and happy end! hehe with Itoh Misaki, Itoh Atsushi, Shiraishi Miho, Oguri Shun and many more!!... so many cute japanese girls too ^^'
86.	Comments by romi510 [Rating: 10/10] I have read the book beforehand, so I was really looking forward to watching this drama. Highly entertaining, did not disappoint. IMHO, this is so much better than the movie version. Check it out!
87.	Comments by IkematsuSosuke [Rating: 9/10] Good drama. Itou Misaki looks very beautiful in this drama..main reason why I like this drama..it's touching and encouraging..maybe one day I'll be with Itou Misaki..lol..one thing that annoyed me was how the main character talked..in the begining it was okay..but towards the end I thought he would be over it..it's way beyond nervousness..he's freakin crying! annoying..but it's still good..Misaki-san I love you!
88.	Comments by qilver [Rating: 10/10] This one was so hilarious, super funny. Great comedy/drama series. Misaki Itou was beautiful, so was Miho Shirashi and Eriko Satou. The main character otaku, that guy was so funny.
89.	Comments by gsr_raver [Rating: 8/10] Kinda boring, becasue too much nerds talking back and forward. althought it when you see the main character and his CRUSH. it's really good. also i think Shiraishi Miho is SO CUTE!! kiweeeeeee
90.	Comments by natzumi [Rating: 6/10] It was okay. I didn't like the chat scenes because they are quite boring. This drama is limited because of that. No idea why the rating is so high.
91.	Comments by xhidex33 [Rating: 9/10] Funny stuff. Really liked it... though it was unbearably embarrassing at times...=_______=
92.	Comments by IniQx [Rating: 8/10] A rather cute drama with a very interesting plot. Somewhat like a fairy tale! Too good to be true. Thumbs-up for the excellent performance by Itoh Atsushi as Densha. He is so nerdy but cute at the same time. Got kinda irritated at the overly long scenes where the BBS participants chat & give their support & encouragement for Densha. Prefer watching Densha & Hermes-san together. Nonetheless, this is a refreshing drama that stands out.
93.	Comments by Tougen [Rating: 8/10] I thought the dorama was well done, but I felt that the writer didnt establish a strong enough reason for Hermes' attraction to Densha. It was okay that he was a geek, but he should have had at least one strong point to balance out the rest of his character. Dasai, cowardly, and dishonest...3 strikes ur out!...Or if she were a closet otoko herself this might have worked too
94.	Comments by gotosira [Rating: 10/10] Sugoi is the final word
95.	Comments by Aunty Coco [Rating: ?/10] Just bought
96.	Comments by Satomi_Ishihara [Rating: 10/10] The acting is VERY good! Oh, and the story! GREAT!! My Favorite drama!!!
97.	Comments by Spriter [Rating: 9/10] So painful yet so much fun!
98.	Comments by jusco240sx [Rating: 10/10] The actors in this are really what makes it great. Itoh Misaki is absolutely gorgeous, Shiraishi Miho is hilarous, and Itoh Atsushi plays his role as an otaku so well that you will literally stand up at times to cheer him on. Truly don't miss this dorama!
99.	Comments by tachan [Rating: 6/10] kind of embarassing...
100.	Comments by aki_07 [Rating: 7/10] Train man does nothing but cry. Is it a true story? Find it hard to believe a beautiful woman would fall for a man like this. But the internet chat and characters are extremely funny, prefer to watch them than the couple.
101.	Comments by doc0 [Rating: 8/10] the first watched drama as good as a movie for me :)
102.	Comments by K.T.Tran [Rating: 10/10] This drama is so funny and inspiring to those who are single like Yamada san IMO. I laughed during every episode
103.	Comments by Bodhi [Rating: 10/10] If you like Anime you'll love this
104.	Comments by Shotzen [Rating: 10/10] Gives me hope that one day i might find a girlfriend... ok not really, but its still really fun to watch.
105.	Comments by gomibagu [Rating: 8/10] Very funny, but kinda dragged on a bit.
106.	Comments by atleast13 [Rating: ?/10] I like this dorama. It's definitely a feel-good movie. It's really, really funny and I'd recommend it to any net surfers and otakus. wahaha. Although, I don't find it realistic. ok, maybe it is but I don't know anyone with this experience.
107.	Comments by usagi_on_the_moon [Rating: 9/10] HILARIOUS!! I loved it!!
108.	Comments by geezbee [Rating: 9/10] This drama made me fall in love with Itoh Misaki. :) I loved some of her other dramas such as Gokusen, Tiger and Dragon, You're Under Arrest...but this drama really makes her stand out. Although I thought her character was just too unreal (perfectly beautiful and innocent office lady), I belived this is one of the reasons she has many fans.

110.	Comments by cheeqo [Rating: 3/10] annoying otoko. unrealistic. grab the special/alternative ending though, it's very good. you can forget about the rest 11 episodes.
111.	Comments by lucasnaruto [Rating: 10/10] Kitta ...... thats all i can say.
112.	Comments by lalaland [Rating: ?/10] Haven't finished yet. THe main character is kind of annoying, but we'll see.
113.	Comments by williu [Rating: 10/10] Amazing drama! It hooks you from the very first episode with its charm and spirit. All the actors do a great job, and the fact that it's based on a real story just makes it all even more worthwile! Fantastic, and a must-see!
114.	Comments by shortmei [Rating: 8/10] Hilariously enjoyable.
115.	Comments by MissMonika [Rating: 10/10] I really love this drama! It makes you want to believe in miracles, especially for all single people out there. It totally reminds me of my brother because he looks like the main character. hehehe
116.	Comments by Qky [Rating: 10/10] Very touching and funny at the same time. I have to admit that this dorama is very different than the others. The story itself still evolves around love and relationship between men and women, however, it is served in different circumstances and conditions. The story is somewhat true and closer to reality than what we might have thought. I really like this dorama; superb story; a must watch!! A plus is the ending song by Sambomaster (Sekai wa sore wo ai to yobundaze); it is a magnificent song!
117.	Comments by Karupin [Rating: 7/10] Nice drama
118.	Comments by uglymale [Rating: 7/10] i liked the otaku and akihabara bit. funny but exaggerated at times; made me cringe. towards the end it was draggy. i hope the movie's better!
119.	Comments by tabana [Rating: 10/10] Awesome! Very very funny, geeky and Misaki Itoh is amazing as always. Go and watch it!
120.	Comments by Xianyang [Rating: 10/10] Superb!!!
121.	Comments by Spyde- [Rating: 8/10] A very entertaining drama! I loved it how things were misunderstood and made things more complicated!
122.	Comments by ilovedrama [Rating: 7/10] One of the earlier ones I watched. Thought it was funny and got me hook on jdorama. But after seeing more and more dorama this one just no longer impress me.
123.	Comments by ichigo90 [Rating: 6/10] kinda nice.... (^.^) can't really say..
124.	Comments by glayjiro1017 [Rating: 9/10] Great! Very funny and interesting to watch!
125.	Comments by chrisje [Rating: 9/10] Great drama! Unique plot & great ending song! ^^ I'll never regret to buy this one.
126.	Comments by Hinano [Rating: 10/10] Probably my favorite drama of all this year. This is definitely better than the movie, I recommend this for everyone who has ever watched anime or chatted online xD
127.	Comments by Sailorprinzess [Rating: 10/10] I can not begin to explain how funny this series is! I HIGHLY recommend this drama! The story is amazing, plus it is based on true events. How cool is that?
128.	Comments by kneehard [Rating: 10/10] this has to be one of the weirdest drama's i've ever watched to date. fantastic acting for itoh misaki..she really protrays hermes beautifully and yamada-san did a great job as well. oguri shun and the tall guy from gokusen2 were in there as well..as well as horikita maki from Nobuta wo Produce..great cast!!
129.	Comments by Rainee [Rating: 8/10] Its a touching but hilarious show... Hermes~~
130.	Comments by aibakaneko [Rating: 10/10] A very good Drama to watch... so therefore.. MUST WATCH. hehehe
131.	Comments by Tsuyoshi's girl [Rating: 2/10] A lousy show!!
132.	Comments by Kirari Ililah [Rating: 9/10] Awesome, hilaroius, a must see for anyone! A love story, but it's one that'll make you aww, and feel sorry for either character!
133.	Comments by butterLiLy [Rating: 8/10] One of the funniest drama I've ever watched this year (2005)!! You get the taste of how an otaku lives are like. But then again you'll tend to get annoyed at Yamada >.<
134.	Comments by hitokiri333 [Rating: 9/10] fun drama to watch, itoh misaki is awesome in this show. Definately changes an american perspective of an otaku.
135.	Comments by Criminalist [Rating: 7/10] Pretty OK but took to long for his confession.
136.	Comments by linco [Rating: 7/10] it was funny, but i think it was overrated. not as good as i expected but still funny.
137.	Comments by Jadhu [Rating: 9/10] I loved this one so much. Gotta get more JDorama ^^
138.	Comments by Orion [Rating: 10/10] this is the one of the best dorama in 2005........
139.	Comments by xxhiroxx [Rating: 8/10] Excellent drama. Full of humorous and touching moments. Though the ending doesn't really satisfy and live up to the expectation built up by the rest of the drama.
140.	Comments by miriambr [Rating: 10/10] so fun!
141.	Comments by KameShun2o9 [Rating: 9/10] I only watched 2 so far, the otaku-ness is halarious!!
142.	Comments by ScrappedShinigami [Rating: 8/10] A really great show, I thorougly enjoyed it, makes it all the more sweeter to know that it was based on a true story sways kya how cute! Anyway the characters were enjoyable, I loved Hayami Mokomichi as the protective brother, I keep inadvertantly finding dramas with him in, maybe fate is trying to tell me something! Anyway I loved the soundtrack I must find it now, sounded very 80's <3 A really heart warming story and it wasn't painful at all, definitely worth a watch very very funny and very sweet ^_^
143.	Comments by Kordox [Rating: 10/10] Best drama I have ever watched!
144.	Comments by Shindou [Rating: 8/10] A rather unique dorama with a great storyline. Misaki and Atsushi played their roles well with great performance by Miho and the rest of the supporting cast. Atsushi plays his role very well although his character sometimes feels so ridiculously pathetic that it slightly degrades the believability of the story. The storyline was easily one of the most predictable I've ever seen but I definitely enjoyed seeing how the cast handled their parts, in particular all of the people on the forum - the special in the end was quite good in that sense. Definitely recommended for its uniqueness!
145.	Comments by Milano [Rating: 9/10] Original, interesting, funny.
146.	Comments by supermidget [Rating: 8/10] Very entertaining. Tells the funny (supposedly true) story of a young Okaku (nerd) who gets into an fairy-tale-like affair with this beautiful woman. Maybe it was not so realistic (though it is a true story???), but still enjoyable. Lot's of humor as well. Even if you're sceptical, you should see it since every one in Japan knows it (either story, drama, movie, manga, anime whatever there is about Densha Otoko).
147.	Comments by eltinator [Rating: 10/10] A true underdog story! This drama was so funny and exciting the whole way. I was on the edge of my seat screaming along with the other characters of the show. Itoh Misaki was simply ravishing and Itoh Atsushi was down right hilarious! Best drama of the year!
148.	Comments by lynn minmei [Rating: 7/10] it's too good to be true.
149.	Comments by littlemissfab [Rating: 9/10] On the funny scale.. it's a 9 "Sea turtle laying eggs!!"

151.	Comments by alfin [Rating: 9/10] im so touched by this one..... no words to describe it... you MUST watch this one....
152.	Comments by mukashi [Rating: 9/10] I always wanted people to make movie about Internet society, and here it is:) It gives me hope too:) And it's based on true story @@ lol, I want to be a part of some thread like this too!
153.	Comments by Etsuko [Rating: 5/10] Really sweet drama. The fact that it was based on a true story made it all the more sweet!
154.	Comments by shanghai_honey [Rating: 9/10] I loved watching Densha Otoko! The story is so funny and touching at the same time. Itoh Misaki is perfect as Hermes, so soft and dreamy looking, and Densha acted very well as an inept but lovable Otaku. The were times I wanted to sock him for all his nervous stuttering and times when I wanted to stand up and cheer him on! All his internet buddies were very entertaining too, Densha is one lucky bastard. Kittaaaaa!!!!!
155.	Comments by dee8o8 [Rating: 10/10] I LOVED THIS DORAMA!! one of the best ive watched.. it has drama!it has comedy!! it has suspense!! it'll keep you guessing and at times makes you want to reach in the tv and slap some fools!!! also it has romance.. awww DEFINATELY A MUST WATCH!!!!!! IMO its a comedy/romance/drama .. however last 2 could be swapped around.. excellent mix of genres though! LAUGH! CRY! everything.. a must watch!!
156.	Comments by paulinho__ [Rating: 10/10] Very good!
157.	Comments by lawsco [Rating: 7/10] Synopsis made this sound really good but it turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment. Maybe I was expecting too much? Still, it was worth watching. Personally I thought it tended to drag in the middle.
158.	Comments by v1olet [Rating: 9/10] Fresh and unique story. It's amazing, how netters could give such a big support to one's life (though they never meet each other), and on the other hand, otaku's story could brighten up netters' days. The story we've been waiting for.
159.	Comments by aspenwood [Rating: 10/10] Interesting story with a great cast
160.	Comments by ^aPPLe^ [Rating: 3/10] OMG.. I must have had nothing better to do... I can't believe that i finished watching the whole thing... =.=''

164.	Comments by syu77 [Rating: 10/10] halfway watching this drama...really love it. very funny and entertaining!!!!
165.	Comments by Lucian Dureau [Rating: 10/10] This is one of the most funny doramas that you can see. Although the story is about an Otaku (arrj!), the argument is soo cute and intimate. So hilarious the Kosuke Toyohara's character!, and to see in action to Eriko Sato is really a great pleasure!, you will see a courage Otaku!! (incredible!), and if you don't have a favourite j-dorama actress yet, no problem!!, you will fall in love with Misaki Itoh, she makes miracles with Densha Otoko. Benoist!! A fantastic Love Story that won't disappoint to nobody. I Recomend it!!
166.	Comments by UzumakiJr [Rating: 10/10] this is the best drama I've ever seen, the chara is very in to their roles,I cried a lot whatcing this drama
167.	Comments by ainangst [Rating: 5/10] i can't make myself to watch this. it just doesn't appeal to me
168.	Comments by Abi-kun [Rating: 10/10] I'm a total Densha Otoko Otaku ^_^. Great show, i've seen it TWICE and I still want to watch more... Misaki Itoh IS THE BEST JAPANESE DRAMA ACTRESS EVER!!!
169.	*Comments by ume* [Rating: 9/10]** funny but yet it is heart warming to watch
170.	Comments by Fight-oh [Rating: 10/10] Classic Show about a young man who helps a young tall girl named Hermes (Saori) from being hurt by a drunked old man... Even though he isn't brave he still helps her and gets hurt. Densha Otoko is lovestruck and wants to meet Saori but he is to afraid.. Somehow Densha works up the courage to ask her on a date by going onto the internet and talking with people for their opinions in a thread. At first he is scared to open up to her at first with his feelings but as he talks to her more and gets to know her more, he gets more comfortable being with her and talking to her

181.	Comments by dat1pinoydude [Rating: 10/10] Really funny drama, densha mite get a bit annoying at first, but its characters are lovable and memorable. One of the best dramas ive watched.
182.	Comments by xiong_here [Rating: 10/10] Its so painfully cheesy and I loved every minute of it! Its an OTAKU's dream come true and it unbearably addicting watching what he'll do next. This is a great light-comedy romance and it shows!
183.	Comments by Jackykero [Rating: 3/10] I went to the end of it, and I have to admit that this dorama stands out a little bit (due to its different style), but it was not as memorable as many others. Probably because I did not buy in the play of the 2 main characters, who seemed to extreme for me.
184.	Comments by hurh. [Rating: 9/10] Actually, I'm not really a fan of the two leads. xD;; I think Itoh Misaki is really pretty though, and I liked her as Hermes. Itoh Atsushi as Densha was kind of annoying, but I guess it works. Sometimes I did not want to watch him though. >_>;; Still, I enjoyed this drama a lot. xD;; Very entertaining! It's very funny and I like all the supporting characters. Lots of fun to watch and at times it's really touching. Good stuff.
185.	Comments by phoenix_angkasa [Rating: 9/10] A story of a lonely and misunderstood (but kind-hearted) anime otaku who falls in love with a rich and beautiful office lady that he meets on the train, except this time there is no fairy godmother. The man has to receive advice from his gang of internet friends in order to find ways to court the woman. Itoh Atsushi portrays the very geeky, Yamada who has known only one love in his life - anime, mainly Mina the anime heroine with carrots propelling from her buttocks. He falls in love with Itoh Misaki's character, Aoyama - who is very far, far from his league. Through hard work and a lot of changing, Yamada breaks away from some of his otaku-ness with help from his friends in order to court the woman of his dreams. A very funny, but touching romantic drama.
186.	Comments by Guy_Viet [Rating: 8/10] Very funny but sometimes, otakus characters are just too much and I just wanted to skip those scene to see the real story
187.	Comments by mmyy [Rating: 4/10] I think I enjoyed this till episode 3 or 4 before I got sick of the stereotypings in general. No offence, but this show is a total embarassment to otakus unlike Densha here. Dumb, boring and unimpressive acting from both main leads. The male went overboard with his expressions while the female's expressions are mostly off.
188.	Comments by bcgurl [Rating: 9/10] Hilarious. And some parts quite touching. Maybe the part where he had to leave the thread because he was no longer single.. Or something like that. A bit draggy and irritating but I guess that should be part of the show, eh?
189.	Comments by sasukekun6 [Rating: 10/10] Great drama! Really funny and it's a fun look at Japanese otaku.
190.	Comments by mushy [Rating: 8/10] Where I first met Horikita. Great actor play mean, naughty and silent.
191.	Comments by ivy99 [Rating: 10/10] the best series ever! watch it! i find its more satisfying than the movie version so watch it now!!!!
192.	Comments by kanshu [Rating: 9/10] Scarily accurate, with a little tongue-in-cheek about the (non-existant) romance life of an anime fanboy. I liked the character developement, and how this show manages to pull off the humor in the sad situation of fandom vs. romance without it being degrading.
193.	Comments by Yue [Rating: 9/10] Sweet drama that I have seen in a while. It's a beauty and a geek drama, which I'm glad that they decided to film/make. Go geeks and otaku!
194.	Comments by CheeSauce [Rating: 9/10] This was very original and fun. I love the internet aspect!!! After watching this I feel like going to chatrooms =D The ending was a little... neh but the drama overall ROCKED so it was ok! I love it!
195.	Comments by illuminati [Rating: 9/10] Funny
196.	Comments by youhei_mito [Rating: 7/10] the first-half of the series was practically pain-staking to watch. -_-" the train man was a total loser in the beginning. however, the story sort of picked up towards the end and there were some moments where i really felt for the characters. however, the last 10 minutes of the entire show was almost unbearably draggy as well ^^; but i'll give it props for coming up with the most original & romantic love-letter ^_^
197.	Comments by Kiyomi L. Denise [Rating: 4/10] Super sorry to say, I regretted buying this drama. Watching it was okay, but certainly not worth buying. What to do, I bought it all because of Oguri Shun.... but then again, how can they do this to me? Shun's part were SOOOO little!!!! Hmph!!! Sigh...
198.	Comments by kai0227 [Rating: 10/10] Great story, good character development too. The drama really pulls you in. Itou Atsushi was amazing as Densha Otoko.

204.	Comments by Aki-Michiru [Rating: 9/10] nice drama
205.	Comments by jica [Rating: 5/10] This drama was really funny, since I'm a computer nerd myself I enjoyed to watch it. But I don't like neither the main female or male lead, so this isn't going to be any favourite.
206.	Comments by prismatic_star [Rating: 10/10] Hilarious yet leaves you with extreme fuzziness of love. POW. My goodness. I'd watch this drama all over again!
207.	Comments by boru [Rating: 10/10] Loved it! Very well made. It's a notch above all drama's I have seen up till now. I also like the scenery since I have never been to japan. Liked the music too. Very good and well thought out production.
208.	Comments by soupychan [Rating: ?/10] Want to see (downloaded)
209.	Comments by KokiChan [Rating: 9/10] This drama totaly got me ^^ I found myself rooting for Densha the same way the members of his forum were. I actually almost felt like one of them ^^ Even if Hermes is a little too sweet and naive, I think the whole cast is good. Evil-Kazuya made me laught a lot and, french being my main language, all the "Benoit!" too... lol. I must admit that I kept looking to catch a glimpse of Oguri Shun (so cool!) ^-~

211.	Comments by MrNiceGuy [Rating: 10/10] Briliant! The best drama I've ever seen still now. Itou Misaki kawaii. Howcome this bases on a real story! For me it may just happen in the movie. Honesty and courage make love happen. Wonderful!

216.	Comments by addicted2tackey [Rating: 2/10] I find it boring, dragging and tiring. -_-'' And my 2/10 is because of the amazing Shun Oguri. He's the only reason I finished the drama.
217.	Comments by nimadifob [Rating: 8/10] drawn to this show cuz of itoh. bit frustrating watching densha dude, but good stuff

221.	Comments by sexyboy77 [Rating: 10/10] The best J-drama by far. It had me on the edge of my sit...
222.	Comments by zooey [Rating: 7/10] Gives a fairy tale ending to the love life of an otaku. Interesting how it shows the internet as a means by which the main character obtains adive and moral support from kindred spirits.
223.	Comments by hikaruhana [Rating: 10/10] Adored this drama. It made me cry. So beautiful, so absolutely touching. Densha kitaaaaa!
224.	Comments by neon_dragon [Rating: 8/10] This was a good drama, but I think it's too hyped up.

228.	Comments by Sol-Badguy [Rating: 8/10] really good drama, great characters and story
229.	Comments by maAkusutipen [Rating: 8/10] A modern retelling of how an ugly duckling turned into a swan hahahah...
230.	Comments by Rory [Rating: 6/10] An okay drama. I don't know why it's so over-rated. I didn't find it all that interesting.
231.	Comments by ffrostte [Rating: 7/10] I never thought I would like this one. But it just grew on me as the drama moved on and then there came a point wherein I even tried to identified myself with those online fds of Densha's. Haha..worth a watch!
232.	Comments by BijinDatta [Rating: 9/10] My first Japanese drama. Incredibly adorable, although slightly cheesy show - very well acted and just cute!
233.	Comments by ilovetakuya [Rating: 6/10] didn't really like this drama. I didn't like the main guy at all. Although i thought Ito Atsushi is cute in his own way, his character annoyed me so much since he was so shy and weak. He cried so easily.. Also, the character of Hermes was so unrealistic. She has pretty face, great body, and a perfect personality. No girl could be like that. The Hermes character was just so stock. I also didn't really like the music.. The part where Otakus came out kinda bored me. The plot was so simple.... The drama was funny but it didn't exactly make me really laugh.
234.	Comments by czajka [Rating: 7/10] Really warm story, based on facts. Kinda like fairytale :> But, too long, in some moments even boring. Watched it only, bacause of Shun Oguri :*
235.	Comments by CdMe [Rating: 9/10] Extreme cool storytelling / visual style plus convincing actors = great entertainment!
236.	Comments by himitsu-kun [Rating: 9/10] One of the best feel-good doramas ever! Really lost it towards the end though. Doramas are already short being 9 to 12 episodes long; so why all the fluff in this series?
237.	Comments by octane [Rating: 8/10] funny...but don't really like the last two episodes....different pace than the other episodes...
238.	Comments by .kasumi. [Rating: 8/10] This was a very cute dorama~ I couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in two days. xD It made me unable to complete an essay assignment for my English class but oh well! xD

241.	Comments by kumaxell [Rating: 3/10] Sorry, I just can't relate. I keep wanting to smack the guy.
242.	Comments by shiina01 [Rating: 7/10] Oguri Shun looks HOT in this show :)
243.	Comments by Nat [Rating: 9/10] Great, I loved to know a little bit of akihabara, and he was so funny, hilarious. Just the forum parts that made me sleepy a bit.
244.	Comments by tsukushi [Rating: 10/10] PURE ROMANCE! Such a beautiful story!!!! This drama makes me so happy! Watch it if you want to smile and smile! This is a GREAT love story that will sweep you off your feet!
245.	Comments by kenvin [Rating: 10/10] female actress is darn beautiful
246.	Comments by shinji1246 [Rating: 2/10] The humour used in this show is kinda like: guys bumping heads when they bow, slipping on banana skins, falling down the stairs, getting pushed into a swimming pool etc etc...if you think this is what you call 'funny'...then go for it
247.	Comments by dekatrain [Rating: 7/10] Itoh Misaki is strikingly beautiful in this one...obviously she gives hope to all the otaku's out there. Even so, I don't know how anyone could stand that guy's crying episodes one after another...
248.	Comments by oline [Rating: 10/10] I love the story the whole mystery thing going on (train man..). And to think that it is based on areal life thingy is great it gives a lot of dreamy people out there (like me...) a great boost of hope that their long lived fantasies in thier brains might or even will come true someday! It also a great series for girls and even guys... (you know like all those tips for daiting..???). And besides there's a lot of Misaki Itoh exposure surely a lot of guys like that (ani - Akira) as for me its Shun (where's the dialogue ??!!!)Anyway it's that great and all funny, heartwarming and all that !!! TOTALLY LOVE IT !!!!
249.	Comments by stuffed.with.fluff [Rating: 8/10] Much better than the movie. But I don't like Ito Misaki's acting. At least she's prettier than the movie version's Hermes.
250.	Comments by ReDxFred4 [Rating: 10/10] a love between one pretty woman and one shy guy. Their love develops significantly and shows the real bond between man and woman of true love .I recommemend this for anyone who likes to see dramas /w Itoh Misaki..she is awesome in this one!
251.	Comments by cloudy-b [Rating: 9/10] My favorite drama. I can watch it over and over. The only bad part about it is that his whining and crying are too much sometimes. The opening and closing songs are great, the story is very interesting, and the ending is wonderful. The extra episode is really funny as well.
252.	Comments by expanzee [Rating: 7/10] Nice drama. I like this version, and the movie version too. They sure pick the right actor for this drama. I find the single rant thread scene funny.
253.	Comments by requiem [Rating: 7/10] I loved the music, I loved Aoyama, and I loved the ending. The middle of the story gets really toilsome, so I can't really say it's the best choice for people who can't stand a LOT of senseless crying. Nonetheless, I know why it's great.
254.	Comments by Luthiel no Edge [Rating: 8/10] Excellent summer drama. The actors were absolutely amazing and the topic of this drama... well, I felt it was so near from the reality.
255.	Comments by toyshankemo187 [Rating: 9/10] Really, Really, Really interesting. Finished the whole series straight without stopping. A bit overly dramatic on the main character. I just don't understand how he can talk like he does and noone looks at him like a fool. That's a bout the only flaw in this episode. Casting was great, Ito Masaki was hot! Fell in love with her and I hate tall girls. Recommended highly.
256.	Comments by ume [Rating: 2/10] This is about half as good as the movie version, which I'd watched first. It goes into itty gritty details that the movie never mentionned...and I'm not sure I'd prefer to know those details. The main guy was disgusting. It was real pain watching him go on and on in his disgusting whiny voice, even after he changed to "normal" mode...he was DISGUSTING. And Ito Misaki is not as good as the movie Hermes either. Not denying she is pretty but she just isn't as elegant. Whole thing ruined the romance of the movie version. Don't know which one was more true to the real thing.
257.	*Comments by Sayaka* [Rating: 3/10]** A sweet drama and worth checking out, but it didn't really grasp my attention. ^^;
258.	Comments by gto_girlz83 [Rating: 4/10] a boring drama bcoz it keep repeating the story to others..but boz of itoh misaki was act, i still watching it.
259.	Comments by -Takashi- [Rating: 10/10] This was my FIRST dorama. I liked it. Its what got me into doramas. My Japanese friends told me to watch it, so I did and I liked it. I started watching other doramas and it lead to what i am today. This is a good dorama and a must-see for laughs.
260.	Comments by YoNnA [Rating: 6/10] for me its kinda boring..
261.	Comments by jepy_east [Rating: ?/10] hmm...still not watch it
262.	Comments by nishishi [Rating: 1/10] One of the worst doramas i ever watched!!!!! If not the worst... The whole dorama is just a waste of time..... Maybe if u like anime and stuff u may like this dorama... otherwise.... its just terrible!!!! Stupid plot... Strange (and not really funny) characters... Overall its just a big waste of time. But again, maybe those who r into that anime and otaku stuff (and them only) will like this dorama.... If u r not one of them u will probably hate this thing as much as i did.... They could've done a short dorama with this (those thing with less than 10 minutes lenght)... its simple... Otaku (geek) meet girt in the train, Otaku post in the forum.. Otaku cry..... Otaku gets a present for her... Otaku post in the forum.. otaku cry.... Otaku call her.. otaku post in the forum... Otaku cry... and this goes on until the last episode (when he finally kiss her!!!) Damn... u must be an Otaku to like something like that!
263.	Comments by Anees [Rating: 8/10] Good acting, the story got a little exaggerated, but still it was really funny and great to watch!
264.	Comments by lesamouraifou [Rating: 9/10] A little bit boring at some times but good.. I like Densha's friends on the internet. Everyone of them is so funny!! I found the movie better than the Drama! It may be because Itoh Atsushi cryes too much.
265.	Comments by SmiLeeGirl [Rating: ?/10] tried to watch because everyone said it was good -- he realy isn't that good looking -- maybe I need to watch the movie first
266.	Comments by lostdancer [Rating: 10/10] Really funny!!!
267.	Comments by Andan [Rating: 8/10] Loved it thoroughly! Actors are great and the story is funny and moving. I much prefer the TV series to the film, which doesn't have the time to develop characters.
268.	Comments by lisajayne [Rating: 6/10] It was ok!! Misaki Itoh was so Sweet
269.	Comments by Signo [Rating: 10/10] Until now it's the best Dorama I have ever seen! Simply everything is right: Great story, great actors and great soundtrack. So watch it and have fun !!!

273.	Comments by ~ushi~ga~iru~ [Rating: 7/10] the first j-dorama I watched and really liked, a good recommendation for any anime fans who would like a good drama. a good mix of silly humor, romance and sort of a otaku/geek power that alota people can relate to.
274.	Comments by heyheybp [Rating: 1/10] I like the movie, but don't like the dorama.

281.	Comments by Goldhawkz [Rating: 10/10] Such a good drama.. at first, i thought this drama is lame. however, after seeing how nice ppl in the forum are, and how densha struggle to get his love, and how kawaii itoh misaki is, i fall for this drama.. i watched it in 1 day straight.
282.	Comments by Cherry_Chan [Rating: 10/10] Loved it. It reminds me of myself. At a forun helping someone. XD
283.	Comments by BOGCHI [Rating: 7/10] Didnt like it at first.. but it got better.
284.	Comments by gopro [Rating: 9/10] Ok when I saw the 1st episode I stopped watching this show for about 3 months, I kinda hated this show but I gave it another chance and I was glad I did. Very good show. must watch. Im sure that these things do happen quite often. (watch 1st ep Winter 06, then gave another chance Late Spring 06)
285.	Comments by Nobita-kun [Rating: 5/10] A slap in the face of the real densha otoko. Can a script be more overly-dramatic/exaggerated? The appeal of the densha otoko story is the improbable romance did and can take place in real life. However, this dramatic rendition perverts that idea into a preposterous fairy tale nobody can identify with. Itosh Atsushi's over-acting makes it all the more unbearable. His portrayal of densha will go down in J-drama history as the most puny, spineless, pitiful, sniveling-weasel-like, poor-excuse-for-a-human-being character ever created! The guy acts like he's about to die from a nervous breakdown. His constantly whiny face and apologetic behavior makes me puke. Perhaps his moniker should be changed to "Trainwreck Man" because watching his hysterical crying fits gives one the same mental anguish as witnessing a tragic derailment accident. The last episode was building up toward what could be the first genuinely touching scene of the series until train boy started sobbing and hyperventilating uncontrollably (again). Hermes-san probably accepted his confession out of pity rather than love--after all, who could refuse the entreating of a wretched, fragile creature spewing tears and mucus all over the floor. I only forced myself to finish this drama for the lovely Itoh Misaki as well as occasional glimpses of Maki in schoolgirl uniform, cool ASCII art wiz Oguri Shun, and Darth Miho.

288.	Comments by aoi_dolphine [Rating: 7/10] Entertaining enough for me.
289.	Comments by Sana1x2 [Rating: 8/10] 10/10 till the last episode which was rather boring
290.	Comments by cutesawada [Rating: 5/10] Funny at parts....could not finish tho. Can't believe Makki's in it
291.	Comments by Tiffany [Rating: 9/10] A modern day fairytale. This dorama was one of the most innovative of the year and leaves a deep impression on its viewers!
292.	Comments by catlin_kay [Rating: 8/10] i watched half way~ but its funny lo
293.	Comments by ShinYo [Rating: 9/10] Otaku's story ! recommended to Otaku(s) !
294.	Comments by Battle48 [Rating: 6/10] Nice drama. Quite funny and entertaining. Sometimes there is a little something missing to make it an unforgettable drama though.
295.	Comments by Wynter [Rating: 9/10] This is the funniest drama, and perhaps the most addictive, I have ever seen. A good look into the mindset of a Otaku.
296.	Comments by dragongirl1978 [Rating: 10/10] I really enjoyed this one, it made me CRY! I can't wait to see the movie....kinda hard to get my hands on, ne?
297.	Comments by Shuin [Rating: 9/10] Fun and nice drama to watch at, showing how the relationship of densha otoko and herms really work out in the end with the help of ppl replying in the forum thread =)
298.	Comments by 206 [Rating: 9/10] Ito-san really looks pretty in this one. Is this really based on a true story? Fun story. Can an Otaku win?
299.	Comments by norz [Rating: 9/10] It was good and inspiring, and maybe a little over acting with densha and hermes lol the net chats with the exaggerated expressions were my favurite hilarious
300.	Comments by JRodJiro [Rating: 9/10] I like this show because of Hermes!
301.	Comments by Ushiroyubi [Rating: 9/10] Hysterical!! i loved it.
302.	Comments by Shouryuuken [Rating: 6/10] Like Sapuri, there was originally a lot of hype about Densha Otoko and if anyone needs to find out about the workings of true otaku and hikikomori then I guess this is the best place to start. Although I would say that Itoh Atsushi did a sterling job in his role, I must say that all of his character's mumbling and bumbling really started to piss me off about half-way through. I stuck through it though and finally watched a most predictable ending.
303.	Comments by karin-chan [Rating: 10/10] wors cant expLain... hehe :D
304.	Comments by loveaomori [Rating: 5/10] Ito Misaki is cute. The dorama is well shot. But there is only one unique story here. The back people are just typing on their computers can you call that "acting"? I don't!!!!! And The densha otoko doesn't grow up during the dorama. It may be funny to wach him so shy, unable to talk in hermes presence but after 10 minutes I already wanted to punch him straight in his face and say to him "ii kagen seichou shiro temee!" I know it's otaku and stuff but this dorama can be sum in 10 minutes. Maybe the book or the movie are better.... I hope so....

306.	Comments by Kitsuchi [Rating: 8/10] This series is crazy and funny.. and great at the same time. This j-dorama is good, especially knowing that it's based on a true story. But then all that Denshas crying really annoyed me.. and other small stuff too, but other than that, it is a great dorama. After all, thinking about the meaning of this j-dorama makes you like it anyway.. There are different ways of thinking about this dorama.
307.	Comments by magnifikat [Rating: 10/10] absolutely one of the best shows ever! this is the epitome of heart warming and delightful. i have never had such a whirlwind of emotions from watching a tv show before. i really felt like i was right there with yamada. everyone should watch this!
308.	Comments by Ezalor [Rating: 10/10] Wow! Super funny, super romantic! Just cool! Has an fantastic soundtrack. HINT: Notice the "Densha Deluxe" special! Another great episode!
309.	Comments by Bruno [Rating: 9/10] Mto bom dorama, nada de espetacular como mtos dizem ser, pois possui alguns fatores negativos (clichês, repetição de histórias), mas em suma é mto bom.
310.	Comments by altec [Rating: 10/10] A very comforting/heartwarming drama. Shows that there are more good people in this world. I Heart Misaki-san!
311.	Comments by g_hunter1 [Rating: 8/10] That's one lucky otaku. Couldn't stand the whining and crying sometimes. Thought there was a bit of over-acting too done by person playing Densha Otoko. Liked the old 80s like tunes they had in the soundtrack. As a matter of fact i really like the soundtrack. Especially the track "Tsubaki - Sea of Love."
312.	Comments by JL [Rating: 9/10] Very funny! Can't stop laughing. Best show I've watched in 2005

315.	Comments by phoenix278 [Rating: 10/10] How can you not like it? I mean without thinking of the scenes when Densha is wimpy cry baby- this drama is soo sweet. The pair have such great chemistry. A really funny drama! - and it has Itou Misaki.....:)

318.	Comments by Ageiha [Rating: 8/10] The first drama I have ever watched and I really loved it! Very funny and kind of stupid sometimes, but I saw it as charm for this serie! <3 And considering it was made after a real life story, makes it much more amusing and exciting.
319.	Comments by akane_MYV [Rating: 5/10] At first I thought it would be awesome, after I read the review of the drama, because it is based on a true story. But I was a little bit disappointed, not because the ending...it was a great ending, but more because Densha's attitude, he was a little bit annoying,....He cried all the time...I wouldn't watch it again. But the acting of Densha was great, he is hilarious!!
320.	Comments by nienna [Rating: 10/10] it's good! it's good! it's good! ofmg! it's so darn good! there were a lot of times when it was so touching... i just kept on crying...>< hey! i'm no baby but if u had watched this, u'll definitely agree with me.

322.	Comments by Blood_Berry [Rating: 8/10] I want Densha Otoko's EVA01 model figure! \(O)/ Yamada is kind of annoying...crying most of the time and contorting his face going "dooooushiyoooooo?!!" <_< But nevertheless, it was worth a watch... its actually cute. LOL... 'specially if you appreciate anime, seiyuus and online forums. thumbs up

326.	Comments by Ikuko [Rating: 7/10] Funny, good drama.
327.	Comments by bengkuan83 [Rating: 10/10] A very touching drama...I think I can relate well with densha and how he tries to overcome his otakuness...all for the sake of Hermes...It all boils down to honesty, trust and love which triumphs material wealth, style and coolness... A not-to-be-missed drama and definitely this one enters my Hall of Fame as the best drama in 2005...

329.	Comments by OCster [Rating: 10/10] I watched this drama on the recommendation of a friend. The storyline, despite people not liking it so much, already interested me a lot. I watched the whole series in the span of a day. It was so addictive.. true, the humour and acting was really corny and over the top here and there, but the striking parts of the drama are what help pull it through and make it so enjoyable to watch. The whole idea of the forum was very good and well done. I think Densha was a little overplayed by Atsushi and his constant crying and constipated expressions were a tad irritating and repetitive, but you can't help but love him nonetheless. And Misaki Itou @__@ goodness me, I'm a girl and I've always crushed after the guys, but she was SO beautiful and convincing in this one that I found myself wanting her myself sometimes.. lol. All in all, this is a drama that should not be missed. There IS a reason why this series has been so talked about.
330.	Comments by MAYSEVENTEEN [Rating: ?/10] I heard that Oguri Shun casts in it^^
331.	Comments by chinmi [Rating: 7/10] Great ^^ The first episodes were really funny It's a pity that the last ep was a little slow, and sometimes boring, but i had good times watching this dorama
332.	Comments by Dreamchaser [Rating: 8/10] Just watched the first episode and I think it's a really warm and touching love story with lots of funny moments, too. I like those characters who are not like the others....
333.	Comments by stardope [Rating: 10/10] wakakak,,,,funny dorama,,,,
334.	Comments by swit_kiss56 [Rating: 10/10] like it...love it!!! it is a story where you can think that anything is impossible!!!
335.	Comments by Angry Machines [Rating: 9/10] pretty good. The OST is amazing, I'd love to get it on CD. The cast is pretty good too. the 2Channel memebers are totally awesome, but sometime it gets exagrated. Densha's low and squeaky voice is what makes hate this show at the same time! I just can't stand listening to him bitchin' LOL
336.	Comments by mylittleuchiha [Rating: 10/10] like the soundtrack
337.	Comments by KawaiiCat [Rating: 8/10] great story, funny and charming; but abit slow
338.	Comments by PeanutButter_Cup [Rating: 9/10] I loved the story, it was really cute. The characters are funny and I loved when they were in the forum
339.	Comments by kingsquall [Rating: 7/10] Pertamanya gw pikir ni film cemen banget. tapi setelah melewati episode tertentu ternyata seru juga. alur ceritanya unik, gak seperti film-film standar. tapi tetep menyimpan pesan yang cukup dalem... hehehe... kayaknya terinspirasi dari beau & the bst.. all i can say is you have a creative idea :)
340.	Comments by uchi23 [Rating: 9/10] one of the first dramas i ever saw.. has a unique plot and ofcourse one of the best actresses itoh misaki.. very moving and at the same time a lot of comical momments.. kitaaa!!!
341.	Comments by uhno [Rating: 9/10] One of my favs. Misaki ruled this drama!
342.	Comments by RumoZamonien [Rating: 5/10] Cheesy, but nice vocabulary.
343.	Comments by mistymoonlight [Rating: ?/10] First one I saw. It was so funny, but kept me hoping for a good ending.
344.	Comments by Puszedli [Rating: ?/10] want to see
345.	Comments by Jhvx [Rating: 9/10] Worthwatching, great cast and also very hilarious dorama with otakus!!! Plus, they show Akihabara nearly in every episode!!!
346.	Comments by deathangels [Rating: 7/10] if u Ito Misaki fans, its a must watching drama. the story is good, but i just dun like this typisch man, who just can cry out loud to many ppl. in my opinion, he is not deserved this beautiful lady. but in live anything can happened, its quite recomended drama.
347.	Comments by spritzi [Rating: 9/10] touching
348.	Comments by Danji [Rating: 8/10] Densha is a fantastic show with decent acting, good plot, believable characters (for the most part), and a semi-realistic setting. The primary character is a bit of a crybaby which detracted from the show a bit for me, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
349.	Comments by hdht [Rating: 10/10] This is the best drama I have ever seen ^^ XD XD XD It's funny and romantic I love all the acts of this serie,. . . and of-course I love my HERMES-tan very much :") Misaki looks so beautiful and gentle in this serie (^___^) KITA━━━━(゜∀゜)━━━━KITA KITA━━━━(゜∀゜)━━━━KITA KITA━━━━(゜∀゜)━━━━KITA

351.	Comments by senkuurondo123 [Rating: 10/10] Densha Otoko was an excellent drama...even though densha was always nervous and crying his ass off alot, I really enjoyed it...its very inspiring and funny...also itoh misaki and sato eriko r hot!!!...and mokomichi hayami did really good in this drama and i wished he had a bigger part..but other than that the story was really good
352.	Comments by fatalchaoz [Rating: 10/10] I just love that guy although he looks awful. This drama is funny and FUNNY!
353.	Comments by k4g0me [Rating: 5/10] eh, reviews threw me off....boring to me.
354.	Comments by Okojo [Rating: 5/10] So so...
355.	Comments by afterglowmegami [Rating: 9/10] I LOVE THIS DRAMA! It's very unconventional yet it didn't failed my expectations to be a beautiful drama.
356.	Comments by xerith [Rating: 7/10] Has some really funny moments but can be too draggy during his "internet consultation sessions" where they keep repeating the same things. Misaki's character was rather simple, but who can watch this series and not love "Hermes-san"?
357.	Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 9/10] Hilarious! Easily the best dorama of 2005, Miho Shiraishi stole the show!
358.	Comments by ケヴィン [Rating: 10/10] Must see ! Original and very hillarious plot ! Very addictive.
359.	Comments by jia_hui [Rating: 8/10] Funny, but... I don't know, something's wrong... I can't explain... Keisuke is kakkoi =)
360.	Comments by pandora [Rating: 9/10] Great and funny but the crying scenes are cringe worthy
361.	Comments by NuOy [Rating: 8/10] ok, it's funny.
362.	Comments by masaki-chan [Rating: 9/10] It was really funny, but also stupid. I love romantic stories, but it was... hmmm... strange:) I like it because it made me sad sometimes and sometimes happy. But that guy, who played Densha... Why couldn't he be a little more handsome... God...
363.	Comments by zileas [Rating: 7/10] Quite original, and also based on a true story. It really has its moments, and "kiiiiita!" will always be remembered. The constant crying by the main character grows annoying though. As a comedy it serves well, but as a drama it wasn't particularly amazing. Overall enjoyable and recommendable.

369.	Comments by Archaenon [Rating: 10/10] Loved it.
370.	Comments by himekoayumi [Rating: 10/10] es genial!!
371.	Comments by Jellybean66 [Rating: 10/10] Loved this one! Dorama was brilliant! I also saw the movie version and I liked it but it wasn't as good as the drama. Drama 10/10...Movie 8/10!
372.	Comments by Ru-ku [Rating: 7/10] It's too blown up with feelings, but all in all worth to see. When I saw densha acting I always thought, that no woman on earth would like to be with him...
373.	Comments by deina-kun [Rating: ?/10] Haven't started
374.	Comments by zhirong [Rating: 8/10] Not a bad drama. Got both funny and touching moments. The pace is kinda slow for a Japanese drama but it is still good. Shiraishi Miho did a good job. I liked her acting especially when she is angry...
375.	Comments by Wesu [Rating: 6/10] Itoh Misaki is so damn hot, but the main character is SUCH A LOSER! He doesn't deserve such a cool chick, man what a waste; always whining and crying...
376.	Comments by waddy [Rating: 7/10] a very lucky guy..i wish i were him. :)
377.	Comments by dirtypink [Rating: 9/10] this is a really good show! different from love stories you usually see.i love all the supporting actors and actresses,they really made the show interesting! especially sakurai,misuzu,oikawa,OgUri shun! LOLL.love it!hilarious too

386.	Comments by mizz_evy [Rating: 10/10] It was so surprising and it was so cute and funny=]
387.	Comments by asugar2 [Rating: 10/10] The geek made me cry!
388.	Comments by hanipazui [Rating: 9/10] i was suprised in positive way...
389.	Comments by opospa [Rating: 8/10] Its quite boring to see those bloggers chatting among themselves.... But overall, the storyline is great!!
390.	Comments by sinned12 [Rating: 9/10] One of my favorites. It's really a great drama for the family to watch. The lead actor was a little annoying with his stuttering and crying. Nobody cries that much, I understand the nervousness part but the crying is a little too much.
391.	Comments by Kugashira [Rating: 9/10] My first Misaki drama. Despite the cheese, this was a lot of fun. I loved Miho Shiraishi's character.
392.	Comments by psychomann [Rating: 8/10] The hero is lowest at the beginning and he is lower at the end. If you have geek in your friend : you must watch it ! (Seem to be based on a true story) ~ Le hero est lamentable : la sous merde radioactive de base et a la fin c'est juste une merde. Si vous avez des potes geek : vous devez voir cette serie. (semble etre base sur une histoire vrai).
393.	Comments by japochoboi [Rating: 5/10] had some hot chicks in it but the main character pissed me off to no end. all he does for the whole drama is complain to others. he needed to man up and just do what needed to be done. he needed to be slapped.
394.	Comments by Akyoku [Rating: ?/10] not yet watched ~horikita maki~
395.	Comments by overdose [Rating: 10/10] the best drama of all time Hermesssssssssss.....i do love you.
396.	Comments by marspeach [Rating: 5/10] Am I the only one in the world who doesn't really like this show? Repetitive, one-dimensional characters, and Densha's constant whimpering annoyed me.
397.	Comments by doriangrey64 [Rating: 9/10] i enjoyed this drama, however the specials weren't very good.
398.	Comments by pinkokoro [Rating: 5/10] COMPLETE. woh! overrated! one of the most popular drama, i read everywhere about it. but really. It's boring. there's only an episode that I like for making me laugh, other than that this is ermmm... bad? maybe it's popular because of its story about otaku loving a beautiful girl, and people who watched this are mainly guys who always in front of their comp and this drama give them chance to dream such encounter? I d k. this is really not my type of drama. sigh. after hearing so much of good thing about it.
399.	Comments by Mega-L [Rating: 6/10] got really annoying and cliche towards the end, story dragged, and got tired of seeing the main character blubber all the time, stopped watching it
400.	Comments by truetrueno86 [Rating: 10/10] benoist!
401.	Comments by kireiyuhi [Rating: 9/10] This kind of drama is very rare for obvious reasons but was executed extremely well. Very impressive
402.	Comments by xayaxceresx [Rating: 7/10] SO FUNNY! Densha Otoko reminds me of myself a bit. I love the idea of how he connects with the cyber world and his cyber friends helps him out.
403.	Comments by aimare [Rating: 8/10] I watched it in dubbed version. Many say the original version is much better.
404.	Comments by akibakenji [Rating: 10/10] This drama wins...such memorable characters and a hilarious, yet touching plot. A drama that any fan of anime/video games should watch. The fact that it was inspired by a true story made it that much more meaningful. A bit cheesy at times, yes, but still quite entertaining nonetheless. This and 1 Liter of Tears are probably my favorite J-drama's of all time. Ito Misaki was great and all as Hermes, but Shiraishi Miho as Jinkama was definitely my favorite character in this one.

410.	Comments by Rokugatsu Ken [Rating: 10/10] T,T the heroes always cry. weak but I love it
411.	Comments by JackClark [Rating: 10/10] I just loved this comedy.
412.	Comments by hbdj90 [Rating: 7/10] This Drama is Good!
413.	Comments by A_Sad_Song [Rating: 10/10] The story itself is so entertaining, but just how the actors portrayed the drama between the characters was incredible. I pretty much enjoyed it and loved it. Maybe because I can connect so well to Densha. That's just my very own point of view. And Ito Misaki definitely plays the perfect "Hermes".
414.	Comments by Dabizu kun [Rating: 9/10] Un dorama Muy bueno y lleno de emociòn.
415.	Comments by room304 [Rating: 5/10] interesting plot but a little bit to slow paced in the middle part for my liking ... hated the ending as most of the times
416.	Comments by jong hyun [Rating: 8/10] Very cute! I liked the way they handled the BBS written parts. Characters are all really good, too. I saw the movie later, and I'm not sure which one I liked better. The drama really extends the story, but not necessarily in a dragging way.
417.	Comments by EstherM [Rating: 8/10] The opener is really cool and the story is original - a bit streched for a drama and there is no chemistry whatsoever between the beauty and the otaku. 8 points for being unique and funny at most times.
418.	Comments by Vinny_Duvet [Rating: 9/10] досмотрел до конца
419.	Comments by giantrock4100edu [Rating: 8/10] Densha Otoko or Densha Otaku???rsrs
420.	Comments by jed_ka [Rating: 8/10] The story of what could turn to the traditional relationship between Japanese Otaku and ordinary people, there is plenty to laugh and a lot of courage! I have read the series, the Special, and the movie seen: men must trust themselves before man makes new things!
421.	Comments by kijoken [Rating: ?/10] great drama !
422.	Comments by n38iz87 [Rating: 9/10] The actress is cute !!!
423.	Comments by venuskarura [Rating: 9/10] One of the best drama i've seen so far. Although there are several storyline that seems a little too dramatic and cliche, but I really enjoy this drama. I like this even more than the movie.
424.	Comments by harusamesarada [Rating: 7/10] Quite good and refreshing. Over acted.
425.	Comments by sw33t_laydee [Rating: 10/10] This drama was great. I enjoyed every episode...it was kinda slow at first but like the characters in the drama, I got into it and hoped for the best for Densha. It was fun watching and this is a drama for the shy and the timid. It's inspiring!
426.	Comments by kimjj33 [Rating: 10/10] Even a lowest loser can get a hot woman. This drama brings out the strength in a loser but he couldn't have done it without his friends.
427.	Comments by TylerDurden2604 [Rating: 10/10] very funny and very sweet. great story. couldnｴt stop watching and i will definitely watch it again.
428.	Comments by Jeanxi [Rating: 2/10] Cheesy and weird. I guess it's just too hard for me to relate ^^\|\|\|
429.	Comments by animefreak101 [Rating: 9/10] i really liked it!!! i loved seeing how he changed because it gives people hope!!!! the theme was REALLY nice and i loved seeing how the people always supported him!!! it really touched me
430.	Comments by Cerebus [Rating: 7/10] OK, although Ito Atsushi is a total gimp, and Ito Misaki a total wimp, and at no time do they feel like a couple. The best thing in this is Shiraishi Miho as the frightening, sex craved temp. The variety of characters on the message board work really well. The Specials aren't. The final one is an embarrassment.
431.	Comments by chokakoi [Rating: 9/10] I almost thought I was one of those forum-ers, I wanted to join them and cheer on for densha otoko! interesting show! cant believe it was something real!
432.	Comments by pandorina [Rating: 7/10] I donno yet... I love the movie I'll have to get deeper into the series to really make a decent comment
433.	Comments by chibichan [Rating: 5/10] dropped after ep 8, quite boring for me
434.	Comments by outlaws0025 [Rating: 8/10] this was the first dorama i ever watched! It's really nice and touching
435.	Comments by 菜奈子 [Rating: 2/10] UGh. I tried and tried to finish watching this drama. I think I even forced myself to watch up to the last episode, due to its rave reviews. It's just not my cup of tea. The main character, although funny, over reacted to the point that it exceeded funny and became plain old stupid. Maybe it's just not for my taste.
436.	Comments by Berserkgalaxy [Rating: 1/10] Boring!!!!!
437.	Comments by hitomi #1 [Rating: 8/10] Quite good, cover you see is for the movie not the TV drama. There are no negatives for it, I'm a tough reviewer, will highly recommend this, great cast, script, etc. Misaki Ito.....whew.
438.	Comments by Kuro570 [Rating: 4/10] I hated this one, I can't believe ppl think this is good. I hate the main character and the way he acts, its just a major turn off for me.
439.	Comments by tama_naj [Rating: 8/10] a sweet love by an otaku!
440.	Comments by T417dy [Rating: 10/10] Really touched and romantic movie ^_^ Densha Otoko...otsu
441.	Comments by Gloves [Rating: 6/10] I had a long break with this drama so I can't say if it affected my opinion but... Anyway I stopped in the middle of the 9th episode because of the overall irritation level. I couldn't decide which one of the characters was the most spineless idiot and the show just seemed to get more and more ridiculous and repeating towards the end. I still really enjoyed the first episodes (loved the setting scenarios) so this drama isn't completely rotten.
442.	Comments by toyotaku [Rating: 8/10] I laughed. I cried. I howled. It really made me appreciate my internet friends.
443.	Comments by jPs34n [Rating: 10/10] Best drama i have seen yet. Ito Atsushi's acting was fantastic, this guy made akihabara famous!!! The drama was very hilarious with all the anime otakus in it.
444.	Comments by riha [Rating: 7/10] Full of comedy! I laugh, laugh and laugh!
445.	Comments by Amber [Rating: 10/10] I was very, very touched, sugoi!!!
446.	Comments by Sorata [Rating: 10/10] One of my favorite doramas, i loved the movie but the dorama is much better, Yamada Takayuki is my favorite actor but he just isn´t a good otaku, after he "took care of himself" he looked cool while Itoh Atsushi even after the transformation he still looks dorky and uncool and Itoh Misaki is just...deslumbrant. This dorama made laugh very hard and the drama part is very well played, it really made me care about the characters and all the guys in the forum are funny as hell. The 2006 special Deluxe was a failed attempt of squeezing more money from this franchise, it makes no sense what so ever, it´s like all growing Densha had during the dorama lead to nowhere. I think mos people would be happy of not watching the Deluxe.
447.	Comments by MutinousWench37 [Rating: 9/10] Loved it! Kind of gross, but an overall warm-hearted storyline. Kitaaa!
448.	Comments by delaciel [Rating: 7/10] It's a nice dorama, but, didn't really go crazy with the main actor.
449.	Comments by Swedish_Japan_Lover [Rating: 10/10] Can't help loving it. At first it feels kinda boring and ridiculous, but damn! It's so cute you have to watch it! And also, this is japanese magic, when you can make forum-relationship so touching ;_;
450.	Comments by dbesthair23 [Rating: 10/10] Definitely a 10 A++ Seen this like 4-5 times now with different people. Highly suggest this, very moving and inspiring drama!
451.	Comments by Henriquette [Rating: 8/10] it was good in gen, but he kinda got annoying haha
452.	Comments by satura [Rating: 6/10] Stupid, annoing and boring most of the time.
453.	Comments by kike [Rating: 10/10] that's my favourite drama . ts great
454.	Comments by nadrika [Rating: 9/10] Hilarious. Touching. Surprisingly it brought tears to my eyes. Usually this doesn't happen when i watch dramas on tv. I watched this on 8tv. Because when you watch on tv, there's advertisements in between which interrupts the mood. Thumbs up!!! Excellent OST as well... I'm now experiencing what Densha Otoko is experiencing, in the sense of having conversation with online friends that i have NEVER met but feel that i've known them for a LONG time and would understand where I'm coming from. :) Only thing is there's the dreaded TIME DIFFERENCE which never fail to make my head spin. But I'm thankful nevertherless.
455.	Comments by aramia [Rating: 10/10] THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DRAMAS I HAVE EVER WATCHED! It is hilarious yet touching at times. Although it doesnt seem realistic, it is nonetheless entertaining and moving all the same. A fairytale romance for the unlikely hero. The casting is perfect. There is no one more perfect to act in this role but itoh atsushi. I love it when he goes to the rooftop at akihabara.
456.	Comments by nickylynn [Rating: 6/10] Lead actor was so annoying. Other than that the story was ok.
457.	Comments by Bbbut [Rating: 2/10] bad - stopped after 2 episodes - after that I gave the movie a try (bad as well) - then I red the translated original chat messages and they are great. Both drama and movie do not capture the beauty of the story at all.
458.	Comments by aionori [Rating: 10/10] This DoRAMA is very sugoi! Densha is wonderful Otaku. Great comic/romance/drama series...

463.	Comments by ABINTRA [Rating: 7/10] Good drama. Personally I thought the real life parts were well done, whereas the online parts were too over-the-top and neither very moving nor very amusing. Overall, though, it's worth watching.

2.	chinapin0 i thought this drama was a bit annoying
3.	netbreaker
4.	hiroshi Rating: 10/10. An absolutely terrific series and one of the best romantic comedies of all time. A classic for sure. Atsushi Itoh did an absolutely great and totally convincing job at being Densha. Kudos also to Miho Shiraishi as Jinkama-san. She rocks!

13.	vega12 I really enjoyed watching this drama! It was full of lots of comedy and great relationships between all the characters. Complementing the great central story of Densha and Hermes, the comradery of the posters on the A-ch board was also wonderful to watch.
14.	Qky Drama of the year!!! It brings a fresh idea of love story that is very interesting, hillarious but also endearing.
15.	MonsterZero-65 Best drama in a long time. They must have had a whole team of Otaku working on this to get the culture down so well. I really enjoyed Itoh Misaki, Itoh Atsushi, and Shiraishi Miho was too funny. Great acting, story, music, everything really. a perfect 10!
16.	bran Pretty fun drama, but I maintain Misaki Ito lacks acting skills.
17.	CtrlV

69.	chrisje Unique & great finishing
70.	VanillaNyx funny
71.	staybymyside It was cute. Memorable characters. And touching dialogue.
72.	One
73.	krazekarin i started watching this because of oguri shun, even though there werent much scenes with him in it, i loved it; but it was a really touching drama it was funny at parts but it was so sad even though it had a happy ending
74.	jor-el The entire story was so wonderful. It had humor and romance. The actor playing densha was very good but the person who took my breath away was Itoh Misaki. She is simply the most beautiful woman I've seen. The relationship between the two of them was what made it so touching and sweet
75.	erick_himura This dorama is actually make me Sick of MySelf... I don't know but i'm a like Yamada-san... a otaku, coward from girls. It's like reflaction for me..... The story begin from a man finding a princess.... (i start crying..... ;-(
76.	Prof Plum Sometimes oversentimental. Often unrealistic. Neverless an engaging and rewarding feel-good drama with likeable characters and enjoyable plot.
77.	domng This is a true rare gem. Who would have expected to watch this kind of story in a drama and not in an anime? Get's my vote for originality in the story. : D
78.	Orion kitaaaaaaaaaaa

81.	captain_planet way funny and tearjerking!!! i cried on almost all eps!!!
82.	eosforo God.. Ive never laughed while watching a drama! I mean... its really unique. And the power of body concept acting and all... that dude is good!!!!
83.	jamesuh Awesome drama. Very good acting, and the casting is perfect.
84.	shanghai_honey I loved watching Densha Otoko! The story is so funny and touching at the same time. Itoh Misaki is perfect as Hermes, so soft and dreamy looking, and Densha acted very well as a inept but lovable Otaku. The were times I wanted to sock him for all his nervous stuttering and there were times I wanted to stand up and cheer him on! All his internet buddies were very entertaining too, Densha is a lucky bastard. Kittaaaaa!!!!!
85.	Grim Eyes Although Densha's character may be annoying at times, the story was still presented well.
86.	anonymousadam
87.	UtadaFan I thought this was THE best/funniest series I have ever seen until 1 Litre came along....sorry densha, 1 Litre will have to be my No'1 choice

105.	blakmetalik
106.	xiong_here Its some painfully corny yet so addicting to watch. Its really a simple story and you wonder why NOBODY did it before! This show has to been seen and appreciated for its story and the little things us OTAKUs notice throughout the show that it pulls.
107.	rafalegh My first, very good
108.	GreenRubberPlant Lots of fun. Was so over the top that I couldn't help but love it.
109.	bcgurl It's funny and quite draggy and irritating but I guess that's how the show goes. And some parts are also touching and aad. But overall, hmm.. I guess it's worth a vote.
110.	zi-chan Kita!!
111.	illuminati Hilarious
112.	IntRoVertIsh
113.	darc_blade first exposure to miho shiraishi and the itoh misaki... definetely the cutest misaki performance out of all she's done... not to mention the itoh is perfect as an otaku.

118.	Ezalor My favorite Dorama - he "rescued" me from becoming an Anime Otaku, now i like Doramas better. XDD

123.	alcetic Best love comedy ever...I can't get over it...you have to watch this. Itoh misaki is stunningly beautifulll x_x!
124.	ivy99 the best dorama ever! 10 bajillion times better than the movie. they really did an excellent job in casting the principles and supporting actors. great music throughout, heart warming story, i can't help but smile thinking about it. i also recommend the bonus densha finale / prequel movie, wonderful to watch!

151.	187sakurai very creative characters. This is one of the few dramas worth watching again because of the great humor and overall craziness of the characters.
152.	Chrn0 pure classic
153.	fallenknife Like many others, I was hesitant to watch this drama at first as the two main characters doesn't look like they could pull off the romantic-comedy part and this may just turn out to be a corny and lame plot of a underdog, loser guy winning the heart of a beautful girl. Instead, the drama impresses me with its amazing casts and how the director bring to life the forum chat.
154.	Poncky Great dorama!
155.	Cherry_Chan
156.	Fernando This is a pretty funny drama. I just loved that beatinglady "Darth Jinkama" played by Shiraishi Miho.

239.	inkfish021 Densha Otoko [series] is a highly entertaining and incredibly moving romantic comedy drama with a plethora of interesting, lovable characters. Based on a true story, the story is simple but brilliant tale of love and hope, that no matter who you are or what situation you are in, anyone can make a miracle. :) I STRONGLY RECCOMMEND EVERYONE TRY IT.
240.	desert-raven Fun series, I liked the interaction with all the characters.
