Roughly Episode 7... the episode when they talk about Takeshi's childhood, how he was a pitcher, and they flashback to his high school days. She plays the grown up version of the girl from high school, who has a newborn child. She only has a few lines.

No, not dame. You can definitely ask, but I didn't want the thread to head in the Majo direction. I know I'm guilty at times, but I base my responses from the latest post. So if I see "Majo no Jouken", I will likely say something about it and not the actual topic of "Golden Bowl".

Ah okay. I've been to the Philippines many times so I am familiar with the local channels: ABS-CBN 2, GMA 7... It's surprising they are showing Japanese dramas there. I say it's about time.

I am currently downloading Golden Bowl after reading all the comments. Looking forward to it.

My Review: 8... no, 9/10

Although there is a lot of plot action right in the first episode, I found Golden Bowl really hard to get into. It wasn�ft until the third episode where things started to pick up for me, and finally by episode five I was an eager watcher.

The whole �gbowling�h concept is really abstract. I like how the drama revolves around the characters that hang out at this bowling alley, but really the sport of bowling is just an excuse to play with the characters. The bowling alley could easily be replaced by a bar, or a park, or another sport, etc. Its link to the overall plot is weak and serves only as a location.

The plot revolving around the characters, however, is very interesting and mysterious. You�fre never quite given the whole picture for each character, and therefore you need to watch carefully in order to collect all the pieces. I like that about this drama, and it helped me look over the uselessness of the bowling element.

The love story is one the best I�fve seen. It was slow in coming but very developed in its slowness. Hitomi and Takeshi were very convincing and I stopped watching the �gactors�h and actually believed the characters to be real. The casting for the supporting cast was well done and I was impressed with how naturally they all worked together.
