This should be interesting....as luck has it, I just watched the second to last episode of Last Christmas, which stars Oda Yuji...he's a good actor...I look forward to seeing him work with Juri!!

this should be rather good.

Oda Yuji for sure will put up a great performance.

I don't think comedy is a problem for Ueno Juri :mrgreen:


I'm just hoping Iijima Naoko doesn't have a small part :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed:

More of a domestic comedy... It might be surprising/disappointing to some, seeing that Nodame was kooky and over-the-top at times.

all because it was made over the top in anime.. really hilarious. i doubt there will be another 'nodame'-ish drama in the near future... hmmmf.

Yeah. I think that's 'cos it's part of a trailer for a variety show that Oda Yuji and Ueno Juri appeared in to promote the drama.

From WM Penn in Yomiuri: I'm eager to see whether Jodan Janai (TBS, Sundays, 9 p.m. starting April 15) will be a triumphant comeback for Yuji Oda, who has not starred in a small-screen series in four years. Oda has been criticized in the vernacular press where it has been suggested it is hard for other actors to work with him because of his perfectionism. But if it's one thing we need more of on Japanese TV, it is perfectionists truly dedicated to their craft.
