Ahh, a mid-life crisis... Maybe that's why he married Eren....?

glad it will be sub'd, soon....:applaud:

Just watched episode 2 - not quite disappointing, but not exactly a revelation either. That, unfortunately, is what watching Nodame Cantabile too many times does to you - raising your expectations.

At this point in time Ohtake is still getting more air-time than Juri-sama - paying respects to a dai senpai, or has the producer/scrip-writer let their heads.

The acting, though, is good from just about everyone. If Juri-sama gets through this drama in one piece her acting is going to benefit from the experience.

And how.

Nodame is one really tough act to follow... And I don't think this drama gives Juri-chan enough latitude to cut loose, I'm afraid.

When I watched some of Episode 1, I kept seeing glimpses of Nodame... Or at least that's what I thought. :sweat:

That's because Ueno-san is partialy a Nodame.
I've watched yesterday first 20min. TokyoFriendPark2 and you could see/hear some "hazukashiii" and "shumimasheeen" there :bow:

PS: screencaps on the way...

It is... Juri-chan is hyper. :beaten:

:banghead: I had high expectations because of Oda Yuji.1st ep. is disappointing - Oda doesn't fit in. I think Tsutsumi Shinichi looks more 40 and funnier than Oda-san.

Ahh, that would've been an interesting choice. :victory:

Hmm, now that I think about it, Tsutsumi would have fit in much more in here!

Episode 3 should be up at D-Addicts soon, ne? ;)

EDIT: I was right... Downloading now. :victory:

I think they are promoting the 'Hug Hug' CD-single. I'm expecting delivery of that, with some other stuff, in late May. :woot:

That's what I figured... :)

Juri-chan is so cherubic. :mrgreen:

Synopsis of Ep4 from the official website:

Spoiler — click to reveal

Rie says she came to Japan because Hirose was having an extramarital affair. When Eren learns of this, she flies to France to meet her father in her bid to reconcile her parents. "It'll just be the two of us tonight," Rie says. Keita and Rie end up hanging around the house.

In a reversal of love, Saeko treats Keita coldly and makes him distribute flyers promoting the family restaurant's lunches in front of the train station. Eren returns to Japan with her father. Hirose frantically defends himself by saying that the person Rie thought he was having an affair with was just a sommelier with whom he had business connections.

I was thinking more like "adorable." ;)
