Teruko, a third year university student, comes across as a forthright and sunny girl but is in truth a rather timid person. She's also the sort who easily gets carried away and does things impetuously only to regret her actions later. Influenced by her older brother who has taken to wandering the world, Teruko too hopes to make her own journey one day but she lacks the courage, content to live the life of a normal university student ... However, she's also plagued with the insecurity of having done nothing she can be proud of in her lifetime, and mustering all her courage embarks on a solo trip to India.

Now I want to watch it. I loved all of the above.

So far no one picked up the project according to here. I doubt someone will do it. The guys are too old. :banghead:

Yup.

They literally bust a vessel no matter how nicely and/or pathetically you ask.

Testy bunch.

You can't request subs and you can't complain when 2 or 3 groups are subbing the same drama in the same language. :shakehead:

the latter point you made is true and also very lame....it's like there are so very few subbers out there....duplicative efforts are a waste of time and resources...

Sounds like you're talking about Nodame... It is pretty dumb of those fansubbers.

But I'm off topic. :sweat:

... or Nobuta wo produce. Every group subbed it. :rolleyes: For the fall season, a few drama aren't going to be subs, but Yukan Club featuring Jin, another Kat-tun guy and some other johnny, will be subbed by 2 groups. Both hard. :shakehead:

That's why I'm not holding my breath. I'll get it anyway and hope someday I'll be fluent enough to watch it. :puppydog:
