But why TBS stopped crunchyroll from streaming it?

Maou airing rights is owned by TBS. Its illegal to stream copyrighted videos. TBS might lose potential viewers or DVD buyers because of the streams.

I see..
I like the song theme....
Do you buy Maou Dvd?

The original DVD boxset (without subs) cost around 24000yen, about 200USD.
I bought the soundtrack cd & "truth" single instead.

He got the loveliest hands with slender fingers and sexy veins :naughty:. Even in the drama, the camera took advantage of his very beautiful hands. Can't deny he got a girly face but I like how boyish and manly he can become even with a face as pretty as that :hehe:

Completely missed the live :banghead:
Perfect timing for TVU to stop the Japanese service. I'm hoping my youtube source will upload it as fast as she can. :fingerscrossed:

Read in Maou final message / blog entry in LJ comm.. Maou getting excited to watch the drama starring his "beloved" next :hehe:
Ohmiya love never dimmed :beaten:

meoinkie2.. have you watched it yet or are you waiting for the subs?
anybody else who have watched it?
The ending was not as satisfying as I've anticipated unfortunately but the acting.. OH.MY.GOD.THE ACTING. True talents and it from the jyanis. Ohno was just mesmerizing and Toma was heartbreaking. :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:

Seriously this show (or all Japanese dramas in general) just have to annoy us with the constant running or walking long distance
Spoiler — click to revealwhile bleeding *slapshead*
to reach a very important destination.

If only they would opt for a different ending from the fabulous original (which was perfect and non can beat that even if they tried) I would have given this drama a 9/10 instead of an 8/10. Now i just need a Maou jdorama page to fill in my ratings.

List of wonderful stuffs in this episode:
Spoiler — click to reveal
-I'm very satisfied with how they did with Yamano (evil bastard), Kasai, Noriyoshi and the Serizawa Sr.
-The scene of silent Tomoo being hugged by Shiori... OHNO FRICKIN AWESOME ACTING WITHOUT ANY DIALOGUES *MY HEART*.. and the hands *squee a little*
-Naoto's pain *cries*
-The Final Confrontation... *CRY FOREVAH*


ok.. i can move on with Ryusei no Kizuna now :hehe:

Akusub has just released the softsub for the final episode!
14 Sep 2008, 01:52 #234
I finished watching Maou with the softsubs. I also agree that the ending is a bit off. I don't understand the scene at the beach with the inspector, about showing 'something'. I know that he probably retired after the case though. The altar should be to worship both of them right? But why does it have to end abruptly with Shiori showing her powers again? That very last part don't make sense. I can understand if Jdorama ratings will drop a little because of the ending.

Nevertheless, a very touching last episode with stellar acting from Ohno and Toma. Used both my wet sleeves and tissues for tears. Haha

If I remembered it correctly, there are signs regarding Maou's DVD Box, and at the bottom of the screen it says "The revenge play will once again open its curtain.." and then "complete with extras" and the last two signs said "The memory that lies inside the harmonica..." "You will witness the shocking truth"

So I'm guessing what Shiori saw in the harmonica will be included in the extras in the DVD box (talk about marketing ploy) or maybe something like that.

What the police said at the beach,
Spoiler — click to reveal i think he meant that he wanted to show the two the lovely beach. But Shiori, seeing the two black butterflies, thought in her heart, "They are looking at it", that's why she smiled. Well, at least that's what I think what the scene tried to convey.

yup.
Spoiler — click to reveali think both are to caught up with their own personal hell that they didn't realize the beauty surround them worth living for. the beach scene was also for Shiori sake, showing she's still remains true. I guess she represents hope that lives.


thanks for the DVD box info kirinlemon-san :woot:
damn.. that expensive dvd :sweat:

Hi,
I finished watching Maou yesterday, and somehow I still kept thinking about it. Thats why I don't like to watch sad dramas and even Nino's movie. Hai, I just don't like the ending and how many lives got sacrificed in the end. Why did 6 people died in the last episode? Felt really sad after watching how Naoto and Naruse suffered through the years. It proves good acting, but still... haix

yatta!! found some dload links for the OST of Maou.. :woot: :dancing:

marsqurine.. spoiler box please. there are still people who haven't watch this.


It sticking in my head. That confrontation scene.
Spoiler — click to revealNaruse & Naoto was so perfectly broken and finally at peace.

Another round of applause to Ohno Satoshi and Ikuta Toma :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:
No one can deny that you guys are great actors with that scene.

For those who refuses to watch this drama for whatever reasons, its your lost :twisted:
