Thanks for the info, but I'm not a big fan of viikii. :sweat:

Yeah, just noticed that thread. I'll wait until a few subs are released, just in case. :beaten:

This is a quality drama. Feels like Ueto Aya has matured a lot, she is really good in this, I particularly like how she brought out some of the subtleties of Risa. A little bit slow, and while it doesn't evoke strong feelings from me, almost everything from characters' relationships/dynamics to plot developments felt right. I don't like having a villain for plot purpose only though, which seems like what Risa's brother is.

I agree that apart from Goro's character, nothing feels forced. I wish Yutaka would show more emotion but I guess that's just his character and perhaps when he finally does break down and express his true feelings, the payoff for that will be that much bigger.

What I don't get is why did Minako have to end the engagement? Is it such a stigma to have an ailing family member that her parents would make her break it off? And Kengo took it so well and calmly!

I love all the Kengo-Risa scenes. You just know there'll be so much unspoken angsty lovey dovey looks coming up between them. :hehe:

Aaaargghhh!! I cannot help it anymore!! I have to be a fangirl somewhere!

Just finished watching ep. 7 Raw. OMG OMG OMG. He totally loves her! The way he walks home so slowly after spending all night looking for her and then seeing her at his own doorstep. Of course he'd get back on the bike to get to her quickly, and then he totally tried to play it cool by being so calm. And then his face! When she walks away! He's like "She's walking away from my life, I have to do something!" And then he runs! He runs to her! Aaaaarrrghhhh!!! Or what is it the Japanese say? Kyaaaa??

They spent the night together! In typical J-Dorama fashion of course, but still!! *fans myself* And that look they shared as she's being wheeled in to surgery!! Ohhhhh help me.

This episode was all kinds of awesome. And I don't even understand what they are saying, but I totally get the message. Love love love love this series!

:woot: :victory:

I'm watching it too!!!! I wasn't keen at the beginning because Ueto Aya's acting isn't my liking, but since Zettai Reido she's improved (or more to my liking :p)

I've been watching with the Japanese subs and using Denshi Jisho if I want to know more what they talking about, as for the rest of the normal conversation I can follow ok. I love the chemistry between Kengo and Risa, I don't mind the slow pace at all! totally loving Ryusei of Kobukuro!

I just watched ep 7 and it was like a punch to Risa's brother's face when he said "Imouto kurushimetai hashinai" [I don't want to make my sister suffer] I was like YES! :usuck:

Minato has suddenly realised she was wrong and want to comeback to Kengo is really weird, it just seems they want to make the story interesting :sweat:

But next week!!! NEXT WEEK!!!! finally Kengo shows some affection to Risa.. :woot:

I want to know what Risa saying when she's showing her tummy to Kengo.. hm... :headscratch:

Finally! Someone to share my squeals! :dancing:

I too want to know what she said when she showed him her tummy. She looked like she was about to cry. And how did they come to the decision that it was ok for her to sleep in his bed?

Don't you just love the slow development of their relationship? I think he knows Risa is the only person he can be honest and open with. He tells her everything, even the fact that he was scared when he talked to Ryota. I love how they showed in the beginning Kengo is a person who is always reserved and keeps his emotion in check. And then to see him slowly open up and be so honest and expressive with Risa is wonderful. It's also wonderful to see Risa fall in love with him. The look on her face "This is a good man, I want to take away his pain" is always there whenever she looks at him.

It's so good I don't want it to end!!!

hahahhaa.. I know ur feeling. I was like that too when I was obsessed with something and no one can share my obsession :pout:

Spoiler — click to reveal

I don't think they sleep together, I don't get that impression anyway. hehehehee.. i think we'll have to wait until the proper subs release. but Ican't wait for next episode :p

Thx for starting up Nagareboshi threads... :woot: i'm a fan of Ueto Aya and will definitely watch this but gotta wait till few epi are subbed... :mrgreen:

ep 7 is EPIC :metaldevil:
never get tired of re-watching it :smitten:

and I'm curious too on what Risa said when she showed her tummy to Kengo...(wahh!! *faints*)

Spoiler — click to reveal

I think Risa was asking Kengo to remember what her tummy looked like before the surgery, because the surgery will leave a scar on her tummy. I find this scene is really romantic *swoon*. and when Kengo said "shikkari" I DIED!!!!!!

have you checked Nagareboshi official website? there are lots of treasures there :mrgreen:

But what does "shikari" mean?

It's sweet she wants Kengo to remember what her tummy looked like before the surgery. It means at a distant future she wants Kengo to look at her tummy again :hehe:

And I love the scene where Kengo called his mom outside the hospital after Maria finally agreed to the surgery. He hung up the phone and looked at Risa and then they started walking off together. Like a real couple who's been together a long long time. Sighhh....

So many scenes in Ep. 7. I keep watching it over and over again.

"shikkari" can mean "very well", so it means he remembers it very well. I love love love his expression when he said that :smitten:

I beg you pardon...

I didn't watch it properly since I doing a million thing while I was watching it, I didn't see what happen in the following morning after Risa slept on Kengo's bed :p I have to re-watch it again :p

So yes, they sleep in the same room hehehehee... I wonder how that's happen :mrgreen:

as far as I can understand (thanks to Denshi Jisho) I think what everyone said about what Risa said about her tummy was right, for some reason she wants Kengo to remember what her tummy look like before operation, but when Kengo said "‚µ‚Á‚©‚è" it means it look firm or tight. So I'm lost what is the direction of the conversation :headscratch: but still I'm happy with the prospect of their relationship in the next episode :love_eyes:

I'm going for a holiday next week, so I don't think I can watch it the next day >.<

That's ok eeyore! :)
