Hmmm. It's not set in stone... but focusing on Ryoko-chan wouldn't be difficult.

The brother got too annoying for me in Churasan after ep 10 so Im taking a break.

Watched the first 2 eps of Tetteiteki ni ai wa/True love is....
Its is absorbing. Im liking it. :D
The two main couples are interesting and I always enjoy Naitou Takashi in his varying roles.

Goyaman guy? Yeah, he really annoyed me too. I hated the scenes he was in. :usuck:

Naitou Takeshi's in this? Not really a fan of his, but if I'll consider watching it if it's that good.

Stick with it, Evie, like was posted above he appears less later on and so is a bit easier to take.

I like this a lot especially Inamori Izumi. I had just finished watching her inn Batsu Kare so I became her fan. However, once again I'm in the minority as many folks delight in dissing her. You will see a very different side of her compared to the somber first lady or something in Atsu Hime.

No it wouldn't. :victory:

Even though I loved Oba and Eri's parents, Churasan really didn't take off for me until she got to Tokyo and moved in with Miho Kanno, Kimiko Yo and all the other wackos at the boarding house. [/list:u]

I had to look her up in the database - she's not listed in the Atsu-hime cast. I know who you mean now :)

I didn't like him at first too, but he grew on me as the series went on. The actor who played his character actually put in a good performance. I think he won a Best Newcomer award for his role in Churasan.

Inamori Izumi actually played a few ditzy, supporting characters before she got better roles. She was really good in Long Vacation even though her character didn't really have a subplot of her own.

I'm currently interested in Kiina & MR.BRAIN, admittedly they are similar...

Also I'm enjoying the Chinese drama Demi Gods & Semi Devils.

Im on ep 4 of Tetteiteki ni ai wa/True love is....
Im taken by all the characters. And the pace moves along.
Somehow since it takes places at the Foreign Office it doesnt have the feeling of a regular office drama.

He is so annoying.... :beatyou:

Keisho comes and goes, like Ralph said. He does warm up to you later, but the whole thing with Goya Man really gets annoying where Keisho is involved.

Goya Man himself is quite charming, I find!

Well as long as he wont be there forever, I'll start back in. I have no issues with the toy. ;)
I love the other characters. Even the n'er do well Dad. :applaud:

Currently watching two Korean dramas at the same time. I can't decide on what jdrama to watch next.

Agreed. I didn't really appreciate her until Beach Boys, because Pretty Girls was such a bad experience for me. I loved her in Beach Boys.

And that's just getting started. You haven't even experienced the best characters yet! Mariya, Yoko, and Nanako are my FAVOURITES!

If you really bog down in these early episodes, you can just FF thru the next 5 or so discs without loosing very much. Admitedly the goya man episodes do tend to be tedious.

Downloading Mr. Brain from Live Journal. What a great site.... perfect sharp clear videos that simply explode on my wide screen TV. Watched about 20 minutes of the first ep. Don't ell me, now that I'm enamored with Hirosue Ryoko, that she is only a cameo in those first few minutes?
But even so I can see now that this will be the usual great performance that is now the rule for KimuTaku. How can one actor so quickly totally engross you in any drama he performs in.
:bow: :bow: :bow:
