it's a good one. One of my favorite dramas. A beautiful plot, played by my favorite actors and actress :mrgreen:

tips from me: prepare loads of tissue coz there are lots of touching moments. Listening to the theme song is enough to make your eyes teary :D

recommended :thumbsup:

Episode 11 - finished! It was the chemistry between the 2 leads that made this one so enjoyable. 8/10

What next?

Wish Kaneshiro did more dramas, another one I enjoyed of his was Love 2000 where he plays a spy from Eastern Europe sent to Japan, the chemistry isn't as strong as in Golden Bowl but still solid, Miho Nakayama plays the female lead. :victory:

Anoooo... have you checked out any of the (relatively) new stuff? JIN? Untouchable? Buzzer Beat? (no, scratch that :beaten:)

I saw Eita's mug among your pantheon of Jdorama beauties. :mrgreen: Voice? (I have it on disc, but it's waaaaaaaay down my queue.)

I have SO many dramas on disc already, I haven't bothered downloading anything new. And Buzzer Beat... hmm. Maybe if it was called Yamapi Beat (with a plank) ;)

Dude, what Ueno Juri-shaped rock have you been hiding under? :mrgreen: Of the younger Idols only Pi has been bringing in the ratings for Don Johnny Corleone. JE might as well go the same route as JAL without their Mr. Getsu 9. :rolleyes:

How do you know about my rock? :P

JE can go the way of the dinosaur for all I care... A thunderous sigh of relief from young men throughout Japan will most likely be heard. :hehe:

Nay, beemer, thunderous would be the sound of The Great Fangirl Stampede that will inevitably ensue as all the crying fans swarm down the cliffs like lemmings, plunging the great nation of Nihon into unprecedented demographic collapse. :shakehead:

About to take a look at YNSH and Tokujo Kabachi :beaten:

LOL the rating's the only thing going for him as he got nothing else, with acting as wooden as a plank. :hehe:

Believe it or not I did get until Stage 5 for Nobuta wo Produce, but then he got so annoying and wooden again in Kurosagi that it bothered and made me ask myself, why the hell I liked him in the first place? Apparently I liked the Akira character not Yamapi the actor and I just had to find it out the hard way. :hehe: Couldn't get over how un-improved he is over the courses of his dramas after that. He's still the most over-rated young lead actor in JE in my book. That kinda pisses me off considering how many potential lead actors in the jimusho whose far superior talents are overlooked just because they don't have his looks. It's a sad and unfair situation, but that's entertainment world for you. :( And I still can't believe how he never tries to improve his acting and got even worse with each stint.

Aaand I feel like I should've posted this in Yamapi's thread instead. :hehe: :banghead:
