No shock here. I'll watch just about anything Kanno Miho or Nagasaku Hiromi are in. And to have them working together figures to be a major treat. And I have to admit... Tanihara Shosuke is growing on me.
^ Just watched the last episode - the drama was a real treat for me, not so much for the script but because of the acting trio Kanno, Nagasaku, Tanihara. :applaud:
BMW, finally started on Kuitan, :sweat: a lot of similarities to Jikou Keisatasu, :woot: first episode was quite good, you're right about the food part, wonder how much he'll weigh by the final episode. :bleh: Would have started on it sooner, hard to believe how long it took to donwload, guess good things come to those who wait. :victory: [image][image]
I just finished Episode 8 of "Attention Please" starring Ueto Aya, and liking it lots despite a whole lot of condescending reviews of it...
As is usually the case in J-doramas, the moral of the story is a powerful one - basically the virtues of ambition and achievement, of determination against formidable odds, the struggle to better oneself even when it doesn't feel good. As is also the case in J-doramas, the contrast of such ethical lessons - within what is otherwise just a light-hearted comedy(!) - is so far above the retro-barbarian dreck that pollutes American television on the civilization scale that it's almost painful to contemplate.

Episode 6 of Futatsu no Spica.....
it's still entertaining... I love the friendship and their hardwork to achieve their dream... but it's getting sadder in epi 5 and 6 Spoiler — click to revealWhy Shu-kun had to die?? poor boy...
it deserve more episodes I tihnk...
7 episodes......too short :grumble:
Decided to take a gamble and watch one I had never heard of, the winner was...Hanayome Wa Yakudoshi! :dancing: Actaully I'm the winner, it's been so enjoyable that I've watched 8 episodes over the last 2 days! Most of the cast are not too known(to me) but are so good to watch, though no doubt it's Ryoko's show, never seen her in anything bad. :victory:
