What dramas are you currently watching?

Go, Episode 12, on broadcast TV.

Shokojo Seira. The first 3 episodes were a bit hard to watch but the next 3 are getting better. Shida Mirai is terrific in this.

Shokojo Seira was made bearable for me because of Shida. Really, she can be in the most mediocre of dramas and still be the shining star.

GM Odore Doctor, Episode 4, on broadcast TV. :victory:

She made it worth watching, definitely. She's so short compared with everyone else but I never got that impression when she was speaking. She's going to be in Bull Doctor next season, only a small role though.

Just finished it. Here's my review.

Shida Mirai and Higuchi Kanako are both terrific here and the supporting performances are all good too. The series has its moments, I particularly like the backstories and some of the points it makes, but because the story mainly revolves around people being mean and abusive to Sara, sometimes for little reason, this was not such a great series for me. Must watch for any Shida Mirai fan though. 7/10

Go, Episode 19, raw.

Marumo episode 5. It was fun to watch again. Everyone are really nice and they all care for Marumo and the kids. The part with Aya and Makimura-san was really funny. :hehe:

Majisuka Gakuen 2 - up to 6 episodes :bonk:

Additional to Ryōmaden, I've started Bijo ka Yajū (Beauty or beast).
Can't help the paragon with News no onna: same work settings and equally funny, sadly also the same video quality :sweat:

Bloody Monday Ep 2

I've finished 4 episodes of Dragon Zakura. So far, the show is a mixed bag for me.

The main driving force for me to watch was Abe Hiroshi... Then I realized he couldn't save the drama, so I dropped it.

Hancho 4. Pleasant surprise. The plots were so much more intriguing than the prequels.

Nodame Cantabile in Europe - finished :mrgreen:

Noo, you can't drop it, Abe Hiroshi can make any drama interesting. I actually knew about Abe Hiroshi from this drama. Yes the drama is pure crap mostly but Abe Hiroshi is so funny here ^^ I didn't find it that bad after finishing it for some reason.

Thinking of watching J-dramas again since I got time now, maybe JIN 2 for the starter. I still can't take sad dramas after I watched Shiroi Haru, that drama made part of me died inside...

It was one of the more tragic dramas of recent memory. :(

Definitely, Shiroi Haru will leave a unhealing mark to me for the rest of my life...
Ontopic though:
I'm kinda looking for some romantic drama with a pair with good chemistry, I have an urge to watch dramas with good pairs like Ahomiya & Buchou and Nodame & Chiaki-Senpai.

Have you seen Muri na Renai?

Unconventional romantic drama, but a wonderful performance by Natsukawa Yui. :applaud:

You should watch JIN first, otherwise a lot of it won't make sense.
