What dramas are you currently watching?

^ Bon apetit!

Finished with Boku dake no Madonna, I like this dorama.

I'm currently watchin' kurosagi too bad i have to wait for each episode weekly since it just started last 14th and currently running in Japan. Just finished Orange days, it's so-so. My faves are still H2, Nobuta wo Produce and Waterboys 2! :applaud:

I wanted to start watching it, but everybody says it's awesome. I woundn't be able to wait for the episodes to be released. :sweat:

I'll probably start watching maid in akihabara tomorrow. Can't wait. :D

Yeah IWGP, I'm quite enthusiastic about, because it's unique in that it deals with the subculture of Tokyo youth in Ikebukuro...and that it's primarily a comedy..that doesn't have the same host of conventional characters you see in a lot of doramas with younger actors.

Maid in Akihabara...I finished watching it...it was a worthy corporate effort despite it's short length. It was just right though, without dragging on forever. Very funny stuff.

Finished "Jikou Keisatsu". I've rated it an '8' - above expectations.

yeah, a good find on Maid in Akihabara...it was very entertaining.

there are a lot of new j-dramas out, most not sub'd, but still worth checking out.

...and not to mention other gravure idols that were in j-dramas, for example
Saki Seto : Haruka 17, HYD, Shimokita Glory Days. :say_yes:

Just finished Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta Koto. It's very touching. Rie Tomosaka portrayed an autistic girl very convincingly.

Now on to Wonderful Life. Seems like GTO but with a baseball setting.

finished watching nurse aoi...it wasn't that good...uncompelling, conventional, and uninspired, almost hackneyed in some ways. although i like satomi ishihara her performance was nothing special and story (or lack thereof) was almost gravely uninteresting. the supporting cast did little to add to the tension or suspension of disbelief. i gave it a 6/10

ya get the idea that they produce dramas solely to promote a starlette... with no substance, it's hard for them to shine. :sweat: :beaten:

that's a very apt comment, and i wholeheartedly agree with the substance. i even mentioned before that this dorama is merely a vehicle to capitalize on satomi ishihara's fame and beauty but there is very little else invested in it to make it a great dorama. lacking in several dimensions.

considering it's theme, there should've been more moe involved as well.

Yup, I watched Nurse Aoi too and wasn't fascinated at all...
