yes legendary...thick and starchy.
Just finished the first episode of "Teru Teru Ashita". This is one weird drama, but I think I'm going to like it. Kurokawa Tomoka was good - a very convincing change her goody-two-shoe role in "Ame to Yume no Ato ni" to a spoiled-brat-thrown-in-hot-water here.

as for Last Christmas, that's an interesting parallel to draw - i never thought about it in that way but now that you mention it, i see the connection. i'm not a fan of really happy endings or really sad endings just to leave the viewer happily satisfied or deliberately forcing the tears - and despite the ending, i think Last Christmas doesn't do this (at least not so much) which is why i rather like that series as well
otsu karei raisu....
Just finished "Teru Teru Ashita". The only description that comes to mind is "WOW". It's drama, humour, suspense all rolled into one. The cast was excellent - Kurokawa Tomoka and Kimura Tae in particular are commendable. This is one drama I'm sure I'll go back to in a few months.
I started to watch "Stand Up" and "Gokusen 2".
Stand Up is amazing, buit Gokusen 2 i ssuch a failure :sweat:

Wow, you finished a whole series in a day? I'm happy if I can finish an episode at all.

dood...you're going to have hire steve irwin the crocadile hunter to navigate that ish....
I finished "Teru Teru Ashita" and I have to say I thought it was a very weak, rather disappointing show.
I really liked the cast from "Ame to Yume no Ato ni" and maybe I was expecting too much from them... but I thought this one just fizzled.
The show I'm absolutely hooked on right now is Medaka
http://jdorama.com/drama.837.htm
Mimura, who I thought was a rollicking bore in "Beginners" and "Fire Boys", has created a lively, likeable character here, and so far she's carrying the show (with the help of a heck of a supporting cast).
Yes, it's another, idealistic teacher getting involved with her student's personal lives type drama. But a couple of things make it fun. First, it's a night school and the students are mostly adults, so we have a different set of problems. And second, Medaka is brand new to teaching, and has no idea what she's doing. And knows that she has no idea what she's doing. (She only took the job because she got fired from her office job.)
In short, she's not always right. Her well intentioned solutions to the problems tend to turn out wrong.
Only 4 episodes have been subbed so far, and the warning has gone out that it looks like getting the rest of it subbed is gonna be a long process. But I'm more than willing to wait. It's a show I really want to see more of.

Kisarazu Cat's eye episode 4 :applaud:
shin2 wrote:Just finished Tiger and Dragon. It was a pretty clever original series, a description I suspect would not apply to most of the dorama produced in recent years. I enjoyed Toshiyuki Nishida's performance as the rakugo master; he is one of my favorite actors and has had a long and successful career, both in movies and on TV (I think he's appeared in more NHK Taiga dramas than any other actor).
I just finished the 2005 special that spawned the series and the first episode...this dorama is hilarious!
All I can say is the writer/creator of Kisarazu Cat's Eye, IWGP, and Tiger & Dragon (all one in the same) is a comic genuis. The unconventional method of storytelling, the screenwriting, and the fluid chemistry b/n the actors is pure entertaiment.
