What dramas are you currently watching?

Are you kidding? Have you seen the moles and freckles on her face? Don't get me wrong - I actually rather like Hoshino Mari. The photo, however, is a tad over-touched-up.

I see your point. Yeah, from what I remember she have a small mole near her left eye, but I don't think it is visible at that distance. :bonk:

Just finished Ai no Uta. The end was so touching, that I started to cry

:rofl: lol!!! That's what makes it impossible to say that one show is good and one show is bad. We're all too differant.

I watched Ai no Uta, and was really enjoying it. But the ending annoyed me so much it pretty much ruined the whole show for me.

Re the conversation about: watching entire dramas in one sitting

I used to do that. I watched absolutely everything I could get my hands on, and if it was anywhere close to good I'd plant myself in the chair and watch til the sun came up.


After a while, (quite a while) I forced myself to stop doing that. Partly because I'd have these blank periods where I didn't have any drama to watch. Man, that was annoying. And partly because I knew I was missing stuff watching it all at once like that.

Eventually I forced myself to start following the one episode a day rule.

Sometimes I screw up. Sometimes shows are just so good I have to watch a bit more. But mostly I stick to the rule, and I find I enjoy the shows even more this way.

It also means I don't have to grab anything that's out there in order to have something to watch. It lets me be a little more discriminating.

Thats what I do.. well a limit of 2 a day.
That way you can "savor" the drama more.
At first I thought.. I'll watch all the dramas I can as soon as possible.
But I thought life is long.. :bonk: I could watch those doramas someday.
But even before that I've never tried watching anything on one sitting. Thats too extreme for me. :beaten: The fastest I could.. is watch a whole dorama in 2 days.

You may want to admire from a distance but I prefer to be up close and personal. :muack:

i used to watch doramas all in one sitting too but lately, it just feels like there's less and less time to do that which is a shame. i find that watching a dorama (particularly good ones) continuously gives you a more complete experience than if you were to break it up to watch in several different sessions. i only started to watch incomplete series starting a couple of months ago before i ran into the exact same problem of having to wait til the next one came out. these days, i've refined the procedure down to watching only doramas i have (complete) along with the more currently released doramas that are being subbed at a substantially fast pace - that way, i can still keep up with some of the current doramas but still be able to finish others if i run into the waiting game.

edit: starting ep 6 of 1L of tears - this dorama is very well done

Have you seen her in "Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo 2005" ? She was outstanding in that 1-episode drama.

she was great in kinpachi sensei 6 too :victory:

finished 1 Litre of Tears, one of the most poignant stories in any jdorama series i've seen - even more so than Beautiful Life. first dorama in a while that i've finished within a day :mrgreen:. giving this a perfect score of 10/10

I finished Pride last night. Although I was slightly disappointed with how the end came about, I think this drama has the best love story I have ever seen.

Everything that a girl could ever ask for in a love story was captured in Pride... in my opinion, anyways. :mrgreen:

Now... onto Attention Please. Another Tu-san suggestion. :thumbsup:

No...not yet. How is she in there?

Hoshino Mari had rather limited roles in the dramas I saw her featured, such as "Bus Stop" and "Tokyo Friends". In "Kindaichi" at least she got to try something a little different. I can't say much without giving away the plot. Get it from D-Addicts and judge for yourself.

good choice. :thumbsup:
Ryo is so cool in that dorama.

I finished watching Kurosagi. Interesting story. Yamapi is a cool cheater, kind of Robin Hood of Cheater.

Planning to watch Remote or Gal Circle (Gyarusa).
