I thought Ryoko was delightful in "Brother Beat"

By the way... in case you hadn't noticed, Ryoko will be appearing in a TV movie titled Hoshi Hitotsu no Yoru with Ken Watanabe.

The movie is set to air on May 25th.

Of course I'll take Ryoko chan anyway I can get her.... :hehe:

Thanks for the heads up. I hope it will be broadcast here in southern cal.

lately Fuji TV has been acting very strange with us...cancelling a lot of programs. I know they will no longer show any Eng sub dramas. So even if it broadcasts here it will not have subs. But that's fine with me I can just stare at Ryoko.... eventually someone will supply the subs.
:applaud:

I finished "Himitsu no Hanazono" last night, and I'm really kind of annoyed that I won't have another episode of it to watch tonight, so I guess it's safe to say that I really enjoyed it.

It's a light romantic comedy. It didn't make me cry, and it didn't make me roll on the floor with uncontrollable laughter. But it made me happy, it kept a smile on my face for 11 episodes, and it kept me interested in the little mystery it set up for itself.

Most romantic comedies focus on the will they or won't they get together thing.

There was an aspect of that here, but there was also the mystery of the "real" secret of Hanazono. As I say, it kept me interested. And the ending was very satisfying.

As to the cast... Shaku Yumiko was the lead. And she was... okay, she was adorable. But there was more there this time. She's learning the lessons of comedy and she produced a few scenes where there was more there than just a sexy girl. There were the first signs of a budding goofball.

And as comic relief within the comedy, there was Maya Miki who surprised the heck out of me. She normally plays these serious, middle aged women. But here... she got to be something of a ditz, and she's a heck of a ditz.

Hmm, I guess I shouldn't have deleted it from my hard drive. :sweat:

I can always regenerate a new copy. :victory:

Fuurin Kazan ep 17 :good:

BMW

It's not slap-stick in the style of Jikou Keisatsu, Kui tan or Nodame, but it is fun.

And I enjoyed it enough to be very happy when they hinted at the end that there might be another series.

Not hard to understand why it is so popular. :applaud:

YAY! Another one on the bandwagon! :yippee:

I have to admit that Takuya is a very cool guy, no matter many people said he always act as a cool guy in every dorama.

Pride is one of my all-time fav dramas. I think Kimura has the best chemistry with Takeuchi. I'm glad you're enjoying it so far!

Schedule? What's that? :headscratch:

That was after watching about a million eps of Honnaman :P Wyn-chan is a drama watching machine! She watched Honnamon and Good Luck after I finished Nodame, and in that time i've watched 3 eps of Unfair :)

It takes me, on average with work, a little under a week to finish one drama. Honmamon took me nearly a month! I'm trying to deplete my watch list so I can add more. :mrgreen:

You will see my beloved Kuninaka Ryoko in an entirely different role. I'm not sure I like seeing her like this. :doh:

Like what? The geeky nerdy type? I think she's charming so far!

On Topic: Brother Beat epi 2. I'm so hooked.

Ok so I finished Lunch no Joou today I plan to start Good Luck tomorrow (if I can drag myself away from Heroes)
Could do with getting my hands on the next Liar Game ep and Proposal Daisakusen

Brother Beat epi 3!

finished Shinsengumi

definitely a 10/10

i nearlycried at the ending. actually, nearly cried so many times, especially in season 4 like when

Spoiler — click to reveal

Kawai was told to do a seppuku

and etc.

no further comment. 49 episodes of a worth watching experience. this is simply a masterpiece. if i go ahead, i might go hyping and could sound like one of those diehard fruityboy fangirl.

One of the performances I really like was Sawa Suzuki as Akesato (Yamami's girlfriend) boy she was good! It's hard to act like someone that's not real bright, but she really pulled it off, especially when you realized, she wasn't so dumb after all. The other reason I like Shinsengumi is because, unlike most Taiga dramas, you're not spending half your time trying to work your way thru some convoluted family tree, with half-brothers, and multiple wives, and who's related to who! :bonk:

oh yeah, so true. too bad her part wasn't that much due to what happened to Yamami, it was interesting to see those two's love life in the dorama though.

i'm hooked to Yamamoto Koji after watching Kareinaru Ichizoku and Shinsengumi in a row. i find it amazing how he can play a role where the character pictures himself as a bad guy but actually isn't a bud guy afterall, in both Shinsengumi and Kareinaru Ichizoku

i have to check more of his doramas

Finished Brother Beat epi 4. ALMOST had me in tears. I love romantic angst. :D

Me too, but unfortunatelly I can not watched the last 10 minutes of the final episode because there is trouble with the DVD I guessed.
It is really annoying that I already watched the last 5 episodes in a row (until 3 AM) and I do not know the end of the story. :shamefulcry: :shamefulcry:

I am really curious right now, can anyone tell me the story after Halu was hospitalized after beating Green Monster, and then Aki came and ........ my DVD screwed up.

Just starting epi 2 of Tiger and Dragon. I love epi 1!! Very funny when he talks about ancient stories. :applaud:
