Sweet, yeah. But if you haven't read "Flowers for Algernon" or seen the movie "Charlie" (Cliff Robertson 1968) I'll hit you with the big spoiler...

Spoiler — click to reveal

this one is a heart breaker.

Because I had read the book and I had seen the original movie, I stopped watching the Dorama at episode 6 because Santamaria Yusuke was just doing way too good a job with the character.

I currently finished the crying out love in the center of the world, and its such a tear jerker .......I love how yamada takayuki and haruka ayase perform in this drama, and im addicted to them and their other programs together now...... :applaud:

episode 4 of Xenos :bleh:


Geezer, yeah, i don't like it. okay, i like Warui Yatsura and Cupid no Itazura but not this.

some boobies were really not needed.

Orion the person who worked at the dvd rental said, "who's renting Xenos?" and the she made this some sort of oh-my-gawd face when she saw that it was me

currently watching Hanazakari no Kimitachi e...

I haven't seen the movie or heard of it till you mentioned it and till I read this site, but I really thought that the plot was interesting. I had no idea that there was a book too; maybe I should look it up one day.

I finished episode 2. I think that the innocent relationship that he has with his teacher is so touching.

That must've been embarassing. :rofl: Is it really that bad of a drama though? All boobies and not so much of a plot?

Wow, I guess "Flowers for Algernon" is no longer required reading!

Anyway, Cori, keep watching...it's a powerful show, with terrific performances from all of the cast and an ending that , well, is perfect!!!

It is one of the best short SF novels (or novelettes) I've ever read, and I believe it won a Hugo award too.

I won't watch this drama because I'd be very upset if they mess it up. OTOH, if they did a great job I still won't watch it for reasons cited by Geezer in his spoiler section.

Was it ever?

Oddly, I've seen the film adaptations of movie before reading the book more times than not: The Grapes of Wrath, Shane, Shogun... :beaten:

The reasons Geezer cited in his spoiler is all the more reason to watch it...Geezer makes no sense!...

Seriously... Santamaria Yusuke was knocking it out of the park. That's why I had to bail.

Now... Tonight. I could watch episode 8 of Jodan Janai!, or I could break out Vol. 1 of the 1974 season of the "Zatoichi" TV series that Netflix just sent me.

Hmmm. Rough decision.

Hark! Is that the sound of a wandering masseur's whistle that I hear in the distance?

It was in the Houston Independent School District...

I wish it was a required reading book because the ones we had to read were the standard boring ones.

And I will keep on watching it. Hopefully the shitty subs will get better. :grumble:

If you do watch this drama, hopefully you don't get the bad subtitled version that I have. There are a lot of "??" and parts where it was typed in romaji where the "translator" had no clue what was being said. Even simple things like "nani ga mitsuketa?" and "dekiru yo" were written (crappily) in romaji. I think that if someone doesn't know enough Japanese, they shouldn't make fansubs or if need be, they should consult with someone who does instead of releasing this garbage. :usuck: Sorry for ranting in the wrong thread, beem. :(

It was in the New York school system. Both Public and Catholic.

Not a problem as long as it isn't prolonged... :)

I hear ya totally 'bout the bad subs: I've made suggestions more than once on various D-Addict forum threads regarding grammar and spell checking, but they've been for naught... I know beggars shouldn't be choosers, but the suggestions are clearly constructive... :sweat:
