What dramas are you currently watching?

Oddly, some people who haven't seen it, refuse to watch it because it evolved from a Manga... But a ton of dramas have evolved from Manga, so what's the point? :headscratch:

maybe becoz a lot of doramas that evolved from a manga ended up being a total flop. Name it... Gokusen, Kurosagi, N's Aoi?? :hehe:

nah, but Iryu and Nodame proves that manga evolved doramas can be really good.

i think i'm gonna continue Be Nice to People...

I wouldn't call Gokusen a flop. Maybe not highly regarded, but it was/is very popular.

Gokusen 2, on the other hand.... :bleh:

Tricks are for kids...overrated and highly redundant.

I'm liking it so far... but I am surprised that there are two more seasons for it. :headscratch:

There's a movie too, but it's not really good. ... and that's from someone who like the drama. :beaten:

How many gay looking Liberachi dressed characters could they have possibly had on Trick....the only trick was trying to devine who didn't get it in the a$$....there i said....

abe and yukie are great...but the villians were as scary as old man's bunions.

There're lots of puns and cultural references that don't translate well into English (see one of the reviews in the Trick thread by a subber). I like the 2nd season the most; although the episodes are more of the whodunit type and thus easier to digest (ep. 3 is quite ingenious).

BTW, there're also 2 feature-length movies (not TV SPs).

The villian for epi 4-5 really freaks me out. Black lipstick really doesnt' do anything for him. Someone should tell him.

Correction to my previous comment:

The review I referred to is in the 'Trick 2' thread, and by ep. 3 I really mean the 3rd story of the series, not the 3rd episode.

After all the nudging, begging, and pleading from beem, I finally started to watch Koi ni Ochitara. I've only seen the first episode and I'm liking it already. :victory:

See...............?

*vindicated* :woot:

I finished Watashitachi no Kyokasho (Our Text Book)

http://jdorama.com/drama.1140.htm

Now that was a show worth watching.

Not a lot of laughs. In fact, in the end it's quite sad.

But three cheers for Miho Kanno who continues to take on interesting, and often less than flattering characters.

Three cheers for Jun Fubuki who shows you what being a pro is all about.

A couple of heart felt cheers for newcomer (at least to me) Suzuki Kasumi (Po) for creating a very memorable character.

And one question; Has anyone ever seen Tomiura Satoshi beforre. The kid who played Riku. That can't be that kid's voice, can it? I mean, at first I assumed he was a girl and at some point in the story that would be a big reveal. Riku is really a girl!!! No.

So when that didn't happen, I kept wondering why they had a woman dubbing in all of his lines.

So the question is... does he sound like that in any of the other dramas he's done?

I need to lighten it up a bit. I'm gonna start on "My Boss My Hero" I loved the original Korean movie. Hopefully that won't make me go into the series with a chip on my shoulder.
