Lol @ "eyebrow dude". :rofl:
I'm sure I've seen someone on Jdorama describe Kame as an "emaciated turtle", but I can't remember who. I know it made me laugh hard.

Yes but his eyebrows are more refined than mine :sweat:
On topic: episode 7 of Mirai Koshi Meguru

I've gone back and started rewatching the first season of Jikou Keisatsu.

I'd forgotten how much more subdued things were in the first season, but then I remembered that they didn't really drop the acid until the 7th or 8th episode.

I'm watching IRYU2. Good drama.

I've been watching Mukodono 2003. I really am trying to enjoy it just as a stand-alone show, but I can't help comparing it to the far superior first one. Why did they even make another one? Better to reshow the first one, I say. I think my main problem with it is that the wife is kind of boring. There is really no chemistry between her and Sakuraba Yuuichiro. I can't even tell that their characters are married. They did not need to make a sickeningly sweet and dorky couple like with Takeuchi Yuko's character but they should have done something to make her more interesting at least.

Yup. I just watched it. It was episode #8.

Nodame Cantabile episode 1. Fabulous! It's helping to soothe my sorrow over the end of Kuitan 2. :victory:

Aoi Tokugawa episode 48.
Cant believe we're near the end of this stupendous series. :beaten:
Might have to check out Oda Nobunaga (Taiga version) next.

Yay! :woot: :dancing:

As much as I like Kuitan, Nodame should more than soothe your sorrow... More like make you completely forget it... :mrgreen:

Eve,

Might have to check out Oda Nobunaga (Taiga version) next.

Are you taking about Tachi Hiroshi's Oda in "Koumei Ga Tsuji"?

Or Kimura's Oda in the two part TV movie?

This Taiga Drama spans the entire life of Japanfs first great warlord, Oda
