What dramas are you currently watching?

Started Shinai Naru Mono E. On ep 3 right away. Asano Yuko rocks.
Im liking it! :thumbsup:

I'm playing Russian roulette again, waiting on the first team to finish an episode for the Spring shows (and still clinging desperately to the collection of Mop Girl episodes sitting on drive since last December *whimper*).

Shows I'm anticipating to watch this season:

- Last Friends (good cast, trying to avoid comments but not sounding too hot thus far)

- Gokusen 3 (you never know, it MIGHT be good :sweat: )

- ROOKIES (I've become a HUGE Sato Ryuta fan ever since Utahime, and the backing cast are guys I've liked before)

- Zettai Kareshi (Premise seems interesting with the whole robo theme)



While on standby, I've actually been kinda lax on the dramas, watching a few episodes here and there of random favourites.

So Ive seen 4 of the short eps of Boku to Kanojo no XXX. Its about a switch between two students into the others bodies. Honestly that isnt a spoiler. It is the entire premise for the short series. Still it is cutely done. Some of the effects are quite funny. Im liking it. :D

Currently watching Karei naru Ichizoku, seen 2 episodes and both have been good so far, it's getting quite interesting. Recommend to all. :)

Ehh? :headscratch:

I'm watching Gokusen again with a cousin, so I'm not sure if I should still watch Bambino. Two dramas with MatsuJun at the same time? :sweat:

Mebbe I'll watch the first epi of Bambino and see how it goes...

Let me clarify: I'm trying to avoid listening to the people who are ragging on the series as it's only into it's first episode. I suppose it's a typo if anything. Make sense?

Though decision.
Maybe you'll fall for him and get additiced ;) :P

Yama Onna Kabe Onna epsisode 3. I'm stressed and need a witless drama - this fits the bill perfectly. :beaten:

Are people ragging on it? :headscratch:

I jumped into the conversation in the official thread on page 22 with phlargo's comments specifically, it wasn't cut-throat comments, but it was 'disappointment' comments.

Hopefully I don't have to break out a crayon drawing for explaining this! :sweat:


Oh, and... :headscratch: :shoot: :beaten: :hehe:

Well, it's not really a rip... Some people have higher/different expectations than others...

I mean, if they were all positive comments and you in particular were disappointed, would that be better or any different than someone else saying they were disappointed?

I'll refer back to my comments on the Nodame SP and leave it at that to agree with you. I still want to see it, no need to defend my desire to avoid people's semi-negative comments! :P

Those who like Yasashii Jikan might want to try Hakei chichiue-sama too. Same screenwriter and Nino leads the cast.

I thought "Double Shot" is good cop drama........

Currently watching (or finishing) Manhatten Love Story and the annual showcase of ¢‚É‚àŠï–­‚È•¨语(japanese version of twilight zone)

I've been watching "Shika Otoko Aoniyoshi"

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Shikaotoko_Aoniyoshi

Sort of a fantasy/quest/talking animals/--- thinger.

Not bad. Not great, but...

As a rule with stories like this I'm a big fan of saying the journey is the thing. I mean, the end, the punch line is pretty much always the same. They lived happily ever after. You know? (If not, the world is destroyed and there's noone left to watch the TV show.)

So you have to enjoy the journey. You have to enjoy the unraveling of the mystery...

With this one, so far, I spend a lot of time thinking... get on with it! Get there!

On a pleasant, if trivial, note: Shibamoto Yuki has a supporting role in this show. She's the young actress who made her debut in Fuurin Kazan as Princess Yuu... and absolutely lit up the screen.

It's nice to see her in a modern role. I just wish she had a bit more to do.

THE HORROR! Mind you, I didn't mind him in Gokusen. Kimi wa Petto ruined it for me tho.

Ahhhhh yes, another wonderfully written drama. :good:

Okay... Just trying to ensure peace and tranquility in the Hotbed of J-Drama Discussion... :beaten:

I couldnt get into the Chichuie-sama drama. Watched only the first 4 eps/

Am on ep 4 of Shinai Naru Mono E. I will be finishing this one.
It is very good so far. :applaud:

I watched the 9th episode of Jigoku blahblahblah last night. It kind of grew on me, but it's still a so-so drama. Thank goodness my Shiro finally showed up (he was only in the first episode! :() to amuse me, but only for a minute. =T

Watched the first episode of Asakusa Fukumaru Ryokan season 2 tonight. I liked it. :) It's a nice heartwarming family/inn drama and reminded me slightly of the Onsen e Ikou series. It was amusing to see Tennouji-sama of Hana Kimi fame as the son. He's like a better looking version of Domoto Tsuyoshi. :hehe:
