What dramas are you currently watching?

I really enjoyed Medaka.

Right now my evening treat is Last Lawyer with Abe Hiroshi. Something of a classic Lawyer who-done-it. I'm forcing myself to stay to the one episode per night deal in order to stretch it out a bit.

I started Koshonin as my lunch time drama.

So far, my favorite scene was Ryoko dancing in the park with the two little girls.

The thing that's probably gonna drive me out of my skull with this show is the disco music during the tense, high drama scenes. I don't like disco and it sure doesn't fit with what's going on on screen.

But as A.D. said... Ryoko looks good.

I'm watching Bara no nai Hanaya.
Really enjoyed watching it.
O-Hanaya-san

Finished Sasaki Fusai no Jingi Naki Tatakai ...very clever and convoluted, a dynamic show...
Koyuki was great (she always looks like a 100 million yen!) and even Inagaki Goro did well...he's usually so wooden...
Wonderful supporting cast...they made it work...Recommended!

Maybe I'll check that out.. now that I've exhausted my queue (just finished the last Nodame Special again), time for finding something new to try :)

Really liked the entire cast ensemble.
And the touching moments weren't too cheesy! :woot:

HMPH! >>stomps foot on your foot<<

On Topic: I've gotten NO WHERE with Love and Eros. :shamefulcry: I think Musa should write my review for me. :bleh:

134 pages? Pfft. It's now a 10-page handout :)

Well, half way through they started switching characteristics, so like suddenly I found myself more attracted to the badboy. The thing is, the female character is so insufferably annoying that it's hard to sympathize with her at all. Asano Atsuko is a great actress and is very convincing in this role. I just don't like the role.

I want to re-watch this drama just so I can get annoyed, but at the same time, I don't want to waste my time when I have almost 200 dramas waiting for me.

And about drama watching. I'm only averaging one episode a day, if that. You can trade less, and still be a serious trader. I've started trading less so I can catch up a bit. Cause the thing is, I really DO want to watch all the dramas I have. :)

I should try watching one drama a day too. But I think I should really learn to say "no" when it comes to drama trading sometimes, unless the person has something that I really want.

I'd totally swap lives with you! I'll just act like I'm busy at work and author as many dramas as possible. :mrgreen: In exchange, you can deal with Medicare and all those annoying insurances while listening to Jpop songs here. :beaten:

On topic: I finished up to episode 7 of Ruri no Shima. I just realized why I'm taking so long watching Japanese dramas--I'm also watching a Korean drama on the DVD player in my room. If I didn't do that, I'd be flying through the Jdramas like everyone else. :bonk:

WAH! One drama a day?! You wanna kill yourself?! Btw, I said "one episode a day". ;)

OK, ok. I guess there's good and bad things for us all :)

I might start watching Churasan at work during lunch. That'll speed things up a bit :)

Oops! I meant "one episode a day." The "drama a day" was just wishful thinking. :P Still, there are people out there who actually do watch 1 drama per day. I'm guessing they're students with no cares in the world. *is envious*

people with no lives... 11 eps at 50 minutes each... who has 550 minutes of spare time in a day?

I'm a student and I definitely have some cares in the world! I watch perhaps too many dramas but never finished one in only one day. I think I did one in two days, maybe. But I think I watch 3-5 eps of various shows on average each day. Before school/work, after, and late at night when I should be sleeping.

I've watched a drama in two days as well, and i think I watched another in one night (plus the evening before). I remember posting each epi here and people being floored that I was running through it. Which drama was that now...?

On Topic: I'm on epi 10 of Love and Eros. They're just pulling teeth now. This show could have been concluded without all the random plot additions.
