Sleeping forest ep 3. It's creepy and mysterious and so exciting, and Kimura is brilliant as always! I'm completely hooked! I want to know what happened to her and why he knows everything!

Watched another disc of Churasan today. Finished at ep 52. Wow, I didn't watch it for a long time and I've already caught up with a lot.
A few years ago I saw a wonderful little movie called Onmyoji.
Nomura Mansai played Abe no Seimei, a court magician (in the days when magic was real, and ghosts roamed the streets of Kyoto and Tokyo.) And Nomura did such a terrific job with the role that I actually found myself forgetting to watch Natsukawa Yui and Hosho Mai.
He was great! And since all great heros have to have a great enemy to oppose... the bad guy in the movie was played by Sanada Hiroyuki.
So I jumped at the chance when I saw that the TV series was on the market.

Amazing the damage one really lousy actor do to a show.
Inagaki Goro plays Seimei in the TV series, and he brings so little to the part that the whole series falls flat on it's face.
While Nomura played the part as if he knew things that no one else in the world could understand. Inagaki plays it as if he doesn't, and won't, know anything until someone tells him his next line.
If you saw and liked the movie... stay far far away from this series.

Is that supposed to make it a better drama? :beaten:
bmw-san~ Have you even watched the drama to assume that it is crap?
LOL. I didn't stuck to watch Sakurai Sho in Yoiko Mikata for the sake of being a fan but you sir, waste your time watching Juri in Last Friends AND that drama she did with Oda Yuji for the sake of being a fan were you not?
its GREAT in low, medium or high definition. yes, thank you for asking.
I'm rewatching it for the sake of every wrinkles and sweat the actors shed. The expressions was so subtle at times that you might lose the meaning with pixelation hindering.

I did... And in my reviews, I said they were both disappointing and pretty bad, so I wasn't fanserving. :P
Episode 2 of Tengoku e no Kaidan. This drama started out slow, but I'm getting more into the story. It's quite interesting to see how an innocent boy turns into a calculating man. Also, this and the drama I saw before is quite annoying because the men are married to cute/sexy women, but they aren't even interested in them. Idiots.
ETA: Aibou 2, second episode. Sugishita is really growing on me. :)
I stayed up until almost 3 am watching sleeping forest last night (I was completely hooked). And so this morning I overslept and had to run all the way to work with an empty stomach and a terrible headache. And now, a very long and tiring day at work later, I'm completely exhausted. So I think I need to watch some Sleeping Forest, even though it put me in this mess to begin with :hehe:
Ahh is there anything like relaxing after a hard day of work with some tea and drama? :mrgreen:
I watched up to episode 5 of Itazura no Kiss. This drama is HILARIOUS! But it's starting to get repetitve and therefore a but boring. Hopefully something happens in epi 6 to revive it a bit.
