First episodes of Dragon Zakura and Yaou/Yaoh. They seemed ok so far, but nothing special. They just seemed like rehashed shows (GTO and Salaryman Kintaro for DZ; the male version of Jotei for Yaou).

Oh dear, Yaoh was on my watching list - I hated Jotei and quit after 10 minutes of listening to Kato RosaLs annoying voice.

On topic: last episode of Seigi no Mikata followed by the last episode of Maou

I'm finally watching a drama again after a lenghty hiatus during which I was watching Japanese films and anime. I'm watching Sasaki Fusai no Jingi Naki Tatakai...man I haven't seen Koyuki in a drama since Kimi wa Petto I think! It's fairly funny thus far (just started).

Man she has a gorgeous wardrobe. She looks stunning.

In addition, I think it's the first time I've ever seen Goro in a drama...kinda weird. :beaten:

I only saw one episode, so that's not much to go by. If it's on your list, you should give it a try. Or wait till I post more mini-reviews. :P

Don't expect much from Dragon Zakura the girls can drool over Abe and the guys can drool over Hasagawa, otherwise there's nothing much there. On topic: finished epi 10 of 14 Sai no Haha I thought this would be the typical "teenage pregnancy" cliche, but it's been really good so far, mostly because of Mirai Shida. :applaud: [/list:u]

Makes no sense why a lot of people liked it then. But I guess with some people, a pretty or handsome face can carry a whole drama. =T

Ooh, I'm tempted more and more to watch this drama now.

Haha...yeah but that the cost of that wardrobe could keep all of us on this board in sushi for at least 6 months.

Probably :) She looks so good in smart clothes - a real model.

I've only ever seen Goro in Churasan, where his character is really over the top. I can't picture him being any other way :)

Very statuesque.

I only remember seeing him in the film Warai no Daigaku where he was really good....but I suspect he got a boost given the fact the film was a Koki Mitani film which tend to be really good gems.

She looks like a guy to me in some pics and in some samurai drama that I skimmed through. One of her manly pics is actually featured on this site too: http://jdorama.com/artiste.239.htm

On topic: Uh, gonna watch Atsuhime tonight I guess.

Gori is the name of the actor in Churasan; Goro (Inagaki) is the name of the actor in the Sasaki dorama. Inagaki is one of the SMAP guys. :bleh:

I tried watching that Sasaki series a couple of months ago; quit after the third episode. Makoto Fujita and Masahiko Nishimura--two good actors--are wasted in this series. Koyuki, while trying hard and looking great, is hampered by a lousy script and Inagaki's presence.

Tu_triky: I think Goro's performance in University of Laughs was an aberration; as you pointed out, he had the good fortune to work with a Mitani script. Plus, he got paired up with Koji Yakusho who basically pulled him along for the ride.

That's an insult to Spam, which people from Hawaii know is one of the all-time greatest meat products ever invented. :applaud:

All of the SMAP guys are lesser lights, imo. :twisted:

Can't argue with that... Though I think Kusanagi is a step better than the rest.
