Sad day in L.A. Sports: All the home teams (Dodgers, Ducks, and Lakers) lose... On Mother's Day.


(BTW, I don't count the Angels as a L.A. team... :bleh: )

For my english final we have to do a mock business interview
We are doing everything involved by making cover letters and resumes!

On the cover letter we got to pick any name we wanted to name the person we are writing to! The frist name that came into my head was Ryoko Yonekura! xD

There's one thing I don't like about this site and it may lead me to leaving permanently. This has nothing to do w/ differing opinions; every person has his/her preferences and I respect that. My decision is due to the lack of comments in most of the latest dramas' threads; seems like a lot of the active users prefer to wait for the subs to be complete before watching it. That means those threads are practically dead while the dramas are airing (w/ a few exceptions); it's like talking to a phantom audience when you post a comment. For a site named JDorama.com, non jdrama related posts seem to overwhelm the drama related ones. If you look at the kind of posts each day; very few (if any) are related to the current season's dramas. This is where other boards are better from my perspective (yes, even d-addicts IMO). I like discussing current dramas while they're fresh in my mind; when people start doing that after the subs are complete (and there's no guarantee when that'll be due to the subbers' schedule), I'll be already watchig the latest dramas.

This is not construed to be rap on this site (which may have a completely different charter than the other sites); it's probably just one of my idiosyncrasies and pls feel free to correct me if I'm completely off base.

I agree, but I don't really watch new dramas so I don't mind.

What are some good sites for discussing the latest dramas? I may not watch them but I like reading about how people find them.

Al lot of regulars have been burnt before by subbing teams that start a project and never finish it: a good reason to wait for subs to be finished before starting.

A lot of regulars are MIA too.

Well I like to wait for subs to be completed because then I'm sure I have all of them. As for as discussing airing dramas, I can't unless I watch an episode and since I don't understand Japanese I have to wait for subs, I have no other choice. For example, right now I'm watching Shiroi Haru, but I've only seen the first two eps because that's all that TimeLesSub has released and it looks like the next subs will be delayed. Now I can't really discuss the latest ep (5 I believe), without haven't seen it. And I really hate spoilers so I stay away from the thread.

The name of the site is "JDorama.com" not "New JDorama.com". I just finished watching Asunaro Hakusho it came out in 1993. But before watching it, I checked here to see the opinions of others that had already seen it. We've got a pretty healthy database built up on dramas and I'll usually check it before starting a drama. [/list:u] As far as the new stuff goes, like others have mentioned I like to wait for it to be subbed which means there's always gone to be a delay. Just my .02

Exactly.

Most of us have been hung out to dry by some fansubbers who lose interest when subbing a project and just drop the task abruptly... So in the mean time we have to keep ourselves busy with non-dorama-related chatter.

Besides, there IS more to life than doramas... :victory:
