Please don't use the abbraviation "Jap"... It's considered derogatory.

hey guys,
I'm kind of desperate because I don't know where to watch "Sweet Home"
Where do I find the subbed version?

I would like to find it too, but it seems like we can only get it by trade or purchase?

my mother pushed me to watch some new dramas with her and I think this is a drama that both of us could enjoy ! ^.^/

And I'm going to try out "Hatsu Taiken" right now~ *hops off*

i wanna watch hatsu taiken as well but i think there's no english subs yet... :shamefulcry:

Tiger and Dragon & Kisarazu Cat's Eye, both by the same screenwriter as IWGP, Kudo Kankuro.

^ Thanks, I'll check them out. :3 I've heard about Kisarazu's Cat's Eye before, but never got around to watching it.

No problem. You're welcome. And if you do like these other Kudo Kankuro works I highly recommend his movie Drugstore Girl with actress Rena Tanaka...it's also very funny and entertaining.

Manhattan Love Story is a pretty nice series too, but subtitles are only available for episodes 1-3. :shamefulcry:

That's too bad. I'd like to see Kudo's attempt at something more serious.

Hi everybody,

Please help me:

Can someone tell me some recommondations about dramas such intense dramas like "Karei naru ichizoku"?

I watched so many dramas yet (nearly the half of the Jdorama Top50 and others), there so many good ones (also I did like One litre of tears, Beautiful Life, Jou no kyoushitsu and other where you have to cry :shamefulcry: ), but never I saw such a "BIG"-feeling drama like "Karei naru Ichizoku".

Thank you very much!

Well, if you're looking for a drama where everybody's stabbing each other in the back and almost all the characters are scheming against each other, you could try Nyokei Kazoku http://jdorama.com/drama.973.htm[/list:u]But I know some people didn't like it all for exactly those reasons.[/list:u] Another one that came out this year that I liked a lot is Ashita no Kita Yoshio http://jdorama.com/drama.973.htm It got horrible ratings, possibly because it has an actual plot and it requires you to think.

Shiroi Kyoto is the best 'epic' drama I've seen, all star cast and great storyline. Also the original writer of Shiroi Kyoto wrote both Karei naru Ichizoku and Nyokei Kazoku.

Change is a good one and almost complete (just one ep left)....not as intense as Karei Naru Ichizoku but still pretty good.

Midnight Rain is also another good one

Shiroi Kyoto is filet mignon.

Karei naru Ichizoku is dog food.
