JDrama Recommendations

missind33 wrote:Can anyone please recommend a good comedy/romance, or mystery/comedy series?

I've seen: GTO, Hana Yori Dango (season 1 & 2), Good Luck, Orange Days, Nodame Cantabile, H2, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e, Attention Please, Proposal Daisakusen, Dance Drill, Galileo, Himitsu no Hanazono, Honey And Clover, I've Been Married To Hell, Joshi Deka, Nobuta wo Produce, One Pound Gospel, Shibatora, and Tokyo Love Story, and probably more which I cannot think off the top of my head.

I really dislike series that revolve around food for some reason.

I would like to thank people who have given me suggestions in the past, and thank you for anyone who gives me any suggestions now.

- comedy/romance: My boss my hero, Kekkon Dekinai Otoko, Golden Bowl, Densha Otoko, Hanayome to Papa (I didnLt enjoy this one though) and Zettai Kareshi
- mystery/comedy: Jikou Keisatsu season 1 and 2 and Odoru Daisousasen. I would have said Kuitan season 1 and 2 but food plays a major role :mrgreen: .
- comedy: Tiger and Dragon (thereLs a little romance, sort of)

As for Dragon Zakura I seen it (liked it as well :))
Interesting enough I have not watched "Stand Up!" but I have heard a lot about it so I guess is about time I give it a go. :mrgreen:

Based on the dramas that you've enjoyed I'm actually not sure if Stand Up! is for you... but heck I HEART that drama :mrgreen:.
Sekai no Chuusin no wo Aisakebu was beautiful (teary kind of highschool romance. Ayase Haruka♥) and H2 was nice too (Satomi Ishihara!!! ♥ and the theme song was lovely). I totally forgot about Yamada Takayuki's high school dramas :P. I enjoy watching him in Waterboys 1. Another drama is Papa no Musume no Nanokan. I haven't seen that one yet but heard lots of good things about it.

hmmm.. just remembering back all those sweet high school dramas make me want to watch an angsty drama instead :hehe:

Heheh, I'm giving it a go to see how it turns out.

H2, already seen it (liked it) Same goes for "Papa to Musume no Nanokakan" hehe. As for "Sekai no Chuushin de, Ai wo Sakebu" I watched a few minutes of the first episode when it was first getting subbed however, I never completed it (seemed a bit predictable at first but I might have to check it out again) I hear is very depressing though, and I'm not sure is what I need right now hehe (A "My Boss My Hero" type would be great hehe).

:hehe: I hope you'll end up liking Stand Up! Its full of crack. Yasuko to Kenji got that MBMH feel to it and Yamada Taro Monogatari is uber cute. There's even a couple of races for food like in MBMH.:mrgreen:
Enjoy!

Is there any other drama with brothers as main leads?? I've watched:

Iirc, Glass no Kakeratachi had a shot of Kokubun Taichi's ass. Lipstick had a shot of Kubozuka Yousuke's. Or did the OP just want female nudes? :mrgreen: :beaten:

Don't get me started.

It's not a drama, but look for a movie called "Man, Woman and the Wall"

It has Sora Aoi in it. 'nuff said ;)

Yup. :sweat:

How could we forget Abe Hirose's exposure in the 1st ep of Kekkon Dekinai Otoko?

Somehow, I don't think that's what the person is looking for.
