Yay! :victory:

I seriously need some recommendation...
Recently I have finished Proposal Daisakusen, 1 Litre of Tears, Nobuta wo Produce... I am now trying to find a drama which is neither sad (i have shed more than 10 litres of tear when watching 1LOT) nor too serious to understand...

I need a drama which is really funny, easy to understand, hopefully kinda recent (not older than 5 yrs) ...

Please don't ask me to watch Kurosagi, as I have enough of yamapi.
All the dramas beginning with "Hana" I have already watched them, including the SPs.
Also I have already watched whatever I find interesting in the last few seasons, and am already following a few dramas this season...

so... what should i watch???

ps: if it comes with one or two kakkoii guys, it would be better ne.. :sweat:

My Boss My Hero is the best dorama in the world!! all i can say is "watch it, watch it, watch it if you haven't done so yet!"

shall ask minsan again after i finished this.. minsan really have given me lotsa good recommendation! hontou ni arigatoo!

Could someone recommend me some Jdramas? My favorites are Hana Kimi, Ikebukuro West Gate Park, Kekkon Dekinai Otoko, Kimi wa Pet, Nodame Cantabile, Satorare, and Seigi no Mikata. I like interesting characters and a plot that is a bit unexpected and out of the ordinary. Also, I prefer characters who are not high school students, but I'll watch anything good. (Already tried: Antique Bakery, Gokusen, Hana Yori Dango, Tokyo Wankei, Trick.) Thank you in advance!
