I'd say Nodame, Densha Otoko & Tiger & Dragon are the best bets out of all these.

Can someone recomend some doramas with young guy/older woman relationship???
Most of the times i really enjoy those doramas more than the normal love relationship, for example Love Vacation and Love Generation, the doramas were very alike and KimuraLs character in both of them was almost the same but i found Long Vacation much more enjoyble.

The ones iLve watched so fare are:
Long Vacation(Kimura Takuya/Yamaguchi Tomoko)
Over Time(Sorimachi Takashi/Esumi Makiko)
Majo no Joken(Takizawa Hideaki/Matsushima Nanako)
Kimi Wa Petto(Matsumoto Jun/Koyuki)
Boku Dake no Madonna(Takizawa Hideaki/Hasegawa Kyoko)
Sore wa, Totsuzen, Arashi no you ni(Yamashita Tomohisa/Esumi Makiko)
Anego(Akanishi Jin/Shinohara Ryoko)
Sapuri (Kamenashi Kazuya/Itoh Misaki)
Oishii Puropozu(Koide Keisuke/Hasegawa Kyoko)

I donLt know if Densha Otoko(Itoh Atsushi/Itoh Misaki) fits the profile but at least it had that same feeling.

You HAVE to watch Golden Bowl! :victory:

Around 40, Long Love Letter, Slow Dance, News no onna (kind of ...), Unfair, Manhattan Love Story, and Love Revolution (albeit one-sided) - I liked MLS, Unfair and LLL best but they are not romance strictly speaking.

I think you will enjoy Love Evolution. Suga played by Fujiki Naohito is a bit younger than Esumi's character.

^ That's Love Revolution.
27 Apr 2009, 04:32 #4407

Back again for recommendations~

I'm looking for shows similar to: Hana Yori Dango, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e, LIFE, Nobuta wo Produce, Nodame Cantabile, Proposal Daisakusen. I'm not looking for dramas with similar plots, but with a similar aura... so I guess something that feels modern/pop/manga-ish?

I'm also interested in watching a historical drama.

Are Yoshitsune or Densha Otoko worth watching?

Thanks in advance! ^_^
29 Apr 2009, 06:19 #4409
^ Yoshitsune would be your absolute last choice for a Taiga to watch... A year's worth of mediocrity. :bleh:

Well, the Top 50 at this site aren't the Best 50, just the most popular 50.... And that's a big difference.
