JDrama Recommendations

Refer to this thread, parhaps? http://jdorama.com/viewtopic_70.htm

thanks Pemu

if you like GTO, you can try Gokusen. a female version of GTO...much much better than naomi (a bad version of GTO).

i am currently watching golden bowl which is not too bad...
much better than psycho doctor and remote...

Gokusen > GTO

=P
Somehow I know Pemu will reply on this.

Well
I want to buy some drama..and this is the list
-Sleeping forest
-Moto kare
-Time limit
-Double score
-Cheap love
-Die streen
-Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi
-Konna watashi ni dare ga shita/ Who did such me
-Toshiie Matsu 1 & 2
-Itsumo futari de
Is it all good drama? or not..?? or is there any better drama to add in this list..Ur opinion?? :mrgreen: Preciate it :D

Toshiie Matsu looks boring to me!
maybe u can buy good luck! or beauty and the beast??

Beauty and da beast I'll check that out Arigatou na Michi :mrgreen:
Wanna buy Toshie cause want to look Hideyoshi dono with my own eyes :mrgreen:

looked through your list...
sadly, i've only watched 2 of the shows from your list...
Nemureru Mori and Sora kara furu ichioku no hoshi... (both being TK shows... :mrgreen: )

these 2 shows are good... rather dark and mysterious, a little unconventional... i liked them both... and it's not cos' they are TK shows... maybe jus a little.... :P
should check them out... if you like mystery type of shows.....

as for Beauty and the Beast... i'm in the process of watching it.... so far so good.... enjoyable... Nanako looks soooo good (as usual)....

When u mentioned "Die-streen"...errr...pardon me but i'm a little confused. U mean "Die Sternhaler" issit??
Cos i would recommend it! I only watched Part 1 though like years back and that's the reason for my crush on Yutaka Takenouchi! hehe! :hehe: But that dorama is soooo sad i'll bet 2 cents you'll finish up 1 kleenex box!

And as for "Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi"...This is NOT-TO-BE-MISSED!!! It's my Ultimate No.1 fave Takuya's dorama! I cry a bucket at the ending. It's not just about Takuya's acting here but the whole storyline and flow was superb!

I'm also looking for Sleeping Forest with eng subs still. So i'm reserving my own opinion to myself.

As for other dorama...Have u tried Beautiful Life & Good Luck? These should not be missed too! Or perhaps trying the latest one "Hotman" by Takashi Sorimachi?? I bet it's a thumbs up!

Sleeping forest is a cool drama (but quite predictable :) ), Cheap Love hmm...It's kinda dark but ok, Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi..well..the ending is a bit disturbing. Hey..dude you can go to this site for a reference
www.nt2099.com/DORAMA
That site has pretty good information about Jdorama review.

By the way, if you like dark drama go watch "Face" starring Yukie Nakama and Takahashi Katsunori or for something completly different go watch Long Love Letter starring Yosuke Kubozuka and Tokiwa Takako or something completly wacky and cool try "Kisarazu Cat's Eye" starring Junichi Okada and Sho Sakurai :D

to tell you the truth.. i didn't like sora kara at the start.. and for me.. one time of watching that show is enough.. it's not that it wasn't good but just that i wouldn't want to relive it.. while for other shows like rookie! i would want to watch it again and again.. because i know they won't die in the end.. :sweat:

Wohoo, thanks for the great work Prince :thumbsup:

I'm going to throw in a cheap plug for DOUBLE SCORE. If you like cute boys trying to play cops with hokey special effects... DS is the way to go. It had Manabu Oshio and Sorimachi Takashi *_* They're so pretty, and the look so cool as a crime fighting duo!

does anyone know if there any other series that is similar to GTO and salaryman?

Gokusen is rip off GTO, female version, but IMO it's better, more action ;)
