Hey i recomend theseTv dramas.They are really good and they are the only jdorama i've watched
Liar Game:Nao Kanzaki, an honest college student, receives 100 million yen (about $1,000,000) and an invitation to participate in something called the "Liar Game Tournament". When Nao is easily tricked by her opponent, she turns to ex-convict and genius swindler Shinichi Akiyama for help out of desperation to get the money back. Though Akiyama is reluctant, he agrees to help on the condition that they steal her opponent's money as well, and that he takes half the profits as his reward.

Akiyama succeeds in taking all the money and winning the game for Nao. However, Nao and Akiyama's success at the Liar Game is far from over and each time they think the game is over, they are forced to return again with higher stakes. Though initially unwilling participants, the pair choose to continue in the game in order to discover the true nature of the organization involved and to try to free other participants from the Liar Game.

Kurosagi:Kurosagi is based on a young man seeking revenge on the "shirosagi" (or white swindlers who swindle by defrauding others) by swindling them out of most if not all of their money then sending evidence to the police capable of putting them in prison. Six years prior to the show, Kurosaki's father was swindled out of his money... because of this, his father killed Kurosaki's mother and sister followed by committing suicide himself. Kurosaki then becomes a swindler himself, a kurosagi (The Black Swindler who swindles other swindlers). By doing this he helps the innocent people who got swindled by the culprits and gets their money back. In this whole scheme, Kurosagi is met with a stubborn grad student, pursuing to be a prosecutor.

i'm looking for ANY drama that you think is good from the last year (because i missed out on pretty much everything while i was in japan .. ironically.) i just can't watch anything sad right now .. so a happy ending would be nice!<3
could you help me? :)
19 Nov 2009, 05:10 #4852
^ My two favorite dramas from last year were Ashita Kita no Yoshio and Pandora. But if you need a happy ending, I'd say go with either Seigi no Mikata or Muri Renai
19 Nov 2009, 06:24 #4853
i watched seigi no mikata already, i liked it a lot <3

i also thougt about watching pandora, since the writer of the drama wrote other dramas that i found very good ...

Muri na Renai is really good... Natsukawa Yui shines. :victory:

I'm interested in seeing more Abe Hiroshi dramas...
I've seen the Trick series, My Little Chef, Shotgun Wedding, Egao no Hosoku, Antique, Hero, Change, Dragonzakura, Wedding Planner, Kekkon Dekinai Otoko...

Now, I know he's very prolific... but what other good stuff of his am I missing? Any recommendations? In a lot of these dramas, he has a supporting part, I'd love to see more where he has a bigger part or starring role, like Kekkon Dekinai Otoko.

Shiroi Haru? He's really good in it and the drama centers around his character.

He's in a lot of movies too, but I have only seen Team Batista and Bubble Fiction. He is the male lead in both of them. You may enjoy those.

I was wondering if someone can recommend some of Suzuki Anju's dramas,
apart from Asunaro hakusho and Wakamono no subete. She seemed to have a lot of supporting roles too, so I am looking for one where she got more screen time.

In Koi no Bakansu (1997), she has an important role, although the series is completely dominated by Akashiya Sanma's character.

In Coach (1996), she is part of a team (both literally and figuratively) that has been foisted onto an unwilling protagonist (Asano Atsuko).

In Chonan no Yome 2 (1995) , she is part of a very familiar ensemble cast and gets to speak (fluently too) English.

All three are, to varying degrees, comedies, boasting excellent casts, and are good examples of the quality of dorama produced in the 90's.

I just finished watching Tokyo Friends which I watched mostly because of Eita and didn't really expect much. But I ended up really liking it. I was wondering if anyone could recommend me other dramas like it?

Also Otsuka Ai is so damn adorable!
