Hello !
I pulled an all nighter watching the 10 episodes of Love Shuffle. I absolutely LOVED the characters and the chemistry between them. I wasn't expecting much but here I am looking everywhere for something as fun to watch.
Can you please recommend something ?

My favorites comedies besides Love shuffle are:
Nodame Cantabile
My boss my hero
Tiger and dragon
Dekichatta kekkon
Mukodono
Papa to musume no nanokakan

Thank you !!

^ Maybe the Kuitan series (1 & 2) or the kooky Jiko Keisatsu series... I thought both were quite enjoyable. :victory:

u might enjoy
SLOW DANCE
Rookies
Last Christmas
Kekkon Dekinai Otoko
Densha Otoko
Propose Daisakusen
and the Kuitan series like bmwracer said above

KAZ :victory:

hi bmwracer

I gave kuitan a try sometime ago but I actually did not go past ep2-3. I kinda thought the comical aspect relied too much on the gluttony of the detective, also each episode seemed to be a standalone story if I recall correctly.

Until now, I actually liked only two police/detective series: Securiy Police and Galileo. I watched episode 1 of Gonzo, it looks interesting too. Maybe I'm too difficult (sumimasen ^^;)

I'll try kooky Jiko Keisatsu, thank you very much for your suggestions!

Thanks for the list!
Indeed I liked Kekkon dekinai otoko and densha otoko quite a lot (I hesistated a little before deciding not to include them in the favorites ^^)
I found that Rookies started interesting but somehow became too cheesy as it went (but I finished watching it).
I'll make sure to check the other series, thx a bunch!

Slow Dance is wonderful. :victory: Top ten for me.

And Kaz made lots of good suggestions!

I would suggest Love Complex for the offbeat storyline that you seem to enjoy.

yeah SLOW DANCE is awesome and if u dont mind watching a really decent dorama from a while back, SUMMER SNOW or Beach Boys is an open option :victory:

offbeat, bull's eye =)
I am tilting to both synopses, Slow dance and Love complex.

Thanks a lot, you people are cool!

Wow, I can't believe I've missed that many hits after all I watched, definitely GREAT news =). Beach boys added on the pending list.
I know Summer snow, it is one of the best romance dramas I have ever seen (I did a good job fighting the tears too ^^). I also liked Hotaru no Hikari a lot (Ayase Haruka is so so so sweet, she remains so in JIN).

BY the way, sorry to put another quesiton, but do you know any dramas with a character close to Sakamoto Ryoma of JIN?

JIN? sakamoto ryoma..u mean Ryoma Den (taiga dorama) with Fukuyama Masaharu?

Oh, that's too bad... I like the food+ comedy + mystery...

Until now, I actually liked only two police/detective series: Securiy Police and Galileo. I watched episode 1 of Gonzo, it looks interesting too. Maybe I'm too difficult (sumimasen ^^;)

Each episode of Galileo was pretty much a standalone story too... I thought the professor's "revelations" in each episode got tiring and sort of ridiculous after a while...

I'll try kooky Jiko Keisatsu, thank you very much for your suggestions!

Hopefully, you'll enjoy that drama more than Kuitan... :fingerscrossed:

Okane ga nai! seems like a good series as well... a bit slow in the release schedule....
had to watch some eps RAW

yeah, that was why I watched it over a long period of time. Still, I liked the characters and their personality flaws a lot =)
