I hope she gets GOOD leading roles, not like Kirakira, I'm sad to say. :puppydog:

lol I'm the only one in this world who liked Kirakira :shakehead:

The middle 3 episodes with Papaya Suzuki weren't too bad, I thought it had a chance up to that point, especially with Ryo coming up. Wrong again. :bonk:

[image][/list:u] So I told Manami that Triky is back, and she said, "You mean the son of a bitch that thinks I'm an alien!!!" :sweat:

Better crank up the oxygen output on your tank, then. ;)

I don't get the CM at all, but that full-face shot of her staring at the TV is to die for.... :bonk: :bonk:

This one?

Totemo kawaii desu!

Yup, that's the one :smitten:

It's no secret that i'm a fan of long hair, and I loved Manami-chan's hair long, but I reckon she looks even better with short hair :)

Oh yeah. :bonk:

Now if some studio would give her a great role to play... :sweat:

well basically from what i could gather she's watching this old police detective drama...and the cop (NAMED KURODA) is interrogating the suspect they arrested and then another cop comes in and says "KURODA the boss is calling for you.....then she manami starts about it...and mulls over in her head, "KUROBUTA from Yokocho is calling you" so she gets on the JR and heads to Kagoshima, Japan where they are famous for KUROBUTA....

and at the very end the detective tells the suspect, "you must be hungry, huh?"

basically it's a wordplay joke.

Okay.

Sometimes knowing is worse than not.

Back to ogling Manami-chan.

I guess...but it's nice to know what's being said instead of always relying on subs, too. ;)

I wish...call me a showoff when I can watch doramas without subs....a commerical i might be able to handle but that about it.....

it only reminds me of how much i would actually like to be able to understand more...oh well..having said that...listening to doramas has helped preserve what little comprehension i have left.

Sou desu. Your comprehesnsion beats mine hands down, so i tips me hat to you. I hope that one day I can listen to Manami-chan speaking and understand her clearly ;)

The only reason I understood her, and not fully at that...is that CM has very little dialogue and she's thinking to herself stream of consciousness style, so it's not even an active conversation.

If you can read kanji it helps too. As Tu said it was a word play thing - Manami-chan was kind of hypnotized by the words and took the new JR line to Kagoshima for some black-haired pig cuisine.

Incidentally Kagoshima is Manami-chan's home prefecture.
