Ruri no Shima

Anyone else watching this new drama? doinkies watched the first ep subbed a few weeks ago. It's quite good! Sanae is a big DOINK though.

Ep 2 subbed will be released on the third! SQUEE! doinkies can't wait! ^^

I can't wait either, Manami chan kawaii desu yo!!! :bonk:

can anyone give me a synopsis of it? thanks!

SPOILERS

but it seems that they have nothing else to talk about anymore, almost the all the people in the island were included in the past few episodes, now left Yutaka...... :naughty: more Yutaka~

END OF SPOILERS

well the theme song is nice, this is one of the better drama of this season.....
and koishi manami looks hot in this drama, cool sensei.... :beaten:
maybe the Ruri girl will win best actress or sometin.....but shinohara ryoko did a great job in Anego too.....

linco, here's a synopsis of Ruri no Shima. ^^

Thumbs up!
Excellent heartwarming drama.

doinkies watched the second ep this morning...

Ruri no Shima SPOILERS (highlight to see) wrote:Angsty!Ruri! Although I guess I can't blame her...it will be interesting to see Ruri grow from being a selfish doink to a kind-hearted girl.

Ah, I can't wait for the next ep!

It's only the synopsis of the first chapter.

I've also watched up to No. 6, since the store hasn't brought new episodes this week. It's fast becoming my favorite dorama of the year so far. Notice how Manami Konishi goes back to being a bad girl in her return to NTV (she played an antagonist in Shin Hoshi no Kinka).

I'm rooting for Narumi to win it. Shinohara hasn't impressed me this time.

Groink, thanks for the synopsis, I always thought Manami could play a bitch, I can't wait to see this!!!

lol, but not that bitchy compare with shin hoshi no kinka.....she just abit 'cool'....

This show is getting better as every week goes by.
You can easily relate to the characters in this show and Ep.7 is so sad and depressing :shamefulcry: .

I can't wait to see more of the remaining episodes.

It's too bad they're only doing 10 episodes... It's just not enough!

Ratings aren't doing that well, ep9 at 9.3%.

This is the same timeslot as Gokusan 2 previously and

has triple the audience :nut:

I was curious, but are there any sort of romantic pairings in this series?

Husband and wife: Ogata & Mitsuko Baisho (who play Ruri's foster parents) and Katsumura & Nishiyama (these two are still young to be considered a romantic couple).
Unmarried couple: Igawa & Kashu.

Oh thanks for the reply. I was hoping that there would be something between
Takenouchi Yutaka and Konishi Manami. :hehe: (maybe that's odd?)

SPOILER:

SPOILERS END

I think I posted something on Yutaka's own thread about him and the kid, didn't I? But then again, reading it you know how it will go.

The show is way better than the ratings suggest.

Japanese viewers tried the same crap with Bara no Jujika so I'm not surprised.
