Thanks for that link, bunnywabbit. I'm an impatient fan too. xD

I liked the preview for episode five at the end.
It's leaving me in suspense! <3

You are very welcome. =) I found that through a HYD livejournal. Pounced on it like cat. haha AND THE preview! MAN! SO completely cliffhanging!

Also a good song =) "plasticine porters with looking glass ties"? Yup... hallucinogenic... I still can't believe that they didn't do the LSD acronym to the title on purpose.

People probably know this already but I've been involved in Hana Yori Dango for years and never quite got the meaning of the title, Boys over Flowers. I kinda just took it as is, like those Japanese songs that are "translated/transposed" to be in English and make absolutely no sense! (or maybe thats just me)

ANYWAYS, here's the meaning behind the title if there's anyone else there that's curious:

The series' title, Hana Yori Dango (literally "Boys before Flowers"), is a pun on a Japanese saying, "Food before Flowers" (‰Ô‚æ‚è’cŽq, more exactly "dumplings rather than flowers", see Dango "’cŽq"). "Food before Flowers" refers to the fact that food, being more practical and more necessary to survival, should be chosen over flowers, something pretty but not essential to life (and the real reason most people today attend Hanami). The author furthers the pun by changing the kanji of the title to mean "Boys over Flowers" (‰Ô‚æ‚è’jŽq, "Boys over Flowers"?), implying that boys, like food, maybe are a necessity to life rather than a luxury like flowers. Note that "Boys" (’jŽq, "Boys"?) is normally read danshi (‚¾‚ñ‚µ, danshi?), but the furigana force the reading "Dango" (‚¾‚ñ‚², "Dango"?)

MatsuJun is such a good actor

hmm.. nothing this soon i don't think. youtube if you befriend the right people send the videos to you the moment that THEY have it.

Dailymotion had episode 4 the earliest. Like... two days after the episode showed in Japan, Blaice had a subbed version of it. Not sure who subbed it. The earliest on a video site i think would be on monday at the earliest.
