i like jerry
he's not that bad
he did his best ah....><

heh i like jerry too, but jun isnt bad either, his cruel face suits domyouji pretty well, i like the innocent bad little boy in jerry when he gets moaded by saying the word wrong hehe anyway, to each his own right? no need to say which is better guys.. :rolleyes:

there's a different between meteor garden and hyd that i noticed, taiwan's F4 was masculine and big in size...and japan's F4...a lil bit skinny (izzit because of the wearings?) :crazy:

lol...HYD dont need alot of PR because its a sure hit with all those fans..its got manga/anime fans, jun fans, shun fans, nanako fans and not to forget the drama fans!!! woah thats a lots of fans...

well theres a lot of differences, like if you notice the clothes in both-- both have a very different image of what is "high class." seems that the clothes in HYD are more of what we're used to as being "dressy" and "classy," at least in the states... like the nice shirts, sweaters, pants... tho guys here dont really wear tight pants like that :sweat:... but alot of them are really NICE-- like when jun is chasing her in the streets, his outfit is really nice there. i like it.

differences could also be attributed to the time periods during which each was made, and also the diff cultures that are interpreting the stories... like even their houses and domyoji's rooms are SOO different if u compare them... like the nice dark wood paneling when jun and them are playing mahjong vs. jerry's flowery bed in MG...

hehe yea im actually not THAT particular to detail, but i just asked one of my professors if i could do a project comparing and contrasting HYD in manga, anime, MG, and HYD and she said YES!!!!!! its like an open project because this class is just one of those fun elective classes and we can do the project on ANY topic in east asian culture... and she said it sounded like a cool idea! YAY! b ut im not exactly sure what im gonna do... like what position im gonna take.... hmm... any ideas? :woot: im so excited.. first prject that im excited to work on!!!!

he grace :D

hmm.. I should watch MG as well.. I wanna do all this comparing stuff too. lol

haha... I never really liked MG... haha

Jusy my opinion so don't flame me... the guys couldn't act... It seemed so emotionless...... (But Ken was hot...haha I saw him from another drama before I saw MG... so it wasn't because of MG that made me like him...haha)

Anywyas.. Back to HYD....


btw... that's a cool topic........... haha... Great excuse to rewatch the anime, and MG and re-read the manga....haha

actually the truth is, yamapi and kame (kattun) are like a hit in japan/asia right now. even without their new drama, they are already all freaking over the place!! mag covers, tv commercials, billboards, posters, etc... i was in japan twice this year, for arashi concert (same time as their new cd launch) and just last month for ohno's butai! and guess what, jun/arashi is like super low profile compared to kt - i mean it's like SERIOUS guerilla marketing!
the propertion is like one mag cover of hyd vs 10 mag cover of kattun/nobuta... :sweat:

it's not truely about hyd having more fans, just that kame + yamapi =more popular = sells more mags... :grumble:

whoa!! he rilly has a lil bit looks like vanness...its just the hair make him looks different.. :sweat:

Hi Fybabe, I also wondered about why there was "KATTUN and YamaP diarrohea" (to put it metaphorically) in all the mags now, and I figured is cos Shuji and Akira are a limited edition unit and JE wants to milk as much as possible out of them in as short a time period as possible.... Kinda like trying to get a higher rate of return on their investment cos their investment period is shorter.... (sorry I am in finance so think of it in financial terms). Seems like the short term play is working cos Seishun Amigo recorded over 5m in sales. I actually like that song. So I was one of those 5M that contributed to JE. :hehe: :hehe:

As for Kattun, I think they could be debuting soon and that is why their profile has been increased recently. They are supporting the volleyball tournement or something right?

Yah, but I agree, i have to go thru about 10 pages of Akanishi and gang and YamaP and gang before coming to Arashi in the recent issues of jpop magazines. Hopefully with Wish, Arashi will be front page again...

for all who loves tsukasa and tsukushi!!!!
here's something a china fan did with the 3 eps of hyd!!
it's really really really great!!
the fan's name is ‹ÕŽq iqin zi).
and this is part one. she promises to do up part 2, 3, 4, etc... in future!!!
