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

miyuki- YEAH!! nwo i have an excuse to do this stuff over thanksgiving break, i am SOOO THRILLED!!!! ill basically just keep rewatching and rewatching HYD im sure, at that point...

jeanne- yea u totally should watch MG! well... i dunno tho, cuz im not a big fan of the acting in it :sweat: but it follows the manga very closely... in certain ways. thats also an interesting thing... hehe.

fybabe- thanks for that link... made by a fan? thats soo sweet...

aibakaneko- really!? omg i dont see the resemblance... i think ive seen wayyy too many pics of vann :hehe: :hehe: maybe its cuz of his expression too... haha i dunno :sweat: i dont see it! >.<

strawberrynkiwi- awww, well maybe one day, u know! u'll be able to do it for some presentation or something... hehe im SOOO excited beyond belief...

actually i do need help tho... cuz i hafta make it a short presenttaion (like 8 mins), and i wanted to show some clips even maybe... im not really sure what the presentation has to be, its pretty open ended which is nice, BUT... because of that im havinga hard time finding a specific angle to compare/contrast HYD in the manga, anime, live action, and MG... hmm... so any ideas would be cool! otherwise ill think of a proposal and tell my prof this weekend :woot: hehe im sooo excited ! maybe epi4 will give me some good ideas for the project!

oh man, but if i show clips in class... if ANYONE in the class says anything about jun, they will SOOOOOOOOO feel my wrath :beatyou: mwahahahahahaha!!!!! :victory:

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:

kamepi are real popular...i guess with the pr its overkill...but whoever's popular will sell...its all about money...i guess what i was trying to say is that HYD is an established brand and the main cast are establish too...so even with the minimal PR it will sell/be watched so it can be kept low profile... whereas newer brands need to get the attention... (if we wanna get technical...i'll consider HYD as a cash cow and nobuta as a star..haha that marketing for u...)

see...Nobuta has lower ratings despite its high amount of PR...Doesnt that show HYD is more popular? 1l no namida is a great drama and has less PR, so if NwP didnt have the guerilla PR wouldnt its ratings be similar to 1l no Namida...


btw thanx for the fanvid...very nice...i must comment...

I personally don't care if he's using mascara or not :beaten: As long as he can act that's enough for me to keep on supporting Matsujun!!

I wouldn't say it's MatsuJun's thread but it was my first post there related to him. =)

As for his mascara, it's kind of sad he has to come to this extreme way of doing things...

Because I agree (one more time) he's an excellent actor. =)

Oh, by the way, I heard this is going to be a 2-season drama. True?

same ^^

^^ omg there BETTER be a second season.. it only makes sense if it did... they know people love the story. they know people love the actors and actresses. and it is logically impossible to fit everything into 9 episode... i think that just ruins the story... we need time to grow into the characters

the sub for the 3rd episode is not out yet right XDD, i'm patiently waiting for it before i watch it XDD

and I just finished the manga! :shamefulcry: NOOO! I want more!!! :shamefulcry:

haven't read that anywhere yet...haha

but who knows... if they don't finish all 36 mangas in 10 episdoes....haha

or they might do a special...haha

oh yeah! today's friday!!! but still no subs yet for ep3!! waaaaahhh!!!

no subs for episode 3? maybe you guys can try bt files? the chinese subs are always out very fast. yeah yeah !! i'm ecstatic.. today's friday! and friday spells... HANA YORI DANGO :dancing:

For manga fans:

You think there's any chance Sojiro-Yuki plot will appear in the dorama? I always LOVE this plot in the manga!!^^ I think its one of the important plot in the manga...also important for the development of Tsukasa-Tsukushi's relationship...coz they are bestfriends, afterall...connects alot^^

Spoiler — click to reveal

Esp. the part where Tsukushi force and drag Tsukasa along to spy on Sojiro-Yuki dating, with her...LOL!(vol.20)
I also love the Sara-Sojiro-Yuki love triangle!!^o^ I had tears on my face reading vol.34, when Sojiro said to Yuki, "I will go up there together with Sara tonight," .....awww..... :puppydog: Yuki-chan, totemo kawaii sou.....

I grow to like Shota Matsuda, Sojiro Nishikado's actor. But I cant seem to like the dorama version of Yuki. Yuki in the manga is suppose to be kawaii, good-hearted, big-hearted, innocent and fragile...the actress in the dorama dont have the face for this kinda role. But, hopefully, her acting improve, though. IF this subplot WILL appear in the drama....^^

ahhhhhh its FRIDAY!!!! :dancing: too bad episode 3 subs havn't come out yet... but i heard the subbers are almost finish!!!!!!!! so hopefully it will come out... rewatch episode 3... then watch episode 4!!!!! my ideal weekend :hehe:

but someone did a 17mins teaser for episode 3 on d-addicts... that kept me happy for awhile... can't wait for the whole thing to come out

subs for ep 3 r out!!
ep 4 is also out on sm clubboxes but somehow i cant dl from any of them T_T sux...
