Originally, the concept behind the best JE performance was to separate the best actor - best supporting actor nominees from the best JE performance to give the other actors a chance in the other two categories because I did forsee a slew of JE people hogging both categories. I created the best JE performance to avoid that, but to no avail. I guess I should have explained it better back then. My bad.
Given that, we're looking for the best actor among the JE actors who perfomed this year for the Best JE performance.
I hope I answered your question.
yes it does...but i'm still stuck in my dilemma since both yamap and ryo are JE... :sweat:
ahh~ so hard to decide :banghead:

Of course the awards can't be perfectly fair. Nothing is fair in this world. Who is to judge which actor has the best performance? I personally dont like the idea of 5 "professional" judges coming 2gt and giving out awards for whomever they choose. That's why voting this way is more interesting. whoever has the most votes, wins. It simply means that more ppl think that actor is better. "Majority rules" u know :bow:
Besides, if u really believe that a drama, or an actor, did a great job, then u should vote for it/him. Who cares if he will obviously win or lose? It's not just a matter of losing or winning. It is the matter of ur opinion and ur support for that drama/actor. So in the last page sm1 said s/he wouldnt vote simply becuz that candidate has no chance anyway. Please dont think like that. Ur vote COUNTS!
Again let's make this event fun and meaningful to everyone. So please stop criticizing it (if u keep on criticizing it no one will dare have new ideas next time.) I think lilmissfab and sawadasmile are doing a good job, and we should thank them for having such a great idea. Suggestions are fine but it should be up to them whether they want to adapt it or not. (I personally dislike the idea of having an award every season :sweat:)
ok EVERY1! VOTE! :naughty:
^well said
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING YOUR TIME AND EFFORT IN ORDER TO DO THIS FOR US!!! IT"S FUN!! AND IT SPREADS JDORAMA LUV AND FANDOM ^____^
thanks for the encouragement, guys, because it did take a lot of work.. but the idea should be accredited to littlemissfab because it WAS solely her idea. :) im just helping because i love photoshop and a lot of the dramas nomimated (tho it did end up being more work than i had anticipated.. but thats ok)
alrite ill finish the text version of the noms and post it right now, but PLEASE try and look @ the screencaps on pg12 cuz it took a loooooooot of work ... :hehe: thanks guys!
and please please, im sorry if it seems unfair but if it does and u have a particular opinion then u should VOTE... this is just how nominations turned out... personally im having trouble choosing too so im holding off on voting for a few days too. :)
littlemissfab, hope ur enjoying LA!!! im so jealous.. tho its pretty warm here in NY for winter :)

HYD? :rofl: hahaha...well it's not the worst drama. But people just get so giddy about it because of matsujun and oguri shun? I watched this drama and I don't hate it at all it was a pleasant viewing and lighthearted too. The actors are great but it's not the best drama of the year.
Nothing is fair in the world of judgement. Not all people will be satisfied with the result. I did not vote because I don't watch too many dramas this year so I could not give a fair judgement. I like JE boys but when they suck I will say they suck. :hehe: Yup, I'm just being objective.
Come to think of it Fashion Statement of the Year for Nobuta wo Produce should include the scene of Akira & Shuuji painting on their pants "stupid" & "show-off" after all it did start a fashion trend (at least in the show) :) . Or perhaps the scene whereby the leads wore pink/green girlie outfits. Oh well can't change it now.
==========================================
I didn't really hate HYD. Actually liked it a lot until I saw it being #14 on Top 50 Dramas.
Something wrong when a show that, IMHO, lacks originality, emotional fullfillment, depth of story and acting beating Sekai no chuushin, Kamisama and Nobuta. Incidently Nobuta is basically the same story about a girl overcoming bullying from her classmates but done in a much more creative way. I don't know I should start a "I hate HYD" thread or something ;)
the list does look boring without the pics ne.. :bonk:
tho' i couldn't manage to see all the screencaps (streamyx = broadband terunggul :grumble: YEAH RIGHT! :shakehead: ) the pics does help you make your choice.
nice job sawadasmile :victory:
totally agreeing to atheon
...but then those are really the best in this year imo, this year started off with bunch of 'not so good' dramas and end up with alot of great ones, so far i like all the fall dramas i've watched......
Just hope that all the voters out there please watch all or maybe most of the dramas first before voting.........not many anyway, maybe around 12?
i certainly enjoyed the fall season dramas & they deserve to be pick as finalist. (including HYD :beaten: --> overhyped but highly entertaining nevertheless). Got to get my hands on Densha + H2 + Tiger & Dragon before voting. I've watched bits of Yoshitsune (quite good) but not planning to watch Slow Dance & Ruri no Shima.
but the drama that you MUST DEFINATELY WATCH before voting is Ichi Ritoru no Namida :beaten: <-- guilty of campaigning

haha I agree with u on that one. But instead of "I hate HYD" we could hav smth like "HYD is overrated" (which it actually is :sweat: ) its a should see drama but not all that great compared to Engine or NwP or 1 litre of tears :)
and sawadasmiles the screencaps were awesome :woot: i didnt think that u guys would have it... but when i saw it on page 12, it reminded me a lot of those dramas that i have seen ^^ very nice job :hehe: (ur in NY? me too... dang its like 50 degrees here in NYC and it's December :banghead: :banghead: )
anyway its true that fall season dramas are really better than the earlier ones... so it shouldnt be a surprise to see them taking over all the nominations :bow:
Alright I take it back. HYD isn't evil & a eyesore it is just way way overhyped :)
Usually I download most of my dramas based on the Top 50 ranking. For the most part it has been helpful. Since I didn't see Tiger & Dragon on the list was wondering if it is any good? Kinda don't wanna download it just for voting/watching while there are still some on the Top 50 that I haven't downloaded/watched yet. So for those who saw it where would you rank Tiger & Dragon on the Top 50 list?
thanks sunmoon & ainangst & minna for ur support :) and thanks to littlemissfab who also spent countless time screencapping and for counting all the noms and all that! :woot: fun fun. :hug:
yeah, HYD is overrated.. as much as i love it, and i may have voted for it (b/c i saw that the others i liked had enough noms :sweat:), i dunno about my final vote. it wasnt the most touching or most novel idea but it was done well (tho too short in my opinion)... and some of the acting was superbbbb :thumbsup:
oooh yes ur in NYC too! i'm in long island right now for winter break :victory: back homeee... went to the city last night and it was very nice- not cold at ALL!! really amazing weather :woot:
anyway theres also the fact that a lot of people joined jdorama because of fall dramas, and perhaps thats also a factor in why alot of the fall dramas got to the finals... but i dont mind, im glad about a lot of nominations. :) but i will finish watchin more dramas before voting i think!
ok first of all, i love hyd with a passion, and i'd love to see nobuta, but YES @sunmoon that was me who said the person im gonna vote doesnt count, what if i say i vote for joe odagiri, that guy did shows and movies including international more than 5x this year, would he win? NO i dont think so, i just know it.. so whatevers.. like i said, hyd x nobuta will obviously get the most nominations because of fanbased! so why waste my time voting when hes not gonna get something? its not like hes getting a trophy or anything.. well goodluck, whoever wins.
and i am speaking from my opinion, dont tell me any crap words like, "any vote counts" it seems like you dont accept any of our opinions, and it 'doesnt count' whatever we feel towards the mainstream categories.. cuz thats just basically the same thing.
Calm down people. I know that freedom of speech is applied here so I think the best that we could do is to respect everyone's opinion. Let's not bash one another that could spark a debate here or something :sweat: . Like MixxDreamer said earlier, we don't need to throw slippers at each other. So, lets cool it guys. Peace out :victory:
IMO, the purpose for awards like these is such that when, in the future, we all look back on the 2005 dramas, the majority of us can point to the winner and say, "That's a drama that we enjoyed and can heartily recommend." It may not be every single person's absolute favorite, but it's probably safe to say that it would be high up on that list of favorites for a lot of people.
So... don't worry guys, and just vote. Show your support by voting, because really, everyone worked hard to bring these dramas (and this poll ;)) to us! Even if your favorite isn't on the poll, then vote for the next one you think most deserves the award. Those of us who can't vote yet are awaiting the results! :victory:
just to clarify myself, i dont really feel like voting not because of the popularity or not.. whatever, its because we dont really need to., as its not mandatory.. i wasnt trying to attack anyone, i apologize if anyone took it the wrong way, i could be blunt at times, and yes its true this is just for fun, and im looking forward to see the final result but please respect our opinions, the same as we respect yours. though i admit, im disappointed to see hydxnobuta everywhere, like i said, it makes the other shows less worthy, the hardcore viewers knows what im talking about.
I agree with Jenn here. I really appriciate other dramas other than HYD and Nobuta. I think those two are just overrated. And those two dramas are soo typical. Usual bullying, guy helps like a hero...I need something better than that. And my voting, what I voted for was outnumbered so it's like no point voting. It's like all in one set. one opinion won't beat many.
this award is more like 'viewers' choice award to me.
we're not professional judges who watched all the 50 or i donno how many dramas this yr and so impossible to vote fairly... i've only watched 3 dramas this year, but still can't stop me from voting - says alot about this award thingy ^^. and you can't force me to watch some dramas myself even though alot of folks rave about them coz maybe there're some actors/actresses in it that i don't like... subjectively - i admit.
i think the original organizers started this with a good intention. next year will be better i think... with a wider base of voters...
besides, when i look at the votes for the top artists in this forum... it's really fan-based anyway... alot of 'ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! he's/she's sooooooooo gorgeous!' etc... eg. i always thought kimutaku was over-rated as an actor... lol but, you can't deny he's an icon of modern japan.
as for the talk on hyd. yes, it's enjoyable, yes, it's cliche, yes, it's unreal, yes, it's got alot of fans even before the japanese live action came out, but i think folks voted for it for different reasons, it's definitely not the best drama i've watched by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar - not even matsujun can save the low-IQ plot... but even i voted for it in this forum just coz i think it did a better job than mg. :hehe:
and even when i think that yasashi jikan was a much more substantial, matured, thought provoking drama than hyd, hyd is still much more enjoyable by far in it's 'entertainment' value. <----------this is a personal comment.
EDIT:
hey, i got a suggestion.
maybe in future we shouldn't vote on this thread and just pm the organizers. coz folks who originally wanted to vote are discouraged seeing that their favs may lose.
we could just discuss or chat about what we think are great this year here instead.
