Hmm. It was a month or two ago. I read something about jdrama and was interested in it. I didn't know where to start so I checked some threads at d-addicts for recs, than I was directed here and found Gokusen and Beach Boys a good place to start. Now I can swear that Gokusen was the first one I saw but I do have my doubts. Didn't I finished downloading Beach Boys first? :headscratch:
It was wayyyyyy back when I was 8 yrs old. I don't if anyone remembers a drama called - Moero Attack! (I don't know if I spelled it correctly :sweat: )
I don't know who was starring but I'm very sure for the actors/actresses in the drama, their time would be up already. The main character was Chun.
That was in late 80s. About a volleyball team with too many fancy tactics (imagine doing a somersault before doing a smash) though I love it anyway. It got me hooked on volleyball, and it got me hooked on J-drama. I even skipped extra classes for that drama :hehe:
for me it was gto. i watched lots before, but it was the one that got me really into jdo. i just loved takashi and nanako, and also yosuke. but i loved shun the most. noburo being bullied was just kawaii!
Summer Snow, when it was the JDrama series of the week on D-addicts, last summer :victory: :victory:
Actually my first drama is an episode of Water Boys I watched on JSTV^^
The first drama I got hooked on was 1 Litre of Tears... but my first ever japanese drama I watched and liked was Love Generation dating back years ago.
My first drama was Densha Otoko, a good sentimental comedy even if the love story is completely caricatural. Actors are perfect in their roles and made me laugh a lot. An hilarious drama which convinced me to watch another ones.
sutaa no koi around 3 years ago, and never stopped watching dorama until now. The only constraint in Indonesia is very difficult to have dorama, most of the dramas are Korean / Taiwan. :shamefulcry:
hmmm, my first dorama was Stand Up!! about year ago.. I really got hooked, watched all the eps in 2 days i guess :mrgreen: After that Ive been watching doramas like crazy
I don't remember the name, but the first dorama I saw was this Hiru-dora or maybe a rerun that I saw during '93 or '94 summer break. It was about some guy in university falling in love with some girl, but he already has a GF.
First one that I remember and love is Coach in '96. I used to play baseball a lot, and this dorama really got me into it. I left Japan soon after that, and if it wasn't for this series, I probably won't be still watching dorama now.
Hana Yori Dango... this past summer/fall. I've been a huge fan of the anime and manga. Then I kinda stopped watching foriegn stuff for a while... When my friend told me about HYD... I freaked out and had to see it IMMEDIATELY...
It was so good too! but short. Luckily I hear a sequel is in the making! YES! But since then I've been hooked on JDramas... I'm actually watching Shinsengumi! right now. I love the Shinsengumi and was really excited to hear they made a taiga drama about them. It's really good too... maybe not for everyone though. You probably have to like taiga's... :)
My first Japanese drama would be Power Offices Girls...very funny....really liked it. However, I didn't have enough money then to buy more titles..so I stopped watching for quite some time. Then a local tv station aired some good ones like Pride and Waterboys. Ever since then, I got hooked to J-dramas!
