Waterboys 2 is basically a clone of 1. It throws in almost the same roles played by different characters. I cant help but feel disappointed when i keep finding blatant similarities to 1. They also made it even more far fetched this time, although its supposed to be a happy go lucky show, i think they kinda overdid it abit.

small spoilers: (eg. 5 main characters/they always go to a bar/2 girls who likes the main character/alot of the moves during the final performance was the same as the first one/even the main theme is reused, albeit rearranged, and i yes prefer the original version of the song used in 1.)

This sequel only beats the first one in one aspect: eye candy. This time the main cast was really good eye candy, beating the first show totally. Other than that, i think the first show beats this sequel in every aspect.. I was touched when i finished seeing the final performance of 1. But not 2. Cos the final performance had too many moves similar to 1. When i saw them for the first time in 1, i thought "YES! they finally DID IT" , but it just isnt going to work when u do it a second time, almost copying moves from the first time.

I would only recommend this if u missed 1, though i would instead just go look for 1. Or u can watch it just for the eye candy. Its really good eye candy though.

This drama had great music, actors, emotional involvement, and i agree that it has great scenery, BUT what i look for in a drama most importantly is the plot and this one had 1 or 2 big loopholes in it. it is a good drama, but i was kinda disappointed as i had definitely seen dramas which are more touching and have a better story than this one. I had high expectations for it after reading the majority of the reviews here but it turned out to be a bit disappointing for me. I was very impressed with the male lead actor though. Really cool acting style throughout the whole show.

The first one was miles better. Even if you didnt watch the first one i wouldnt recommend this. Lame and tries to be a touching show but 9 out of 10 times fail miserably. Only saving grave is tomoya and maybe noriko, but still, a miserable waste of time.

Great jokes, great storyline, interesting characters, touching, abit far fetched at times but mostly bearable. On top of that it has a very very touching ending. True classic you HAVE to watch.

Outrageous humour, unbelievable plot, superb acting + touching moments considering the comedy that it is... I think this show sums up why jdramas are so unique and great. If anyone wanted to start watching jdramas i would recommend them to watch its first. Thats how good it is. So if you havent watched it yet, watch it!!

Takuya was hyper cool in this one. This one had a fair share of humour and twists in it, and it never got boring. The chemistry between takuya and matsu is pretty good in this one... Also loved the ending song (can you keep a secret)

The actors all did pretty good in this show, especially takashi. The music is superb... i believe is a great song, and the brilliant green just rules!! The ending is not really a happy ending, but i felt that it was a good and rather touching one

This show has a good plot, but i think takashi and takeda(the girl's father) were the key elements in making this show good. The music is also good in this show (gotta love the theme song and the instrumental versions of it)

I really loved this show when i watched it. Eguchi was very cool in this show, yasuko also did a good job. Quite some touching moments. The ending was... well i didnt really like it... Eguchi shouldn't have been so cool :)

This is one show i couldn't stop watching. loved the plot and the chemistry between takizawa and yasuko (its not a love story though). Many touching moments. I would say its a must watch.

The modern version of "101 proposals". I loved this drama from start to end. The lead male character Uchimura Teruyoshi may not be much eye candy, but his energetic acting more than makes up for it. This show is touching because of him. His unrelenting determination will surely touch anyone, well at least those who can bear with his looks for a few episodes. This show has humour, love, touching moments all packed together in one. Iijima Naoko and Uchiyama Rina both looked and acted great in the show. And the theme song "not found" sounded fantastic and totally blended in with the show, driving both the plot and emotions on. To anyone who can bear with a non good looking male lead, GET THIS SHOW. You won't regret it.

No doubt this is one of the best storylines ever. The chemistry between dohmoto, koichi, and okina megumi is perfect... not only that, everyone in the show all performed great. This show really shows just how good kinki kids are. Its one of the shows which will make you watch episode after episode to find out what happens next and how it all ends. Everyone should watch this at least once! I rate it as a true classic.
