does anyone know where it was stated that seigi no mikata would have 10 episodes?

Shida Mirai is really cute.. i totally love to see her funny expressions in the show.

And Yamada Yu is so freaking irritating... oops.. sorry about that.

anyway, this is the drama which i would say i enjoy most among all the rest in this season, though it is not exactly very fantastic...

Does anyone know who plays Yoshikawa Hiroshi, the younger brother of Yamada Yu's husband (he's the one that wanted to be a photographer in episode 7)?

For me so far (episode 9) a drama

Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:

This drama is really light and funny – Yamada Yu is a bitch in perfection – extremely skinny and with a constantly pissed-off face. I like her - what I mean is, although her persona is written in an exaggerated way, I kind of get her ambitions and I am fully supportive of her refusal to become yet another stay-at-home-no-personality wife. Like in Shomuni, the female characters are strong, in their own ways. Shida Mirai is really lovable and almost on the verge of a nervous breakdown all the time. Hongo Kanata is really cute in this one. Hope the last episode lives up to my expectations and doesn't become all cheesy

At first I didn't like Yamada Yu's character but now I think she's great in this. Mirai Shida is hilarious!!! Like you Esther, waiting for the final episode, hope it doesn't disappoint.

Edit: Congrats on going over 1000 posts Esther!!!

Just finished watching the finale...and.... well, i won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it yet.

ahh~ have not been in jdorama for quite some time! happy to be back. and i'm just wondering why seigi no mikata only has 2 pages????!!!!!

owells~

haha! i finish the show! i would say, i love this best for this season... even though it's not fantastic. yup... same as you chokakoi . haha!

the way the show is brought out is great! a totally different genre as compared to others. hee... and the ending..

Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:

oh.. i cried! yamada yu's tears made me feel so sad. i was thinking .. omg! she has changed to be a better person??? haha! DANG~ same old her!!! oh wells... this shows how perserve this drama is. ahha! and the OS when Shida Mirai was running to the train station. omg~! i love this kinda endings! sums up what is in this drama with touch of kinship. i really like the story. an older sister who wans everything and a younger sister who is willing to give anything. hahaha! GREAT!

looking forward for the next season!

Finally I can read and comment on your spoiler.

So far the funniest drama of the year - agreed not the funniest drama ever but not bad for a soso drama-year 2008.

Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:

I loved that Yamada Yu stays a calculating devil until the last moment . One would think she cared about her sis love life or about the meltdown of her own marriage but no she had it sorted out all along. And she returned to work after her pregnancy - she should be a role model for Japanese women. I think this was the drama which had the most eyes-rolling, binge eating, nervous breakdown scences ever.

currently watching episode 9...

Just finished this one!! Sugoi deshou? Yamada and Shida were great together!!

When they showed her baby, I wouldn't have been surprised if it had horns and a tail!!

I stopped watching after the first episode two months ago, but after reading everyone having a great time with it, decide to try again.

Episode 2 really hit its stride. Everything worked (it was simpler and I knew what to expect perhaps) and I was able to appreciate Yamada Yu's acting and her character. Pretty good choice for those looking for a light-hearted series.

At first I didn't like Yamada Yu's character at all, I just watching for Shida Mirai, but once it all came together, I really liked it.

Same with me... even the Yamada's wickedness were totally annoys me
but she's really doing a great job! same goes to Shida-chan too...
totally as what as i expected from a talented young actress like her.

well if you ask me, I give it 10/10...


i'm currently recommending this dorama to my friends... hehehe...

can't wait for Shida-chan's another project!

Does anyone know what's the title of the instrumental/music played every opening of an episode?

i wanted to watch this series. but i not sure whether its nice or not.
cox yamada yu is acting in this series, and i dont quite like her. but since there is mukai osamu, i might consider it. XDD
