Finished ep 5 of Scandal it's not going to unseat Ashita Kita as my favorite drama of 2008, but it's still very good!
And, yes, marspeach you did a GREAT job with the subs!!
Watching Koi no Chikara ep 2 now. I should be studying but I'm still waking up. I wonder if I could find someone to work for me tomorrow night. I doubt it though because it's a pretty long shift and it's kind of late notice. I know no one from my location could so it would be a hassle to find people from other stores to do it. I must promise I'll stop after this episode. _________________

Just finished Love Shuffle ep 5. OMG I love this show. I really needed that after a horrible birthday. I can't wait until the next episode. It's going to be a long wait until next week.
I have a cold so watched episodes 2 to 5 in a row yesterday, raw. This series is dialogue ladden, I was a bit worried given my level of Japanese. But all went well and I really enjoy this.
Two (superficial) things to nag about though, not exactly spoilers but you never know.
Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:
- The guy who styled Karina needs to be shot dead. Shorts? On every outfit??? So 2005-2006!
- Tamaki-kun looks horrid - not so much the skininess, but his face. He looks old and wrinkled. Drugs? Anorexia? Illness? Take better care of yourself, ne!

I don't see how what you posted are spoilers at all! It has nothing to do with the story. But I agree about Tamaki. I read an Oricon poll about the top 5 actors girls want to give chocolate too and he's in 3rd. No wonder, they probably want to fatten him up! He does look at least 10 years older than he is (not even 30!).
My biggest annoyance with the show is Mei. I find all the other characters interesting and engaging to watch but she's just so dull and boring. _________________
Saw the first 7 eps of Akai Ito, the story is pretty good, it's darker than your typical high-school romance show, dealing with drugs among other things. The acting isn't good, though. Especially the main actor, he always has this look on his face, that I don't know how to describe it, but it's just always the same.

So many shows, so little time for me. Finished watching the first two episodes of Rescue and the first episode of Mei-chan no Shitsuji (aka the Toksatsu special). Going to be starting Voice in the very near future (ie when they finish downloading). Waiting on the subs for Love Shuffle, and continuing through Bloody Monday on my times in between.
Still trying to weigh out the shows for the rest of the season so far, think I've got enough for now though. Slight on-topic, loving the new series of Kamen Rider Decade too, fanservice if anything.

Finished Scandal. That's what I hate about good dramas, you want to keep watching them and get done before you know it.
Pretty good, the final episode was a little bit of a letdown. Don't know much about Drama awards, but if I had a vote, Kaori Momoi would get mine for best supporting actress.

Up to epi 3 of Tomorrow. Turning into a major melodrama. Looks like the working title was probably "1-in-a-Million Chance Operation Every Week". Not a good sign.

I agree. I was disappointed because the first episode was so promising. Seems like a dangerous hospital to go to if the whole cast ends up needing an operation...
Topic- No dramas watched today because of midterm studying and work. _________________

Because I was oblivious on a search last night, found and then watched the HYD movie last night. It was alright I suppose, save for the fact it didn't FEEL like the show at all (more like the actors FROM those shows going on vacation).

Mei Chan no Shitsuji eps 4 and 5 (gradually working through it as it's released I love the epic cheesiness of this it's overwhelmingly fluffy, but I can deal with that )
Code Blue Episodes 1 and 2 (actually really enjoying this, started it today after being pestered by a couple of friends ^^; will definitely finish this one ^0^) _________________
