She does a solid job on her dramas, problem is not all of them are all that good except for Dekkon, Triangle and Otousan, actually have always thought she does best in movies, besides Wasabi check out Bubble Fiction, Poppoya or Departures, all really good films.

I've always said she's better in movies than dramas. And yes, Bubble Fiction is hilarious!!

After I wrote that, went looking for a few more movies of hers, grabbing Little DJ right now, that looks real promising, anyone else seen it?

PS- Currently have the Perfect Collection CD on.

Now viewing Hatachi no Koibito, up to episode 3. Okay so far but it seems to be taking it's time building up the storyline which is a fairly simple one anyways, sort of a reunion in it for Akashiya and Morishita from the Sora drama, they've taken their partnership to the next level, now they're married .... but will Masami have a say that they stay that way?

Through three episodes of Detective Conan 2011. It's ok so far. However, I'm really missing Oguri Shun as Kudo Shinichi.

Possibly because I was familiar with the characters and knew what to expect, I liked the sequel better than the first one.

Oh yeah, I've been fortunate to see the sequel too. I enjoyed it as well.

Have you? I have the first on my shelf. Guess it can be put on the To Watch pile.

Just finished Dosokai. The ending was a bit simpliified but I didnt care. I liked it.
The leads, Hitomi and Katsunori were as romantic as one could want. The other supporting cast terrific.

Id recommend.

Nishida Toshiyuki is usually enough of a reason to give a drama a peek, given his acting chops.

The same can be said for Abe Hiroshi... And not just because of his height.

Yeah I like Abe Hiroshi. The most recent work that I've seen him is Shiroi Haru...which I enjoyed.

Marumo no okite: cute

Perfect report: pleasantly surprised considering the reviews. It's a classic easy to watch drama.


Barairo no seisen: excellent so far, probably the best drama of the summer.

Don Quixote: a bit pushy but pleasant to watch.

Hatachi no Koibito, episode 7, was just okay to begin with but has steadily gone downhill, these last few episodes are going to be chore to sit thru.

Episode 9 of Soredemo, , ,. This waiting a month for subs is killing me but it's worth it!!

Once it gets completely subbed I'll probably go back and watch it again.

Through 6 episodes of Detective Conan 2011. It's been descent so far. There's a reasonable amount of depth to the cases, and it's also funny at times. I also like how Shinichi solves the cases and I'm hoping his relationship with Ran goes somewhere by the end. However, at other times it's predictable and Ran's father (played by Jinnai Takanori) is annoying as hell. This drama also confirms for me that Jinnai is a terrible actor.

If I don't like it I just quit.

Saw some of Hotaru No Hikari and trying to decide whether to watch Aikurushi.
It looks interesting.
