Aibou [相棒] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) This is a great series and the actors have excellent chemistry. Despite this scenario (good cop bad cop/smart cop dump cop/straight laced cop crazy cop) has been done many times, this series is refreshing nonetheless.
My only wish was that TV Asahi would put more money into the budget to improve the production values. Sometimes I get the feeling it was shot on a DV camcorder. | Aibou Season 2 [相棒] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) | Aibou Season 3 [相棒3] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) |

Gou ~ Himetachi no Sengoku [江 ~ 姫たちの戦国] Rating: 9/10 Currently airing in Los Angeles and the first few episodes are excellent. | Marumo no Okite [マルモのおきて] Rating: 10/10 (Watched) Funny, heartwarming, emotional, brilliantly written and acted. There is nothing bad I can say about this series other than it is short. The storyline has so much potential and so many avenues in the character relationships that could still be explored. This is the best series I have seen in a very long time. | Orange Days [オレンジデイズ] Rating: 8/10 Haven't watched ALL of it, but the 3 episodes I have watched so far are very compelling. |
