It wasn't made because the studio said it was unfair.

Tryingh to start another dorama, voice, I hope it'll be good, any feedback guys? I decide to watch it cause satomi is pplaying there ^^

I find it a bit boring because the cases are.. umm.. not as challenging. It is no CSI. Very typical young Japanese trying to discover themselves with the help of friendship... *yawns* BUT the cast are pretty on the eyes. Satomi is especially endearing with lots of adorable yet natural facial expressions.
Looking forward to episode 4 though. Toma flexing his acting skill with angst.

I finished that long ago! It's the movie I haven't seen yet.

On Topic: Finish To Heart... This should be an interesting review to write. I didn't like the drama at all, but I found it enjoyable. Explain that one.

I understand. But then I saw the drama. Wasnt I right? I really do think it is Fukaka's best role. Glad you enjoyed it too.

I can't wait to read your review. This was one of those throwaway dramas to past time when you're really bored. I watched this entire drama on KIKU and it was kind of likeable, but made me feel empty at the end, so I ended up disliking it and I doubt I'd watch it again unless I want to torture myself.

On topic: Episode 2 of Hitotsu Yane no Shita 1.

It's got good NGN subs (with a fansub tweak). Quality's good too (about a B+) since it was groink's DVD (or laser disc) rip. Lemme know if you want it. I still haven't mailed your package yet.

The only drama I watch currently is "Hotelier".

Yume Wo Kanaero Zo

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Yume_wo_Kanaeru_Zo

Just fun. 13 little half hour episodes and I've been gobbling them up like M&Ms.

I watched the original special with Oguri Shun, and it was a good enough set up. But Mizukawa Asami looks like she's having a ball being run ragged by her Indian Elephant Deity/Life Coach.

If I'm not careful this is the kind of show I could go through in a day.

Really?? I feel bad being swayed by ratings... Anything below a 10% is a no-download for me...

If I cared about ratings I'd be watching American Idol instead of JDrama.

But... whatever system works for you.

I never look at ratings... but I won't even look at a show that smacks of being a medical drama.

touche on American Idol.. hahahahahaha... So none of the Team Iryu or that Code Blue or even Nurse's Aoi??

It's beginning to look like good ratings means that the show is a dud... mostly, anyhow.

Not necessarily. It just means they found a cast that appeals to the masses, whether or not the acting is great.

Truth to tell, I downloaded Team Iryu 2 simply because Uchida Yuki was in it. But I thought the show was moronic. I watched a few episodes, fast forwarding through to Yuki's scenes. But that was it.

I have watched a couple of medical dramas in the past. And they're what formed my prejudice. They stink.

It's sort of like having to watch a few Fujiwara Noriko, Fukada Kyoko, or Nagasawa Masami dramas to know that these are actresses to be avoided at all cost.

To be honest, i've never seen a Japanese medical drama (Unless Churasan counts ) because I don't like the genre in English either.
