Just watched Buzzer Beat and i was really entertained by it, the plot is super cliché and the acting is average but at the same time i was really into the plot, can�Lt really explain why...maybe Kitagawa Keyko�Ls presence lolol.
My favorite character was Yoyogi(Nobuaki Kaneko), the guy was just awesome and i loved his change of character through the story. Yamapi stills sucks at acting but at least in here he didn�Lt have an hard part so he was able to pull it fine. And i become a fan of Kitagawa Keiko(first time i saw her lol).
Now i�Lm watching Hotman and so far i�Lm really enjoying it, probably the best perfromance i saw from Sorimachi Takashi.

Although I could never figure out why everyone in this picture is smiling EXCEPT Sorimachi??
He's smiling, kind of, Yada Akiko had a similar expression. He looks a bit creepy though.
JIN episode 9 was pretty good. Unlike almost everyone, this series is only just above average for me. Nakatani Miki's acting was really good and thought-provoking in this episode.

I think I am going to watch one or two episodes of Liar Game season 2. I know what to expect. Bad haircuts and cheap sets plus an annoyingly stupid Nao played by Toda.
I watched the first episode, it took so long to get going. You can probably skip the first 40 minutes, mostly cinematic effect and dramatic lighting. I read the manga before, and the first 3 contests/games were quite good though.

I really can't wait though. Last complete one I've just finished was Shimokita Sundays, lot of her fans aren't too keen on this series, so far it's my fave she's been in. _________________

I saw it, #1 was better, Yada wasn't in the second one, Misaki Ito took her place, she's good though. Overall it wasn't too bad, Sorimachi got so annoying with his temper and ranting, took too much away from what could have been a good show, it's watchable though. AJi Ichimonme!/MAsters of TAste is good huh, put that on my list, made a comment yesterday in the bar/restaurant thread about Manhattan Love Story, it was like that, fun and quirky. _________________

Thanx for the info about Hotman 2.
We are already on ep 8 of Aji Ichimomne. Its a rather hard to find Dark Vortex fansub so if someone wants to feed it onto the web Id send it to them. Totally a blast!

Hi everyone,
at the moment i am watching hanazaki no kimi tachi, it's so funny.
I really like it.
I last watched:
Taiyo no uta ( one of my favorite jdramas so far)
Dr Koto
Kamisama mou soukoshi dake
14 Sai no hara
Taiyou no Uta is one my favorites too, i watched the whole thing in one day, Erika and Takayuki are damn awesome.
Just finished Hotman and really enjoyed, very good dorama, i recomend it.
Now i�Lm gonna watch Hotman 2, Misaki Ito is going to replace Yada Akiko or Konishi Manami, because in the Hotman 2 page says that Misaki is Sorimachi�Ls sister, but since hitomi #1 said that Misaki takes Yada�Ls place...[/b]

Manami Konishi isn't in it either, she was replaced by Misaki. That's why I've never bothered to watch it.
Well that answers my question, i won�Lt mind since Misaki is one my favorites and i don�Lt really care for Manami Konishi that much, i think the only role i really liked from her was the one in Tenshi no Tamago with Ichihara Hayato

I wonder if you would say that after seeing Churasan and Ruri No Shima?
I've been a fan since Churasan.

Guess I could have gone into more detail, Misaki plays his sister, no one really takes Akiko's place though Miho Shiraishi is also new and plays a teacher, she was good, it's worth a watch though, the cast was fairly solid. I'd like to see more of Manami, only seen her in Orange Days, Udon, Hotman and Accuracy of Death, she always plays somewhat of a secondary role. _________________

Well i don�Lt doubt she has some good roles and i don�Lt deslike her, but despite Tenshi no Tamago and Hotman i only watched her in Boku Dake no Madonna, Fire Boys and Orange Days. In Fire Boys and Orange Days she has very little scren time and her character in Madonna is really annoying.

Just started, for the second time, Egao no Hosoku, watched 2 1/2 episodes so far, anyone else have an opinion on it? Hard to believe this kind of storyline can go for 12 episodes, cast is solid though and Abe is my fave actor. _________________
