Pride

[Kyuubi]

ya... from the subs it seems that if she guessed rite, it'd be game over. And in 2 of the pockets, there lies 2 keys. 1 duplicate, 1 original. But both are tied with pink ribbon. I guess halu wanted to end the game no matter what.

From how I look at it, Halu duplicated his house key and asked Aki to choose which pocket has his housekey. No matter which one she chooses, there will be a housekey in it. I thought Halu wants to give her his housekey as a 'hidden hint' of keeping her by his side. Hmm... also to end their game and start a serious relationship? Not very sure. But that's how I look at it.

Totally agree with ya here!

Then the hardest part for Aki came when her old BF stood at the other side of the bridge...

But I guess without this part, there wouldn't be any more buildup to the next scene. Its inevitable.

yupe the scene was essential to build up the story properly for the superb ending. But it was a really painful scene ouch!

Was watching the show again and I also cringing again when the bridge scene came up. sigh. Cant bear to see dear yuko-chan all pained and crying

one thing i really like about the show is the pacing of the plot, everything is very well-paced and the lead up to finale was good. Phew at least it was a good ending coz I realize over the years jap drama tend to have some bad ending . e.g. Summer Snow! (pain pain )

at the alst episode i was looking at the time remaining and getting all anxious if the show is gonna just end.. phew=)

aahhh! can't wait! can't wait for monday to come! hahahaha!

dashx, ya a Yuko fan? Did you check out D-Addicts? There's a TV Special on her. 2 parts!

OMG. I'm soooo in love with Takeuchi-san!

[dashx]

yupe yupe big fan of her thanks for the info on d-addict shall go and see
anyway pretty obvious from my avatar:P

was inspired by another poster her who made a site for Konishi Manami, coz i'm a web designer too so was thinking of doing up a website for yuko-chan=) Been scouring the web lately for her news and pictures... lol din realize there were so much info and pictures online. There's even a dedicated site in taiwan for her. ( and the more shocking thing was she knows about the site and sent mail to them before!!)

anyway for me its kinda hard to surf chinese site (think its so for western fans of her) so i think an english site would be nice and convenience for everyone:)

Btw you watched Ima.ai.ni.yukimasu? sigh wat a beautiful show

[jianne]

im a fan of Takeuchi Yuko too!!! she's pretty!

btw, she's in the show STYLE also rite? the jap drama b4 Pride...

I don't know to be ashamed or what. I got to know her from Ima Ai Ni Yukimasu. So late! She's already done quite a few dramas before hand and I didn't know.

I watched that show in Cineleisure THREE times! Twice on a weekend too! I'm such a crazy fan of that movie that I bought the chinese translated version of the novel, collected the brochure from Cineleisure, bought the OST from HMV, and got the comic for it at Kinokuniya Takashimaya even!

HHmm... could I trouble you to post up the links for the sites you found so far? I think Stardust original site is somewhat boring. Not much info and updates there.

BTW, I've got quite a few pics from a few sites. Will post them up shortly when I find the time.

[dashx]

It was shown here!!!! Argh how could I have miss it. damn need to pay more attention to the listing. hmm i got the entire ost in mp3.. was thinking of getting the book too.. hmm whats the title of the chinese version?from kino too? well gonna watch the show again soon.. most probably when no one is at home so i can enjoy it fully:)

anyway think we should move our conversation to her dedicated thread:P this is a thread about pride:P

[Fuwari]

Yes! I was reading the reviews even before Cathay brought the movie to Singapore. Was sooo waiting for it. Didn't know exactly who Yuko was then in the papers... but after the movie...

Okay. Seeya at Yuko's thread!

[Kyuubi]

well... i kinda liked the part where halu juz barge into the old bf's office and hit the smitterings out of him after saying hi.

[yanjun]

^that is in the later episodes right..hmm..haah my friend watched that part already then she was like "takuya is so handsome!!"

i wanted to watch that show!!! the ima ai ni yukimasu..is the eng title 'be with you'..? the chinese title is so nice..in the end i watched sekai no chuushin ai wo sakebu..they were shown around the same time i think..that show is v sad too..the GUY beside me was sobbing..lol!

[jianne]

woah!!! u guys finished watching it already? so good! im only depending on chU to show it.. so im really quite slow with it.. anyway, thanks for telling it.. i'll watch out for those scenes..

[dashx]
