JDrama Recommendations

[tInoltin]

I agree, if you like sports related dramas, "PRIDE", "ENGINE", "Wonderful Life" is a must watch then!
They're awesome.

Hi i was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations on good comedies or romantic comedies made in Japan. I've watched GTO, Gokusen, and and Hana yori dango and i was wondering if there were more jdramas like those. Hope some can give me advice. thanks

As far as comedies/romantic comedies go, you might try Seikei Bijin or Hito ni Yasashiku

But those 2 aren't anything like GTO or gokusen

[chamber25]

thanks, the story does not really have to be like those two, i was just looking for something lighter than some of the heavy dramas out there. i also know that GTO and gokusen is considered to be one the best shows so i know it would be hard to follow. Thanks i'll try looking at thos you recommended

[gaijin mark]

Just as a follow up, you might want to check out Hotman, it's not a comedy, but it's the first drama that got me hooked. Another comedy to check out would be Densha Otoko, THAT'S a comedy

They're good. They're similar except one teacher is a man and the other is a female.

I'm watching 2 right now (up to ep 10 of 12) and its pretty much like a re-hash or continuation of 1. I'd recommend watching 1 first and if you really like it, then watch 2. Otherwise, its more or less like Gokusen 1 & 2's similarities

Last Christmas, Love Generation, Long Vacation are also some excellent ones you might enjoy

I would say watch Hotman1 and skip Hotman2, no Manami Konishi or Akiko Yada in Hotman2, it just ain't the same.

POSSIBLE SPOILER!!! Ok... there is this drama that I'm looking for, but all I know is a little bit of the story.... there is this high school guy who seems to be a memeber of the yakuza and is really tough, but in school he's a complete dork. Can anyone tell me what the name of this drama is? Thanks! Anra

There is a thread on identifying jdoramas already:
