You're starting to skip down my favorite road.
Long Vacation still sits in the top slot in terms of the best dramas I've seen so far.
And Trick... well "Trick" is another in a long line of really terrific shows put together by Yukihiko Tsutsumi.
Along with dozens of others, he's the goof-ball behind;
Keizoku
Trick
Stand Up!
H2
2LDK
The Jam Films
So far, I've never seen one of his series or movies that I didn't think was fantastic.
shindou
How do you put "Midnight Rain" and "Sleeping Forest" in the same genre with "Trick" and "Keizoku"?
True, there's a mystery to be solved at the end of each (though Trick focuses on a series of mysteries rather than one grand puzzle to be sloved) but "Midnight Rain" is a long slow, melo-drama, and "Midnight Rain" is a straight mystery. While "Keizoku" and "Trick" are both amusument park rides. _________________

I think it might be up there for me as well! I've just finished epi 9 and I'm trying very hard not to rush into the next, since I'm at work and in dire need to be productive.

Sugoi! Well, I've seen H2 and I loved it. It'll always be in the top 10, or even top 5, list. B-san actually got me hooked on the idea of watching the Trick trilogy from way back. Knowing that you enjoyed the series as well confirms its ability to please. Thanks! _________________

hmm, i guess i was tying them all together as having a mystery element in it. Midnight Rain and Sleeping Forest were both more like mysteries that was slowly unravelled with each episode. Midnight Rain did progress as more of a drama with a mystery element in it than a straight mystery as you point out; i always seem to mainly remember yasuko and yuji's character trying to rediscover their past when i think of Midnight Rain. The categorization of jdramas are somewhat less well-defined for me i guess - hence the grouping under the mystery banner
finished IWGP eps 8-10 and now awaiting the last episode. _________________

on topic: half way through Okusama wa Majou...
i'm gonna get Nodame after this. definitely. but i dunno why i'm not that excited... i've read the manga until book 16 so far
Watched antique ep1 last night, with a very poor quality of pic, strived on but finally met a dead end when trying to copy ep2 from dvd-r to hard disk. Looked at the back of the dvd just realized there were scratches all the way..
Now planning to watch Trick 1 tonight..
There's a manga about Nodame?? is it funny?? _________________

jeagal_maut,
it's funny, i can finish a book quicker than eating instant ramen, but the thing is that it doesn't have music
so many characters
As soon as I know the drama is going to be aired, I went off to buy all 16 volumes (Chinese version). You are right, of course, the manga is good but I just can't 'visualize' the music. The drama, on the other hand, made it much easier to appreciate the moods of the characters. Now when I go back to the manga I can put myself into the atmosphere a lot easier.

i've started watching too many dramas at once. especially too many with matsuoka masahiro in them not that i mind because he's one of my favorite actors but i have too many plots and characters going through my head currently lol.
currently i'm watching:
psychometrer Eiji 1(rewatching)
tengoku ni ichiban chikai otoko 1 and 2
manhattan love story
akechi kogoro vs kindaichi kousuke
gift (rewatching)
oh yeah speaking of kindaichi, i just watched goro chan's kindaichi special for this year and it was pretty good. _________________
