Yup, that's also why you won't see kids under 20 (aka HSJ) performing after 12 in Countdown. Even NEWS ave to cut out some of its members from appearing in Countdown after 12 when they first debuted. But I think after 10pm refers to kids under 16, while 16-20 are not allowed after 12pm. Like how last year, 16-year-olds Kie Kitano & Saki Fukuda left after 10pm after playing for only 1 hour.

INTERESTING!!! My first time hearing that!

Thanks so much for the info!

i've yet to watch the first episode yet but from the pics i've seen so far, i can't really say that the cast fits the role...i mean i totally can't imagine narumi riko as hagu and even though i love ikuta toma i just feel that he does not really fit his role too...maybe that's just me...i always feel that watching a drama after watching the anime is just a bit weird cause i would totally compare the actors to the character they're portraying

I almost agree with you, Toma is doing a well job, ....but i don't know, i must watch til the end.

As much as i don't want to admit it Hachikuro is not going to be the big hit of the season like Hana Yori Dango 2 last year, in fact the rating is dropping. I totally hope this won't damage Toma's career, he was just doing it well.... let's see ...let's wait.

But i like it though ... so far

I don't think we should worry about it affecting Toma's career; since this role was another challenge for him & for me he did live his character very well; he arrived to make different with all his previous roles.. I think the ratings are just based on the drama in general, perhaps manga adaptations are not on the trend anymore, I dunno ^^ (oh well I can see more adaptation this summer already ) anyway, after this, Toma deserves a rest, well, sure, I'm not against if he has another plan attack for this summer (rivalize with his buddy in Johnny ,Pipi) hoho

i think episode 2 is much better than episode 1.

lucky i never watched the anime before. so, i have no 'prior expectation' for the drama.

anyway it really looks fine with me. i am enjoying it.

I haven't seen the anime either, but from what I've heard, it's not very good, so I'm not sure it would have ruined anything for you

[sw33t_laydee]

if anyone hasn't heard yet, SARS-fansubs subbed the first episode and are subbing the whole series in part with Love Song subs

no... it still looks fine with me so far... i am enjoying the first 2 episodes.
looking forward for more.... i am really not expecting too much out of it... i just want to watch a simple light-hearted love story.... so far so good....

maybe because i haven been following jdoramas for the past 5-6 years...

Oh why?

[atskv9]

I just watched the first ep last night and I'll say it's not the best drama, but it's definitely watchable for a whole season. Toma plays his role well and I think I've taken a liking to Harada Natsuki (Yamada) too. I can't comment on how well it follows the manga since I haven't read it but the script seemed believable. The physical humor of Toma getting kicked and stuff didn't really seem to fit in at some points though... I think I will continue watch it for Toma. He is really putting it all into this role.

[m.a.s.o.n_19]

I do thnik Toma is doing it very well !! Yuta is like a combination of comedyy and drama... perfect for Toma.

I meant the drama in general... it's not the best of the season but i'll continue watching it. it just started, maybe i talked too soon... i'm sorry.

Because the dumb singapore tv media decided to ride on the korean dramas wave then, and all the overseas TV time slots were taken up by korean dramas (which i totally dun like!), so I din have any opportunity to watch jdoramas... and switched to HK dramas then instead...

recently with high speed internet, i have made a 'comeback'... i am loving jdoramas once again!

[chokakoi]

from what i see in episode 1 and 2....

Takemoto likes Hanamoto, but Hanamoto likes Morita.
Then Yamada likes Mayama, but Mayama likes Harada, while Harada still likes her dead husband.

Ok... I want some spoiler please....

When who does Morita likes?
Then who likes Takemoto?
Who likes Yamada?
I am very very interested to know the relationship. Anyone who watched the anime or manga can help? THANKS!

I think adylma was trying to say that... she did not watched the anime, but from wat she heard, the DRAMA is not very good... not that the Anime is not very good....
