when it comes to love, a lot of times i noticed that japanese male characters are often portrayed as the good-looking, hardworking, but slow, like really slooow. it's one of those scenes where in an american tv show they would've instantly gone off to bed and make out or whtvr but instead they do this staring thing and goes on with the "omae no koto suki desu" ritual.

what an ass!!!
lol. they should have played melody's song on that part. major melodrama! _________________
excellent!! love it! nearly perfect. i definitely want more. though i quiet dislike how it started. and they could've gotten more use out of melody's song.
but... big round of applause for Karina!!! girl, you can act! her performance made Sawajiri Erika's in 1LoT look like a lame drama-queen dying bitch! _________________

Just finished Sexy Voice and Robo
Probably 7.5. I really enjoyed the first few and last 2 episodes, and episode 7. Apart from those, the others were a bit ordinary, parts of which I felt I endured rather than enjoyed. I really liked the original plot and topics, how it was able to mix light-hearted and serious content seamlessly. Both the leads were very good too. But one of its problems I think is that it got a bit too complicated/confused sometimes in trying to deliver its messages, and there was a lack of focus for a long time in the middle of the series (both in terms of character and ...) I would have liked to see more of Niko, even though the story of Robo's growth was quite well told. The messages sometimes were a bit confusing, not sure if it's due to the quality of translation. I like most of the messages that I understood, though I have to say most of them were not that memorable, except for the first episode.

I am currently watching Gokusen 2 and starting 3 within the next half a hour ^_^. Then probably i will watch 1 litre of tears but that is still undecided.

actually, 1 litre of tears is a much much better choice than Gokusen
Since I have a crush on her, I figure any show Aibu is in starts off with 2 automatic points out of 10 in the scoring system. (I've been watching the Olympics.)
I'm 8 episodes in and this show gets a solid 2 from me.
But it hasn't been a complete waste of time. While it's been running, I've had time to do my bills, and vacumn my carpets, and catch up on the sports pages. _________________

I can't disagree with you on the rating. I absolutely HATED the manga (I thought it was by far one of Yuu Watase's worst works...if not THE worst ). I only watched it to see what kind of changes they might make to it (I like to compare drama's to their original mangas)...
Suffice to say, I wasn't horribly disappointed, simply for the fact that I never had high hopes for it in the first place.
On a much better note, has anyone watched "Himitsu no Hanazono"? It looks interesting but I'm tentative to download the batch on d-addicts because I don't know if it has subtitles.
Any guesses? _________________
