I LOVE JDRAMA! I have over 50 series in PC, and got 10 DVD I bought ^^ Latest = Binbo Danshi

Bunshin [2012] 5 episodes miniseries

i believe its pretty good. rare to see very good JDrama these days. i didnt watch much this season (winter 2012), only 4 titles. this is definitely the best.

probably i am bias because im a fan of Nagasawa Masami. but i recommend this to everyone. family drama, surrounding by mystery, a separated identical twin (?) to find out more about the truth about their parent, an affair?..

The story’s main character Mariko is a woman studying child welfare in Hokkaido. She grew up always doubtful about the love from her mother, who looked nothing like her and who passed away 9 nine years ago. One day, she finds some of her mother’s belongings at a relative’s house, and she heads to Tokyo to seek out the truth behind her birth.

Meanwhile, Futaba is a college student living in Tokyo who is focused on her band. She gets an opportunity to appear on television, though her mother is strongly opposed to it. Naturally, Mariko is shocked when she happens to see Futaba on television, since the two of them look completely alike.

Bunshin its very nice.. im really enjoyed it.. though the ending are quite weak.

i bought alot before. but now already pandai download. so i download. usually will chose which one i interested and follow every week^^

some old good drama also i download.

now spring drama will start, any good recommendation?

The reason why I stopped buying is because most of the jdramas being sold at local shops are actually non-originals, just bearing the sticker. So all the profits does not get to the producers at all. Luckily I did not purchase too many...

jdramas LJ went bonkers?

i strongly suspecting, most of the JDrama boxset available at establish outlets also came from downloaded source..

99% are fansubs, including those animes. So do the industry a favour, do not buy any "originals" of jap/kor dramas and animes! Do the right thing by downloading from the subber's sources instead

guys any recommendation on latest drama?

im downloading Suitei Yuuzai (no sub available, yet)
Journalist Kayama Seiji who is covering the war zone, gets shocking news that Shinozuka Yoshio, the criminal serving time for the murder of a young girl 12 years ago, is actually innocent. At that time, Kayama reported on that case. Convinced that Shinozuka was the criminal, Kayama had proceeded to write the news stories, but he is proved to be wrong after the passage of 12 years. Shinozuka’s lawyer, Ishihara Yoko, holds a press conference where she criticises the sloppy investigation by the police and speaks of suing for the suffering during the 12 years that Shinozuka had lost. However, Shinozuka’s daughter, Miho has mixed feelings for her father who is released from prison at this late stage.

The victim’s older sister, Hiroko, also finds it difficult to accept this reality. The detective Asada Kunio watches the press conference with a grim look. He was the person who had put Shinozuka behind bars. Asada had sent an innocent man to jail as a criminal. Kayama had made him into a criminal and fanned public opinion. Now they have to start to face the fact that he was wrongly convicted

and possibly 37-sai de Isha ni Natta Boku ~Kenshui Junjo Monogatari~
The base for the story is a doctor named Kawafuchi Keiichi (52). After graduating from Tokyo University, he spent some time making a living off of pachinko and worked various jobs before becoming a hikikomori (shut-in) for a year. At the age of 30, he decided to enter the medical school at Kyoto University, and he finally became an intern at a university hospital at the age of 37.

Kawafuchi wrote an essay-like novel about his experiences in 2002 that sold roughly 100,000 copies. His follow-up book, “Furikaeru na Doctor,” was released in 2011 and is being used as the basis for the drama.

from the quick look JDrama listed this new quarter, nothing seem appealing for me.. but who knows..

anyone already watched blackboard TBS drama special? on my trip at japan last week full with promotional review of this drama...it looks promising..

now watching Boku to star no 99 nichi...long time no watch jdorama

For new season, I think im gonna watch Kagi no Kakatta Heya and 37sai de isha ni natta boku. Both dramas quite promising.

I like this season more than the last. Offers more entertaining ones. So here are my recommendations:

ATARU - great acting of someone with 'savant syndrome' and cute interaction with the supporting casts.

Kagi no Kakatta Heya - Fans of Ohno or arashi should watch, though I'm neither, I find Ohno portraying the lead character very well, love his expressionless and cold attitude. Except when he speaks fast about something he likes, that is solving locked rooms mysteries. Not to mention, there's Toda Erika too.

Legal High - very funny! A lot of over the top acting and exaggerating for the most part, but that's why I like it.

Toshi Densetsu no Onna - not a fan of Masami Nagasawa's acting but I think the show's made for her. Nice to see a show where she's not crying or being helpless for once (like in Last Friends). And i think guys will like the way she flaunts her legs in this one, a lot of them.

As for a more serious drama, Mou Ichido Kimi ni Propose by Yutaka Takenouchi. Well, I'm a huge fan of his, maybe a bit biased but it's pretty good and depressing because of the theme. Well, look it up!

I seem to have a lot of shows to keep up with this season

Compared to the last, I only finished Strawberry Night while the rest, I gave up halfway. Lucky Seven was overrated and not enough Eita to keep me attracted. Hungry! was fine I guess, just not quite there either.

Whose watching Mirai Nikki? Great drama!

Yeah, as what avanpiper suggested, Legal High is quite funny!!

watching Legal High too..its been a while since i last time watching jdorama

Hi! Can recommend any latest sengoku period related drama?

Suitei Yuuzai (miniseries of 5 episodes)

i think its pretty good. ive watched 2 episodes. a story about convicted child killer, found innocent after he served 12 years in prison. he lost his wife and daughter through the period. politicians and his lawyer try to exploit his misfortune for their benefits. a detective and a journalist who've put the innocent man by honest mistakes, try to redeem themselves by investigating the true story.

^ The drama seem pretty good but is there any latest Sengoku period related one like Tokugawa Ieyasu, Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, Tenchijin and Toshiie to Matsu?

just finished watching moteki movie. love the series, and also hate it at the same time. if you like the drama, don't missed this one.

fav part of the movie, the dance of course, and the song
luv seeing moriyama move



currently watching : Hungry!
