d-addicts recovered, nice..

priceless, i really enjoying it so far e03. though sequence of events of kindaichi and nikaido becoming penniless are too comical.

ooku tanjou, on e04 somehow they turn it more to romance drama..

Strawberry Night

I enjoy watching all the cases quiet complicated and some of it quiet predictable but for the first time I find Takeuchi Yuko acting really annoying...It just strike me how Yuko tried really hard to act like Amami Yuki for Boss...

I really like Nishijima Hidetoshi as kikuta...he blend well with yuko as a pair and i can feel the chemistry between them..

Overall I will give 3/5 star for the storyline and cases...

Priceless is doing really good so far. Didn't expect it to exceed my expectation but Kimura's character is lovable although he doesn't seem to mind being poor as much as I would be if I were in his shoes. But the houseshare thing is nice.

As for Ooku...episode 1 was incredibly good. And the following ones as well...but yeah, it seems to go for the romance plot but let's hope there's more to it than just that. Masato Sakai never fails to impress me. Despite the age difference between him and Shogun (tabe mikako, age 23), they do have some chemistry. Not bad.

Going My Home is testing my patience a lot. Firstly, I like Abe Hiroshi, but the plot about finding kuna is very fantasy-like for me. And I'm not really into fantasy genre. So...I might drop this.

my brother is proficient in japanese, and he saying going my home dialogues are really funny.. im kinda agree with him though obviously im not really understand the language..

anyone watching osozaki no himawari?

I am! Loving it atm. Can't wait for the subs to be released faster. I'm curious how the 7 of them will have their paths crossed later in the show.

i jz watched GTO 2... haiya .. tot the actor is same .. but .. eerrmmmm kenot go la w the new teacher .. x e karisma at all...


but still miss bloody monday 1&2 .....

There's this WOWOW drama called Tsumi to Batsu starring Kora Kengo and Mizukawa Asami. Anyone who likes dark, depressing and mind-provoking genre should try it out. Not gonna spoil it for you but basically it's about this guy who is a hikkimori (shut-in) who dreams of becoming a writer. He stumbled upon a prostitution group by high school girls, and decided to murder the leader of the group (Ai Hashimoto). I watched 1st episode yesterday, subs are finally out. It was good. I have a liking for drama types like these. Too bad Asami Mizukawa doesn't appear much in the first 2 episodes, but the new actress Ai Hashimoto was pretty amazing in her bad role. If you've watched Confessions, you'd know who she is. All I can say is, her acting has improved and she's grown a lot lolz since then.

Resident just got subbed by someone so I'm beginning to watch it too. So far so good. Kinda like Code Blue. As for Going Home, I'm still contemplating whether to continue or not, I stopped getting further episodes for now.

tsumi to batsu, will try to watch it later..

osozaki no himawari, ive tried the first episode.. quite good but not as i initially thought (i read a lot of good review, so i expected a great stuff). its refreshing to scenes a peaceful remote area of japan..

i hope they will not focus much on romance and triangle love much.. from the chart, i expect at least 2 triangle love between 7 main characters..

the 2 theme songs sounded good.. glad to see kuninaka ryoko.. cute face though her voice kinda weird..

omg omg...2013 is going to be great. I visited tokyohive today and looks like there's going to be a drama with all my favorite actor, actresses in it!
Been a fan of Eita ever since...uh Nodame I think. And ever since, I've been following his work quite a lot. So Saikou no Rikkon will have him as lead male, and Ono Machiko as his ex-wife with Maki Yoko as his ex-girlfriend. Excellent cast!

"Eita is playing a just-divorced salesman who is still living together with his ex-wife. One day he happens to run into his now-married former girlfriend from his student days and feels attracted to her again. His ex-wife will be played by actress Ono Machiko, his former girlfriend by Maki Yoko, and the latter’s husband by actor Ayano Go." - tokyohive

can't wait...

and for those of you who likes ATARU, there'll be two Specials soon. It never crossed my mind to have Horikita Maki having the same syndrome as Chokozai though...more details here:

http://www.tokyohive.com/2012/11/horikita-...l-more-details/

Finished watching Bunshin..

I'm glad it only got 5 episodes...with 5 episodes I already feel a little bit draggy but i find it the storyline quiet refresh and believable..
For me storyline quiet predictable from the episode 1 .. i already know the whole essence of the story from the episode 1...

I like nagasawa masami here..she act as a difference person and also individual but she doin great..interesting to watch her to developed 3 difference character and u can still find similarities between them because they related with each other..

Overall I give 3/5 stars..not so outstanding but still watchable..

Added on December 14, 2012, 9:52 amanyone watch Hitori Shizuka? Is it worth to watch ?..lately i found dorama from WOWOW TV quiet good and appealing..

yea i am currently watching hitori shizuka and I have to say for a detective drama, it is pretty awesome. English subs are also out until ep 4.

Recently, I found out that the drama sp's are so much more better than the normal dramas.

since most american tv series currently on break due to christmas and new year, ive decided to watching more jdrama.. this hitori shizuka could be on my list..

currently watching
priceless
going my home
osozaki no himawari
ooku tanjou
koukou nyushi
tsumi to batsu

imo ooku tanjou are the best of the bunch..

Morning.


I miss her in the movies.

She's more into drama nowadays.

Any comedy J-drama lately?

you can try watching tokumei tantei cause it is hilarious. I highly recommend this drama. It has comedy, action

ive completed..

Ooku: Tanjou [2012]
definitely one of the best this season. im sure they will make a new season /sp /movie.

Going My Home [2012]
mildly funny, feel good family drama. not hiroshi abe best, but i really like it..

hitori shizuka

very good mini series. wowow's series in 2012 really set a new standard for jdrama.

the 1st episode are not really good. the main character, shizuka, not imposed. but gradually improved after that. the shooting scene in 4th episode are terrible.

i think there's a plothole/confusion in the finale.

Suitei Yuuzai

Boring from Ep. 1 till Ep. 4 ... only ep. 5 worth it to watch and actually it sum up what happen in all episode...concept actually interesting but the flow of the story super dragging and slow..

Rate 1/5 star .. the 1 star come from final episode...luckily final episode of this drama can be rate or else this drama will got no star..


Doctor X ~ Gekai Daimon Michiko

overrated drama from the rating, acting and also the storyline..
I am a big fan of medical drama but this drama super annoying.. cannot stand the heroin and also the dialogue..
nothing can beat Iryu Team Medical Dragon..
Satisfied scene will be when the evil director fight with each other in childish way...that's it..

Rate 2/5 star...too much..too ambitious..over acting..
