Recommended current season series:



Mondai no Aru Restaurant - It's a comedy about social stigma, gender inequality, and how the girls who hate each other work together in a restaurant to compete with the other male dominated restaurant. It's a really good cast ensemble and since Sakamoto Yuji is the screenwriter, you're bound to get lengthy scripts but so many meaningful quotes, eye-opening scenes that will for sure touch your heart. This is my favourite drama for this season.





Ouroboros - Trailing not far behind, this is my bias for the season. Cast include Ikuta Toma, Oguri Shun and Ueno Juri. Not to be missed imo.
DATE - Comedy about two very awkward people going on dates. It's really funny.
Other series I'm following but not quite sure whether I'd recommend yet are Ryuusei Wagon and Ghost Writer.

I've also started WOWOW drama - Garasu no Ashi. It's got only 5 episodes and currently up to ep2 or 3. Still not subbed. But I've watched the first 2 episodes, I will definitely finish this. Aibu Saki plays a dark protagonist here and she looks good in it.


LAST SEASON's recommendation

N no Tame ni
Gomen ne seishun

Mondai no Aru Restaurant

I get them from d-addicts too. But yes, that's the sad truth...some dramas just don't get subbed (Shi no Zouki is not currently subbed). I depend a lot on d-addicts for the most part, but if there's no sub for the dramas I really like, I still end up watching without subs by relying on my japanese understanding. I'm currently self-learning the language so it helps one way or another.

I think there's advantage too if you know Mandarin because from what I observed, a lot of J-dramas get subbed in Chinese. Even WOWOW dramas sometimes have Chinese subs. (too bad I'm a banana Chinese, know how to listen/talk but not read  )  WOWOW (private paid channel) dramas rarely get subbed in english because of the lack of Japanese subtitles, the channel doesn't provide subtitles like others do (FujiTV, Asahi, TBS etc)

For example here's the site for japanese subs:

Most subbing groups rely on these as reference to make english ones. Imo, since WOWOW don't provide them, their dramas are rarely subbed which is a huge waste because I actually prefer their dramas sometimes over the usual channels. Their shooting quality is just different, some are really like movie cinematography   
Anyways, I think Ishi no Mayu has a low chance of being subbed too but I'm still going to watch it

Another WOWOW drama - Enka Gold Rush which just finished this season. It's basically a black comedy 
That Osaka-ben is kinda tough to understand but still quite amusing.

Cast: Mirai Moriyama, Mitsuki Takahata

Synopsis
Sharing ep1 digest screencap.

Not sure if these suit your taste but I'll just list down those that left quite an impression on me for the past year.

Human/slice of life dramas:
Tenno no Ryouriban - prepare tissues for this 
Mondai no Aru Restaurant - I like how they describe women's position in men's world and the characters are charming in their own ways.
Kazokugari - very dark/heavy insight into family issues
Wakamonotachi 2014

Detective dramas:
Ouroboros
Border
Ishi no Mayu
Tantei no Tantei

Other recommended ones:
N no Tame ni - quite heart-warming and about a group of friends with a dark past
Alice no Toge - revenge suspense

There's HERO (2014 version) too if you're interested.
