lol....ya..confusing..i wana now if de police

guys/girls, i've never watched J-Dramas before , please suggest me a good one to get me started

hmm,
nodame cantabile
GTO
beach boys
galileo
one litre of tear
maju no jouken

what else???hmm....too much of interesting and nice dorama...can't remember so much

I've following Buzzer Beat cuz I'm a fan of Kitagawa Keiko!! It's a kind of drama similar to PRIDE plus some taste of Long Vacation (I mean the Basketball court + The advertisement board) with the background of basketball player. Yamashita is as cool as usual but he shows some muscle in this drama....

Anyway, I love this drama a loootttt!!

try densha otoko, iryu or pride

long vacation,beach boys,GTO,ice world

Anyone watched Atashinchi no Danshi? What do you think? I've read most review like this drama saying its amazing and whatnot but I just don't get it. Storyline kinda weird, jokes kinda lame and not funny, the emotion looks fake and it overly cheesy and corny or at least I thought so. Nothings make sense in this drama. Kinda disappointed really. Maki just not as charming as before and her acting to me seems plastic. But in the end it just my cent. Probably others may have different opinion.

My attendance here have been on a hiatus for a long time, when was my last post here i wonder

Anyway, I just started to catch back on some Jdoramas and at this hour exactly, i finished watching the 1st episode of Buzzer Beat. The hugely acclaimed dorama of the season (at least i think it is), starring every girls' heat-throb Yamapi and every boy's dream girl, Kitagawa Keiko.

Following is my review of the dorama (please be reminded that i have just watched the 1st episode and the following only contain perception obtained from that particular episode only) :

First off, as the name of the dorama sounds, Buzzer Beat is actually a situation in basketball when a shot is made just before the timer runs out. So you can say the dorama is related to basketball. I am in total agreement but then the sport is just half of the essence in it. From what i have seen, the story is directed towards a basketball player's life in Japan and the various relationships that evolves around him.

So for those who have no love for the sports or no knowledge or whatsoever, this dorama suits all audiences

Next i would like to direct towards Yamapi and Kitagawa Keiko. Two of them or any of them is already a reason enough to watch this series. I am sure you regulars here agree with me . Yamapi retains his usual coolness as shown in Kurosagi but also shown a huge leap in maturity in his acting. Maybe his character is around the young adult age and the characteristics just slightly makes him look otherwise, which then gave us the Yamapi look

Kitagawa Keiko on the other hand is just way too cute to be described. She depicts a music student which seems to be pretty conceited with oneself but in a sense, not. Reading back, i dont really understand it myself but it is the best that i can describe her in it. Lovely lovely acttress i daresay. You guys must be thinking i am infatuated with her I admit i am. Come on, one normal male human being doesnt, something is wrong.

And not forgetting those basketball enthusiasts like myself watching the show, you will feel like "i've seen better" and i understand that Yamapi's basketball moves and all the other actors were just acted up. Pretty sure Yamapi has to do some training beforehand for the show but his moves are just way too slow and out of direction. I hereby declare to challenge Yamapi to a 1 on 1 match

Overall, i really think this dorama is not bad but i really have to watch the other few episodes to convince myself that this is going to be one of the better doramas that i have ever watched.

Rating for 1st episode and initial impression, 7/10.

wow...long review @@
looks like not bad....going to watch it after finish orthros

hey Virgil-san okaeri! Glad to see you back.

yeah, buzzer beat is an above average drama, and indeed Keiko Kitagawa is cute as always. For me, currently I think that this season's worth a look dramas are Buzzer Beat, Orthros no Inu, Ninkyo no Helper.
