I'm stuck now...

I've been trying to download few Jdramas recently but really can't find any qualified drama.

I really enjoy watching all genre I guess, i.e. Hitotsu Yane No Shita for family drama, Pride for romance, Maou for suspense drama, 1Little Of Tears for tear-jerker drama, and I'll say My Boss My Hero, Atashinchi no Danshi, Hanazakari No Kimitachi e is the most enjoyable drama I ever watched.

I see your recommendations here so I decided to watch:
- Orange Days, but I dropped after 5 episode, I can't find anything interesting Sad
- Love Shuffle, I really didn't enjoy this drama, I'd been wasting my time to download this Crying
- Dragon Zakura, i'm still watching it now, episod 2, so far so good but I still don't find the chemistry Sad
- Anego, only 1 episode Tongue

Watch one or two kdramas and then return to jdramas. That works for me x] Only I get a bit bored of kdramas sometimes and then I watch some jdramas.

Try Manhattan Love Story! Very funny story with a great cast. You'll know from the first episode whether or not it's for you. Matsuoka Masahiro is another member of Tokio who can really be funny. He's funny in Yasuko to Kenji too, which is a really good formula comedy. Still, I put all my life, my experience, and my soul into recommending Manhattan Love Story. ;)

I'm watching Warui Yatsura at the moment in the suspense/thriller category. It stars Kamikawa Takaya (played the school doctor in HanaKimi) as a very naughty doctor. Great performance from him so far, and you might find it interesting to see him in such a different role.

I'm also enjoying Anata no Tonari ni Dareka Iru as a rare family/suspense/horror/thriller but that's only partly subbed so far...

IWGP was pure awesome for suspense/comedy/thriller/mystery. Nagase was terrific, and I still think it was Yamampi's best performance. Kubozuka Yosuke, Sakaguchi Kenji, Sato Ryuchi, and Watanabe Ken were fabulous in it too. You'll probably need some tissues for parts of it.

ROOKIES was a really good school/superteacher drama.

Shikaotoko Awoniyoshi is a great school/supernatural/comedy. The first episode has lots of history in it, so it starts kinda slow... but the stuff is important to the plot and the show is quite different. Love the whole cast. Great ending too.

Mop Girl is very addictive, funny, and touching. Would've like a special afterwards, because there was some interesting stuff at the end that could have even made a second season. As it stands, the ending is a little open but still enjoyed the series immensely. Kitagawa Keiko and Tanihara Shosuke are really funny together.

Kimi Hannin Janai yo ne? was a funny detective series with Kaname Jun. He's really adorable in it. (Though I think his sexiest role is in Ashita no Kita Yoshio! Excellent drama that isn't done justice by the wiki description.)

Puzzle was another good detective comedy from the same time. It mixes students, hilariously manipulative teachers, and murders. Good stuff.

I'm trying to think of what to recommend for romance... there are only a handful of really great ones out there and I know you've already seen my favorite Long Vacation (for Pride I love Halu but loathe Aki, so I have some mixed feelings... Glare ). If you don't mind the premise of a hot guy deciding to live as a pet, Kimi wa Petto was a good one. Some emotional kisses in it too.

Bara no nai Hanaya would probably be a good show for you. It's a romance starring Katori Shingo and Takeuchi Yuko, and they have very good chemistry. It was written by the same writer as Hitotsu Yane no Shita, iirc.

Hotaru no Hikari is sweet and funny comedy/romance. Loved Buchou in it.

Koi ga Shitai was a really good series about a group of people whose lives interconnect involving, romance, family, and friendship. I cried a lot during one of the later episodes.

When my interest in Jdramas starts to wane, I switch to Jmovies and Kmovies. Kmovies have some great romantic comedies among other genres. Wub

Yo
I am searching for more series to watch, and the only way I know if is looking around in the forums for good names etc and then look em up on the wiki. And I think I might be a bit picky about what i want to watch. I like comedy/romance but not to much grief and stuff.
You all knowing people can just look at the highlights to see my preference while all lost souls like myself can read a little more.

What I liked there is no grief in these series.
Gokusen 1,2,3 Comedy/School/Beat-em-up Realy good series that dragged out a little towards the end.

Nobuta wo Produce School/Drama pretty sweet about 3 friends who gonna make one of them the prettiest girl in school. And I like most of Horikita Makis series. More to follow.
Kurosagi, Swindler/Romance kinda, guy who payback when someone is swindled from.
Seito Shokun! School/Drama about a class who have lost trust in their teachers, and about the kick-ass teacher who becomes friends with em
Hanazakari no Kimitachi e School/Comedy About a girl who cross dress to go the boys she have been dreaming about kinda.
Atashinchi no Danshi Comedy/Weird Family , more Maki action when she in some weird way becomes the mother of allot of grown boys and she have to straighten them out!
As you might notice I like Maki, but when you find good actors they tend to work with similar persons so the series ends Smile

Some more
Hana Yori Dango 1,2 - Comed/Romance about a poor girl who starts to date the richest kid in school. Realy good.
Kimi wa petto Comedy/Romance about a guy who becomes the pet of a business woman. Realy funny but becomes a little serious towards the end.
Mei-chan no Shitsuji Comedy/School about a poor girl who discovers that her grandfather is super rich and have to attend a super elite school. Pretty unserious.
Seigi no Mikatan Comedy/School The little sister who got an evil big sister, but the evil sister is considered an ally of justice by the public since she always do something good with her wicked ways- Probably the best comedy I have seen so far. Laughed so much while watching this.
Koshonin Police , probably the most serious serious series but not realy. About a police woman who have to deal with everything from male co-workers who don't like her to the sister. I liked it

Currently watching
Toky Dogs Comedy/Police About 2 totally different cops who have to work together. Not really a comedy but its not gloomy and stuff like real police series and its pretty unserious when it comes down to everything.
Samurai High School Comedy/School A "goofy" boy becomes possessed by his ancestor who is a "kickass" samurai. And yea guess how it goes. Beat em up.
Hotaru no hikari Currently no comment.

As you might have noticed allot of comedy ones. I would like to watch some more crossdress girl-> guy comedies if there is any. I find that hilarious. Could also be cute guy ->girl.

@ Eii

Nodame Cantabile (comedy romance very silly and funny)

Manhattan Love Story (another very silly and funny comedy romance)

Yasuko to Kenji (comedy, beat-em up, romance, work, family... Kinda like Gokusen but it's a former gang guy pretending to be a female writing girl's comics)

Kimi Hannin Janai Yo Ne? (comedy, mystery, police... more comedy than Tokyo Dogs)

My Boss My Hero (comedy, yakuza, romance, highschool)

Puzzle is a comedy,highschool, mystery series.

For crossdressing girls, you'll probably like Mendol. It's still waiting on subs for the final episode though. Three wanna-be idols have to pretend to be a boy band to hide from yakuza.

Boku to Kanojo no XXX isn't really crossdressing, but it's got body swapping between a guy and a girl. It's really short, maybe about ninety minutes total, broken into 10min episodes or so. Don't think there is a drama wiki for it... was originally a movie broken up to air as a series.

Hello I've recently started getting back into jdrama and would like some recommendations on what to watch. I'm looking for dramas that are about adults cuz I don't really like dramas with high school settings. A few dramas off the top of my head that I've watched and liked are:
Last Christmas
Slow dance
love shuffle
buzzer beat
kekkon dekinai otoko
almost everything with Kimura Takuya.

Im currently watching Hotaru no Hikaru which I'm really enjoying, but its almost over so hoping for 1 or 2 new series to check out. Anyways thanks in advance any help or suggestion I may get.
