I personally thought that Yukan Club was pretty horrible. It had horrible acting and had cheesy plots. The only reason why I watched it was because of the chick who played Noriko
I thought Yukan Club was extremely boring as well. I also thought Dragon Zakura, Majo no jouken, Hero, Teppan Shoujo Akane and Liar Game were rather boring...

proposal daisakusen: the first drama of yamapi i watched (i've never seen him in drama before prodai, i guess). i see him as yamapi himself with 'halelujah chance' pose and his wink not iwase ken.
I gave up watching Proposal Daisakusen half way through the series myself so I guess I'll add that to the list also...

Yep I'm with you on these two. I could not get thru HYD I tried a few times, I cannot get past ep 3 since it is mainly a re-tread of the spoiled rich kids theme, and the ordinary "poor" person who has no kind of chance at happiness unless they disguise themselves, enter the world of the rich kids, "teach" the spoiled kids, etc., ad infinitum. It's a tired formula. The success of these type dramas are 99% dependent on the casting of Johnny's and other idols (I'm not against idols, some of them can even act). Enuf said.

Sapuri, another cure for insomnia I cannot seem to get through! How could the executives sit thru this one long enough to even put it on the air? I like Itoh Misaki, most things she is in are good, but this one I cannot get past ep 2 (have tried a few times now). It's like this story never gets going. The first scene on the train is good, where she finds his cell phone and he calls it. Then it's just ... what happens after that? Where are we? An office ok... Who is she? Who is he? Exactly, I cannot remember after 10 minutes either.

^^ Liar Game boring? That was one of the most exciting things on last year, imho. The music and situations were tense, the characters were strange, the story was very enjoyable to me.

Proposal Daisakusen for some reason I did enjoy! The acting and story were alright in that one, and it did not make me sick like most adolescent angst-driven dramas do. The ending is a bit predictable, but parts of the story were fresh. The little things he finds the importance of in his second chance flashbacks (the 2nd button on graduation day, the note in the library book she leaves him), some of those moments were touching.

Well maybe i should watch until the end before consider those drama are boooorrrring but still i just dont have enough strength to keep me awake to watch those drama... Maybe i should put something on my eyelid to make sure it does not automatically close ahaks....

Yeah, I found Beautiful Life incredibly boring as well. I really tried to finish it because it's a Takuya drama but I just couldn't get past episode 7. Pride is another boring drama. Everyone kept going on and on about how it is so great but I found it boring even though I finished it.

Long Love Letter... hmm. Something just isn't right about the drama. I know it's sci fi but the characters should at least behave realistically.

Majo No Jouken... I watched it to the end but I found it a little ridiculous. It's something I can't recommend to anyone. It was unnecessarily dramatic and I didn't even 'feel' this undying love that these characters sacrificed their lives for.

HYD.. that was a good story even if we don't count on the ratings about the cast.. (and i'd liked hyd2 more!!)

and another...
LIAR GAME boring??
i don't think so.. it was so tactical and i'd really love the plot of the story...

Proposal Daisakusen.. somehow boring with me.. it's like, "can't you do anything great even if you returned to your past??!" and may i say, somehow boring in a way of the repititive way of "halleluyah chance!"...

Hana Kimi: The premise was so ridiculous and the plot so predictable. I think it would have been better if she didn't end up with Shun's character (that guy keeps getting cast in these completely crap roles, just the same guy recycled. Hanazawa Rui, anyone?). The only think I liked about it was Toma, with a little more work, I think he could be come a good actor. And Maki was terrible in this, I think.

Hearing mix reviews about this drama. It's either really bad or really good. scratch


I started off liking it but as the series went on I started losing interest as it became really silly and predictable further in. Actually, does anyone wanna fill me in as to what happens with mizuki and co. at the end? I couldn't finish it I'm still a bit curious Laugh

Anyhow, I think it really depends on you. If you can laugh at silly things a la Gokusen you might enjoy this. But if you're into heavier dramas you might wanna stay away from this drama.

Gokusen season 1 was also made for money Laugh

What you wanted to say, i think, was :
"I like Gokusen 1 season, but 2 and 3 were (only) made for (a lot) more money because season 1 was a (big) hit."
Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong Big Smile

I too like season 1 but not seasons 2 and 3, but only because of the cast/acting and the episodes/situations somewhat becoming boring, if not absurd.

Yankumi alias Nakama Yukie is still very cute in season 3, even after putting some weight on but thankfully not too much. (her head seems to be more round than before, or am i just imagining things ?)

I agree!
I wrote a review on how boring it is here

Pride was another snoozer. I couldn't understand the hype. Except for the fact that Takeuchi was STUNNING.. the drama in its whole was not very interesting.

Bimbo Danshi. I can not get through ep 1. The main character is too unrealistic. I do not like HYD 2 too.

Ah, I'm going to have to defend HYD. I read the entire manga first (remember, it first came out in 1992 and ended in 2003) and thoroughly enjoyed watching the J-Drama, recognizing the similar scenes from the manga. I especially loved how in season 2, the writers took fan favorite moments and worked them into the story. To me, any other rich boy/poor girl shoujo stories (I see a lot of them in K-Dramas) that came after the manga just doesn't match up.

Oh well, to each his/her own.

As much as I like watching Oguri Shun, I also couldn't get passed ep2 of Binbo Danshi. His character was what annoyed me the most. I mean no one is that stupidly nice that you would risk being in debt just to help (or ppl embezzling you for money and think they are your friend) Doesn't he realize they are taking advantage of his "generosity".

As for Gokusen, some say it's a GTO ripoff, but dude Yankumi is generally her own character and has her personal charms that GTO sensei does not have. Of course, there's so many other school life dramas / mangas/ etc but you have to appreciate how well the actors/ actresses portrays their parts. I love Gokusen S1 but S2, S3 are all for fangirls and eyecandy.

Hanakimi was alright, but true, I expected more from Maki-chan and Oguri Shun's roles. They didn't do their characters justice. The best part about it for me was Ikuta Toma and his "homo-ja-nai" anthem. Laugh

Beautiful Life was one of the first Jdorama I've watched and got me addicted to KimuTaku. I guess everyone has their own opinion, but KimuTaku is one of the best (if not the best) J-actors out there.

Long Love Letter is also pretty cool. Someone here mentioned that it's too unrealistic. My answer to that is NO DUH!!! Dude is sci - fi supposed to be realistic ??? The premise of a different dimension or time (whichever one it was) is pretty cool. The first episode almost made me sleep but at the end of it, I was like, huh WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED!! Then I pretty much watched the entire drama in 3 days.

It probably depends on your taste of dramas : sad/ tearjerking drama --- sci-fi (supposed to be unrealistic) --- comedy/ light / dramas to relieve stress
