I really liked the 2nd episode! I can really see Yamada's deep feelings for Mayama now (I couldn't really see it in the first episode):

I found it so cute when Mayama was carrying her on his back when she was drunk, and she kept saying "idiot Mayama" and "I like you" over and over again. Awww...
That is my favorite scene in the Honey and Clover anime. It was sadder in the anime. I really cried because of Ayumi's pain. LOL!
So far, I am enjoying this drama. It has been really funny. I agree that this drama is a little different from the anime, and the characters portrayed in the drama are a little different than the anime, but the essence of the characters are still there.
I think Hagumi and Morita are the only characters that would be hard to portray in real life. Because of this, I guess the scriptwriters really had to alter the story a little. A short and cute 12-year-old actress would have been more appropriate to play Hagu, but Narumi Riko's acting has been good enough in my opinion even if she doesn't look young enough for the role. Also, I am impressed that so far, Narimiya Hiroki could do a good job as Morita in this drama, but there is not much development for Morita's character yet because the drama has just started. I guess I'll just have to wait and see and criticize later.
I have seen seasons 1 & 2 of the anime and I loved it so much. I guess, the only thing I am missing (or maybe I just didn't notice it) in this drama is Takemoto contemplating or voicing out his personal views, feelings, or insights in every episode of the anime. That gave the anime a serious and nostalgic mood.
Still, I like this drama and I hope for its success.

i really like the scene too.how yamada said she likes is pretty similar to the anime.but i'm still rooting for mayama and rika.i wonder when will they show more of mayama and rika.poor mayama.rika didn't want him to work with her anymore.
i agree about the young 12 years old should play the hagu character.so the other actress that i think can play hagu well is fukuda mayuko.i really like her.she looks really young as well.but the drama'll not want a real 12 or 13 years old as hagu.it sshould be more realistic.but i think narumi riko is doing a very good job as hagu too.though she didn't have the young looks and she looks rather mature but she express herself pretty well as hagu.

i have seen the pics too.chiaki ito is quite suitable to be hagu.but i'm not convince with the others.the other one that i think suitable is joe cheng.he looks quite like mayama too.but we'll have to see when the drama is out.only then we can make the judgement.but takemoto acted by toma is always the best for me.

Hi minna, I just watched ep 2 by LS-SARS. I'm glad the pace is picking up, I kinda thought the 1st ep was a bit slow. That's why I procrastinated watching the 2nd ep... It finished downloading almost a week ago but I only watched it today. *sheepish*
I'm beginning to like Narumi Riko as Hagu-chan, she's so sweet! She's really pretty isn't she. (: I like the way she smiles.
NanaTorigawa: Yeah I agree with you, I feel like strangling Morita though he'll probably run off first. -__- Yappari I have to use Yamada's kick. xD He's totally clueless of Takemoto's feelings toward Hagu, it's vexing. It's so obvious. I love Narimiya Hiroki (fell in love with him from NANA and NANA 2) but Morita is ... >.<

I also like the scene of Yamada and Mayama at the beach... It was sweet in a bitter way. Bittersweet. (: "Ahou, ahou, ahou" became "suki, suki, suki..." LOL
Argh I cant wait for the hardsubbed ep 3!

Well, I never expect any live-action dorama to be good unless you never watch the anime or read the manga. Name one if there's any. Because most animes/mangas involve kids, and kids don't make good acting. Watching Detective Academy Q and Conan SP was awful enough for me. Therefore, it's hard to find a real life Hagu-chan. Nevertheless, watching Hagu, I finally realize what an adorable young talent Narumi is.
Anyway, this drama should at least stick closely to the anime. Maybe a 2 or 3 seasons project instead of rushing things. This drama should be depressing, nostalgic and beautiful with some twist of comedy. The first 2 episodes should be concentrated more on characters building. Well, Hagu and Morita should be more "mysterious", and Mayama should be more tougher and cooler "the like of Tamaki Hiroshi". Well, we know what's going to happen next, but with things happening so fast, isn't it seems a bit cruel to Takemoto. Wish the drama to be better, but so far I'm enjoying it.
