Kimi ha Petto
Kou Kou Kyoshi
Gokusen
The first is probably the worst I'd ever seen. The annoying actress, main-lady who does her own thing is really annoying.

| Quote: | | My second worst Drama was IWGP, well 2 tell u the truth i hated it more than GTO but i wouldn't want 2 judge it bec i only watched 4 episodes, and i personally think that we shouldn't or rather can't judge a drama untill we watch it through till the end. but really what kind of a drama is that, i just felt it had no message whatsoever besides being too darkly criminal. I only started downloading it after i had watched My Boss My Hero and liked Nagase so i thought i wanted 2 see him in another drama, but i was totally disappointed |
i know that is your personal choice and i know that i can sound biased talking about IWGP but i am really astonished to see this drama as a worst j-drama in this thread.
as you said, you can never judge a drama by watching only 4 eps of it. IWGP is different kind of drama but there is no way it can be called the worst. it's actually very unique in every way you look at it. it's not like your average every day.
it's dark, and it is violent, true. but it follow a story very well written and greatly acted not only by my fav actor but everyone else that has taken part. no wonder it has taken so many awards in 25th tv drama academy.
behind all confusion that people can get about the meaning of this drama, one thing you ought to notice and that you don't need to follow any people/party just to get noticed. if you have your moral/beliefs you still can survive in today's world and gain respect by people around you just by leading as example.
i have watched this drama twice and second time veiwing made me love it even more. there are so many messages in there. and i was just amazed by how unique each character was.
i guess Honey & Clover was really disapponting for me too. the whole story was very dragging. i gave it try as soon as it was released but later on found myself not wanting to continue, but i did watch till the end and realised what a waste of precious time it was.
| Quote: | | Then there were 3 people who I wish I could have killed off from the first episode. The "love triangle" between the nerd with glasses, old woman he loves, and cry-baby chick who loves the nerd (yes I am being mean but I really couldn't stand them). I hated everything about them. How they all were so fickle -- I love her, I hate her, I love him, I hate him, and it repeats in a predictable, formulated cycle that makes me want to pull my hair out. How they seem to be making some progress but something would happen and they go back to their same pitiful selves. It drove me nuts even more to see how they were all sooooo PATHETIC. |
wooow, my feeling exactly. i think the whole story was ruined by these 3 character and there being/not being would not had any effects on the whole thing. i was happy to find some space on my HDD by deleting this drama after i watched the last ep 
i also found Antiqu (cake shop) boring. as much as i like takky, i just finding most of his dramas are boring and hard to follow. i don't understand what cake has to do with it? to analyse people behaviour and self with way of making/eating/ordering cakes????????
i am also wondering what is producers/directors obsession with food to base an entire drama story on it? and to eat all that and still be this skinny is beyond my grasp.

My top 3 (taking the list by the end) would be:
- Honey & Clover: it felt like no one had a clue about what an art school/student should be like... I mean... I didn't see any people, just characters in there, and neither touching, nor funny ones.
- Fireboys: the captain is a hero, he would never have... wait!!! We have a RECORDING of the fire (cause everything burnt down but not the telephone or its cables, you see). And the likes in each episode. When I think I watched the whole series... -__-
- Yasha: maybe I'm just not bright enough. I didn't get it.

my worst is Yukan Club.............. omg... it was SO boring and absolutely bad... Iīve seen first 7 ep and I couldnīt get trough the next ones... I mean, I love 3 of those actors but the dialogues and storylines were sooo silly. At least if itīs there a little bit of romance or something but nooo, still the same boring and silly stuff. But donīt get me wrong, the silly things can be funny and I like them then (for example Nodame Cantabile) but here... well, it just didnīt work at all.
My second worst would be Summer Snow - boriiiing. And yes, I know, a lot of people say here, that they were able to watch only a few first episodes but Iīve seen them all and I didnīt like it.
And GTO - it was ok I think. But does it deserve to be as number 1 at jdorama.com!! No way!! It is totally overrated!!

I've just read all the posts through and I was really amused 2 find that a lot of ppl hated Gokusen, I can somehow understand it when ppl say they hated the 2nd season (bec it was so like the 1st) but hating the first? the only explaination i can think of is that they where for some unknown reason comparing it 2 GTO, come on guys there's no link whatsoever bet the 2, i don't believe ppl calling Gokusen a rip-off that stupid GTO thing. 
as for Gokusen 2, I actually enjoyed it more than the 1st (which is sth i myself was surprised at) maybe bec it had a more lively air about it, but i surely enjoyed the characters more than the 1st one (though i've 2 say Jun was adorable as Sawada  )
| Quote: | | The episodes were repetitive and, really, you'd think Yankumi might've learnt a thing or two about Class 3Ds and used some examples to help teach her new students. @__@;; Yes, maybe MatsuJun was too busy doing HYD1 to make a cameo but they could've used "flashbacks" from the first series to at least make us feel like Gokusen 2 is a sequel instead of some spin-off show. |
u're right, i have 2 admit i also thought that way at the beginning, but if u just went with the idea that they ARE actually trying 2 make the drama seperate from the first one, u'll gradually start 2 like it.
As for the BIGGEST GOKUSEN FAILURE; Gokusen 3, i can never find words 2 describe how annoyed i am having 2 watch this one that simply destroys anything good about gokusen. the acting is horrible, and i have 2 admit that the repetition also plays a huge part in me hating this one. Another point that i know not much ppl would agree with me on is that the this season's guys don't look that good. that Ogata looks so feminine and his acting is sooo astonishingly horrible and the rest of the guys look Strange 
i only like the one who plays Kazama.
Also i read some really funny comments on Kurosagi and Honey & Clover, it just feels so good when u read other ppl's opinions and u find them so like your own 
as 4 Kurosagi i thought it was so boring with similar things happening on every episode, and what's worse was YamaPi's acting, my God he really sucked in that one (though i personally like him) well the whole thing was so Manga-like, overly Cliched (hated it when YamaPi makes that gun sign with his hands or that "maido ari" at the end of every ep.) plus a very poorly written childish script.
Moving on 2 Honey & Clover, i would have liked it if it hadn't been that i simply hated the Main Female character AND the actress as well, besides most of the characters felt soo strange and out of order. One thing i noticed is that the ppl who made the drama worked so hard 2 convince us that the characters were close friends (notice the Closing of each ep) but somehow I 4 a viewer never felt they were one
I have 2 admit Ikuta did a fairly good job on that one, but hey....i didn't even like his character.

I love how exactly u expressed my opinion, those 3 were definitely the worst thing in the drama. But the funny thing is that the most person that i liked in the whole drama was the guy( idon't remember his name) who fell in love with the "cry-baby chick who loves the nerd" i don't know why but i was somehow attracted 2 the character 2 the extent that i was really sorry 4 him in the end bec he ended up with such a stupid girl.
But anyway I wouldn't say H&C was one of my worst bu i can say it definitely isn't one of my favourites either.
P.S. Sorry for being such a chatterbox  [/quote]

First off, I always try to finish every drama that I start.
The absolute worst drama is Hanazakari no Kimitachi e. To this day, I still don't even know how I even managed to finish the entire drama. It's just terrible and beyond ridiculous. The writing is tripe and it has no storyline, just a bunch of unnecessary scenes thrown together to prolong the inevitable outcome. The two leads, Ashiya and Sano, have absolutely no chemistry. When Ashiya's sexuality was discovered, I wanted her to be expelled. She was just so annoying. I think if a stronger actress had played the part, I would have tolerated the character more. I didn't for once believe Maki was even male. She's too pretty. When she was saying her good-bye's to everyone, I wasn't moved. I did shed a tear...because I wasted a good portion of my week on something as atrocious as this drama when I could have spent it doing something more productive, or rather, watch a better drama.
Second worst goes to Gokusen 2. It's an absolute abomination. I hate everything about it. It's a cheap ripoff of the first Gokusen. If the formula ain't broke, why fix it? Also hire as many good-looking guys as possible to attract an audience. Why focus on the acting or the mediocre and repetitive script when you have eye candy? To me, Sawada Shin will always be the 3-D leader.
The third worst drama goes to Bambino!.I became a fan of Jun after watching Gokusen and both Hana Yori Dango's. Bambino is proof that no matter how good and talented the lead actor is, he and the strong group of supporting cast can't overcome the weak script. The lethargic pace almost put me to sleep. I was hoping and waiting for something, anything, to advance the "storyline." Jun is quite good, as usual, but his crying and getting down on himself act in every episode got rather old and tired after the third episode. Most of all, Kitamura Kazuki was just plain creepy. His oddly strange Cheshire smile made my skin crawl.

Okay, I can't argue that these are the worst dramas ever (because there are many that I don't even bother to download based on their plot synopses alone), but these are a few that I was significantly disappointed with:
One Pound Gospel: I found Sister Angela to have zero personality and Hatanaka was kind of a borderline idiot, to put it bluntly, so I felt the "romance" failed. The side characters were relatively interesting, though; too bad they took a backseat to the 2 main characters...
Yukan Club: This was quite the chore to finish but I somehow managed. Bido Grandmarie's humorously over-the-top mannerisms were the only (barely) redeeming factor (in my opinion) but it's definitely not enough to carry an entire series.
Kirakira Kenshui: Maybe if you wail annoyingly at every minor setback, then the medical field is not for you: i.e. I found the lead actress-- or perhaps just the character she played-- incredibly irritating (dropped at ep04).
Love Revolution: I felt like this was a bland waste of ~12 hours. Although I like Fujiki Naohito (who played Suga), I still wanted Kyoko to end up with Yabuki the bartender/actor.
Zettai Kareshi: I'm not even a reader of the manga, so my complaints don't originate there. I just had a hard time seeing the romance in this-- they took too long to make Night human-like, and frankly Riiko annoys me. Yep, I guess I dislike (what I perceive to be) bland, meek, and/or ditzy female characters.
Gokusen 3: After seeing the original (loved it) and Season 2 (okay enough) this is just more of the same, rehashed, and I don't need to watch it (dropped halfway through ep02, wandered off to make a sandwich).
P.S. I noticed a lot of people are hating Hana-Kimi , and although I enjoyed it as a comedy, as a romance I have to agree that it failed. Nakatsu beats Sano anyday (in the drama, at least).

U know i'd just like 2 point out sth important, when we suddenly watch a somehow old drama (that aired in the 90's or so) after watching brand new ones, we should really put in mind that the drama is old while watching it, bec most of us go judging these ones by comparing them with newer ones which i think is absolutely unfair. I always put that in mind and that's why i'm not always surprised 2 find a not so good or even terrible but old drama rated on the top of the list (like GTO). it's simply bec the time it was aired is differs from now, also maybe people's tastes where different. |
I completely agree.
I found Beautiful Life, Long Love Letter, Kou Kou Kyoushi 2003, and Summer Snow all very boring. They also happen to be all highly rated dramas for many people. I don't think they are the worst doramas, but I think I watched them a couple years too late. I watched them after watching recent drama at that time, being HYD, Nobuta, of course I will find Beautiful Life etc a little bit slow.
So I think everyone should keep in mind when you are watching a drama and when that drama came out, before rating. [/b]

oooh! and yet she played this really gracefull widow in the Last Samurai.
Eventhough her character in Kmmi wa Petto was perceived as the forcefull type of woman, but she's quite fragile. Although it got its flaws I really like the drama and is one of the most unforgetable ones. I can even remember the details like the props that was used 
interesting.. Honey & Clover drama didn't bode well here. I've only seen the first episode but also find the characters not to my liking. Being a fan of the anime (and also enjoyed the boring yet beautiful live action movie starring my lovelies Aoi Yuu & Sakurai Sho) I can't help but compare. I guess I will not continue watching it afterall.
Hanakimi was fun! And it got Nakatsu & the dorm heads! like watching hyperactive monkeys in the zoo on crack 
Kurosagi belongs in this thread and should stay here. The worst.

Well, I have a high tolerance for jdorama, I suppose, because mostly I watch for language learning purposes. That said, there are definately some I love and can watch over and over and others that do become rather a drag to get through. It certainly helps if the leading men are worth watching even if the story line stinks.
The worst one, so far, I have had a hard time getting through is Love Revolution. I seem to keep trying to find other ones to watch instead and only watch this one when there is nothing else! It is so BORING and IRRITATING!
Anyway, of the ones others have seemed to disliked here, I did enjoy Kimi wo Petto and Zettai Kareshi. Yes, the lead actresses in both these dramas were annoying but the lead actors were so delicious to watch I couldn't wait for the next episodes. Zettai Kareshi actually made me very sad at the end, but I don't think there could have been any other ending that would make sense.
I just started watching Honey & Clover and so far, although I do agree with a lot of the opinions about this drama (especially about the guy who loves the older girl he can't have and the girl who loves him but he doesn't seem to give two s***s about) I think I will give it a go and continue to watch it. The weird artist savant is intriguing .... I have hopes for her.
