I thought ep 7 was really sad... but things are moving quickly... Poor Mako, she's really down in the dumps. Lost her job and the office gossip is that she two-timed Kizaki and Yamamoto. Her former-crush Kizaki is only interested in her sister and she gets an earful from the bitter ex-boyfriend. The...

If any of you read Koyanagi Yu's personal blog, he just posted an entry as Takei Daisuke yesterday. Pls pardon any poor translation: http://ameblo.jp/you829/entry-11090081606.html Good evening, this is Takei Daisuke. Recently, I heard there were a lot of messages of support for me in my friend Koyan...

emmy21

garnet07, thanks! am starting to watch yankee kun now and its really funny! But Koyanagi Yu does look rather different in that show. I also realized he was in Hanamizuki which I watched a few times, but didn't recognize him as he looked totally different there as well! I hope the character Takei con...

emmy21

Just watched episode 6... Aww.. I feel so sorry for poor Takei-san! He's such a decent guy! And so much cooler, taller and better looking than Yu as well! However, I guess it can't be helped that Emi likes Yu so much. If only the call didn't interupt her. Takei and Emi's relationship was progressing...

emmy21

Thank you for making this thread! I absolutely adore this drama but thought nobody else was watching! So so many things I love about this drama.. the very real story lines, the chemistry between the 3 leads (Karina and Yuriko's acting in particular are really good. Karina is adorably awkward, almost...

emmy21

Finally caught up on watching until ep 9. I don't find the cases all that clever. However the jokes are still so funny, and I love love all the Nodate-Osawa interaction! Ep 7 and 8 had the best Nodate-Osawa scenes! Especially the flashback scenes where Nodate and Osawa were detective buddies and the...

emmy21

I'm satisfied with the ending as well. But like noshadow, I have a lot of unanswered questions. I actually watched the episode on keyhole on monday, and thought I was missing some details cos of the bad connection. Waited till I could watch it again properly. The last episode totally skipped over th...

emmy21

Aww.. I really loved episode 8. So many sweet moments and the ending was just perfect! Issy, I feel the same!! If only this was the last episode! Not really looking forward to next week cos there's lots of trouble ahead based on the preview... Next week, the tabloid reporter hounds everyone and Kami...

emmy21

Just watched ep 6 on Keyhole. The quality is really terrible so I couldn't hear a lot of the dialogue properly. However major major major spoile r ahead.... RIP poor Ryota. :cry: Anyway Risa was the one who told Maria that Kengo paid for her liver. RIsa spills the beans to Kamiya sensei, who promptl...

emmy21

Episode 5 was good, but a tad melodramatic... I agree with Issy and Yuzaki about Maria. She was really acting like a spoilt child. Even the way she treated Ryota, throwing a fit and asking him why he didn't ask why she was upset, was just childish. In comparison, I really like Ryota's character. He'...

emmy21

Forgot to mention this before, the two times when Risa said Kengo was lying made me think. I thought he probably meant what he said the first time. The second time he probably wanted to get her away from the clutches of her brother. It's just that Risa's defence mechanism doesn't allow her to hope/...

emmy21

Opps, sorry I edited my post a little. Wasn't sure if the name on the gravestone is a male or female after all? Kensuke Mizuno... Yes I agree with you about Risa. I think she is a genuine person at heart, but just doesn't know how to express herself and show it. Exactly, I thought I read earlier tha...

emmy21

Just watched ep 4. About Maria... "If your Dad and that person were still alive, perhaps they would be able to help Maria?" That's what the mum Kazuko said. Maria is supposed to be 17 years old now. I guess this woman is the mum of Maria? Maybe the dad had a mistress but she (and the dad?)...

emmy21

My dictionary said kurione is a sea butterfly or sea angel. So I just kinda thought it was a complimentary term. Sort of like calling her an angel from the sea since the first time they saw her she was on the other side of the aquarium glass. LOL. And yes, it was very thoughtful of her to colour her...

emmy21

arakira, I didn't catch that part earlier! Just rewatched it.. The aunt was saying something about the obligation to help Maria, before her husband stopped her. Perhaps she was going to blurt out that that they don't really have any obligation to help as Maria is not a blood relative? Hmm.. if thats...

emmy21

Hi Issy, arakira!

emmy21

arakira, thanks for the song and translation! I've played the song over and over all day. Its really lovely. :) Issy, yeah it is too easy that Risa is found compatible as a donor, but I guess otherwise that would be the end of the story. Hmm.. does anyone think that maybe the secret Kengo is trying ...

emmy21

For those who are very impatient (like me!), a low quality version can be seen on pandora.tv. http://channel.pandora.tv/channel/video.ptv?ch_userid=keigoo&prgid=39868016 Ep 3 was good... for those who don't mind spoilers, the overall gist based on what i could catch is below: Kengo and Risa regi...

emmy21

Just watched ep 2 as well. I'm liking this drama so far. Initially I wasn't sure if this would be any good, and thought the pairing was rather odd and a love story between the two wouldn't be believable. But there's pretty good chemistry between Kengo and Risa so far, and I'm hoping this will turn o...

emmy21

Episode 6 was really funny, cute and just awesome! :P So so many ROFL and funny moments: - The ohagi hanakuso and cat poop scenes were just soooo hilarious! - Hotaru's "monomane taikai". I dunno.. was she trying to "seduce" him initially, but when Bucho thought she was doing the ...

emmy21

thanks for all the files! :) now for episode 5...... I had a sense of deva ju watching ep 5 as poor Hotaru was dumped in Season 1 by Makoto for the exact same reason that she was trying too hard to change herself for him. However, I don't think Bucho is being wishy washy. I think he just wants Hotar...

emmy21

Season 2 just keeps getting better and better! I loved episode 4 too! Whoever decided to cast Mukai Osamu is a genius. He is just soooo lovabale. If there was no Bucho, he would definitely be the perfect match for Amemiya. The last scene where he said he'd fallen for Amemiya. Gosh.. my heart almost ...

emmy21

I'm hoping the drama picks up from ep 3 onwards. The first episode was pretty good, but episode 2 was really silly plot-wise. I'm also not a fan of MBMH at all so was hoping for less overacting from Nagase and something more subtle in the lines of Tiger & Dragon or Ryusei no Kizuna, two of my fa...

emmy21

Just watched episode 5. I don't think this series is all that bad... the story is getting quite interesting esp with yuki's memory slowly coming back. oguri shun's acting is really good in this show and there is starting to be a bit more chemistry btw the main leads. The bad parts are still bad thou...

emmy21

I watched episode 1 twice, once without subs, and once with subs. I actually quite like it! First time watching, I was really annoyed by Mizushima Hiro's character, who seemed really unprofessional and hopeless at being a cop. Even the fight scenes were laughingly bad. However, I was surprisingly im...

emmy21

Aww... can't believe that Buzzer Beat is over! But it was a really nice last episode. Happy endings for everyone. Yay for Naoki and Riko! :) And even though Natsuki was really detestable the last few episodes, I thought the scene where Utsu asked her to date him and they could go and eat cakes toget...

emmy21

Issy, you're so funny! yeah, i would be totally annoyed by all the loud basketball and violin sounds! LOL! About Natsuki and Riko I actually thought it was quite a nice setup for Natsuki to see the Naoki keychain on Riko's violin case. Natsuki was around when Riko shouted at Naoki during the match, ...

emmy21

hi arakira! yup, you got it right. riko did tell mai that she thinks shuji suits her better than utsu. i'm also wondering how their relationship will develop next week. they're a really cute couple. i'm still surprised that shuji was so brave to confess to mai so openly knowing that she has a major ...

emmy21

My japanese isn't the best either, but for the window scene, I think she said: She would no longer kiss him, touch him with her index finger, be overly familiar, hit his cheek (i suppose she means slap), and not go within 5 metres of him... so please don't say that they shouldn't meet anymore And th...

emmy21

My favourites are:

BOSS
Love Revolution - love the Ken Hirai song, and all of main leads are so good looking.
Pride
IWGP - awesome song by SADS

emmy21

sweetcandy, regarding Naoki's reaction....

emmy21

About Natsuki, Kawasaki and Naoki.... I did feel quite sympathetic towards Natsuki in ep 5 as she seemed devastated and I could somewhat empathise with why she was unhappy with Naoki in the relationship. However, the way she behaved in ep 6 was really low when she asked Yoyogi to contact her when ba...

emmy21

Just watched episode 6. It was good! This drama definitely deserves better ratings. Am glad that both Riko and Naoki have begun to realise their feelings for each other, and Riko was honest enough to tell Kawasaki. Kawasaki-san is really playing the psychological games eh... making Riko feel guilty,...

emmy21

My all time favourite is Long Vacation. I still love re-watching it even after so many years. The chemistry between Kimura and Yamaguchi Tomoko was really amazing. I think Kimura doesn't get the credit he deserves cos it's easy to say he's just a pop idol, and he's just playing different variations ...

emmy21

rurikomai.. did u watch that on keyhole? you must have much better connection that i do. i had a massive headache trying to watch it, and it didn't even show that scene due to the lagging!

can't wait till i can watch it properly!

emmy21

I loved episode 5!! of course, the ending was so cute! i liked that naoki hugged riko first, and then riko hugged back. i did think it was weird for riko to run to the stadium just becos naoki cried. but i guess it's quite in line with her character. other bits of episode 5 i liked: - shuji! so ador...

emmy21

Anyway, about Saki Aibu, I actually quite like her in this show (found her terribly annoying in Utahime and Zettai Kareshi). Maybe she fits the bad girl role? I personally think she's acting quite well!

emmy21

I too was really hoping for something to happen between Nodate and Eriko. Even at the last scene, was wondering if Nodate would just appear with his suitcase too? Haha. I need to watch the episodes again, but my impression was that Eriko was going to study more on profiling in the US? I don't think...

emmy21

Thanks, lullabye. I just watched the opening of episode 2. It was hilarious... The students were reading essays about their father. Asuka waited till his mum arrived, and his essay started well, about how he doesn't have a dad, but yet he's not lonely as he has a gentle and caring mum. Then he goes ...

emmy21

I couldn't wait and watched episode 2 on youtube. I guess each episode is 30 mins each week? Lol, is this how they plan to stretch the show till the next season? I'm liking the show so far and it's has its funny moments, but 30mins seems a bit short for much to happen. I think Kimura Ryo appeared in...

emmy21

I'm really enjoying this drama so far. I actually didn't expect to continue watching after the first episode as it doesn't have any of my favourite actors and I'm not into basketball, but somehow the story is just quite compelling. It does have a Long Vacation feel, and I really like how the story a...

emmy21

Yes, still no subs. But the jdrama weblog has quite a detailed synopsis of all the episodes so that helps a lot if you've watched the raw but aren't sure of all the details.

Ep 4 aired on Thurs (7 May). The torrent is up already.

There's an english synopsis of ep 4 on jdrama weblog :

emmy21

I'm enjoying watching BOSS so far. The plot can be improved, but out of the 3 dramas this season I'm watching, I look forward to BOSS the most each week. :) Episode 2 was quite suspenseful, although Ep 1 and 3 were a tad slow. To be honest, the crime storyline does get a bit repetitive (or mb my jap...

emmy21

Some observations: So it can be assumed that Kanon have been molested for 1 year beginning from that Christmas. The sweater her father was wearing that night was light brown, the same color of the one who entered Kanon's room. So I think the molester was the father That's interesting... It didn't o...

emmy21

my thoughts on episode 5.... I think I have to agree with josean that it's looking like Yoji molested Kanon when young. Kanon seemed to be looking directly at Yoji in the photograph when she had her panic attacks. Yoji could have killed the parents in a sudden rage becos of a quarrel. If the scene w...

emmy21

Does anyone know what Mizuki told Kanon that has her so upset at the end? Mizuki told her that she knows all about Kanon's brother, and in exchange for not telling Junya, she wants Kanon to quietly disappear as Junya already has Kiyoka as his "cross" to care for. She said Junya has such a...

emmy21

Just watched ep4. Hmm... So the reporter thinks that the one who murdered the parents is actually Kanon. I don't think he's dead either. I'm not so sure if Kanon was actually abused by her father. She seems to have lots of happy memories about her childhood, other than not being able to remember wha...

emmy21

I'm surprised the ratings are so poor. Am quite liking this drama so far. Based on my understanding.... I feel that Kanon went into Jun's house after seeing the housekeeper leave to help finish cleaning the house. The housekeeper had to leave hurriedly due to an emergency with her dad (it happened b...

emmy21

Was eagerly waiting for episode 6 this week.... I preferred episode 5 but it was nice to see Fujiki in a suit :P Who is that woman who has Okamura's house key? From the episode 7 trailer, it looks like that strange woman from the marriage agency. In the earlier episodes when Satoko first went to the...

emmy21

I think the 10 secs of Madonna showed her watching the show (or probably just snippets of it). She didn't look that impressed though. lol.

emmy21

Yup, I agree. Kato Masaya looks quite good. The very rugged adventurer sort of look. He also must be really tall cos he towered over Amami Yuki who is quite tall already. If Kanasugi-san is the benchmark for Satoko's broad shoulders criteria, it's no wonder Okamura falls short. :P Yeah, Fujiki is lo...

emmy21

Just watched episode 6... some thoughts The beginning was really quite creepy, with the stabbed apple and burning of Michiru's school album in the sink. Michiru was acting almost brainwashed when Takeru found her in the apartment and at the cafe. The story seems a bit messy though. I wished they bro...

emmy21

I thought the first episode was quite good. The big names all acted well as expected, and Fukatsu Eri and Kato Rosa were pretty cute. And though I didn't understand all of the political stuff, the story is still pretty interesting and I'll probably continue watching the next few episodes. Can't get ...

emmy21

This is slowly becoming one of my favourite dramas this season. Initially felt that the drama was too slow, but it's really growing on me. You really don't need to be 'around 40' to enjoy this show. Episode 5 was really good! Fujiki Naohito and Amami Yuki really have such good chemistry with each ot...
