Dear all, it seems as if the "community" never wanted a prolonging of this site :-( . It's a pity though :pale: . But I, after I initiated this thread, need to be realistic and our (including mine) efforts :salut: never crystallised into some more fundamental. So, though heartbroken :fain...

I haven't watched many dramas this year. I'd like to at least check out the raws of Prison Officer and Umi ni Furu, but have not been able to find them. I'd like to check out Shi no Zouki if that gets subbed.

hey9

Personality. There are plenty of guys I find initially unattractive and then the more I get to know them, they become more attractive.

hey9

One thing I noticed is that the family members actually look like each other. Yoriko looks like her dad, Takumi looks like his dad (watch the final scene, I was kinda shocked how much he looked like his dad). Even the child actors look like their adult versions. They did such a good job with the cas...

hey9

Ep. 9: Omg I thought that was the final episode lol. Most unclimactic ending ever XD I wish they had just added an extra episode. There was too much going on. I agree with yuizaki, the love confessions felt tacked on. Part of the problem is the Yoriko/Washio and Takumi/Kaori pairings have no chemist...

hey9

I don't know if it's based on those movies, but there is a drama called Hito ni Yasashikuthat sounds like a somewhat similar premise.

hey9

There are some dramas that just have rapid-fire dialogue, and it doesn`t necessarily have to do with being a slow reader - I get visual strain very easily, so I have to take breaks if there's a lot of 2-line dialogue in a show. If you use VLC, you can slow video down: right-click -> Playback -> Spee...

hey9

Ugh I had a reply and I forgot to save the draft. Anyways... Ep 3: - Sotaro is gross. - Nakajima Yuto is really pretty lol. It would be good if he didn't overpluck his eyebrows. - On paper, Takumi seems like an obvious guy to despise. Even when you see him, he's this pretentious creep. But I'm still...

hey9

The last time I was really interested (or remember) watching a jdrama rom-com was Sengyou Shufu Tantei and that was maybe the worst ending I've ever seen in a jdrama, really scared me off of rom-coms. But I'm hoping I have better luck with this. I recently watched Suzuki-sensei, and while I didn't l...

hey9

Doesn't make a difference to me. Logic fail is logic fail. And to be honest, if the drama is following the manga even with all these loopholes, that doesn't say much for the source material (which I haven't read). As shkendan said, some of the details are illogical. The drama is also filled with a ...

jdrama fans unite! lol http://46.165.216.86/~fansub/fansub/cache/d/de/Jdrama_Fansub_Map_2015.html A lot of dramas aren't being subbed this season. For myself, I'm really hoping Keibuho Sugiyama Shintaro and Dakara Kouya are subbed. For those that don't fansub, these requests are the least we can do...

hey9

My thoughts on the ending: For me, Trick's appeal has never been about the story. The wordplay is always lost on me, too. It's always been about the characters. I expected more - I wanted something akin to "BANANA BOAT!". They didn't properly explain how Yamada survived the blast, or if s...

hey9

First two eps looked interesting although I have very little idea what's going on (I forgot most of the synopsis lol). Hoping someone picks this up, the cast is really solid. One thing that weirds me out with jdramas is when two people (who you know will end up getting together) meet up earlier in t...

It's a pain, but I just want to make sure any potential contributors realize that it's the ONLY way to re-seed.

I have a question - there are quite a few WOWOW SPs that were originally aired on tv but eventually released in theatres. Would these count as TV specials (allowed) or movies (not allowed)? I do have quite a bit of dramas in my hdd over the years as well. However, there are some dramas whereby I've ...

hey9

Imo, the chemistry of ALL the characters are indeed the strength of this drama. They even already have their strength chemistry since day 1, and till now. Even with gaps during shooting, their chemistry is still strong as ever. However, the joke (particularly the joke that plays with japanese word/...

Some issues for uploaders with a torrent page like the coalgirls one (especially older shows): - non-standard resolution (i.e. not 480p/720p/1080p, etc.) - unknown source (i.e. don't know if it's tv or dvd rip) - I find it helpful to know which group encoded a file.

Everyone in the d-a threads seems to have lists of what they can upload. Why don't we have centralized lists so people can check what does and doesn't need to be uploaded. It would also inadvertently work as an "upload request" list for dramas that don't yet have torrents. It should be edi...

I'm in. Will it be one person running it? Will they be willing to devote as many years as Ruroshin has? What about the legal issues? d-addicts wasn't a tracker so I'm still confused with what happened (maybe downloadable links are now illegal?). I hope Ruroshin can talk with the new site creator if ...

I'm pretty sure a lot of the files that end up here are actually from private torrent sites. So really, you should be thankful for them. They have their own reasons for uploading there vs public sites. If you can't keep a 1:1 ratio on a site like AT (which is a really easy site to maintain a ratio o...

Thanks. Is the Yabe spin-off any good? EDIT: and AsiaTorrents looks like it's always going to be invite-only for new regs. Haven't watched Yabe, but heard it's pretty good. Maybe I should check it out, too... AsiaTorrents is actually pretty frequent with their open signups compared to other torrent...

TRICK is such a big series I'm not even sure how much of it I've seen. I think I only ever saw the first three series' and one movie... or special? Or a movie and a special? I was never quite able to find movie files and/or subs of the more recent stuff online, though admittedly I haven't really lo...

Nice cast...I've never watched a taiga drama before, maybe I'll check this out.

Final episode: I watched the raws when they originally came out, and have spent the past two years thinking Chinami and Yusuke's relationship ended with that letter. I had no idea Yusuke told her they could continue writing letters, or that she told him she fell in love with him :blink The power of ...

hey9

similar to you, I'm not very good with undeserved forgiveness or cheesy morality type of ending, but I'm glad Alice's ending wasn't at all cheesy. It feels more real. Ah, I think you should hide your Border spoiler, some people might still be watching that (not me lol) The more that I think about i...

Ep 10: I was under the impression that Oi-chan's real daughter was the one who worked at his restaurant, oops :lol I think him being the final one became obvious when there was no one else to suspect (and I think the scriptwriters are too good to throw in some random new bad guy). If I were Bandai, ...

Ratings aren't indicative of quality. IMO this has been a fantastic season in terms of quantity of interesting dramas with quality actors.

Ep. 6 Freaking Hoshino! Unravelled Asumi's plan over some stupid guy that no one gives a crap about! Augh...to go down over such a frivolous thing, I would be out for Hoshino's blood lol. Although I understand Miura being between a rock and a hard place, she needs to atone for what she did - she hel...

I really hope DoA is able to continue with their releases and aren't affected too much by this, they have the best quality 1280x720 files

hey9

Yey revenge dramas! I haven't seen one in a while. Agree about the great pacing. I usually dislike first episodes - they always make them extra long and (imo) end up being slow-paced and seeming like the writer creates filler scenes to make up for the length. This one didn't waste any time. I don't ...

NGB has rules regarding their files? I did not know that :blink (well, tbh, I don't even know where they originally upload them, I just find them on clubbox). I've uploaded a few of their older files. Do you know what their rules state specifically? There is some info here: http://www.d-addicts.com...

Has Xraymind quitted doing the upload? Not as far as I know. But I think he usually just does the NGB releases, which are a special case since they have rules about when/how their stuff can be uploaded publicly. NGB has rules regarding their files?

About the chronological of Trick, you can find it in the http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Trick (See the "Notes" section) If I'm not mistaken, it should be (in order): 1. Season 1 - 8 Sep 2000 2. Season 2 - 22 Mar 2002 3. Trick: The Movie - 9 Nov 2003 4. Season 3 - 18 Dec 2003 5. Special - 13 No...

Triendl isn´t a good actress, but at least she isn´t hamming up her scenes constantly, so I´m okay with her. Apart from Kiriyama´s limited expressions (angry, bland and smilling - always in the same manner - he can´t do more), he is constantly trying veeeery hard to look crazy, which is simply anno...

hey9

Ah well, I watched all episodes up to now, so only the last one on Saturday is left. The main disappointment for me is that Kiriyama Ren and Yoshizawa Ryo are such terrible actors, up to the point that they are really ruining scenes with their overacting. :/ Another thing is that all characters, wi...

I just started watching and since the eps are so short, I've already finished episode 6. I'm kind of surprised no one's been murdered yet (besides the news reports on the radio). That leaves 3 episodes. I'm inclined to think Wataru is just an artistic weirdo with incestuous leanings rather than a ps...

hey9

I know there are at least 3 versions of season 1 out (dvd raw, TV-nihon hardsub, episodes joined into 5 stories) - can anyone tell me which is the best quality? Also, is the movie chronologically before the final SP, or the other way around? I don't want to watch the SP and then find out I've missed...

hey9

No standout, but I'm surprised about Kinkyu Torishirabeshitsu. I haven't heard much people talk about it, but it's ratings are increasing and it's keeping pace with Ashita and Saigo.

hey9

Do people still use Share? I've been trying to download a few files that I couldn't find on Perfect Dark or clubbox, and there's so little progress after a week. One file has 14 MB downloaded, the others are still at 0.

Last ep I loved Abe's confession. I'm the person who pairs the main character with the weird character, sometimes they're not even supposed to even remotely considered a love interest. Aoki is bland and uninteresting, and I think Mikumo is better looking. I lol'd when she confessed, and I lol'd at M...

This is now in my recommended jdramas list. Everything in this show hits the right notes for me. Even my dislike for Eita has 180'd. (On a sidenote, I also recently 180'd on Tamaki Hiroki after seeing him in Kagi no Kakatta. I now think all Japanese actors I dislike should play aimless drifters at o...

Oh man, I just remembered this drama after looking through my hard drive. I completely agree with ihatedsengyou lol. I don't mind dramas that are bad from the start - at least you know to stop watching early. It's dramas like this that I get personally invested in that are the problem. They complete...

I know fansubbing is strictly a volunteer effort, but translating Matsuda Ryuhei doramas ought to be THE LAW. :lol I`m going to watch the movie first (alas English subs are nowhere to be found). Then I`ll enjoy the incomprehensibility of the television series. :D I`m in total agreement with the Eit...

hey9

I was shocked by how skinny she looks in Shoten. She used to be so cute and a healthy skinny. Now she looks straight up anorexic

hey9

Is there any english subs for either the movie or the show? From what I saw of the first episode, it seems like a pretty funny and slice-of-life style drama (with an appropriate amount of weirdness thrown in). Ryuhei Matsuda can't really do anything wrong in my eyes, and this is the first time I've ...

hey9

@lullabye - thanks for the blog rec! I am using that and the official website episode summaries to scrape by lol. Kind of weird that Google translates the title to "Sleeping MILF" XD Language aside, Yusuke and Chinami have really great chemistry. Usually with these older female younger mal...

Does anyone know where to find Japanese subs of this? I'm really interested in watching this, even if I have to use google translate for the subtitles. I wish I knew! I've been reading Japanese bloggers in order to figure out the parts I'm not understanding. I'm half tempted to buy the book of the ...

Ep 8 Ya I definitely don't think Seri's gonna end up with Jinnai, unless Fumi dies or something. Poor Jinnai...that kiss was awkward and painful. I felt like this episode started veering into typical drama territory for me. My prediction for the finale: Chihaya will probably help make sure her husba...

Ep 7: ^I agree, just didn't like Jojo very much this episode. The worst part was when Jin wanted to do something about Fumi hitting Serina, and Jojo was like "this is a matter between a man and a woman, don't get involved." I just thought that was so stupid on his part. No, Fumi wasn't rea...

hey9

Ep 6 ^The pic was hilarious, I love the idea of Jin secretly buying the photo while he sends Seri off to investigate >.< The part where Jin tries to cover up Seri being in his office by kicking that table killed me, Fumi was just like "let's get away from this weirdo" I love how they went ...

hey9

Yeah, I think the most annoying thing is that it's not uncommon in jdramas. Forgiveness trumps everything, even if the person has done really horrible things. If a person doesn't accept the apology, they are painted as a horrible person :glare: I think Seri is slowly spiralling into a mental breakdo...

hey9

Ep. 5 I got so irritated with Seri in this episode. Why did she want Jin to help Suzune? His "special person" cheats on him with his friend, they both run away, and then she comes crawling back asking for money a few years later? GTFO. If the only person you can go to for money problems is...

hey9

Ep. 4 Wowowow. I was not expecting that. Seriously, even though I wanted Jin and Mari together, I was not expecting that. The weird thing is, I don't hate Fumi or the Chief's character after the kiss. And then Jin seeing them in the elevator, ~uwaaah! I love how they lull the viewer into a false sen...

hey9

Ep 3: I am liking Fumi-kun more and more. Him throwing those little snacks at her was very cute. Next episode preview looked interesting, with him kissing the boss. I am even starting to like the boss. I like that most of the characters are not so two-dimensional, it's not just good vs. bad. I was s...

hey9

^Thanks for posting the blog link! Reading it makes me cheer for the Seri/Jin pairing even more lol.

Serina not making right turns is just fleshing out her character I think. It's more evidence that she never went out of her comfort zone, and also maybe that she didn't have much faith in herself.

hey9

^Yep, I agree. There are a lot of good shows with low ratings while average dramas with Johnnys get higher ratings. If they can stay ~10% viewership I think that's good. I'm starting to like Fumi-kun more, since it seems more evident now that he and the father-in-law are plotting something. He also ...

hey9

Aw, I like her voice lol. I'm a big fan of hers though, so take that with a grain of salt. First episode also exceeded my expectations. I thought this was gonna be one of her fluffier dramas, but I really like her character. I am not a fan of Fujiko Naohito, so I am not cheering for them to work thr...

Tegoshi has actually grown a bit on me, he looks older now lol. Maybe that's why. Still meh at acting though.

hey9

I haven't been too invested in this drama and the first few episodes were just okay, but I thought episode 4 was good and 5 was excellent. A little bit Silence of the Lambs. The only thing I don't like is Yuki. She's supposed to be their leader but she's so mousy. Everyone always talks over her. Sta...

Wow...most depressing SP ever. Moving on....

hey9

So what is everyone's overall opinion on Kyoko Fukada's acting/character in this? I actually think she's a good actress, but I haven't been a big fan of her more serious stuff. I'm undecided on whether to watch this or not.

Best drama: Mother
Best wtf: Atami no Sousakan
Best romance: Juunen Saki mo Kimi ni Koishite (honorable mention: Massugu na Otoko)
Best comedy: Kaibutsu-kun

Still watching a few, but these are my favs so far. I'm really liking GM Odore Doctor and Ogon no Buta, but I haven't finished those yet.

Watching this for Tabe Mikako, I love her deadpan face.

Not thrilled about Tegoshi, hopefully his balls have dropped since I last saw him.
