Hmm, kinda off-topic but is there a sountrack for this drama? I've been desperately trying to find one, but to no avail.

:cry: but let's still hope! I still think he might have a chance to live considering he wasn't stabbed in the chest. But the wound looked really serious and no scene of Shota in the last preview.....

Happy ending darnit! Shota needs to be EMPEROR!!!!!!!!!!!! oh and yea.....Rosa needs to become Jotei as well. :)

9 episodes for such a great series......nande?? did they cut off the initial number of episodes or was initially set on 9 episodes to begin with?

I notice quite a few of TV Asahi's dramas are only 9 episodes long, rarely over 10. I wonder if it's a matter of a particular time slot these dramas fall into in their schedule or if it's a formula Asahi feels works best for them.

at first i was going to watch it because of shota, but after watching the first ep. i find it interesting and started enjoying watching it.

I do think jotei is a good drama. :-)

Actually I prefer this serie has a tragic ending, I dunno why but I think I'll like it more than a 'happy' one ^^;

the more i think about it, Jotei has some dark drama themes.. (a little like Byakuyakou) maybe it'll end like Byakuyakou..
everyone dies at the end except for Tachibana, the Jotei
haha..or maybe not :goggle:

im missing the episode thats airing right now cause i was busy catching up with the last two episodes
getting real exciting huh!
Naoto is so cool saving ayaka and getting stabbed like that i hope he lives but part of me also hopes he dies to give another angle of character development for ayaka. I was also surprised that they kinda wrecked her reason for becoming a Jotei, the revenge part of it with her finding that her dad is actually a good person. Mokomichi episode was deffinatly one of the best (he makes a hot host ^_^)

the last episode will be next week, episode 10, not 9.
at least one more week to have something to look forward to, but to be honest I am scared how the ending would be.

Oh am so glad we have an extra episode. Thanks for clarifying that for us.
This ending better not be tragic
in the preview for 9 it seemed like he was ok at some point, but you never know.

<< New to this drama!

So I've been following Shota's career since HYD1 and yes, I did watch this because he was in it (also cuz I recognized Rosa from other dramas). At first I hesitated watching this because...lol this is gonna sound so stupid BUT I saw the picture before it was aired and the first thought that came to mind was "Ah man is this a dancing thing, is he helping her become a number one dancer?" Hey I saw a dancing dress and him in a suit with his hair tied, that was my first thought lol... I don't remember why I didn't read the synopsis, BUT I finally had enough time (in between all the other dramas I was watching and helping with subs) to watch and I'm SO HOOKED on this drama!

Now I'm watching this NOT because of Shota, but because it is SO good! I love the story line! I just started watching it yesterday too! I can't stop! (well until I've caught up to the latest episode) It's so addicting! GO AYAKA! The last few drama I've been watching have become so addicting (PropDai, HYD, Liar Game) Wow! :mrgreen: Sorry I'm just really excited about this drama! I can hardly contain myself lol :cry:

Ok so i have been hesitating to watch liar game, because although i remember him from HYD the impact was not as big as with Jotei. Now i really want toi watch him on this drama but am afraid his character might turn me off. Can someone just tell me if he is just a sissy who was framed and had to go to jail or a real bad boy who happens to have some sweet moments.....This will decide wether i will finally watch it for him or not.

He had a very good reason for going to jail. His character is overall likable: cool, revengeful, ruthless however he has a soft side when it comes to Nao (no matter how cool, revengeful and ruthless he is in the end he always ends up doing things the way Nao wants him to and somehow it seems no matter how many stupid things she does he never gets angry with her).

oh. Liar Game is a don't miss~ I totally recommend it because of the strategic braininess in the drama. and guess who carries out those mind-boogling strategies? Shota~ XD

nopes, not a sissy at all. but nor is he a bad boy.....he has his reasons for being the way he was. in all actuality, his character is very cool and collected......except when it comes to his past. but give this drama a try because who knows......you might like him even more for it. :)

I actually like this drama-it really surprised me considering the disappointed reviews it's been getting. Shota's character is so cool. I love his hair in this show (down or up). And the girl who plays Ayaka doesn't bother me that much. Some parts of her personality bother me but...

Well, the drama is at times ridiculously dramatic ("sudden" thunderstorms when people die or break up, people crushing tomatoes and water bottles in their fists, etc.), but I still find it entertaining. It's has a different plot than the standard drama. And it doesn't have another stupid "challenge" every episode like Hana Kimi (Even though I DO like that show, too--it just gets repetitive)

Does anyone know if there is a clubbox that has this show?

Does everyone ONLY watch for Matsuda Shota???
He is not that bad but I like Ayaka & Kaoru better!!
When Ayaka says "Fuzakunna!!!! " I just laugh because it's funny!!
For Hayami Mokomichi, he is most suitable for him as a role of host.

I heard that Episode Ratings in Kanto is quite low ( Hanazakari is the highest)
but Episode Ratings in Kansai is the highest for this season!!!

I'm Sorry that my english is really bad.

to tell the truth...I began the drama because of shota!! After watching LIAR GAME it was so natural for me to continue to support shota-chou... ( :-) don't apologize my english is not so good too... LOL)

But...now I'm watching because of JOTEI. :cheers: Awesome drama!! So to hear that Jotei has the highest ratings in Kansai make me so happy :thumleft: :thumleft:

:thumleft: JOTEI POWAAA!!! and of course SHOTA POWAAA!! :thumright: Sorry Rosa. :whistling:

@sanufi I think you are referring to a humidifier.

@jump I started to watch the drama because i liked the sypnosis but once i noticed that Shota was in it and fell in love with the first episode, there was no resisting.

I was curious about that steam thing as well. Isn't it already pretty humid there? Seems like pumping all that extra moisture into the air would make for some bad hair days.

I only really just started watching JDramas because of Nodame live action. I read that Jotei was pretty good so I gave it a chance. Now I'm absolutely in love with it. The girl fights and scheming bitchiness rule! Nothing like it on American TV. Lots of crazy eyes too. :goggle:

What other dramas are similar to this? I've run out of episodes to watch!

answer
its a humidifier the steam keeps moisture in the air which in turn stops your skin from drying out.

What amazing gallery, thank you so much!!!! *__*

I've just finished watching episode 9, and I have wet eyes yet. This drama killing me :cry:

i must admit this drama has a lot of lacks, first of all the acting is not so good IMHO, and often fall down in soap schemes, but... The whole result is charming, in any case. I love it :cry:

P.S. I'm choosing the captures for episodes 7,8,9 then I would watch 1 (no caps yet): I hope to post them this evening (in Italy 18.09 now ;) )

Nope. Only watching it because Maeda Ai's in it. Kind of funny to see her in such a part for once (after all the other things she's done). Good to see her back in a series as more than just a special guest for one episode. Seems that her time at university's almost done.

Other than Shota, I'm actually more interested in the storyline and the character's development in this series.

I'll definitely watch this when it's completed. Hopefully, there are still seeders :P

@kandi: no worries dear. this drama won't disappoint. The plot developments and storyline were well written and "well-developed". There's revenge and forgiveness and so much more here. It's rare to see any drama focused mainly on the Ginza and/or Tokoyo night life. I must admit that while the more mature themes aren't intended for the younger audience, one can learn quite a lot from "Jotei". :)

Even though I like Shota, I am watching Jotei to see whether she can do it. I hope that she can

I think that we already have an idea that she
would be able to do it since in every episode introduction she makes the appearance of an empress.....the big question is will Naoto be around and how will it all develop.
That is what has me in pins and needles with this drama, am eager to find out.

i just watched the last episode
dont read if you dont wanna know how it ends
im a little dissapointed that they went down the road of nauto having a serious illness but it wasnt a bad ending i spose. During the episode that old guy she first had sex with died and her father admitted on national tv that Ayaka was his daughter and gave a big speech about it and was clapped by all in the end. Evil girl and her father admitted defeat after being utterly shocked by this. Ayaka opened her own place and got some good girls to work due to nautos scouting. Nauto left to live by himself by the sea and mama gave Ayaka the address so she went to him and they lived together. Then she found out she was pregnant and ran home to tell nauto but he was was peacefulling sitting outside dead. It goes to a year later and shes fully become a jotei and a healthy baby girl?

Ok so i finally watched the final episode. I finally got to cry on this drama, but i felt it was a good ending so am quite satisfied. I felt it was better than those dramas that leave you in the end guessing or having to imagine what will happen in the future or how things should be. In this drama we had an END.
