Luv Erika x Miura. Kakkoii-est and kawaii-est young stars. A dream pairing for jdrama fans. I personally wouldn't have Natsumi's EQ to be as strong and calm if in her position, for Shuji is a total ass-hole fiance. Hard to understand Saeki-Shuji supporters exist out there. It's nauseating that a mal...

joykimlee

Pls recomend kdramas like Soulmate - not draggy but still so romantic. Remind of Satorare jdrama. Thx to all subbers. Shin Dong Wook is super sexy.

huh? densha otoko and sunao? Its the 2cn (densha) and tweeting (sunao) that bear similarities for me. They find encouragement online ... a form of release, of what they don't feel necessary to speak aloud but may inform netfriends. I guess we're kinda doing a similar thing at DA posting current com...

I voted but with little enthusiasm for Kimura's pairing. Instead i'm looking forward to Shota & Shinohara pairing cos they sizzle on screen.

joykimlee

Hooked on this show. Not the most addictive show but i love how it really portrays life as it is. Kinda remind me Densha Otoko but with more realistic everyday personalities and characters going through the ups and downs of young adult life at work.

joykimlee

Wow this is one of my top 5 fav jdramas ever and it's getting a 2nd season! Luv it. If anyone here has read the shojo may probably fill us in on the story.

joykimlee

Kinda disappointed Ryoko seem like 2nd to Chi Ling. I like Kumutaku but am purely watching this for Ryoko Shinohara. If there's really gona be only 7 eps, then i feel sad for Ryoko who seem to be more a supporting role only here. In fact i'm really surprised how the story so far seem to revolve so m...

joykimlee

Love Shota with Shinohara. Disapointed Shumei got so much screentime. 1st ep not as captivating as Kimutaku's previous dramas. Shall continue watching for Shinohara.

joykimlee

I so love Shinohara Ryoko ... my absolute fav jdrama actress. Does Shota fall for Shinohara in this drama? If yes, then i'll be romantic drama heaven.

joykimlee

Ueno's curly hair look kinda ajuma to me. Nevertheless cant wait to watch Ueno and Eita again. Btw i didnt know they paired up so many times already. Can only remember them in Nodame Cantabile and Last Friends.

joykimlee

Another Kano Miho blockbuster jdrama for me. If you loved Magerarenai Onna as much as i do, then you should also watch Hataraki Man and Kiina. Kano Miho's a tie for my fav jactress along with Ryoko Shinohara.

Fav of spring 2009:
1) Mr. Brain - kimutaku power
2) Konkatsu - funny n hilarious
3) Atashinchi no Danshi - reverse harem
4) Godhand Teru - live action
5) Boss - time filler

joykimlee

Anyone know who is the new vampire coming out in ep 8 to challenge Ayumu's first bite on Makoto? Subs on viikii r coming out much faster now ... thx viikii subbers. Addictive story!

I'm liking Erika Toda more n more since Code Blue n Ryuusei no Kizuna. She seems a much more diverse actress than i thought when i first saw her in Death Note then Liar Game.

Ur best bet is to learn to download from DA ... it's not too hard. Otherwise try Dailymotion, Tudou, Youku or Aznv.tv ... enjoy.

Wow another Mokomichi jdrama to look fwd to. Luved him in all his dramas. Watched Kato Rosa in Jotei first but only started to like her in Change.

My fav of the season. Simply hilarious n heart warming live action suitable for whole family to watch. Patiently waiting for ep 10 subs.

Stopped watching Kimutaku for a few yrs dew to my growing acquired taste for silly high school/college dramas. Gave this drama a try this spring cos the lead's a school teacher. Surprisingly, i liked it very much - entertaining and inspiring.

joykimlee

Luv the cast. But none of them look grown up enuf to b doctors. And none of them look intellectual enuf to even b interns or trainees. On the plus side, Toda's character seem much more appealing here than in Liar Game or Death Note. But both Toda n Gaki still look like high school kids.

Aoi Yu in Osen has numerous great hairdos. And my fav hairstyle of hers was in the Honey & Clover movie.

Started learning nihongo for my interest in jdramas. But it ain't easy to learn since i prefer to put more time into watching jdramas than learning the kanas.

Sad to know US remaking this. Noone can beat Matsuyama Kenichi's portrayal of L. Regardless, i'll still watch it for the sake of Death Note.
