LaLaLaDRAMA

Although I didn't see finish the whole series, I agree with you Zweihander11! I think the background location etc is very calm and relaxing. Hey Tsuki! No, I have it all downloaded, but have not got around to watching it because school started. But I did watch episode 9 just now. I know you watched ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Takeru is not just being a good friend, he's in love with Miyuki too right? I just wish they'd sorted things out there.. I mean, it's not real life, everything must happen for a reason in a tv show, so why bring it up if they were gonna get interrupted? argh! Wow, I completely forgot about Takeru l...

LaLaLaDRAMA

So true! It was pointless and annoying. I mean the beginning was a bit funny when the whole crowd abandons Sohei and Miku in the house, I thought there was a tension, even when Miku claims she's gotten over Sohei. Did I not understand Takeru properly? Or did he just bring up the hug scene but not s...

LaLaLaDRAMA

So I watched episode 8: I felt like this episode was pretty pointless.. Right when I thought they were going to get to the bottom of Hayato + Miyuki situation, I see the name of sponsors rolling at the bottom. The episode passed by so quickly without going anywhere. The highlight of the episode was ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

And episode 8 hasn't been uploaded yet... So according to TokyoHive, Sprout and Ghost Mama weren't aired last Saturday because there was some charity show on and they had to make room for it. Which is why there was no episode :D But there'll be one along tomorrow!! I can't wait to sort things out w...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Here's the password 6EWe6A7u6a :D I'm on episode six now and it's totally awesome. The lead guy is Taisuke Fujigaya from Kis-my-ft2 yet another Johnny band :P And the tall dude from the beginning is also in Yankee-kun to Megane-chan which is the first drama I ever watched and I totally loved!!! He ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Yes! I watched Beginners! first episode. I want to download the torrent but it is password protected and I can't seem to open the file on my laptop. But its on my to watch list. I liked the feel of the drama. I really think that tall dude in the class is hot! Hopefully he get many scenes. Also, I've...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Probably, I read this article about it in the guardian, apparently, Johnny's formula for idols is this. "Girls tend to look for biys who're the complete opposite of their fathers, not fat, sweaty, manly and bearded." I was watching Kitayama Hiromitsu's documentary yesterday and he says he...

LaLaLaDRAMA

The anime sounds interesting! Well, its good that the drama has its own spin to it so that it isn't predictable for people who already read the manga. LOL and I'm glad I wasn't the only one distracted with the close up shots. And about Johnnies...I have to admit. When I see an "idol-looking&quo...

LaLaLaDRAMA

the story is getting better :D my thoughts on ep 7: and based on he preview, the next episode would be soooo exciting ne? :D we might finally know what's the real deal between Hayato and Miyuki (or was I the only one curious about that? :whistling: Yes, I agree! I was curious about it too!! From wh...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I know!! Awesome outfit! Did you watch it without subs? My Japanese is technically alright so I understood plenty but I hate when her thoughts come because I can't read Kanji and I'm like OMG what's she saying :P I can't pick a side!! All this time I was Team Sohei which is funny cuz I have second ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Well all Japanese guys are pretty it's kinda uncomfortable at times :) I think the only manly Japanese actor I know is Hiroki Narimiya... The rest are very very beautiful :P LOL you have a good point! I watched episode 7: I LOVE how this drama is so realistic. Even though there's some room for impr...

LaLaLaDRAMA

My o my!! You meant Ryosuke Yamada..LOL I can DEFINITELY with absolute certainty say I prefer Chinen's acting over Ryosuke Yamada. At least Chinen I can watch with a straight face. The only drama I saw Yamada was in Risou no Musuko. I couldn't even get past half of episode one because of HIM! It wa...

LaLaLaDRAMA

He is. And he's so small and different from the character of Hayato Katagiri I wouldn't know it was him except he has an English name and it stands out. The boys in Bakaleya are not all that bad. The main guy's in this year's remake of GTO also, he's a bit like Yamachan :D But I personally prefer t...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I think that the main girl with the short hair, her face and acting is refreshing. Definitely an actress we will see more of in the future.The only thing that bugs me is the second main lead guy. His acting and facial expressions could be better, but what can we expect from a rookie actor. I like t...

LaLaLaDRAMA

^ not sure why but I have a feeling that we are not going to get the romance that we all expecting between rei and kiyama by the end. First of all it's a jdrama and secondly in jdramas two people with such a huge age gap (he can practically be her dad) normally won't be romantically involved with e...

LaLaLaDRAMA

It really depends on what sort of drama categories interests you. For instance, School comedy- Definitely recommend My Boss, My Hero Light school/romance- Hanayori dango, Hanazakari no kimi tachi e Heavy love sappy drama- 1 Litre of tears, sekai no chuushin de, ai o sakebu Detective- Boss Silly come...

LaLaLaDRAMA

okay, honestly, i started watching this just because Chinen is playing the lead role :P but as the story progresses, i am now confused as to who i want to end up with who xD i'm looking forward to the next episodes :) am i the only one who thinks that miyuki and katagiri had some sort of "past...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I'm watching this too but can't really get it without subs. Its a really different kind of drama. Where do you get the episodes from? Well, I download the torrent from this site. I watch it without subs, but they offer soft subs http://sophia-london.livejournal.com/14285.html Here is their homepage...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I saw much improvement in episode 4.

It made me forget how silly episode 3 was (almost).

LaLaLaDRAMA

Am I the only one watching this? LOL I just finished episode 6 and can't wait for episode 7! I really like how realistic this love situation is. I don't know who I want her to end up with... Anyone with definite opinion? I am really torn in this love square going on. On one hand you have the typical...

LaLaLaDRAMA

It looks like there is another romance drama airing this summer. It's called "Kekkon Dousoukai ~ Seaside Love". Anyone know if it's any good? Sources: https://jdramas.wordpress.com/2012/08/05/kekkon-dousoukai-seaside-love http://doramaworld.blogspot.ca/2012/06/oomasa-aya-starring-in-fujit...

Episode 3:

.................................

LaLaLaDRAMA

This is one of the few dramas I like this season! It's only 30 minutes long. I think that the main girl with the short hair, her face and acting is refreshing. Definitely an actress we will see more of in the future.The only thing that bugs me is the second main lead guy. His acting and facial expre...

Title: スプラウト Title (romaji): Sprout Broadcast network: NTV Broadcast start: 7 July 2012 Air time: Saturday 12.50 a.m Synopsis: One day, the father of Ikenouchi Miku (Morikawa Aoi) starts a boarding house and her high school classmate, Narahashi Sohei (Chinen Yuri), moves in to live under the same ro...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I bashed this drama in the beginning of this thread... i take it back! Gave it one more chance and this drama is pretty sweet! :D Cant wait for next ep! From what episode did it get exciting. I downloaded this drama and stopped 15 minutes into it. I see that this drama has people hooked so I just w...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Thanks for the translation Romance!

LaLaLaDRAMA

Episode 2 Question

LaLaLaDRAMA

Great drama, it's something completely different from the other dramas, that's really nice. I also like the "cinematic" touch about it, the visuals, the slow pacing, some of the camera angles, they all look like from a bigger production and give this drama some sort of "artsy" f...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I watched the first episode. I really like this drama. Its only 30 minutes long. I don't like watching scary suspenseful things, but this one is interesting enough for me to watch it.

Its only the last half of the drama that got a bit creepy because of one of the characters.

LaLaLaDRAMA

This is so random. I was just watching Renai Kentei episode 1 and a little bit before the 24 minute mark, they show series of MOMO's pictures. I don't know why they decided to put her in there.

LaLaLaDRAMA

So I started watching this drama, and I really like the flow of it, except the kids and the father annoys me from time to time. The entire family doesn't even look related!! Aside from that minor annoyance...I think its really ironic that: Everyone is hating on the father saying that he isn't father...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Thank you Avieamber so much for clarifying it for me!!

LaLaLaDRAMA

This drama is really intriguing. First episode was a little draggy, but once they got through the character intro. etc, it became interesting. I have one question though- I watched it without subs so it was a little unclear to me, but did Miwa know that she herself was an inter-sexual all this time?...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Thats good to know that I'm not missing out by skipping this one. It really doesn't make sense for them to make the 2011 version when the first one is hard to top off. I guess they wanted to create a break out role for Atsuko, and all the young actors.

LaLaLaDRAMA

Is it really worth watching? I downloaded the first episode, and after 20 minutes into it, I had to stop because it really felt like I was wasting my time. I do have to admit Maeda Atsuko is more tolerable than Horimaki.

LaLaLaDRAMA

love this drama.. i only watched 4 dramas this season, this certainly the best (but might try School later. read a lot of good reviews) 1 question.. Saki die or not? i thought she phone Eriko at the end. or it just a dream. general consensus here, Saki died. but i think she's not.. I'm certain she ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Do you live in the US? Can't you just watch the news on tv? Here in California, they play NHK news in the morning and night everyday on one of the channels. You don't even need cable.

LaLaLaDRAMA

As soon as I saw this post, I knew it was posted from someone from Taisetsu na Koto wa.. thread! LOL

Anyways, if you guys like her, you can get lots of her pictures from Japanese fashion magazines. I think she started off as a magazine model.

LaLaLaDRAMA

I don't think that I have been this involved in a jdorama before. Which means that it is a good watch and I am not saying that it is bad that I can't watch it again, well depends on the ending... IDK I wish that I would have skipped this drama and watched something else like I intended to do from t...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Hmm... I guess I am the only one that thinks differently of Shuji's intention. I think at first Shuji was confused at why he felt the need to protect Hikari. He couldn't tell whether it was because he unknowingly had an attraction for her, or cared for her as a student. But I think as the episodes w...

LaLaLaDRAMA

This is sort of off topic to everyone's discussion at the moment...but who is that boy that has a crush on SAEKI? Do you know the actor's name? He looks so familiar, but I don't know where I've seen him. Its really bugging me. They are giving him too much screen time, so I have a feeling I will be s...

LaLaLaDRAMA

For me, the most overrated would be GOKUSEN. The first one was good. But they kept on doing the same thing season after season and it was still popular! i am madly in love with Gokusen, so i dont think so. especially when you read manga, i think that they did a great job dividing all the different ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Can someone please explain to me what kind of disease Hikari has? I didn't quite understand it. They mentioned something about if she didn't take medicine, she can't be a girl? And her skin..I watched it without subs so I would appreciate it if someone can fill me in. Aside from that, I can't belie...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I personally think Hero with Takuya Kimura is way overrated it's good very good bit it's not even close to my list of the top 10 or 15 best dramas I've seen. also 101'st Marriage Proposal. and definitely Tokyo Love Story I don't see how anyone can like that one I liked Tokyo Love Story.

LaLaLaDRAMA

My japanese friend saw this and said it was really disappointing, and everyone's acting was horrible, with kitagawa in the top.. but ill give it a try i guess, what do you guys think? I have been pretty disappointed with Japanese dramas lately, and was expecting much when I saw this. I really liked...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Just watched the first episode. Troubled teens and one faithful unconventional teacher. Even the characters for school officials seem to have the same personality.

LaLaLaDRAMA

Honestly, most of the dramas I've watched this year were pretty disappointing that I can't even remember their names! BUT!! 1) MOTHER ---by far the best drama of this year, and one of the best dramas I've seen in a long time! Any age can watch it and be moved to tears by this one!! I guess I can giv...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I would watch it IF the storyline seems interesting. I live in California, so as long as you tell me what channel it would be aired at what time, I would be willing to watch the first episode just to support a fellow d-addict member! But yeah, whether I watch the full series would all depend on how ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Yeah, I liked the movie. I watched it without knowing the synopsis, and I actually thought it was a really cute film (minus the teenage prostitution part). She has great chemistry with Tanihara Shosuke, which was a shocker considering their age difference. But while watching the movie, all I can thi...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Not really going by substance, but I guess I can name a few that I was honestly hooked to from the get go: 1) Love Generation (pretty old, but kimutaku and the main girl had major chemistry) 2) To Heart (very light, but full of drama. Watched it for Tsuyoshi Domoto--sooo cute in this drama. He has g...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I recently finished watching a movie called Tenshi no Koi where Sasaki Nozomi played lead. I saw her in Massugu na Otoko, and didn't think much, but I think after watching the movie, she has a potential of becoming a big actress! She reminds me of Kyoko Fukada mixed with Erika Sawajiri, and maybe Ke...

LaLaLaDRAMA

From what I'm reading, it sounds like maybe you have feelings for him? Sorry if I'm wrong.

LaLaLaDRAMA

Thank you for reminding me! I was going to watch it, but forgot when it was going to play. Anyways, there are lots of guys I recognize from other dramas, so I am excited for this.

LaLaLaDRAMA

I was watching Yamato Nadeshiko and Massugu na Otoko, but stopped watching both of them. Actually, I managed to get to episode 9 of Massugu na Otoko- this drama, I suggest you watch when you have nothing better to do. I managed to watch My Girl till the very end, but didn't think much of that drama....

LaLaLaDRAMA

I liked the drama, BUT But what kind of finale was that!?!? I so did not get why Tachibana got the guy even after showing her violent jealous rage. Why did they let a Tachibana just go home after trying to kill someone!?!? LOL at least they found a way to make the drama memorable for me. But serious...

Could it be Kou Kou Kyoushi 2003 ? If not, could it be LIFE ? Do you remember the actors and/or actresses that started in the drama you're describing? FUNNY! Those dramas came in mind too! But I don't remember the main character being molested/raped by her teacher. Anyways, this drama must be well ...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Maybe we can help if you can give us an idea of when this drama came out? Like when (year) /where did you see this first episode?

LaLaLaDRAMA

Definitely Hana Yori Dango. I think the storyline is appealing for the younger crowd.

LaLaLaDRAMA

This was fun! I think it will lead me to many interesting dramas. I mean, good songs make good dramas! I only got about half that I named a drama for. The rest, I never heard of it or I did, but cannot pin point the exact drama. Hopefully the answers will be up soon so I can check out some of the dr...

LaLaLaDRAMA

I'm watching Seigi no Mikata and Ohitorisama. They are both lighthearted comedy. I would recommend them.

My current theory about TK's mom's relation with MN: When I first saw the drama I thought: "Oh no, are you trying to turn MN and TK into siblings?!" But when I thought it over, TK's mom's relation with MN's dad looks alot like another drama I saw many years ago.... the Taiwanese drama The...

This thread is interesting!

I am not a fan of

Hirosue Ryoko

Inoue Mao- I don't understand why people think she is so cute.

LaLaLaDRAMA

Thank you everyone for the forum recommendations! I will for sure check them out. Anyways, have anyone here seen the 1st episode? I've been caught up with school lately so I think I will be seeing this when school ends. Hopefully all the subs will be completed by then.

LaLaLaDRAMA

I didn't even notice that she had double chin when she laughs. Here's a smile: Oricon And a laugh: Sankei MSN Both taken at the BB press conference. It's all a matter of taking a photo at the right moment, of course. (It's obvious why she keeps mentioning the dental clinic she goes to on her blog.)...

Yeah I came across this myself when looking up new and upcoming dramas.. it's such a shame that I don't get any of the drama channels from Korea or else Aug 19th I'd def. be in front of the TV haha.. but then again, I wouldn't be able to understand the majority of it without subs so we'll have to w...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Oo! great to know a group is planning on subbing it! I can't wait. Does anybody know if there is a different forum or something that everyone goes to for Kdrama discussions? I feel like it isn't as lively as the jdrama sections? Soompi? It's a pretty big forum to discuss Korean pop culture so Kdram...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Keiko is very pretty but am I the only one that thinks she's too lanky?!? Any sane person thinks so, but during the runup to BB there were complaints on the Japanese forums that she was too fat (so she has a double chin when she laughs out loud, big deal), and on 7/2 Keiko announced that she was di...

After reading some of the posts, I feel sorry for Aibu Saki!! I actually think that she is perfect for this role! Strangely enough, I think she is more likable as an evil person. I watched her in Zettai Kareshi and Attention Please, and her playing a bubbly and innocent character annoyed me at times...

LaLaLaDRAMA

Just finished watching episode 5. All along so far I had been hoping for him to end up with the class president girl(not realistic considering that it's just him and the teacher in the ed), and telling from the preview for episode 6 it seems that she finally confesses.
