Here's my list:
- Great Teacher Onizuka aka GTO
- Forbidden Love aka Majou no Jouken
- Friends (A joined project of Japan and Korea but it's really good, starring Kyoko Fukada & Won-Bin)
- Hero
- Beautiful Life
- Love Revolution
- Power Office Girls aka Shomuni
That's all I can remember for now, there are dramas I like but I don't list them here since I forgot the title. By the way, I'm still watching "Hana Yori Dango" and it's really good. Hopefully to finish it soon. I'm at episode 5.

You can get RAWs + softsubs here at D-Addicts or a hardsubbed version from Tv-Nihon: http://www.tvnihon.com/hime wrote:where can i get densha otoko(plus the english subs)? and the movie as well

I have watched antique I thought it was pretty good. I wouldnt say that it one of my favourite dramas, but definately worth a watch. There are great quiet tense moments that are mostly humorous. And the acting is believable.
favourite is probably GOKUSEN, but i also really enjoyed Hana Yori Dango and Kimi Wa Petto.

Eh? Are you looking for movies or dramas?good_gal wrote:im new here and i love the dramas but they take too long to download so could sumone post the top movies?
For dramas:
1. As evil as it sounds, you can read through this thread for popular recommendations...
2. D-Addicts's Ranking for 2005 JDramas (finished, results in)
3. The main homepage for jdorama.com has a listing (although it is kind of skewed... ^_^;; )
I don't think there is a soft-subbed version of Beautiful Life, but I believe JTV has it on their tracker...linhnhi wrote: does anyone know where i can find the english subtile for beautiful life...
It seems to be uploaded only partially in JEM, as its history saids.newersumm wrote:Huh I cant find ANTIQUE anywhere.
Could anyone completely upload it?
Hello! Have tour read the first post? It's pretty impressive, but I cannot resist to give you my opinion about what you must watch:
I am cuurently busy watching
Nobuta wo produce: it's kind of fun, but i am really wondering how it will end(I have seen so far 4 episodes),
Lunch queen: a mouth watering series!!makes me want to go to restaurant each time I see it and the ost is great
The other series I am watching are not japanese, but anyway, I give you some of them:
Meteor Garden: the taiwanese version ofHYD. I know it's kind of strange, but both of them are so different.You have to wait 2 or 3 episodes to get in the mood, especially when you are like me HYD fan, but I assure you it worths it!!
Mars: I was a big fan of the manga, it's a really good serie. the actors are brilliant and I love the soundtrack. A must see in my opinion.
Full House: just discovered this one, it's from Korea. A classical plot: two people with nothing in common will have together.... Only seen 2 episodes but sounds good
I was about to forget!!!!Kimi wa petto with Matsumoto Jun: definitely a must see, i really liked the way they act in this serie and it is very funny!
Hope it will help

All time favourite j-dorama :
1) Orange Days - A lot can be learnt from here. It's funny, interesting, unbelievable, kawaii. When i mean kawaii, not just the actors/ess, but the story itself. It taught you to appreciate yourself, taught you to love, taught you that you are not alone in this world.
2) Double Score - May be because i love Oshio Manabu and Sorimachi Takashi? Hehe. No, it's definitely worth watching! Sorimachi with his ever splendid performance, very comical in this. Oshio Manabu, teh hot! Got loads of humour. Shounen ai..Haha...=p You wished!
3) Overtime - Simply because i love Sorimachi T. Nah, i like him but the story itself is interesting. I'm just a sucker for this kind of romance dorama. =p
4) Nobuta wo Produce - I used not to like Yamapi. But whoa...Watching it, i fall in love with his character, Kusano Akira. Now i know he's a good actor. I don't really like his other dramas, that's just because probably i don't like his character. In this dorama, Yamapi's character, Akira, is just too great. He's crazy and strange and hyper. ANd paired with the pretty boy Kame-chan's character, Kiritani Shuji, cool and leader-like. You WILL fall in love with the characters! Yamapi is mine! Haha. Yeah, the story is hella funny. The ending theme by Yamapi and Kame~chan aka Shuji to Akira, "Seishun Amigo" is a must listen OST. Haha
5) Waterboys - It's funny! You getta see boys in skimpy swimming trunks! Haha. It's seriously hilarious. THo there's some dull part, not much, but the story is still going great.

Any more dramas similar to 1 Litre of Tears?
i doubt there is a better drama than 1 litre of tears, but can i get some recommendations for a drama that is close as good as this drama?
You probably should have posted this in RECOMMENDED/FAVORITE JAPANESE DRAMAS
I think the drama most would recommend is Sekai No Chuushin, Ai Wo Sakebu though..

Re: Any more dramas similar to 1 Litre of Tears?
Depends on what you liked about it the most, but other dramas with similar storylines (tragic human drama) that have done well (and are available subbed):bshater wrote:i doubt there is a better drama than 1 litre of tears, but can i get some recommendations for a drama that is close as good as this drama?
Sekachuu
Beautiful Life
Kamisama mou sukoshi dake
All these guys tend to be romances, but they also have a healthy dose of family interaction.
I know there are more, but I'd have to think about it for a bit...

Densha Otoko
Ai no Uta
Anego
Re: Suggestions?
There are about a million romantic comedies... I think Jdramas have more of these than Kdramas do... As for a drama that has to do with a wedding, I'm going to assume you mean a romantic comedy that ends up with characters getting married? If that's the case, there're still a ton (I'm going to spoiler it b/c it kind of tells you what happens... even if it really is obvious):xohugs4uxo wrote:hey to all! i've been searching around and i dont know what to watch from the J-dramas because all Ive been watching a K-Dramas, so is there any romantic comedies? or dramas that have to do with weddings?
... or the supid comedies where the couple are already married and have to deal with.... stuff...
of coz Nurse Aoi star by Ishihara satomi....SHiNB0 wrote:which drama has the prettiest actresses??

wow, i just found out it was a movie. hmm. one of the websites with the link has reached its member limit and the other is an irc channel which i don't prefer. hmmm, gotta find some new ones then.
edit: so i did a search on every movie site that d-addicts told me to and i still haven't found g@me. I did, however, I find one or two raws of it. in fact, even emule has raw of it. so my question would be if a subbed version of this movie is even existing. can anyone confirm?

dude i just watched the finale of dragonzakura.... frankly i'm a bit disappointed like the ending was so anticlimatic... I mean they tried building tension and all but iono... sighhh i sorta feel like there wasn't a sense of closure... sigh.
finished nobuta wo produce. I got kinda mad that akira didn't get nobuta in the end. I thought when he started liking her the show was getting interesting. but i guess they thought they really couldn't choose a side because the viewers might not b happy with their choice. But still c'mon u should pick one anyhow. Its better than nothing.
And wat was w/ akira going to the new school. Thats was weird. specially when they decided to walk into the beach?

hi all... i usually only watch Kdramas.. ut i got tired cause they are becoming way too predictable.
SOme of the Jdramas that i watched such as Nobuta Wo Produce, Gokusen and Hanayori Dango is now converting me into a Japanese Drama fan... I ususally prefer Comedies, so do you guys know any good comedies or anything with good storyline, i would really appreciate it.

Can anyone tell me of some dramas to download where everyone isn't a spineless vagina? I'm currently watchin' Stairway to Heaven, and it's not SOOOO bad, but wtf. All the characters act like they're autistic and can't fuckin' speak. I really don't feel like wasting my time with another show like this. Can anyone lend me some insight into other ones please?
