Downloading Anime fansubs lead me across Densha Otoko which lead me here to d-addicts qhich lead to a couple of dozen shows since. Trick is probably out all time favorite.

My first was actually Stand Up! Which I downloaded on a whim. It's not the best, but it was funny to see it! Seeing was made me find Hana Yori Dango, which was my second drama and one I love oh-so-much.

Densha Otoko, Stand Up!! and Hana Hori Dango 1. I got on the Drama train a little late, but since then, I've watched a few older shows and tend to keep up with a lot of the newer shows, the good ones anyway.

My first drama was Hana Yori Dango!!!
I watched the whole series on my 17th birthday.
I went over my cousins place to do something w/ her,
when she told me to watch one episode before we left.
I really didn't want to at first but after that first episode,
I couldn't stop watching until I was done!!! After that, I fell in
LOVE w/ MATSUJUN and ARASHI!!!
Now, Im the biggest ARASHI fan and started exploring
the different types of dramas!!
My favorite ARASHI member now is NINO
becasue of my second drama AND my favorite drama STAND UP!!!!
I think most pplz first drama is Hana Yori Dango! It certainly looks like it!! :wub:

My first Japanese drama was Hana Yori Dango.. Funny thing was I thought I was downloading the anime. I had no clue about the story so when I watched the first ep I just wanted to watch more.

My first drama was Hana Yori Dango as well! It seems I wasn't the only one that got hooked after watching that one! I had seen the anime and read the manga, so when I heard there was a live action I just had to check it out. And I totally loved it! When it ended I kept craving more and more.. and then it was done! I was addicted!

My first Jdorama is Heaven's coin :D (although I watched before that the TV Serie "Oshin" with my family long ago but don't have much memory about it).
Heaven's coin is damn good, but the end of its 2nd season was so sad. Unfair !!!

And then i started watching tokyo love story, ordinary people, under the same roof, and long vacation. That was my very first interest to Japanese Dorama :wub: :wub: :wub:

Currently i watched nodame cantabille (so funny!!) and next would be itsumo futari de (anyone could give me synopsis about this drama?)
Haha, you're not the only one. You must live in some Southeast Asian countries, I guess? Anyways, the 1st ever Jdrama I watched was Oshin too, lol. Nonetheless, it was an amazing drama. I remember that our family used to gather together and watched the episodes whenever it was on and we discussed it along the way. The drama had also created a phenomenon in Vn back then that the term "Oshin" was coined into the Vietnamese slang and now it's used and known by everyone. It was such good time.

Yeah...same here mine was Oshin too..but don't remembered much about the story now tho. Really started on the JDrama with Beautiful Life in 2001 and ever since then loved all Kimutaku dramas and others as well.

Actually my first J-drama was also GTO and I watched it out of curiosity! I liked it a lot but I never thought I could get that hooked on J-dramas until I watched Densha Otoko and HYD! Ever since then J-dramas are my no1 love! (ok maybe they are second only to my obsession with Arashi ^^)

Well, my first contact with japanese drama was an episode of Food Fight I watched with my homestay family in Japan back on 2000. A few years after that, one of my old roommates came home one day with some Beautiful Life episodes, it was love at first sight... Tokiwa Takako's beauty and Kimura Takuya's acting, both of them did an excelent job. Because of that I count Beautiful Life as my first drama because it was the first complete series I watched.

my very first jdrama was Beach Boys..

i dunno whether anyone could ever remember, bcos it was a long time ago... in 1999 i guess.. cant really remember, it was the first jdrama shown in Malaysia.. i guessed... :roll

takashi sorimachi n takenouchi yutaka were in it if i'm not mistaken..

i love em since then..takenouchi yutaka was the first japanese actor that i loved..

but now, i'm totally obsessed with kamenashi kazuya and akanishi jin..

kamisama mou sukoshi dake with kyoko fukada and takeshi kaneshiro back in 2002 i think...

For me it was Densha Otoko (電車男). It wasn't really the tv show that got me hooked, but the first special. OMG, that special made sitting through the over-the-top acting from Densha, and the underacting-stone-face from Hermes all worth it. It was soooo funny.
