nakama yukie did a GREAT job as a "suspect with multiple personality disorder."
^oops i think that's a hint...
i looking forward to the 7th episode
Seems like next week's episode 8 will be the last episode for this drama. Too bad it's so short.
I doubt that the producer might have run out of ideas to connect neuroscience to murder/mystery. So far, I really enjoy the knowledge and technology they showed us in this drama but for the mystery aspect, I think they failed badly. (A lot of things are very illogical in this drama, really. After finished watching each episode, I always had a lot of what/where/when/why/how questions in my head and those questions have never been answered in the series.)
Anyway, despite all the complaints, I really enjoyed this drama. The comedy parts are nicely done. I had a good laugh in almost all episodes. The cast is great and I'm still saying that I love Mizushima Hiro in this clumsy detective role. (Aren't you guys think he's cute this way? His look when he's scared is soooo cute... hahaha...)

Looks like a lot of people are familiar with Kimura Takuya, I'm not one of them. He does strike me as quite a good actor though.
Does anyone know if he's the same guy that did the Cyril Takayama spoof?
The name looked familiar but unfortunately the youtube description doesn't seem to have all the details.
I've just watch Ep.1-6 of Mr.Brain and thought it looked remarkably like a Japanese version of "CSI:Crime Scene Investigation", granted some of the tech stuff is a bit more advanced, but the opening scene and even the logo looks strikingly similar.
Just thought I'd ask.

If you watch any of the 'Hostman' episodes on SMAPxSMAP, then you will soon realise that Kimura's appearance as the third rate tacky host at the start of MR.BRAIN was almost sure to have been a tongue in cheek 'skit upon a skit.'....
Kimura was the most sharp and gorgeous Host you have ever seen, with a sparkling white outfit and carefully groomed hair and all the bling he could wear. He used to do those sketches with Goro. Very funny always and sometimes with a guest. US guests never knew what was happening really. That was funny.
The third rate host at the start of MR.BRAIN was untidy and rumpled and his hair undoubtedly a wig that needed attention. Also funny.
Try and find a SxS show that has a Hostman section. You will love it.

I'm happy with 8 eps because it was originally rumored to have only 6 episodes. It actually has only 5 cases and 1 big case at the end too so looks like the rumor was not too far off. Ep4-5 and Ep5-6 would work better as two 75-min episodes. I guess that was the original plan but they decided to extend later.
Mr. Brain OST
Does anyone have the soundtrack to Mr. Brain yet? It was supposedly released on July 1st, but I can't find any local distributors to get it; iTunes requires a Japanese credit card to buy any of the tracks.

8 eps only - Low ratings (for a kitamura drama) vis a vis high production costs is not a profitable combination. They probably had more eps planned, but cut their losses early.
in ep1, Ryoko Hirosue, you don't put a on actress of that caliber just for that short a scene. It was mostly likely a set up to a story they would have explored at the later stages of the series.
Most likely scenario, they wait maybe a year for an SP or movie.

As was mentioned earlier, it seemed to be more the case where they had 6 eps planned and then extended it to 8. The Japanese wiki and the rumor buzz had the finale date as 6.27 for a long time before it was changed to the July date.popoycanton wrote:8 eps only - Low ratings (for a kitamura drama) vis a vis high production costs is not a profitable combination.

Whatever the situation, Mr. Brain is the highest-rated drama of the spring season with an average of 20.1%. That's very good, especially for a Saturday night time slot. Sounds like a win to me.
I wouldn't call 20% on average a low rating drama, even if it's a Kimura's drama. Especially, when the time slot is tough. This is still much much higher than average for a Saturday night at 8pm. The other previous dramas hardly scored higher than 10-11%. The highest rating in this time slot before Mr. Brain was ROOKIES and it got only 14.8%
I didn't think the drama was cut short because it was already rumored since before the drama was announced that it would have only 6 episodes. And Kimura more or less said in his radio show even around the third episode that Mr. Brain would have 8 episodes.
There was another rumor back in late April that there would be a movie too. And the finale looks like it could be true, or there might be a 2nd season.

Despite all the naysayers this drama has been successful and has attained a high rating.
Personally I thought it was a funny and interesting drama and Kimura was rather effective in a very different character for him. He can put himself into a role and it seems to me that all the guest stars were more than happy to appear even if only for a short scene. I still think that the beginning of the first episode was really spot on with Kimura as a very secondary 'Host'... and Ryoko Hirosue remains in memory even tho it was a short appearance. That's good acting in my opinion.
In fact I found the beginning very funny because Kimura has done the 'Perfect No.1 Host ' in skits with Goro on the SMAP shows. There, he is sharp and pristine in his sparkling white suit and with all the bling even his teeth sparkle. The contrast with the host in 'Mr. BRAIN' was probably only apparent to SMAP and Kimura admirers. Funny.

I don't think that they had planned for more eps because if this was the case, they would have started this drama along side other dramas at begining of spring season. the fact that it started few weeks later than others, it proves they did not plan a usual 10-11 eps drama from the start. it had to finish by end of the season anyway.popoycanton wrote:8 eps only - Low ratings (for a kitamura drama) vis a vis high production costs is not a profitable combination.

not bad rating too. actually, high rating comparing with other dramas of this season. i was one of people that did not like ,r Brain much till ep4. but ep by ep i started liking it more and i though kimutaku was very good in there even though i am not his fan. over all, have to say it was very fun drama to watch.

So I finished the series last night. There were some pretty good episodes and I found it to be a likable series overall, but definitely not great. It felt a bit disjointed and I think they relied too much on guest appearances rather than a good flowing story to keep the ratings up.
I was pretty disappointed with the way the last two episodes ended the series. It felt like the first episode and the last few episodes went together, and everything in between was just filler.
It seems to me like the ending was a setup for a SP or movie (hopefully).
Also, am I the only one who found Hayashida to be really annoying (and that haircut looked ridiculous)?

Not that Mr. Brain is bad, but if you find that you like him, I'd suggest a few others over this one. I'm sure a lot of people will tell you "must" watch Long Vacation, but I think Pride and Hero are much better series and would highly recommend both.OnlyXainz wrote:LOL my first kimura takuya film~ just started watching it and i fell in love with him within the first ten minutes already that guy has got some serious skills

And Good Luck is pretty entertaining show. "long vacation" is a must-see."beautiful life"? hmm, I've not watched it yet,so....
well, I actually think "Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi" is a okay show, not bad at all.
I haven't watched Mr Brain, although it is on my Must Watch list. Of the series put out, haha, I have a slightly different view. My must watch is Long Vacation, Pride is very very good, and I haven't rewatched Hero.mii-t wrote:Not that Mr. Brain is bad, but if you find that you like him, I'd suggest a few others over this one.

Just done watching the last episode of the show.
I have to say it was a most grueling effort and I come out of this believing that this Mister Brain has got to be the most expensive crap in the history of J TV.
This may sound mean but that's how disappointing it was to see the best actors and the best production budget be completely squandered on half-baked plots and spammy storylines.
What a waste of talent and money.

Just to show how his life was before the accident that made him a genius. And, a lame way to throw in Ryoko Hirosue.horent135 wrote:Got a question on the EP1. On the first part of EP1, where the guy was dressed in all white look like he works at the club. And he helps the girl out with her heels. What does that have to do anything with the story??
I'm still hoping for a second season, SP, or movie that fills all the gaping holes in the plot - perhaps his past life as a host will be something that gets addressed later.

I soooo love Mr. Brain, those out of the blue reactions of Tsukumo-san is just sooo damn cute. I love the part when they bribe Tsukumo-san with banana, like whose the real monkey? Ayase or Tsukumo? (lol)~... and Shingo at the end of the series? OMG it's soooo him! I'm really crossing my fingers that Kimura-san will do a follow-up or SP for Mr. Brain, 'coz I read a chinese newspaper saying that he thought the ending was a cliffhanger and it'll be a pity to see it end just like that.
hi garcon! OMG! Ur watching Change right now? I just re-watched the series 'coz it's been a year since I watched it. Noticed something in the end though. I was so amazed with this series that I thought it should be shown in every country. Though the plot is a bit impossible in the real world, it's just something to inspire the politicians to remind themselves on what was their purpose when they fiI rst entered politics. (SORRY OUT OF TOPIC)
Pride is a good dorama for me, it's just that the HALU character is just over sensitive and too much headstrong, in short there's just too much Pride in him. hahaha... But I like him, Halu. He's just a kid inside trying to find someone to REALLY CARE for him. (SORRY OUT OF TOPIC)

Just watched the Ep. 8 finale. Huge thanks to Timeless for subbing this, and extra big kisses for releasing an SD version that my shitty laptop can cope with.
I really liked this show. It's confirmed me as a kimutaku convert. I thought it balanced out the mystery, action, comedy and drama elements perfectly.
Great to see Mizushima Hiro playing a comedic second banana (cough) role and doing it really well. If this show had one problem it was the lack of resolution between Tsukumo and Yuri.
But to balance that out, the real joy of the show was the relationship between Tsukumo and Tanbara: that alone makes me hold out hope for a special.
(PS that was Katori Shingo as the hijacker? Shouldn't he be in his Koban?!)

We loved this series. Thanks TimeleSub for doing this -- and very quickly, I might add.
I have a question tough. Among the subbed "stuff" pertaining to Mr. Brain is the promo done by Kimura Takuya and Kamenashi Kazuya. We've been watching jdramas for a while but we haven't been assimilated into the whole Japanese celebrity sub-culture. This leads me to ask this question: What's the big deal about the two of them acting together in an episode of Mr. Brain? Is this like the De Niro-Hoffman face off in Sleepers? We know they're both Johnny's talents (senior and junior), is it something more than that? I'm just curious.

Honestly, I don't think it's a big deal but Johnny seemed to want to make it a big deal. (I won't go into detail but it definitely caused resentment among fans of other Johnnys and maybe some Kimura fans) Kimura acted with his junior before but those juniors were not as famous as Kame, who has acted as a lead in dramas.tunix_2008 wrote:We loved this series.

And NO, this is absolutely noting like De Niro - Hoffman. I like some of Kame's works and I think his acting is fine but the differences in popularity, name recognition, and ability between Kimura and Kame are much much wider than between De Niro and Hoffman. This was one of the reasons behind the resentment among fans I mentioned.

Oh. I thought it was something like that because we didn’t really see anything special about Kamenashi Kazuya’s performance. Maybe it’s more like a Madonna-Britney popularity stunt.nnnc wrote:Honestly, I don't think it's a big deal but Johnny seemed to want to make it a big deal.

Actually if we’re going to judge by the guest stars’ performances who’s worthy to do a promo with Kimura Takuya, our vote will be for Nakama Yukie. She gave the best guest star performance in the entire series. It also helped that the role was so complicated. Of course I’ve seen western actors tackle the multiple personality disorder issue much better than Nakama Yukie did but her performance moved us enough to pity the character and comfort ourselves with the thought that a jury, out of compassion, will be lenient on the character. (I understand that the jury system will be implemented in Japan this year?)
As the lead of the series, Kimura Takuya is very good. We weren’t so impressed with Ayase Haruka’s performance – she didn’t deliver the innocent-but-gifted (I assume you have to be gifted to get into IPS) assistant/lab rat role very well. She had a lot of screen time but her performance was just not memorable. Maybe Ueno Juri would’ve done better (after seeing Nodame).
Another break out performance is Mizushima Hiro as the bumbling detective’s assistant Hayashida. We were playing the game Hiro’s-solving-the-case-to-save/convict-his ______.
In episode 3, “fiancée” in Zettai Kareshi;
in episode 4 “brother” in Meichan no Shitsuji;
in episode 5&6 “teacher” in Gokusen 2;
in episode 7&8 “uncle and school doctor” in Hanazakari no Kimitachi e.
The myth that there’s only one hundred working actors in the jdrama industry must be true after all.
Very true. i too noticed this order in relation to hiro characters in other dramas.tunix wrote:Another break out performance is Mizushima Hiro as the bumbling detective’s assistant Hayashida. We were playing the game Hiro’s-solving-the-case-to-save/convict-his ______.

i think that Yuki Nakame was the best guest star in portraying her characterand she did it in a best way. very believeable and natural.
i also liked Sato Takeru's character and i thought he was very good.

cho-ri-su. The janitor's line 3* in the last episode.
Nice show, but that pretty boy detective was really getting on my nerves with his overacting and crappy character. Even though he did get bonus points twice in the last ep for saving the day.
I guess ikemen are impervious to bomb explosions. No fire burns to the face, no damage to the hair, But wait a casket around the leg! He did have some awesome slapstick skills though. This one time he almost fell of a stair, i was geniunely worried that he would really slip.
Surprised that there is no love progress though. Maybe something for the sp.

Overall I enjoyed this drama - I guess I don't worry too much about the "plot holes" because I don't know the Japanese justice system, and I know that even with the best translators on earth, some things just aren't going to come across 100%. Not a huge KimuTaku fan, but he is fun to watch.
Two things -
First, did having Van Halen's "Jump" as the song during the credits seem incredibly weird to anyone else?? Maybe it's just because I'm old enough to remember when the song was new, but every time it started playing I got a mental image of David Lee Roth jumping around (O_o) which did not go with the drama at all.
Second, did anyone else notice that I guess that's just part of his character's oddness.
