Brother Beat English subs out:

Thanks to ephesus and projectskillz!!

This show is off the hook, the Def-Tech music themes goes along very well with the theme of the drama. The mother: Haru is soo LOL hilarious. Tamayama Tetsuji and Hayami Mokomichi are not just hot, eye-candy but superb actors as well. Kuninaka Ryoko is super kawaii and sweet.

Really, I have to say... I just watch for the eye candy! lol... but really, I just prefer dramas that aren't -too- serious, meaning it not overly angsty or dramatic and just calm. I love how they always fight with one another, hence the title. It's like my house at the holidays... tho, I'm usually the one beating my brothers -_-;;.

At first, I wasnt really expecting too much from this drama. I didnt even get suckered because of the eye-candies(I cant really tell by looking at the picture. Although, I knew Hayami is in it but still not good enough reason for me to see it). I see its banner everytime I dl dramas from kangjegu's clubbox(it's changed now), and I thought it was about a rockband with high school kids. But when I looked at the banner closely, the lady on the center is Haru-san, the mother, and she's holding a whisk not a microphone...gosh, she looks really young and hip on the picture, no?

Hayami, Ryoko and Tetsuji are holding brooms, not guitars...and Junpei is holding a soup ladle, and not a drum stick. And the crowd of people on the bottom left are just a collage of the same characters on different scenes and not a bunch of students. Well, you can see that I'm not a really good observer..hehe
Anyhow, after all those mistakes and gulping all four episodes on one sitting, Im finding this drama too enjoyable for me to watch. I'm falling in love with each character...the head teacher from Gokusen(with "the hair", if you know what I mean) is in this drama as well. That ojisan make me laugh on his dramas.
Three grown men in a tiny wooden house, does anybody else get scared that the house might collapse everytime they fight? lol I do, but like the poster above me said, Im glad that the drama's pacing isnt downright serious, that you can laugh, cry and relate with each ]problem they encounter.
Thanks to ephesus, projectskillz, and tianj for bringing us yet another drama that would feed my addiciton. Beating heart

Even though I'm a guy I really like this drama! Not many cute girls innit (Ryoko Kuninaka dake) but it manages to find the golden middle between drama, romance and humour better than any other show this season.

Funny that many shows have host/hostess bars in them this season... must be popular over there Roll Eyes

I actually enjoy this drama a lot. Yes, the story is just the same usual old stuff we get to see in most family dramas, but I found the characters interesting. I must admit the good looking guys in here kept me going for the most parts though. And wow, do they really fight and beat each other up, hence the title, lol. The relationship between the mother and her three grown sons is really cute and funny. In episode 4, I was laughing so hard at the part where
Hidden:

Haru pretends to be Chisato's boyfriend and goes to a meeting with her parents and as expected with his flirtatious personality, he upsets her father and gets water poured all over his head. I won't mind watching more of him and Chisato's father pinch.



oh, and I agree with jaycee05 about the fight thing. Everytime they fight, I feel so afraid that the house will break down at any moment pinch. I guess that house must be prepared numerous times. Speaking of that, I suddenly am reminded of Yuki and Kyou in Fruits Basket, they always fight and destroy things, lol.

Why isnt this show more popular on this board? I like it a lot, it was a nice break for me from school dramas that ive been watching. Only seen 4 episodes so far (english subs are only up to that), but its a fun show.

Been collecting this but I just got around to seeing it. It's really good so far and far better than the other 3 series i've been watching this season. Great characters, great acting, and really funny so far. I'm surprised it isn't more popular around here as well.

I too love this series. Hell, even my mom likes it. I manage to be able to relate to all 3 of the brothers even though I'm an only child.

I feel that it mixes comedy and drama perfectly, has a good "slice of life" feel to it, and an interesting plot. Need ep 5+ though. Neutral

It's an enjoyable drama, but there are times when Haru gets annoying. She tends to exaggerate or try to act cute, and it's not cute at all. I keep on thinking it could've been better if they had a different actress play her character. If you have seen akimahende! or maybe h2 (hiro's mom), the actresses playing the mom were funny and cute.
