GoddessCarlie

yay! I'm looking forward to this drama

I like Maki and the rest of the cast looks pretty good too.

I hope it is quriky and funny.

GoddessCarlie

This movie was awesome! I really enjoyed it for the plot, special effects, and the humour! I am looking forward to Crows Zero 2, I hope it is just as good.

GoddessCarlie

I think Nana's short hair makes her look younger, which is strange because usually short hair (in my opinion) makes people look older!

GoddessCarlie

I am happy with them not to do a wedding special, unless they come up with an awesome story line, I don't see it being very exciting. I enjoyed the special but it needed more Nakatsu.

GoddessCarlie

Ep 2 - I admit I was only half watching, half getting ready for work. So I missed a lot. I think overall this will be a show that I like, but not love. Again, love the characters, but the show feels a bit to formulaic.

GoddessCarlie

I'm the same in that medical/dectective stories aren't really my favourite, but I like the cast and the chemistry of the characters seemed to work in this, with perhaps the exception of the goofy character. I hope each episode isn't exactly the same as this one though.

GoddessCarlie

I'm a bit sick of these "bullying" stories, but I have to admit that I like the character of Kento (and also love Mizushima Hiro!) and the ending makes me look forward to next week.

GoddessCarlie

I actually really enjoyed this ep and I think this is my favourite drama I've seen sofar this season.

GoddessCarlie

Ok, I've seen it (without subs)

OMG loved it. I'm really sad now, though, that its really over. I will miss you Hana Kimi!!!

GoddessCarlie

It's on right now, but I missed the start so I'm not going to watch it now. But I'm impatient to!

GoddessCarlie

Those ratings aren't too bad, but let's hope it gets better!

GoddessCarlie

I'll probably watch this. I haven't seen the movie (yet). I agree I like the movie pair better, but that is because I know the actors!

GoddessCarlie

GoddessCarlie

I hope they do a good job. It's a long shot, considering Hollywood's record, but there is hope. But I hope they do a good job. I love Japanese movies, but I could only watch half of the movie version of this, I was a bit bored to tears and thought it brought nothing new. I think an American version ...

GoddessCarlie

I really don't have anything to say of value at the moment. I just finished watching ep 9 and all I can think is a whole bunch of expletives. I really enjoyed this episode, and

.

GoddessCarlie

Ah yes, My Boss My Hero is my next goal.

GoddessCarlie

I hope tarot cards will be involved and that they use them correctly, not just "oh no! It's the death card!!"

GoddessCarlie

Happy birthday Masami! Here is her website but I'm not sure if it has been updated in a while. I'm not sure, a lot of the encoding is stuffing up on my browser

GoddessCarlie

Yolchen, I wish I could get my mum into dramas, that would be awesome. At the moment I'm working on my partner - he's actually enjoying Hana Kimi but is too proud to say so.

GoddessCarlie

Thanks for the list! I'm looking forward to Maou, and will probably watch Cat Street, Koizora and Code Blue

GoddessCarlie

Episode 7 is definitely heading in a better direction, a direction that should have, in my opinion, come sooner. 1. Knight is acting less robotic. This should have come much sooner. But now that he is, I feel like I can finally relate to him better, feel more sorry for him, like him better as a char...

GoddessCarlie

The plot isn't something I'd usually go for, but I'll be watching this for the cast. It's good to step out of my usual genres and who knows, I might love it.

GoddessCarlie

What do we think of Michiru's ex-work mate? Is she in some kind of horrible relationship herself, and thus became a bully because she saw Michiru's life as perfect, with a nice boyfriend? That's what I tend to be thinking. She could be stalking Michiru, but somehow I doubt it. I do like that the min...

GoddessCarlie

Thanks for your subtitles! I love Satoshi Tsumabuki; I think he's a fab actor. And whoever plays his sister... she sometimes looks eerily similar to the girl from Goong. As to what I thought about this movie... I thought the ending was lame. Granted, this could be because I just recently started wa...

GoddessCarlie

I think that episode six was much better. It seems to be heading into a better direction at the moment, even if Soushi loves cream puffs more than Riko.

I'd totally be down with a Ohno/Toma group, similar to Shuuji to Akira

What an awesome idea! Best idea of the century.

GoddessCarlie

I really want to see this!

GoddessCarlie

to add on to the debate, it also depends on what style of romaji you use etc. For instance, in my style of romaji, Ohno's name would be Oono. However, in all the magazines his name is romazied as Ohno. I believe it is also "Riida" as well, but I'd have to flick through my magazines again t...

GoddessCarlie

This seems to have slipped away into non existence. I know I haven't even watched passed episode two. Anyone else still watching this? Should I push on, does it get better?

GoddessCarlie

Great spot with the keys on the cups! I can't believe we didn't see that earlier!! Keys are definitely important. They include people, and they exclude people. They let people in but they also keep people in. A key is a way out... hmmm...

GoddessCarlie

I tend to blame the feeling of Knight being too robotic not on the actor but the script and the sound effects. The sound effects are the most obvious - how can we forget that he is a robot if they keep playing those rediculas noises every time he moves? As for the script, personally I would have lik...

GoddessCarlie

I don't think it is one of our three narrators, mainly because they are narrating. I am leaning towards Sosuke, mainly because his character probably deserves to be in jail and I don't think it'll go that way. My other option is Eri, - but only in that she gets in the way when one of the other chara...

GoddessCarlie

I think this is a load of crap. At least in my experience I'd say that guys are just as sensitive as girls and girls are just as physical as boys. That it is "natural" for guys to be violent is just a huge cop out. Don't try to justify bad behaviour with a chromosome. Isn't that a bit har...

As for me, I say yes, but everyone has different opinions and the only way you'll know if it is worth watching acording to you is to watch it and find out.

Yes, i'm difficult, I know! But I think this is the best drama of the season so far.

GoddessCarlie

Btw, I really dislike subtitles in asian dramas. Asian language tend to have this somewhat subliminal context about things said. There are many different ways to say practically the same thing, but each way expresses a totally different emotion. Wouldn't you agree? Just a random thought. Without su...

GoddessCarlie

@ AKlRA: Things always get lost in translation, and for a lot of us we depend on them to really understand. I don't like Sousuke as a person, but I like him as a character - i think he is an interesting character. I agree with someone who said that the story line revolving around "What will he ...

GoddessCarlie

I agree with your analogy. However, I think he will remember Mika, because in Riko's profile he knows her. That's just the way that I thought it worked, so when he said her name, I was like "Ok, he's just gone back to the way things were before", it never occurred to me to think "awww...

GoddessCarlie

I've very excited! I love Riida and Toma, so I hope that this will be good. It will be good seeing Riida in a drama, and I love his dark hair. I hope that it is really dark - I don't know why, but I'm in the mood for something black.

GoddessCarlie

Don't you guys think it would have more tension, however, if Knight acted more human - maybe from learning how to be more human. And also stopping the stupid sounds when he turns his head or blinks sometimes. If Knight acted more human, there would be more excitement - Rika perhaps maybe falling in ...

GoddessCarlie

As tempting as it is to watch, I am going to try to avoid the previews at the end, because I agree it does give too much away. As much as I can't resist reading spoilers, I don't want to have any expectations when I watch this show, I want everything to be a surprise.

GoddessCarlie

I think that the drama is obviously leading for a Rika - Soushi romance in the end. If they want the audience to root more for Knight, they should make him a bit more "human". Sure, he is great, the ideal boyfriend, but he still doesn't seem "real" and therefore Rika wont end up ...

GoddessCarlie

I agree that this is one of my favourite dramas. I feel in love with everything about it. Even learnt a bit of sign language to go along with it!

GoddessCarlie

I'm all for Night acting like a robot, but I was hoping by now he would have learnt a bit more about human behaviour, or at least there would be more issues with his confusing human behaviour. Besides the whole "I'm Rika's Boyfriend" and not getting what Mika is trying to do. I really like...

GoddessCarlie

belleza some more thumbs up from me! I enjoyed reading your post. Here's some of my crazy cup thoughts, thanks zeiroc for the link, I couldn't find it before. There is obviously something going on with the cups. In the first episode, Michiru is drinking from her version of the cup, the pink cup. We...

GoddessCarlie

Thanks for the links! How awesome is his hair!!!

GoddessCarlie

I have to search back and find the cup theories. I have one of my own, so I want to see if our theories are similar! I think this drama is very watchable. I think a show is a success if it stirs some kind of emotion. That's why I don't like horrors - because I never feel frightened in them, and if I...

GoddessCarlie

I don't want to read the rest of the thread at the moment because I'm an episode behind, but how powerful is this show?! It is awesome. I believe this will go down as one of the best dramas out there.

GoddessCarlie

I am now very much interested in seeing the original, I think i will have to get it! As for the first episode, I'm sure there is much missed because of my limited knowledge of Japanese, but I did enjoy it.

GoddessCarlie

honeatcha:

GoddessCarlie

ryoko11 , excellent review. I agree with everything you said. Riko came across as very immature, but I have to wonder if this is a bit of Aibu Saki coming through. The only other role I have seen her in was Utahime, and she came across as immature there as well. I didn't mind it so much in Utahime,...

GoddessCarlie

I have to admit, I like the change in Soshi to a player. I think it adds more tension. No way would Riko go for a guy like that! But he's going to change and she's going to change - the differences and the misunderstandings will make for good tv. Better than the "the perfect guy who was there a...

GoddessCarlie

I watched this without subs and enjoyed it. Very violent. But it was funny seeing everyone's hair, and trying to act tough when they are just too cute.

GoddessCarlie

I too would prefer a Japanese song!

GoddessCarlie

Thank you for the images. I'm looking forward to this!

GoddessCarlie

Megumi: you can check who's subbing what at the fansub wiki

GoddessCarlie

For the Fall season, I recommend Utahime. It didn't get good ratings, but I thought it was a really good drama.

GoddessCarlie

Is anyone contemplating watching this? I'm not sure, it sounds a bit over the top, even for me.

GoddessCarlie

Thanks for the photos, Masami looks awesome with long hair.

GoddessCarlie

Yuu Watase is my favourite mangaka, so I'm really looking forward to this! I hope it's great.

GoddessCarlie

I'm another one looking forward to this! It looks like a great cast and an interesting story line. I hope it doesn't dissapoint

GoddessCarlie

I haven't seen the original, but I have heard lots about it. I will be watching the series and hopefully it'll be good (if different) from the original.

GoddessCarlie

woo hoo about Honey and Clover. Can't wait to see if Oguri Shun and Matsumoto Jun are in any dramas...

GoddessCarlie

Well, I'm really enjoying Uta Hime this season, although I've only seen the first episode. I thought it was fresh and fun. All others this season I've been disappointed with. It's funny and has romance which are my two favourite elements.

GoddessCarlie

I'm in agreement over a lot of people here. I wasn't exactly thrilled with the first episode, but I'll give it a bit of a chance. My main urg over it was the lack of depth in the characters. They were caricatures, which is fine but I'm looking for a drama where characters have depth. A quirky trait ...

GoddessCarlie

I'd say if they are $40 for a full season, they are not legitimate dvds. From YesAsia.com for example, a season is usually around $200.

Ha! No, it feels like an honour that you said that about my site! (0-~)

GoddessCarlie

I think I will like this... well, I liked the first episode more than I thought I was going to. Still, I didn't understand much, so I'll have to rewatch when the subs are released.

GoddessCarlie

Well, overall it wasn't totally breath takingly wonderful, but it was a "nice" little show. The English was probably the most entertaining part. I will perhaps keeps it for when I'm a bit better at Japanese so I can understand a bit more of what was said, but apart from that it I don't thi...

Nice website BxLibra! I enjoyed reading it

GoddessCarlie

I'm looking forward to watching this. I'm glad others have said they enjoyed it.

GoddessCarlie

I always watch shows in Raw first. Then with subs just to clear up some things I didn't understand. It's great listening practise, I really recommend it!!

GoddessCarlie

I've watched the first half, and I'm enjoying it somewhat. I like that they are communicating a lot in English, as that is better than Indian people suddenly speaking Japanese, but that doesn't mean I understand everything that was said. Pretty much the English words I understood would be what I wou...

GoddessCarlie

I'm looking forward to this one, I hope it's good (and funny!)

GoddessCarlie

OK, I admit I don't know much about this one or the people in it (I should know, I know that much!) Still, everyone is excited about this which makes me excited about this.

GoddessCarlie

I like comedies, and romances, but I'm not too sure if this one grabs me. I might wait to see what everyone else thinks first
