Ummm, that actually isn't a good part of London and you are far from all the fun stuff. Your best bet would be to get a hotel around the Marble Arch area and then just catch the underground to the Tower and Tower Bridge (mistakenly thought to be the London bridge. ^_^). If you stay in this area you ...

i like dramas with Yamashita Tomohisa and Kamenashi Kazuya


If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend 1 Pound no Fukuin (1 pound gospel). It stars Kamenashi Kazuya as a boxer who falls in love with a nun and it is a fun romantic comedy.

Hi, I just happened to catch the tail end of a Japanese show on the Imaginasian channel a while back about a teenage boy who could see ghosts. He lives in a house with his crazy family and loads of ghosts which only he can see, one of whom is his grandfather who helps him deal with this talent. One ...

I don't think I would term it 'hate', I would just say more 'meh' and 'yawn'.

Of course, I also hearted Kimi wa Petto just because the plot was so bizarre and Jun did a phenom job in it, but everyone against it as well.

Yep, check out Mop Girl (eps. 1-3 are currently available right now). If you are into funny manga-inspired shows then the Yukan Club is pretty good as well as Fuma no Kojiro. Also, Galileo rocked, even though it isn't comedy...though it did have a lot of funny moments.
