Ive been a true fan of this site for many years now, it kicks ass. But recently, especially the last seasons raw uploads for japanese dramas are really slow, and for some there are only files with irritating chinese subtitles. I have no right to complaint as all of this is for free, but i just wond...

This show is brilliant and just full of fun

I love a lot of the references that it makes in each episode to stuff you see in RPG games

I can say that this is one dorama that I should of paid attention to when the season started, but I'm glad that I took a chance with it.

Could it be Kou Kou Kyoushi 2003?

If not, could it be LIFE?

Do you remember the actors and/or actresses that started in the drama you're describing?

I agree with the points that JaJe mentioned about dubbing. IMHO, most of the dubs I've seen from various movies and shows are horrible to the point that I would rather laugh at it than pay attention to what is said. I can't remember the last time I saw a dubbed movie or show that was didn't make me ...

Since I've been lurking for about five years now, there have been a lot of stuff that's been going on this site.

something isn't right about the cast for ラスト・フレンズ (Last Friends). I don't remember any of the actors/actresses being named for the drama.

Otherwise, this should be an interesting season for jdramas. I hope none of them will disappoint me.

@ainawy: I'm not annoyed at all by your questions, but if you read the article, it not too difficult to understand what it is about. @elly_ketz: Not exactly since dramas are also copyrighted, just like records and movies.

I think you're referring to "Hitotsu Yane No Shita" with Eguchi Yosuke and Sakai Noriko (who I like a lot). This drama aired in 1993. I liked this drama series but it wasn't as good as "Tokyo Love Story" or "Sugao No Mamade" in my opinion. I think this was rebroadcast ...

She hasn't dropped off since she married that 50 year old guy. Besides, she recently finished the drama "Haken no Hinkaku", which is probably why you won't see her in other dramas this season.

Thanks for the info, jump

I hope Tomoko Yamaguchi does make a comeback to dramas again. I miss seeing her on dramas since her semi-retirement in 1996 (that would make it 10 years already and no, I don't feel that the 2004 drama that she wrote doesn't count as a return to acting

).

I think the other movies that Hollywood was considering remaking was My Sassy Girl and My Wife is a Gangster.
