I can't believe it took me 10 years to discover this jdrama. And I even took the long way around at that. I was watching some Korean-Chinese crossover movie on Red by HBO, which reminded me of Uhm Jung-hwa so I looked her up because I like her in Get Karl! Then I saw she starred in He Who Can't Marr...

I can't believe it's been five years since I last posted on this thread. I've recently re-watched this and I'm amazed it still has that same hold on me eight years down the line. I still get lost in the silliness of it all. In 2015 someone posted the actual places where they shot to non-sound stage ...

On KeyHole TV Sunday night 9pm Tokyo time. I'm more looking forward to seeing Ouran High. I think it's on the 22nd of July at midnight (2400) Tokyo time.

tunix_2008

I just saw the first episode of the remake on KeyHole TV. It's closer to the Taiwanese version than HnK 2008. I don't think I'm going to see the rest of the remake it's just not as cohesive as the 2008 version.

tunix_2008

Yeah, KeyHole was a bit troublesome during the whole broadcast but I stuck to it thinking there might never be a chance to see it. Tanpatsu's like these rarely get uploaded much less subbed. Although Maki fans might be so inclined to subbing it since they do for all Maki's projects but I haven't rea...

tunix_2008

I just saw Kikoku on KeyHole TV. Although I didn’t understand a word of it, it seemed self- explanatory for the most part. The scene between Oguri Shun and Horikita Maki on the one hand is formulaic and has been repeated in so many movies in the East and West that you don’t even have to understand t...

:lol I guess it has to do with both their military past and artistic license. Although military rule has ceased in Sokor for decades now it was only up until the mid 90s that they had their first civilian president in 30 years. Their recent history has been peppered with riots, dissidence and univer...

:scratchchin: I was just wondering the other day in Favorite Manga thread about somebody making this into live action. I should wonder more often because it comes true quite quickly :P.

Actually the question of legality not only falls on you but on the youtube uploader as well. When youtube yanks it from the uploader's channel then no matter how many times you or your reader clicks on the link the video won't appear. A message like "This video has been removed by the uploader&...

The videos were up last year in a different channel but I received a message from youtube to take it down saying (i don't remember which) Sony or Fuji owned the content and wanted it removed. I figured if I changed the channel and not put up the name Hana Kimi, they'd be harder for the complaining p...

I kept thinking, if that was Toma in the drama instead, they could spin it off as HK LOL haha At the last episode, Nakatsu wakes up with Sano calling him "anata baka?" :P I can totally see that happening. It's like they grew up to become cops :lol Hiro should just stick to "growing u...

Somekind of Wonderful!!!! :wub: Totally agree!!!! I love that kiss scene in the garage!!!! Just One of the Guys is on youtube while English subbed Gakko ja Oshierarenai! is available on veoh.

I don't really notice Hiro's eyebrows so I guess for me there isn't anything wrong with them. I mean eyebrows are very noticeable if they're done wrong since I don't notice it then maybe it's okay for me. Hiro's hair however is another matter. IMO, he only ever had decent hair in Kamen Rider. It see...

For Halloween we watched Ghost Train and Neighbor No. 13. The first one is decent enough much like The Ring and The Grudge. Neighbor No. 13 is disgusting. Every disgusting thing you can think of, short of hurling poop around, is there. The whole movie was boring. Even the long, drawn out scenes that...

tunix_2008

The lead guy in Q.E.D., Nakamura Aoi, also starred in a high school comedy, slice of life series called Gakko ja Oshierarenai! It's a cross between Nobuta and American Pie. It's leagues more realistic than Hana Kimi (which, of course, is not realistic at all) and tackles real teenagers' issues like ...

I'm looking forward to watching Neighbor No. 13 on Halloween together with Shun's other horror movie, Ghost Train. I still think it's bad but you can see for yourself -- Shun's take on the queen's language. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8NUNmnT6Bs As to his singing, for me it was more like he was ...

i loved this series alot, and all of the cast, except maybe Sano. If you've read the foregoing discussion then it goes without saying that quite a number of people disagree with the latter part of this statement. I keep saying it's a matter of taste -- to each his own. They left us off with a cliff...

tunix_2008

It was mentioned in more than one dialogue exchange that Sano and Nakatsu were BFFs before Sano's "I v ant to be alone" drama mode. And if you look closely at the locker-style closet inside their dorm room -- there were pictures of Sano and Nakatsu and other dorm mates on it. Plus it seems...

tunix_2008

Not that the manga was bad -- it's just manga. I mean, it's the way mangas of this genre are expected to develop. Unlike jdramas that have 8-12 episodes only, a manga's popularity is measured by its longevity much like US soaps. In order to prolong the series, the mangaka gives the readers a steady ...

tunix_2008

If you didn’t like the rendering of Hana Kimi Japan, let me save you hours of downloading time you'd never get back: stay away from the Taiwan version. The story line is much flimsier since it was truer to the manga. At least in the Japan version, Ashiya was found out that’s why she had to leave. In...

tunix_2008

I agree with your adulation of Oguri Shun. His portrayal of Sano Izumi showcases how “less” could be “more” reminiscent of great western actors like Pacino and Hanks. He has very limited dialogue and had to rely more on body language to portray the character. Nevertheless, he was able to make his pr...

There's Ikemen Sobaya Tantei. It's about a good-looking Soba restaurant owner who solve crimes around his neighborhood. It stars Fujiki Naohito of Proposal Daisakusen and Hotaru no HIkari, Horiuchi Keiko, Furuta Arata of Yume Wo Kanaeru Zou, and Namase Katsuhisa of Gokusen series.

The West Wing - This makes me feel intelligent when I get to understand half of the dialogue.

Our rediscovery of jdramas began with Gokusen. My sister was keen on the anime version and when a local network dubbed and aired the live action, she started watching that too. It was the same with GTO, anime first then live action. The first jdrama she watched independent from anime was Hanayori Da...

I understand the appeal of using MKV because file sizes are smaller therefore easier to upload, download, and store.
