Yay! I thought that were were only 10 episodes, and I was bleak I wasn't home to watch the last one.
11 episodes makes me happy!!!

tsumabukis

Happy Maou daaay!!

tsumabukis

This question totally depends on who, when and where you're asking. :P If you're thinking about Japan, current polls are as follows: TV Life: 1) Doumoto Tsuyoshi 2) Ohno Satoshi 3) Ikuta Toma 4) Yamapi (but this is in a vote for their current drama characters) And on the official "2008 Johnny's Rank...

I missed it last night cuz 3 of my friends are on my country's Olympic team and I wanted to watch them! I think the ratings are going to suffer quite badly - everyone I know here fell asleep watching the Olympics. :P But the Japan team was out quite early, so maybe they changed the channel after tha...

tsumabukis

Doesn't really matter where you live... it's still 12 hours to Maou. ;)

tsumabukis

Ladies and gents, iiiiiiiiiit's
MAOU DAY!!!

tsumabukis

Of course it's about spelling though. If I didn't speak English (which they clearly do not) I probably wouldn't have figured it out as quickly as I did. I could understand it if it were an anagram doable by switching the hiragana around, but it's only doable using the alphabet. And how effective wo...

tsumabukis

Tis on!! Oh man, I love it! It's so flippin' clever!

I don't know how the ratings can be so low!!

tsumabukis

Besides some random programme about palm-reading... no idea.

But the "Flash News" segment is over, so maybe soon...

tsumabukis

Gyaaaaaaaaaaa! Where's my Maou??

tsumabukis

Stormy subs is totally on the ball with this, with episode 2 already out. Thanks guys!!!

I'm gonna wait for the hardsubs. ^_^

tsumabukis

Nice comment, crocus. This is exactly why I didn't want to watch the original first. How many times has it happened that no matter how good the remake, people always compare it poorly to the original? The original isn't accessible to all people everywhere, and they made Maou for a different audience...

tsumabukis

battlegirlai - I totally agree. There should definitely be a place for arguing about the crapness of certain dramas. :D This thread is pretty funny. I don't know about other people, but I'm certainly not going to not watch a drama because of what people say on here. I'm watching Yukan Club as we spe...

tsumabukis

I also don't understand the Stand Up!! hate... it was one of my favourite dramas of all time!

tsumabukis

*Squeee!* Can't wait for the subs to come out!! Was busy working last night, so I couldn't concentrate fully on the Japanese, so there were parts I didn't understand. But I have decided that I love Toma's acting in it. Maybe I'm totally biased (ok, take out the "maybe"!), but I think he's playing th...

tsumabukis

Maou in TWO hours, kids!!

Heh heh. I would definitely hesitate to call them perfect. Remember Riida's nose-picking thing? Yeh.

Having said that, I have been listening to One Love on repeat for about half an hour now.

tsumabukis

Wow!!

Those pictures of his are absolutely incredible!

Wasn't such a huge fan of Arashi before, but I'm gradually starting to respect them more and more after learning how crazy talented their members are. ^_^

tsumabukis

LadyMercury - Way back when, you said you read the script? Where did you get hold of it? ^_^

tsumabukis

In order of fluency... English, Afrikaans, Japanese, Dutch, Japanese Sign Language, Xhosa.

So, technically 6, but I only started learning JSL a few months ago, and my Xhosa keeps being replaced with Japanese words.

So... 4 confidently, and 2 with a bit of a struggle and lots of thinking time.

tsumabukis

Yeh, Friday nights are a horrible time for dramas to be on. :( Don't really understand how Code Blue's ratings are way higher, either, cuz the only hype around here lately has been for Maou (well, that and the HYD movie)... maybe a little for Kimutaku's drama... but all the magazines are covered wit...

Hmm.. Didn't his chip burn out? So doesn't that mean it'll never work again? Besides, didn't Riiko keep it?

Well, that would be the reality, yes...
But that didn't stop them for the first season.

tsumabukis

Ahahahahahahaha!! That was hilarious!!

And fangirly squeals for Toma, because he is just too beautiful to be real!

tsumabukis

Toma did overact and it was annoying at some times, but, hopefully he'll settle into his character. It's just so different seeing him in this type of role, he's always played a goof ball, that maybe I am being too harsh on his acting this time around? I dunno, but I do think he played off the knife...

tsumabukis

LOL, I just had a mental image of Ohno going, TO THE BAT CAVE and pulling on one of his law books to get inside his secret red room. Yes, I am weird. Hahaha!! Now I'm gonna get that picture in my head every time he goes into that room... :lol Yeah, but I think he's getting too emotional, then again...

tsumabukis

Just finished the last episode and boo'ed my little eyes out. :cry: I loved Night, but I liked him from the beginning, so the emotional impact was there for me. :D I do think it was a bit of a cop-out at the end though, too. I'd have been totally pissed if I was Soshi, and Riika's consolation prize ...

tsumabukis

I also think the red room is going to be really important. In a photographic dark room, the best colour light to use is actually yellow, not red. And, as long as you're not physically processing anything at the time, it's totally fine to have the lights on. So there's obviously a major reason they c...

You can get one of the brochures pretty much anywhere that sells.... well.... anything. :P Maybe not so much any more, because it's past the date on the front, but you can find them in stacks at Family Marts (where you can also buy F4 cocoa, or "Hana Yori Chocolate" or a "Hana Yori Dango Roll", a ho...

tsumabukis

Heh heh... Out of the 25 or so dramas I've watched so far, I have to say the worst one is Blackjack Ni Yoroshiku. I love Tsumabuki, but this was just so boring! About 30 minutes into every episode I was just sitting there thinking "when is this going to end?" I gave up on it about 4 episodes before ...

tsumabukis

Yeh, can't wait to DL it, cuz the sound on my TV is crap! Couldn't hear a lot of what the girl was saying. :unsure: Yes please. If they have one shower scene per episode that's sure to make me a happyhappyhappy girl!! They can alternate between Ohno and Toma. :wub: The flashbacks sucked! But they w...

tsumabukis

My feelings exactly. Hopefully Toma will get more into his role without pushing it too far in the rest of the season, but I think it's fantastic so far!! Super scary! The scene with Ninomiya was great!! And I can't wait to see how he's pulling it off, and what he's going to do for the others... Yeep...

tsumabukis

Was about to comment on the cameos, but I won't spoil the surprise. ;)

Mate! Seriously! Spoiler tags!!

I only just starting watching the last 2 episodes.

tsumabukis

Maybe that should be posted as a spoiler! Heh heh.

Sigh... I don't know enough Japanese to understand this all completely, but what is there is beautiful!

Toma's character's a smoker though. Eck!

And suddenly... for some inexplicable reason... I really want a Coolish.

tsumabukis

"Anoo yarooouuu!"

*squeals*

How much more hotness could you possibly get in one man?

tsumabukis

Just 5 more minutes before I see my beautiful Tomakun on the television!! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!

I am such an embarrassingly creepy fangirl.

But yeh, I'm watching, and there's nothing yet... mou sukoshi machimashou ne!

Edit: Me too! Doh!!

It's oooooooooooooooooooooon!

tsumabukis

Just finished watching this drama - it was fantastic!! :D Grabbing the special from TV Nihon now, but does anyone know where I can get hold of the movie? It's not on TV Nihon, nor in any of the usual places I look. Really want to see how Narimiya Hiroki pulls off the otaku look! :D As someone else a...

So you're in the tropical bit of Japan. No need to worry about snow down there! Okinawa=warmer weather but more yanks? I was only there for 3 weeks, but we covered plenty of ground. Perhaps a bit too much. No, no worrying about snow down here - unless we actually got it, in which case, I'd be very ...

tsumabukis

Mate, those rocks of yours in Beppu on the previous page are actually eggs. ;) It's showing you that the water is naturally so hot you can boil eggs in it, and they then sell the boiled eggs after. How long have you lived here for? You're really lucky to have been able to travel so much. I live in O...

I named my car Toshi so that when I'm going up hills I can shout "Come on! Come on Toshi!!"

Hey, I'm wanting to edit a DramaWiki article, but it's not letting me log in. I tried logging in with my d-addicts details, but it said no such user existed. Wanted to then create a new wiki account (in case the two were seperate), but there weren't any fields to fill anything in. Help? Apologies if...

Hai! Kanpai!
Have to go with Orion.
Best as a fresh draft, though.

"still don't know more than maybe 5000 Kanji"? I think 5000 Kanji is a lot for a Japanese person. In daily life you only need about 2000-3000 Kanji! What did you expect?! Gyaa! Sorry, that was a really stupid typo. :P I meant 2,000. :P A few of my friends still need the furigana in their manga. ;) ...

Fully. The only reason I did the JLPT was because I needed motivation to study. When I first came over to Japan, I really had very little motivation to study the language properly, as most things I dealt with daily were in English. But then, I got off my backside, went out and made some Japanese fri...

Sunglasses in fashion in Japan at the moment are the giant ones like redkittygal posted. Glasses are squarish, with thick frames, usually in fairly bright colours. Depends what circles you run in, and what your tastes are, but a lot of the younger girls will wear them with sparkly things on the fram...

My favourite places in Tokyo are: The Rikuguen (I may have spelt that wrong :P) Landscape Poem Garden - it's really peaceful and beautiful. Asakusa - You can shop and see the sights at the same time! Leading up to the pagoda is a massive marketplace. Dunno what kind of shopping you want to do, but h...

I'd just like to defer slightly from what sandersmc said... be wary of the timeframes he's given. I've lived in Japan for 2 years and only now do I feel I have a communicative grasp on the language (I'm a little beyond level 3 on the JLPT, if that means anything to anyone). Of course, this depends o...
