Asian DramaWiki Forum

There are a few fairly large fandubbing communities out there, still, although they've been tending towards radio dramas and original projects (radio, animated shorts, and visual novel-style games) for the last few years... It's mostly divided between the people who go "omg anime I wanna be a v...

Anyone have any info on a season 2 OST? My playlist wants that organ song SO badly.



EDIT: Answering my own question: release date is apparently 3/3/10. I don't wanna wait that long!

All I can say is that I just about died when they spoofed a certain other show from this season. Oh, j-drama, how I love you.

Yeah, I got the LIAR GAME vibe, too, although, I also was thinking Death Note at the same time. I think I described it to my roommate as LIAR GAME, Death Note, and Law and Order all mixed together. Anyway - can't wait to see where it goes... Definitely is interesting, though I'm also curious to see ...

This looks like it's going to be amazing. Can't wait to see it....~~~ (I mean, with a title like "Witch Trial" it's gotta be either amazing, or terrible. Seeing that cast, it's going to be quite the former. Plus, theme song by Fukuyama? Yes, please.)

ô.o..oh, didn`t know this, sorry xD you watched it? ;_; Yeah, it was only a couple weeks ago. I found out the time it was going to be broadcast when I was watching something else and there was a commercial. XD It was just good luck. It was sooooo ridiculous; I was trying not to laugh to loudly or I...

I was surprised when my friend told me that Mizushima and Ayaka got married, but good for them. <3 There's apparently a little bit of work-related drama going on because of it... takoyograph said it'll be aired this spring ôo i`m happy cause SARS is planning to sub it it will be aired ...?! it aired...

My brain REALLY hurt after watching this one. o_o; Still. Very original, to say the least...

This looks entertaining. :D Definitely on my list. And here I thought the line up this spring didn't look as interesting as last season - now that it's starting, I'm proving myself wrong. Also - Kimura's hair. All I can say is "Wow. That's hair." Not sure about my opinion on it yet. XD; We...

Have you tried GTO? If not, I'd suggest that one be near the top of your list.

... Am I just slow on the uptake, or did anyone else notice that the vast majority of the butler's names are subway stations in Tokyo.....? (The exceptions being the Shibatas and Shinobu...)

GAH!!! My night just gets better and better! Can't wait to see this - I so enjoyed this show....

Gah!! That's exciting news. =D Now I'll just be waiting with bated breath for this to air.....!! *hums happily*

@riku: I do have LJ, I just rarely use it for anything other than comments. ;; anyway - username is hidekodahlia, if you'd like to go find me. ^^

omg - the Totem Pole!! They did manage to pull it off even though they had no idea what it was.... XD I guess I totally took for granted just always knowing what those were. hahah. "Stop calling me 'aniki'!!!" <-- Nino and Aiba just love pushing buttons, though. haha. That whole show is ju...

Speaking of Shukudai-kun -- your avatar is hilarious and wonderful. XD Do you know what episode that was?? I haven't seen that one yet and I think I really ought to...!

They were one of the first ones I got into, and they stuck... ^^; And yep~ They're back together (minus, hide, of course, since it would take some interesting voodoo to bring him back... ;_; ). YES! The helicopter was pure genius on Nagase's part. (Nagase was surprisingly hilarious to watch - I forg...

haha, yeah, I prefer Diru's older stuff... Saw them in concert couple years ago when they came to the States (best Valentine's Day in a while for me!), though, and it was fun. X-Japan is still the reigning favorite, for me... (SO~ happy they got back together.) Arashi's probably just after that, hah...

Y'know, it's interesting: this topic was almost my senior thesis. <_< Changed it at the last minute... Anyway - yeah, it is a very interesting thing to look at. I have a lot of friends and acquaintances that are professionals and academics in the anime industry (and not a lot of them have seen much ...

But yeah, they're the first Jpop group I ever liked, too! I'm a huge Jrock fan, and then there's Arashi. LOL. I'm a huge j-rock fan, too, but love ARASHI. I was in Japan back in '01 and my host sister was a huge ARASHI fan, so I got hooked. XD The other bands/people I liked at the time were, like, ...

(Maybe it helped that the weather was also in the mood- grey skies, cold, rainy...seems like a movie script now...^_^) I don't think it's just you - it was like that when I went, too. (Coincidence, secretly.) More than that, even, is the feel of the place - it's completely different from just about...

I completely agree (as does my roommate) that Becky would make an excellent Renge. =D

This has been on my mind the last couple days (all of a sudden, there was a turf war between Ouran and Eitoku[HYD] in my head. Seriously, wtf.), so I'll put in my two cents as well... Tamaki: Miura Haruma (second choice, Wentz Eiji) http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b219/hidekodahlia/other%20random%...

I highly suggest going to Peace Park and the museum and visiting the various related sites around the city - it's a very powerful place. Miyajima is also a great spot to visit, like others have said. From my various adventures in Japan, I find that going just off the main roads is the best thing to ...

Sometimes, I think I should read spoilers... it would save me a great deal of angst, time, and tears. ;_; I thought it was a little cliche at first, but I enjoyed the characters and the actors, so I gave it a chance........ and then it destroyed my ability to be happy, temporarily. Maybe it's becaus...

I would just like to express my absolute amusement at the Gokusen reference near the end of episode 2. I was watching it at work, and laughed rather loudly in my very quiet bookstore... heh heh...

Amen to that.

This one definitely looks interesting. Can't wait to see it!

It looks like it will be entertaining enough to laugh at, at the worst. At best, it'll be an interesting AU adventure with some cool make up that will expose more people to Japanese pop culture through an American lens.

I, for one, am looking forward to seeing what they do with it, good or bad.

As someone who teaches Japanese, I've found these pretty useful, though they're a lot more useful if you have a basic knowledge of the language... http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/columns/0002/ I would recommend "Japanese for Busy People" as a very basic, easy to understand, introductory book f...

They still are coming out with good music, and are expanding into other areas, as well. I see no reason why they shouldn't continue with ARASHI, since they still all seem to enjoy it. There are plenty of very famous Japanese musicians that are in their 30s or older that are still making music and ar...

I originally got into ARASHI in '01 when I went to Japan, and then kinda fell out of the loop for years... I'm so glad that they're still so popular!! They've always been one of my favs...

Yay! Utaban... Good times. Will have to keep an eye out for that one. =D

Aaah~ Alas, if only I could go to Europe for this...!! *wistful*
