I can't believe no one has posted here in almost three years. I watched him in Hana Kimi 2011, and now in Hungry and I'm loving him. He's just so kawaii. I had to bump up this thread in hopes people (who are much better at finding good pictures) start posting more. I love his smile, it lights up the...

Finally got around to coming over here to sqeee about Hungry. As much as I love Osamu Mukai, I'm rooting for TakuXChie. He's just sooooo adorable and he didn't get the girl in Hana Kimi 2011, he should get the girl now. Every time he pulls Chie into a hug my heart just goes "awwwwwww". Any...

@nnnc: I agree with you, I loved that part! However I felt bad for the little girl who lost Riki. But when your dog has a dream... *grin*. He's a natural, at least. And general thoughts about the episode I loved how much the general population helped. It was awesome to see the kids giving their mone...

Now that I've finally watched the final episode with subs and really know what was being said, I have to say I found it very emotionally fulfilling. I thought that Ren finally became an adult, and I thought this was the best episode acting wise for his character. I agree that they could have had a f...

Two of my favourites are comedies: Deka Wanko- Rookie detective Ichiko "Wanko" Hanamori (Mikako Tabe) wears Gothic Lolita style of clothes, while solving cases with her acute dog like sense of smell! It's very meta (references to the actors outside life /previous roles) Unubore Keiji - A 3...

@babyjoe: I'm not offended, I just wanted say my opinion too. That's the reason for these forums, so we can discuss the dramas we love. We may not always agree, but that adds to the discussion. If it was all "oh I love him, I think he's awesome"...etc. then it's not really a discussion but...

Since Shu is my favourite character in this drama I feel the need to defend him. :D I think his attitude is about right, he might seem sad, but to me it feels right because he's spent the entire time loving Miko from afar, watching her fall for one of his best friends and he can't do anything about ...

I have to say I loved the ending of this. I thought it was very natural and adorable! I just re-watched the original endings, and I definitly like this one better. But then again, I hate how wooden Horita Maki is whenever she has a kiss scene...so the whole airport kiss with Oguri Shun looks awkward...

In the first episode, IIRC Mabuchi says that Real Mio got in a drunken fight and had to have surgery in America to fix his broken nose and he'd need 3 months to recover, but A.N.JELL (probably the director) weren't going to wait that long, so he brought in Miko, otherwise they'd find someone else.

Every episode I love Mamina(the 'queen') more and more! Episode 9: I absolutely loved it when Neion comes back after getting the sugar cane, and Mamina takes her hat and welcomes her home. BAHAHAHA She freaking rocks! Or when she implies she's going to dress up like a guy too...Poor Mazuru, she look...

Okay, something's been bothering me about this show. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but I find it hard to believe that "heart failure" is the reason for so many deaths. Maybe it's because I watch too many episode of various CSIs but it seems like they don't do a great job at investigating ...

oooh, oooh, oooh Yanie, let me know too!

I think it says something about Gackt's talent that he creeped me out so completely that I was happy to see him gone. I do want to know if that was his real tongue or not, because if it was, that's just freaky. I've never read the book, and in fact didn't even know that there was one. But I don't th...

I agree with what you've said above, I do love the fact that the king admitted that (like Choukun) he was attracted to Son Neion. And how he was so happy to find a woman who looked like him. I did feel sorry for him a bit because when she gives herself to him, I think he realizes that there's someon...

I haven't seen the Korean version, but I read your spoiler. I'm not sure about the details of episode 8 as I don't actually speak Japanese but: While that one guy saw Mio's face when she was dressed up, I don't know if it's been leaked that the girl in Shu's arms is 'Mio's' twin Miko or not, cause I...

okay....

It's a bit of a spoof on the whole detective drama but Metantei no Okite is entertaining.

For mystery/suspense if you haven't seen the Bloody Monday series, it's worth a watch.

Toyko Dogs is a buddy/odd couple police drama that I would put on a must watch list.

Gotta love the cameos from previous seasons.

I also want to say I love the ending theme for this show. I need to get it!

I may have to find Erai Tokoro ni Totsuide Shimatta so that I can see them in a comedy. They have such chemistry to watch. I do feel a little sorry for her friend, who loves her so, but betrays her due to Gackt's character I can't wait for the next episode, to see what happens next. I loved it when ...

Watching today's episode...Sano's little brother is CREEPY!

I peeked... that's what I figured, but with JDramas you never know...think about all the mangas with brotherlove and sisterlove...they could have done it. Hiding thoughts on episode 6: I LOVED Yuki's reaction to the fact that Mio was a girl. He was so happy that he wasn't gay. It made me laugh out l...

I find it annoying that she tears up constantly too, but I guess when you've been raised in a nunnery, you don't have to deal with your emotions all that much...and it does give her an excuse to make that pig face that Mabuchi taught her, which is really funny. You'd think she'd have realized it's n...

I knew it was coming, but NOOOOO Gucchi!!!

I so love this drama. Nakamura Toru has such a sexy voice, and Gucchi is so naive. The characters play off each other so well.

Next week can't come fast enough!

enggrrl

as for Shu... if you've seen the kversion you'd feel the same. because I FELT the same for the KVersion, but not in this version which partly i think is because of Shu. i just don't feel the chemistry between him and Mio. the Kversion emmitted so much chemistry between the 2nd lead and the main act...

I agree, I thought the first two episodes were a little weird, especially how Misaki was punished for something out of her control (being stripped). but I do like Shirota Yuu's character...he is stoic, but it kinda works for him. (however if you want to see a totally different side of him, watch Sam...

Just started watching this show, and I love Nakama Yukie! I think the cast is great. The triangle of her, the Satsuma agent and her co-worker is very cute. Gackt is kinda scary.

enggrrl

I love this drama. I watch it twice, once on air, and again with subtitles. I do laugh at the fact that they aged Hideyoshi (grey hair, changing facial hair) but that everyone else looks almost the same (hair styles for Gou and her sisters, excepted). Especially Ieyasu, who seemed older than Hideyos...

She is a good singer, but I think she sounds like a girl. But then again so did Joey MacIntyre from NKOTB when they made their debut, so I guess if you think she's a boy, you'll just hear a boy with a high voice. I hate Nana, but I love her assistant. He makes me laugh! Friday's episode...eeeep! But...

Not only was original Oscar there, but I'm pretty sure that this week they're bringing back the original Hibari. While Sano has made a jump, he had to lower the bar, and he's not made the jump to compete with his rival. (Who I'm finding more attractive each week, even if he is evil...he was just so ...

I'm watching this but I've never seen the K-Drama. I agree that I thought Ren reminded me of Domyouji. I guess it's that spoiled bratty character that makes them seem similar. I'm liking Ren and Shu's actors but Yuki(?)'s actor doesn't seem the type to be considered an Ikemen...but everyone's got th...

If you really like him, don't miss the episode of VS arashi with him. It aired back on May 26, 2011 (Paradise Kiss team). Episode 138

Can I just say I love it whenever Shiratori introduces himself...each season (and sometimes multiple times a season) it gets longer and longer. I end up giggling to myself every time they start typing out the kanjis and they take up two or three lines. This is one of my all time favourite dramas.

I guess I'm the odd one out since I'm enjoying this version. Oh well, I'll keep watching, it's not like they'll cut it off mid-season if the ratings are bad (unlike in the US/Can).

I know there's a thread for the original Hana Kimi, but I figured that a new series needs a new thread. If the mods feel differently, please move this. I've just finished watching the 2nd episode, and I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would. As much as many of the characters are the same, the st...

I'm looking forward to this for Nari. He's definately one of my favourite Jdrama actors.

I watched that clip from As You Like It, I think that's the most I've ever seen Shun smile in any role.

Mods, if this isn't the right place, sorry! I tried to check if there was a similar thread already but I couldn't find one, so.....

There are lots of them I'd like to go out with, some of them have already been named: Mukai Osamu, Kaname Jun, Narimiya Hiroki, Kimura Takura but some I don't think have: Suzuki Ryohei (loved him as the bad guy in Majo Saiban) and Nakamura Toru (sexy old guy).

I wasn't planning on watching this one,I wasn't sure of the concept and I'm not a super fan of either of the big stars, but I know them from a few different things, so I thought...eh, I've got nothing else to watch, why not.... I'm going to keep watching this. It was really funny and also very touch...

So cute! I loved how they got Noi involved with the fashion show. I'm assuming that she knew it was a trick, but a good way to get her boy to show some feelings. I also thought the kiss was good. It looked like there was some passion, maybe it just helped being farther away, so you couldn't see them...

I can't wait for this. I think Narimiya will be amazing as Daichi. When I saw this was becoming a drama I read the manga, so cute.

I don't know if Hornet is better than Falcon... When Falcon was looking at Hornet's computer he noticed something suspicious. I have a feeling that the computer is what is special rather than the hacker himself. Just my theory. I am loving the scenes between J and the doctor. They're so cute. I wish...

I had the same problem, but once I watched the first episode I couldn't wait for 3 months to see it all, so a weekly wait it is.

Who's the guy in your banner? He looks familar but I don't watch many KDramas so I'm not sure.

The wig he was wearing in the host club was good. It also looks good when it's back in a ponytail.

That was a cute moment, wasn't it. The fanservice was good too. I'm probably the only one who's glad he cut his hair. I thought Kame looked really good in Gokusen The Movie with the shorter hair, I don't like the longer hair. Uchi Hiroki (Oda) looks really different when his hair is wet and messed u...

I lived in Japan, teaching English for a year, and one of my students said the reason she was learning English was so that she could marry a foreigner.

First JDrama: Gokusen. I was looking for the anime and came upon the Live Action, and the rest is history.

Only KDrama: Boys before Flowers. I think I liked it better than Hana Yori Dango (not a huge fan of MatsuJun).

Well, I've been here a while but only just started posting really. I'm currently watching Bloody Monday 2, and Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. But in the past I've watched many, many JDramas. I lived in Japan for a year, but loved the dramas before that. Some of my favourite Dramas are Bloody Monday,...

Just watched epi 4, I have to agree with AnonKuro.. I was so sad when Maya died. I loved the chemistry she had with Kano in that scene, I was almost expecting them to kiss. I also love how J seems to like the doctor. It's so cute!! We're learning how much Otoya liked Aoi. I kinda wish they'd been to...

I think that Aya is doing well flipping between regular Sunako and possessed/drugged Sunako. I just finished watching epi. 5 (valentines day episode) and there was some real tension between her and Kame. I think the best parts for me were the two parts where Kyohei "escapes" the house in d...

I agree, he's a great actor. If you want to see him in a completely different role check out metantei no okite <sp> I think the translation is The Conditions of Great Detectives. He's really funny and goofy in it.

enggrrl

With Bloody Monday 2 starting, I thought I'd bump this thread up.

I think he's one of the sexiest Japanese actors around, and talented too. The first thing I saw him in was Honey and Clover and I didn't like him, but the more I've seen him in the more I love him.

enggrrl

I watched it on dramacrazy. I'd rather have a download able because the quality is usually better, but it was pretty good, not the usually blocky pictures like streaming usually is.

enggrrl

I just watched Bloody Monday 2, epi 1 and I thought he looks more mature this time round. Maybe it's the haircut, but he looks his age rather than looking like a 15 yr old.
