[Discussion] Best dramas of the decade (2010-2020)!
While looking for newer dramas to binge, I've found the Recommended dramas thread to be extremely helpful. Figured I can make a thread that's more time-specific for those of us (like me) looking for more recommendations within this decade. The usual way of measuring a decade would have been 2010-201...

Re: RECOMMENDED/FAVORITE JDRAMAS (ask for suggestions here)
You certainly have been missing out on a lot of good dramas. Japanese drama hasn't gone down hill, you just been away for too long and probably have a nostalgic feeling towards the drama of that time. I do share the sentiment towards Kdrama. Can't really stand them. I'll leave you a list of good dr...

Re: RECOMMENDED/FAVORITE JDRAMAS (ask for suggestions here)
Hi guys! I followed the Jdrama scene fairly closely between 2008-2012; don't think I really missed out on any really awesome series around then, but haven't paid attention to much since then. The only drama I love recently (2016 lol) was Kazoku no katachi. I like slice of life, light romance (like N...

Re: Top 5 most underrated jdramas
Came back to add Kazoku no katachi (2016). I wasn't familiar with the script writer and watched it for Juri, but in the end I loved everything about the drama. It really resonates with my generation, the Millenials, who are ruining everything in the world - retail, earth population, etc :D It's (mos...

I watched the first episode of this drama but I'm unsure if I should continue. I guess the constant self-pitying of the main character kind of threw me off. Does the story get more interesting later on? I didn't like the first ep as much, but ep 2-ep4 were the best for me. Ep 5 was really good, exc...

Soredemo Ikite Yuku is sooo underrated by it's rating! Wish it can be like Mother in 2010, taken the season by storm, whilst it was never expected to do so. Both dramas have the same writer and solid performance. Maybe even better because SIY tells the story by its body language too. I actually agr...

About Hiroki I didn't think he was serious about killing Fumiya *though IF they meet, there's no telling what a victim's brother might do* but at least, at that moment, I was thoroughly convinced - through the casual tone of Hiroki - that he was just trying to stir things up so that Futaba's dad com...

I love Eita and Mitsushima Hikari's acting too. :-) I've been well too familiar with Eita's works, but he always amazes me in a subtle way. Hikari's acting is also very expressive, yet she doesn't overact at all, though her character is full of tragedies. The one thing I absolutely love about the dr...

My list of 5 underrated dramas (among international communities, mostly, because I wouldn't know how popular they were at the time of airing in Japan :lol ) 1. Ai kurushii - it's not an excellent drama per se, but at least it's a watchable family drama that has some touching moments. I put it as #1 ...

@toranosuke: It depends on how you see it. For me, it's hard to imagine how a young actress (anywhere from 7-15 years old) can portray Gou, an extraordinary girl, for one episode, let alone 10 eps. You just have to keep in mind the character's real age as you watch and forget the fact that Juri is, ...

[spoiler]I love ep 8 like most people on here, and absolutely adore Yutaka x Aya :wub: At times that's the only thing that keeps me watching - their amazing, amazing chemistry and individual acting. Before watching this, I heard various opinions regarding Aya's acting, but she totally convinced me ...

Actresses - Ueno Juri: the only actress/actor that has convinced me in every single role she's played in. She almost never repeats herself, and even when her role is boring or the plot is weak (like a certain drama that's playing right now, ahem) it's still interesting to see how she manages to shi...

I would probably say Innocent Love is the worst in terms of quality that I've seen (but again, I haven't seen that many, around 20, mostly newer ones (from 2004 onwards). I managed to finish it though, and didn't necessarily dislike it, I just thought it was bad :unsure: . In terms of acting, defini...

@Trygelan: for the serious one, I recommend Byakuyakou . Though not the first one on my favorite list (it's the third one :mrgreen: ), in my opinion it was the most beautifully and skillfully done jdrama I've ever seen. If you like the casting from Byakuyakou, then you should watch Sekai no chuushin...

For me 1. Nodame Cantabile - it will remain my most favorite jdrama of all time because it was the first one that I felt really passionate about. After watching it I couldn't watch anything else for 3 months. Everything from the plot to the casting was absolutely superb, and it's not just funny, it'...

auroragb : I do agree that out of all 11 episodes, ep 1 was the best. Ep 11 was good too, from 2-5 it's just sort of like ... eh, doesn't stand out, I think it gets better with ep 6 though. And it would have been better if they made it a little shorter. I like Ayase Haruka, and I think she played h...

I officially am in love with Ayase Haruka since Byakuyakou (girl crush :roll ) This series is awesome. I cannot stress enough how awesome it is. Not a series to help you relieve stress, but wonderful in terms of the plot, acting (Yamada Takayuki is great), filming, the colors, the details, the meani...
