I also hope that this will turn out to be an interesting drama too. Considering the last japanese drama that I watched was Guilty (also with Kanno Miho and Tamaki Hiroshi). LOL. I am only watching this Jdrama because I am like just pretending that these two are really the same characters from Guilt...

I watched this series because I saw them together in Higashino Keigo Mysteries. I saw this drama back in 2007 and didn't pay much attention. Didn't think much of the story. But it got me curious why they are pairing again in 2012? So I decided to go and search for it and finished the whole ten epis...

ILooking forward to the next season of this drama, absolutely loved every minute of it! There's gonna be another season? :unsure: But one thing is still bogging me: The scene in the begining was just a "fantsay flashback" of Mayuzumi, right? I mean, the picture was all blurred, she was lo...

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!

Ahahaha... the ending was so messed up. LOL.

New Drama again, this time as a lawyer http://www.tokyohive.com/2012/02/sakai-masato-aragaki-yui-to-star-as-lawyers-in-new-drama-legal-high/ Ooo... thanks for the heads up! I was wondering what J-drama she was doing next after her two recent movie specials. Kinda sucks she plays a serious-type lawy...

^ Whoa. Someone actually posted in here... that's like the 5th post in the last 2 years. :D I thought an Erika Toda fan had accidentally posted in the wrong thread. :lol Thanks for the Gakky update! I'm not familiar with the Ranma 1/2 anime, but I do indeed have something to look forward to now. :mr...

Hmmm... she did look familiar; I think she was also in Mop Girl. Reina Asami maybe?

Zenkai Girl Final Thoughts Even though I've watched a bazillion J-dramas, Zenkai Girl was actually my first truly on-going J-drama, and man... it felt weird watching a series over the span of a couple of months instead of marathoning it within a few days. LOL. It really is a different experience IMO...

Episode 9 We all have our dreams in life and in fact some keeps a list on things they want to achieve but due to some circumstances or fate we either change our plans or take a turn. This i think what Wakaba is experiencing. For her, the goal is to become a topnotch lawyer and marry an AAA guy, thin...

Episode 9 Episode 9. :faint: Emotional rollercoaster to the max. Episode 9 messed me up... I'm all emotionally confused now. :unsure: LOL. So, not only did Shota reject Wakaba, he also got himself deeper into sh*t by talking about Soyoko. I agree 100%... this really frustrated me. Lying to yourself ...

Shindo needs to come clean. We don't know what his true motives are. He doesn't love her. He started dating her to spite the boss. She is a smart but poor nobody from nowhere. So, why? Hmmm... I'm not sure if Shindo loves Wakaba, but I think his feelings of wanting to be with her are genuine. Actua...

Is is just me, or is Shindo hiding something? No clue what is could be, but that is my feeling. Shindo's role is hardly developed enough for him to be the one she ends up with. I have a feeling that he is going to make a lawyer move that Hinata's mom won't like... and therefore something that Wakab...

It was 5,000,000 yen which is a pretty massive amount... Kay... just checked and as of a minute ago that equals to exactly $65,078... and 50 cents. :blink Man... I think Wakaba only makes around 250,000 yen per paycheck too... and most of that went to bills, cuz she only had like 60,000 yen left to...

This episode made me realize that 'Pill Bug' knows that she likes him and that he is ignoring it on purpose. Yah, they should pretty much both know they like each other by now with all the hugging and crying in each others' arms that has been going on as of late. :whistling: LOL. If he was truly ig...

Wakaba's dad is indeed a reflection of Shota. No wonder she tries so hard to hate him, since Shota is a mirror of the father she hates to be with, not because she does not care or love his dad but because she wishes that her dad would at least help himself to not just be contented of what they have...

wakaba's dad is awesome Makes me wonder what Wakaba's mom was like... other than the fact that she must have been one beautiful woman. :wub: That's true, but Wakaba doesn't need someone to buy anything for her. She's ambitious enough where she can make her own fortune. Yup. Wakaba is awesome. :wub:...

It's about Wakaba actually really liking Shota, but having difficulties accepting it because there's another guy who would be a good match to her. So it doesn't matter what sort of guys they are, she's making a choice between love and convenience. I think this was true before Shindo proposed... but...

Personally, I would pick Shindo and I also prefer his looks too - tall and cute. LOL. Shindo definitely looks good in a suit, but I wonder how he would look in just a t-shirt and shorts. :whistling: LOL. With Shota... we know what he looks like when he is unglamorous... with messy hair, like he jus...

Oh, the latest episode! My heart was all over the place! I agree... watching episode 8 made me feel so conflicted; actually it sort of made me feel uncomfortable too. IMO this episode was just... too much. It felt like they went the extra mile to make Wakaba's life even more complicated than it alr...

The only thing that keeps shota and wakaba apart from each other is that they are not resolved with their emotions. We all know they like each other but they themselves are afraid that if they will follow their heart, they are afraid they would get hurt or rejected. I think Shota pretty much knows ...

Wow... for like 2 years people totally forgot about Gakky. :unsure: LOL. hello :D I loved yui aragaki because of my boss my hero she was so cute in there :wub: Yup. After watching My Boss My Hero... I declared undying eternal (meaning at least six months, lol) J-loyalty to Yui Aragaki. :wub: LOL. So...

el_canuck wrote:Yukizboy, you seem to have all of the answers, how old are you? 12?

Nope. But I am only watching Zenkai Girl... nothing else... so my focus and concentration is 100% on Zenkai Girl and no other J-drama. And I don't have any answers... only opinions.

What would Wakaba be like if she had grown up middle-class? Maybe better adjusted? Probably, but then she wouldn't be Wakaba anymore; not the Wakaba that both Shindo-sensei and Shota-san (and me, lol) find so fascinating anyway. I cannot see Shindo playing or getting down and dirty with kids, not a...

Do we really know Shindo-san is someone who can be trusted and depended on? We've only seen him through seven episodes. Fair enough, but IMO we have to extrapolate from what little we've seen. First, Hinata's mom hired him, she is a pretty good judge of character IMO and if she trusts Shindo-sensei...

I'm just thinking, if the roles were reversed... would anyone be saying anything? Would someone say "well, that single mother shouldn't be pursuing an ambitious career man, they'd make a terrible couple!"? Hmmm... I was thinking about this... not the "single mother" or "ter...

Oh I forgot to mention I really liked Wakaba's hairdo in this ep. :wub: and also the fact that she is wearing dresses now. :wub: LOL. Shindou wants money and a trophy wife, he has not shown one second of caring for anyone but Shindou. I disagree... Shindo-san wants someone he can trust and depend on...

Episode 7 OMG ... I love a man who's not afraid to do the "ugly cry." [see Oprah] Will capture my heart every time. :wub: For me it depends on the reason why said dude is doing the "ugly cry." :D Pill Bug's reason for that unmanly display of unmanly-ness (lol) was just insecure s...

If you think about it closely, i can even sense that despite the insecurities of shota's character, (reason why he is having second thoughts all the time), shota is the only person who brings out the strengths of wakaba and let her realize what really matters in this world. IMO it depends on what W...

Episode 7 So Bi-taro is staying in Japan, Ririka has popped off back to New York and Shoutaro is now having a mini crisis about whether he did the right thing. If I was Wakaba I'd just have left him and gone to my engagement party. Did she honestly forget about it? Or maybe she deliberately ignored...

Pill Bug will go running (sadly) to Wakaba asking for legal advice and help. Yah, but Wakaba and Shingo are now engaged; I bet Pill Bug won't even have the guts to talk to Wakaba for at least one and a half episodes. LOL. Either way I'd like to see Wakaba become a super lawyer! What was it again? O...

Episode 6 After Shouta said he lost his parents I can see why he wants to spend so much time with Bi-taro. I'm looking forward to seeing how Bi-taro feel about his mother. It's all very well Wakaba realising she likes Shouta but things are a lot more complex as Shouta is bringing up a child as well...

Anyway, episode 6 got me fuming at Shota well, isn't he just soooo quick to jump on everyone's cases, telling them to do this and that, while he can't even admit sitting next to Wakaba while she slept. In real life, if you went and told somebody how to raise their kids, I doubt you would get out wi...

Here's about Wakaba, I doubt she'd like to support anyone right now, even when her feelings kick in I still think(or rather hope) she'd want Shota to pursue his dream or plan for the future when the kid grows up. IMO that is why Shota is not really a bad choice either; I mean it is not like he is c...

This show is sooooooooooooooooooooo *takes breath* ooooooooooooooooooooo good! :lol Episode 6 was wonderfully touching and Gakky's fashion sense, make-up and hairstyle are improving in each episode. :wub: LOL. Realistically speaking, I think he will be better with the girl who has a crush on him. Th...
