I guess pretty boy ended up getting dumped by Itoh Misaki and went back to his village and now works at a weld shop or something to bad for him. Couldn't see him landing Itoh Misaki to begin with. So now he gets to go after Ayase. You know something I really hate that guy. LOL

As a huge Japanese Drama watcher I came across this variety TV show. I have to admit I am not as much of a fan of Japanese variety shows as much as I like J Dramas. Well, I decided to DL this (while waiting for the new dramas) and watch this London Hearts Idol Trap. I may not know what the heck they...

Well, the person he always goes and sees when he has a problem is Natsumi and she is in worse shape personally then Abe - via person relationships. If you think about it even though Natusmi can connect with others she really doesn't have anyone. Notice the long long scene once she hangs up her cell ...

First off I had a dream that I traveled to Japan and came across another foreigner like myself - I forget the rest of the dream, but it made me ponder something. If a foreigner and another foreigner in Japan come face to face on the side walk - is that an automatic hello? Or nice to meet you? Wouldn...

Who needs a pretty young girl to draw and audience. I would try to make a play for Natsumi, even though she is 38 and I am 24. Older Japanese woman are hot. Well, the ones in this drama anyway. Actually, all the girls in this drama are really attractive. As for the popularity of this series. This is...

For all of you people who are voting for Ueta Aya. She is 3 feet tall and probably weighs less then 60LBS. She is soooo small and I am sorry, but she looks like she is 14 or 15. She is cute like puppy, but not sexy. OK, Yukie is the the sexiest. However, she is also enchantingly beautiful. Itoh Misa...

Berserk is probably the best Manga ever written. Its really really good and very unique for what is out right now. 1)Berserk (is just greatness) 2)Gantz 3)One Piece 4)Bleach 5)Hunter X Hunter 6)Inuyasha Yep, thats right Inuyasha. One day - One Day - It has to happen - doesn't it - they will defeat N...

Thanks for the suggestions I have seen Joou no kyoushitsu (that teacher was still really messed up) Keizoku (The ending was kind of crappy) Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi Kaidan Hyaku Monogatari Seems interesting, but Jem Tracker is down or has disappeared. Did he move? Koukou kyoushi NO SEEDS at a...

I still don't think the acting is the "major" problem if the script and the writing is bad. You can't win an oscar for an acting performance working with a "White Chicks" kind of movie script - no matter how good of an actor you are. I guess the really big question is do the Japa...

Keeper of hells gate2

The dramas that are coming out this part of the season are better then when I first started this thread. Sapuri (Itoh Miaski should play serious roles more often, not great or good, but decent in this role (I will admit she is so nice to look at). A much better actress in this type of role. When she...

i dont think either kurosagi or gal circle is bad at all, they are both very entertaining for what they are. why dont you look for things you LIKE? this to me is like the "opera" question - someone asked me if i liked opera and i said no, but i didnt explain why it bored the crap out of m...

I am really starting to question alot of the more recent dramas that we have been seeing. I am seeing alot of IMHO crap. Sayukii, Kurosagi, Attention Please, Glory Days, Gal Circle, The female lawer show, are and where terrible. Terrible acting and what seems more troubling is the overall plot and s...

This is a great drama. One of the better ones that I have seen. Nice to see something good come along. I have been pretty disappointed with the recent dramas lately. Attention Please, Kurosagi, Gal Circle are/where terrible. You know its pretty sad when the JAV adult film stars in Glory Days have as...

Sora Aoi is the police woman :blink I feel kind of dirty now. I have to admit this kind of changes my view of this drama if thats fair or not. I don't think thats going to stop me or the other great amount of men from DL this drama. . . . . . Not that I have seen any of Sora Aoi AV films before........

Heres my list from the entire thread. I am sure that everthing stated here is 100% accurate and correct as it pertains to Japanese Culture and life :D 1) Hitting 30 years of age is a major deadline 2) Once you are married I guess your life is set 3) I really have a hard time determing a Japanese pe...

88) Nose bleeds evertime someone thinks of something perverted 89) The head tilt. When someone is confused about somthing they tilt their head and then a noise is made. 90) Bycicles are stupid looking. You would think that the Japanese who care so much about appearances would trip out their bycicles...

Here's one hypothesis... In America, the artist carries the show and his reputation, and the TV network and his agency pretty much stays out of the picture. I.e. Pay-TV networks like HBO, the free TV networks, and the basic cable networks usually do not receive criticism for their choice of program...

Hmm, interesting. Moderation in the media - wow. I guess this is something which is totally different from the US. Its surprising really how similar Japan and America really are. (No the umbrella doesn't have the same effect). However, the media isn't one of them. In the US the more controversial an...

76) In a japanese court room the victim faces the accuser. If you are a victim of a violent crime that must be tough. 77) When filming a drama in Japan - when ever they do a street scene (which is alot) you can always see people walking by, staring at the camera, or laughing and giggling. It must be...

Abe Hiroshi is the man! One of the better actors in J Dramas and not some popular singer who can't act. The guy is an actor. 65) Japanese women are getting more and more attractive with each new season. Haven't figured out why, but I am doing research watching a lot of JDrama's. 66) How many people ...

49) It appears that the majority of Japanese life happens in either a Hospital or a Class room. 50) Japanese actors are all singers and all singers are Japanese actors. Some are pretty bad actors also. 51) The goofy contests that have no relevance to anything. 52) Some of these Japanese boys act pre...

Another period drama or special for Nakama Yukie. Thats 3 in a row! More great amounts of clothing covering up Yukie. I am not a fan of period pieces out of Japan I think they are kind of dull, predictable and boring. I love thier modern setting stories and drama's alot better. Yukie needs to go bac...

This is one of the best shows of the season. Which isn't saying much with Kiken na AnekiI, Hana Yori Dango are some of the shows of the season. This was a pretty good show However, I really feel the ending was a cop out. They didn't take a risk and they should have. I don't want to give the ending a...

44) Apparently their is no good doctors in Japan. 45) A dizzy spell equals a date with the grim reaper 46) Any love relationship equals at least one trip to the hospital, its a forgone conclusion. 47) The Japanese over estimate their height. 48) If you are walking down a street in Japan you will see...

39) Construction Jobs in Japan must pay very well! Seeing how when you get into debt its a forgone conclusion your going into the construction business.

36) The Japanese get a kick out of driving on the wrong side of the road. Its a practice that needs to STOP, it can be very dangerous. Also, they put the stearing wheel on the wrong side of the car. 37) Japan must have been a place of total and utter chaos before cell phones. Did Japan even exist be...

33) Japanese english pronouciation or wording can be pretty bad. Watching the drama good luck. The co pilot was making an announcement to the passengers and said in english.

26 ) All love relationships in Japan will be resolved in a span of 11 (45 minute to an hours) episodes usually. 27 ) Their is always an problem causing friend, that likes to cause problems especially with relationships and is way to straight forward.

Kanno Miho's is a good actress, she just isn't IMO properly cast for this role. The supporting cast is very good. The "outsider guy" and the energetic friend are played really well. As for the overall drama, it is starting to shape up to be pretty interesting. The main issue in my opinion ...

Keeper of hells gate2

You have to see Sekai No Chuusin - It has a purity aspect to it that alot of Dramas lack. The girl main actress is very very good in this. Not just a pretty face, but a very very talented actress at such a young age.

About the uniform thing. I have been out of high school for a bit now, but I couldn't image going to school ever day looking like everybody else. Where is the individualism.

This is a pretty good drama. Although, I can kind of picture where its headed. The problem I have with this drama is the main character. She doesn't fit the role of a low self esteem, suicidal, negative person. I have a hard time buying into her character. I don't think its a lack of good acting, bu...

Question for Japanese residents - Is it true that if you are a foreigner some bars, clubs and restaurants will not allow you in because you are a foreigner? I thought I heard that once.
