You might just be temporarily burnt out on them, or maybe you've just outgrown teen comedies/teen manga adaptations. In any event here's some different suggestions you might enjoy: Kimura Takuya Dramas Well, if you haven't seen Kimura Takuya in Long Vacation yet, that's an excellent one. Slow Dance...

any recommendations for me? haven't watched a "good" drama in a while. HYD got me into dramas, but I think I've grown out of the "over the top" genre. Last one I managed to get through was Hanazakai no Kimitachi e, but after that....tried watching Atashinchi no Danshi, but just ...

I can't really offer too much culturally... just don't blow your nose at the table during a meal and respect seniority. I used to date a model from Korea... She had only been in the US for schooling (about 3 years at the time)... and we never had any problems culturally. Just never let pride get in...

Is she there on exchange or is she actually from California? She moved here 5 years ago. She said she doesn't plan on moving back to Korea, but does not want to become a citizen here either...which is another topic. As far as "impressing" her, the only way you're going to do that is by be...

Hi, I was just wondering what I could do to try and impress this girl that I'm interested in. Things I could say or do, or understand about the culture, as I am not entirely familiar with all it's aspects. I don't want to learn stuff like how to say "Hey baby, wanna come over to my place."...

I think that while everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's my opinion that it should be expressed...respectfully. RANT ON comments like "it's japan. we can't expect it to make sense" should be expressed less...generally, and perhaps more carefully?. ultimately it's just a tv show and i...

I have other thoughts on the stylistic side of things which I will share later.

aatm

@ fishtail eh, maybe, although I do maintain that while I disliked HYD2 with a passion, the ending was a wonderful conclusion - not open, but a conclusion. and i think it may just be a yamapi drama thing about the open endedness because kurosagi and this are just kinda...well...and then what? sekach...

i bet joeboygo's not going to show up for a while, if at all. if he's as dissatisfied (to put it lightly) as most of us are...well, yeah. and sakurachan, i really like what you just said. i think your post was very insightful and opened up a different meaning of the events that took place. i like ma...

@ Lunargen yeah, can't wait for joeboygo to get here. that'll be fun. hehe. =) but yeah, i guess no one else saw that as significant... that it didn't say "finale"...but said "11" in the background like normal. I mean, obviously it was the finale for the season, but...i don't kno...

okay, so i just finished ep 11, and i haven't read what has been said in the past 10 pages that have gone up in the past 12 hours, but i have to say.... i hope there's more..although, i don't know how they're going to do it. the time slipping has been done, and that's kind of what made this special....

I'll join in on the Kame bashing. =) After watching Nobuta wo Produce and Tatta Hitotsu no Koi...I just find his acting a little bland. I found YamaPi much more enjoyable in NwP than Kame.

pretty sure that gust of wind was just symbolizing the yosei's presence in the building...even though he's outside on the balcony looking at ken in the next shot. of course, the rules of time and space don't apply to him. similarly, the very first shot of the series is a gust of wind blowing curtain...

Is it coincidence that the Opening Theme is the same as the song that Yamapi played in DragonZakura when he was in the band? it's somewhat similar, but it's not the same. for those interested, Dragon Zakura - Episode 1 - 20:28 vs. the opening credits (no, not Mongol 800 or Keisuke Kuwata) It's clos...

Finally! Yes, finally...things are starting to go a little better, and we're starting to see things happening.

Ooooohhhhhhhhhhh, okay. I got it. I totally didn't connect that picture with what Rei said in ep 5. good memory. and that makes a little more sense. I'm intrigued by my own idea now.

Bro, I'm glad you don't get hot under the collar. I'm not saying you're wrong, because things can end up just the way you called it. But honestly, it would suck big time for me if that happened.

@ joeboygo you bring up a good point that yes, it is a fairy tale...or a pseudo-fairy tale. i, however, am starting to see more Aesopica characteristics rather than fairy tale here. Before every time slip, the fairy tells Ken what he should try and do, ken time slips and during his time there, learn...

kinda going off of what 8thsin said, I found one that's a little suspicious.... if ken and rei didn't go say bye to rei's grandfather one last time, they would've just prepped for the soccer get together, thus, judging by the reaction of ken and rei when they got back, Tada probably wouldn't have be...

aatm

i agree with pwner4once. i'm sure that's the general consensus here. but, although ken is trying to make subtle but meaningful changes in rei's past life, it could be that she needs something more apparent, which is why i think that an actual confession from both is needed. they can hint at each oth...

@ lunargen perhaps, but if there is anything like that... it'll probably happen in the spin off. i saw the postings about the little spin off, but unless there are more posts about it elsewhere, a wedding is not really mentioned, unless you pm'd marblerain and they told you the answer. then i'll hav...

Well... I'm not so sure about the whole Mikio/Tsuru/Eri/or even Rei figuring out that Ken is timeslipping.

you could just rewatch the first few episodes to get you in that feel good mood again. =) or if you don't want to over do the ProDai, then maybe HYD, Gokusen, Nodame Cantabile, or NwP.

by the way, i don't think anyone replied to this but if you were Rei, and you know how you felt that day, and everything that happened, then when getting the picture developed, seeing Ken in the background there, wouldn't you think that meant something?
