Just as most people demand a quality story, they should also demand quality translations of those stories. It makes sense, right? :P That's why I refused to watch D3C3PTIONx's subs (I think they're pretty bad) for the TW Hana Kimi and prefer the far superior SUBlimes subs of it (but then, I myself really don't need English subs for TW shows...).

After all, a story is only as good as its translation if you don't know the original language. I'm more than happy to wait an extra week for the SARS translation.
I watched both softsubs. I think arashivox and Kai200X subs are pretty good. Correct grammer.. but I don't understand Jpn so i don't know how accurate they are (but both subs were very similar so i think they're accurate).
I prefer Kai200X cuz it's more accurate english for me ^__^ well just my opinion....

yay Happy 141 !!! :cheers:

haha your mom's like my mom lolz.. Only thing is she seldom cry but whenever I watch with her I go :sleeping:

Subs really make ALOT of difference. For one, Sano isn't as indifferent to Mizuki as he would like to show.
Especially when they were chatting by the field. Sano actually talked about his fears in front of someone he just met. That means something right? I always believe in fate and think that you rarely get to meet someone who you can really speak from the bottom of your heart so it's nice to think that Sano feels that kind of connection with Mizuki. Yataa!! :)

I know exactly what you mean, I think its nice too, maybe a little unbelieviable but plays on your romantic side so you cant help enjoying it and believing it could happen to you too. (If only it would happen with shun huh?)

Im a little surprised I was away from the computer for like 7 hours and this forum only grew one page! What happened??So far this forum has been growing like a house on fire!

haha yea but I'm not that greedy, Shun's way way way out of my league. At least let me meet someone that i can feel that doki doki feeling for gosh.

Ahaha wow I think I'm watching Hana kimi for the what.. um.. 7th time? lolz and everytime I watch i notice something new. and I just noticed the BG music when Sano and Mizuki kissed kinda remind me of animals on a savannah plain ahaha :scratch:
And i think up till now, the person who understands Sano most is Yuu's character. Sometimes your enemy can be your best friend eh?

I love how the writers seem to be spoofing The Exorcists and many other well known horror films in this scene it's just a crack-up. But then again Dorm 3 are the drama enthusiasts.

I might have to disagree about the statement about everyone being impatient due to semantics. There's actually a difference between impatience and eagerness.

* Eagerness implies looking forward to something, which has a positive connotation. Numerous people in this thread has this trait (not me though, I'm fairweather to the series and can wait without care). It's completely all right to display eagerness in this thread.

* Impatience implies an uncomfortable level of intolerance to waiting, which has a negative connotation. A select number of individuals has this trait, and it comes with the added burden of immaturity. While banning them is a bit extreme, the feeling against them is very understandable. People who have been showing impatience in this thread...well, they're basically pathetic. :lol

Like spam, it's best to ignore these impatient people. I'm pretty sure there's some circle in hell reserved for them. :P

Lol I like the way you broke that down for the rest of us! Clever use of semantics in order to define those of us who use D-addicts, I can assure you all that out the two categories I definitely belong in the former-lol honest!!! :whistling:

Just watched episode 2 with subs(gonna watch it again when Kai200x release his subs).
And it was amazing.
First of all, Shun kissed Maki AND Toma in the end. It was so cute how Toma became jealous because he didnt want Shun to kiss Maki : D!!
Also it was so funny how Toma always became confused whenever he saw or touched Maki hahah.
The doctor supported Maki in the end and thats a good thang.
I really thought Toma gonna kiss Maki in the end but no, seems both will kiss in episode 3.
Also it seems Maki's brother will try to get Maki back in the next episode.
The most thing what is bothering me is: why the heck is Maki in episode 3 dressed like a girl and it seems Shun will be suspicious about Maki. In the end of the preview he says "Onna?" what means "Woman". Either he finds out or he will be suspicious about her.
And that is really bothering me.
This is quiet too early.. everything is going so fast.
I really hope that he ONLY will be suspicious about Maki.
Somehow I dont want him to know.. not yet.

haha ok I haven't watched Beetlejuice so thanks for the explanation. Tt's a pretty good picture of Oscar :w00t: That IS the suit now that you've provided the pictures. :)

Daito Shunsuke... Actually it's his 2nd reunion with Maki. He was in Nobuta and also in Teppan Shoujo as a guest star in episode 4. But in both series he hadn't actually had direct contact with Maki. He's cute tho. I hope both of them get to really act together... if you know what I mean.

LoL I thought what fans are waiting for, becuz many complaint that Sano doesn't know Mizuki's identity yet!! argh, this way or other I dun't care becuz the drama doesn't follow the manga anyways...
What bothers me is that Sano
told Mizuki to disappear in the preview... why ? .. it's so mean... argh, she left everything to come back for you!! :cussing:

Nomanymore, thank you so much for putting this on Veoh. I tried and tried to download the torrent, but it was so slow, I just couldn't wait for 19 days for the whole thing to end up on my computer! So, I really, really appreciate what you did.

This episode sort of surprised me and I enjoyed it, though I gather that the plot line isn't following the manga.
I was surpried that it included some story about Sano not running any more due to an injury incurred by "saving" Mizuki from hooligans in America (and, yes, just how many times have we seen American hooligans?).

I wonder if the writers did this to give the story some "depth," so Mizuki isn't just a crazed girl with a massive crush. In other words, the writers wanted to show that she had a good and serious reason for flying off to Japan--to save Sano's career. I guess maybe they didn't have faith in the original premise of the story. And it makes the whole thing a bit more HYD-like--the love of a good woman saves a moody young man . . .

Some notes.

I loved how Mizuki looked in her red dress. A combination of styling, very subtle makeup and acting actually made her look passably like a boy in a girl's dress. Mizuki is so cute, this scene could have been really hard to pull off.

I love the role of the dog in the show. He keeps coming to everyone's rescue at very important moments. So cute!

I liked that the evil doctor turned out to be so human in the end. This is something that I think J-doramas do well--characters will suddenly turn into something you don't expect when you least expect it. But it doesn't feel forced or ridiculous. His character switch felt very believable to me, and I love how he curtsied to Mizuki out in the audience.

And the next episode looks quite exciting--Sano finally knows the truth for sure.

After watching the eps with subtitle, I really want to see how the script writer looks like, becuz he must be a genius.. At 1st I didn't understand much why all those changes, jsut after the part of the discussion between Mizuki & Umeda, everything is like gathering & coherent. The story becomes really touching.. it's not simply a cheesy, dreamy story where fangirl goes after an idol that she doesn't even know. To be honest I've had doubts before about all the change & twist, but at this moment I dun't have any anymore becuz now I see where the script writer wants to lead to..
I really hope every fan will feel the same way as me....

This episode sort of surprised me and I enjoyed it, though I gather that the plot line isn't following the manga.
I was surpried that it included some story about Sano not running any more due to an injury incurred by "saving" Mizuki from hooligans in America (and, yes, just how many times have we seen American hooligans?).

I wonder if the writers did this to give the story some "depth," so Mizuki isn't just a crazed girl with a massive crush. In other words, the writers wanted to show that she had a good and serious reason for flying off to Japan--to save Sano's career. I guess maybe they didn't have faith in the original premise of the story. And it makes the whole thing a bit more HYD-like--the love of a good woman saves a moody young man . . .

Some notes.

I loved how Mizuki looked in her red dress. A combination of styling, very subtle makeup and acting actually made her look passably like a boy in a girl's dress. Mizuki is so cute, this scene could have been really hard to pull off.

I love the role of the dog in the show. He keeps coming to everyone's rescue at very important moments. So cute!

I liked that the evil doctor turned out to be so human in the end. This is something that I think J-doramas do well--characters will suddenly turn into something you don't expect when you least expect it. But it doesn't feel forced or ridiculous. His character switch felt very believable to me, and I love how he curtsied to Mizuki out in the audience.

And the next episode looks quite exciting--Sano finally knows the truth for sure.
After watching the eps with subtitle, I really want to see how the script writer looks like, becuz he must be a genius.. At 1st I didn't understand much why all those changes, jsut after the part of the discussion between Mizuki & Umeda, everything is like gathering & coherent. The story becomes really touching.. it's not simply a cheesy, dreamy story where fangirl goes after an idol that she doesn't even know. To be honest I've had doubts before about all the change & twist, but at this moment I dun't have any anymore becuz now I see where the script writer wants to lead to..
I really hope every fan will feel the same way as me....
nomanymore~

ok yea I get what you mean. I've seen him acting in comedies as well, he is good with comedies but hmm ok nvm I've fallen into the trap of comparing with the manga again. sheesh... kkk *tries to get my mind back on track to watch this as an individual drama* I'll just read the manga for my ideal Shizuki. It's just... is it that hard to find someone who remotely resembles Maki?

YESS. I just watched the second episode with subs. Lmaoo. I'm seriously in love with Toma :D.
But the subber also translated the episode - Sano doesn't seem to like Mizuki very much... urgg. This is getting too weird. Oh well. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE THIRD EPISODE THEN BWHAHAH.
I love Clubbox. It's the fastest thing everrrrr :lol.

I'm not sure about everybody else but I agree with you on that <b>nomanymore</b>. When I told my friends about this drama I gave the basic plot line of the manga, where she moves all the way from America so that she could attend an all boys school to be near her idol and they kind of rolled their eyes. They still watched it and love it but they have officially dubbed Mizuki as a stalker, albeit a very cute one >.<
They haven't seen the second episode yet but I know that they are definitely going to love it for the simple reason that, as you said, it makes what she does touching rather than cheesy and dreamy. What she did was a combination of admiration and also guilt (which as we all know can be a very powerful motivator) and I don't know about anybody else but that makes it all that more realistic (if only just a little) to me.

BTW, I was wondering if anyone could clarify what the exact rating of Episode 2 was. On the wiki page of drama page itself it says 16.8% but then on the list of Japanese dramas this season it says 16.4%. I was just wondering which one is the official one.

Lol I've never thought of Mizuki as a stalker. But now that you've said it, I guess I have to admit her actions does resemble a stalker. Hoho.But now the drama makes her a credible good friend who's in Japan to repay a debt. Btw, if I'm not wrong, Umeda allowed Mizuki to stay because she's here to help Sano overcome his fears right? Doesn't that mean that if Sano takes up high jump again, Mizuki will have to leave? Hmm.. then what about the challenge Shizuka issued Sano? Going by the preview, he's not close to Mizuki enough to accept that challenge. So does that mean he won't high-jump but Mizuki won't be going back to America too? Hmm... I wonder how the scriptwriter will turn that around. Maybe there won't even be a challenge? Or maybe Shizuka keeps pestering Sano too and that's why he told Mizuki that she's a nuisance? Oh man so many unanswered questions until ep3. 5 more days to go!

Yea I noticed the discrepancy in ratings too. Maybe 16.8% is the regional rating and the national rating is 16.4%?

And it was amazing.
First of all, Shun kissed Maki AND Toma in the end. It was so cute how Toma became jealous because he didnt want Shun to kiss Maki : D!!
Also it was so funny how Toma always became confused whenever he saw or touched Maki hahah.
The doctor supported Maki in the end and thats a good thang.
I really thought Toma gonna kiss Maki in the end but no, seems both will kiss in episode 3.
Also it seems Maki's brother will try to get Maki back in the next episode.
The most thing what is bothering me is: why the heck is Maki in episode 3 dressed like a girl and it seems Shun will be suspicious about Maki. In the end of the preview he says "Onna?" what means "Woman". Either he finds out or he will be suspicious about her.
And that is really bothering me.
This is quiet too early.. everything is going so fast.
I really hope that he ONLY will be suspicious about Maki.
Somehow I dont want him to know.. not yet.
where did you get the subs????

Seconds that.

And yeah, maybe you're right about that <b>ferine</b>, one being the regional and the other the national one. I'm just hoping that the one that counts most is the higher one :D

ROFL!!! I love Umeda!
Just saw the 2nd episode subbed and...
I love the part where the photographer lady told him that they once slept in the same bed, and Umeda just kinda laughed awkwardly and shut the door!

Also, :blink @ Hibari winning for six years in a row. Poor Nakatsu though. Taiki took away his "indirect kiss with Mizuki" cup! :lol
