[Discussion] Bara no nai Hanaya: Katori Shingo/Takeuchi Yuko

yanie · Post by **yanie** » Mar 7th, '08, 01:42

A japanese fan at 2-channel claimed that she saw the filming of one of the scene for the LAST EPISODE, and this is what she said...

voth · Post by **voth** » Mar 7th, '08, 02:02

That would explain a few things (from previous posts). Let's hope that at least part of that is correct.

They said that "Takeuchi Yuko is going to or was filming at a Rose Garden in a small town", is a confirmed information. But whether or not with Katori, whether or not they kiss, are un-confirmed Nevertheless all the fans are already all hyped up about it.

As I mentioned I hope at least half of what was reported is right. As for...

Ep.7 OMG.

Great Drama. Can't wait for the next one.

Daish · Post by **Daish** » Mar 8th, '08, 06:21

Has takeuchi always been quite good at acting? (like here) or maybe "you" feel her role isn't THAT demanding... from memory, most of her past roles were cherry cheerfuls weren't they, but she's done fine in those roles.... usually being as pretty as her helps in cheerful roles

: ?

heck even with this role, she's somewhat been typed casted, not much variation. Oh well

And yes I'm loving this series, don't want guess too much at the plot as everyone seems to be significantlly ahead of me (only finished 7). In retrospect the twist at the end of 7 should have been somewhat predictable, but i'm afraid the series will take a wrong turn after this twist.

seirin · Post by **seirin** » Mar 8th, '08, 09:45

I don't know about Takeuchi acting cheerful in every drama/movie. I saw her in several of them and she wasn't that cheery. Like "Ima ai ni yukimasu", "Yomigaeri", "Tengoku no Honya" and "Pride". It's true she doesn't have a large variety of roles. I think her different one is probably her current movie Team Batista no Eikou maybe. It would be interesting if she could pull off a villain role with a sweet face ^^;

To voth:
Ha... rabid ne~ I guess so. There are many interesting Japanese blogs on the drama, indeed. It has such a big scale fanbase in Japan, I think. People who didn't like Katori Shingo and/or Takeuchi Yuko in the first place, even watch the drama and has changed their opinion about them. Those who didn't like Nojima Shinji's stories, somehow came to like "Bara no nai Hanaya" x)

A very good blog on "Bara", if you can read Japanese:
http://www.alived.com/blog/

It provides particular dialogues, kanojo's video letters' lines, all the mystery and riddles to be solved, for every episode. Complete informations on the drama. Bits and pieces of the drama too. Like the title of the books Master had been reading in the cafe. The piano piece title that Anzai played. Interesting fact that Katori Shingo and Nojima Shinji had work on a children illustrated storybook in mid-2007 before, Nojima Shinji wrote the story, Shingo drew the illustrations.

A site on Bara's outdoor filming locations:
http://www.loc-rose.com/

Thanks to this site, I was able to find the spot where Eiji and Mio stood in the end of episode 3, at Shibuya station

I was so happy when I found it, "Ahhh~ that's where Eiji and Mio stood!!", lol.

Not just that... there's a group of fanatic Shingo-Yuko shippers too, at 2-channel, and they insisted that there must be something between the two in real-life (based on what they said in mags, interactions in variety shows, etc etc).

So... yeah, rabid

Ah, one more thing... I went to FujiTV building, Odaiba yesterday and I found ROSE CAFE on the first floor. One whole cafe dedicated to the drama. They have framed exclusive pictures and posters on the wall, big roses decoration and an all-red atmosphere. Very interesting. Those who live in Tokyo, or gonna visit Tokyo, I recommend to visit this cafe

My friend took some pictures of it... let's see if I can put it up here.

Yanie,

Thanks for the great posts and uploads. I just saw this thread since I was looking for Bara-related stuff.

Takeuchi Yuko is one of my fav Japanese actress. So I am glad to see this drama especially during the winter months.

KissedInuyasha · Post by **KissedInuyasha** » Mar 9th, '08, 12:24

I'm just really excited about Tamayama being in episode 8, since he was the first Japanese actor I "crushed" on. But this is the first JDrama in a while that's made me want to look up spoilers (though I'm trying not to) The plot is so unpredictable, I love it. It has depth to it, I haven't seen one in a while that was like this. Though it really hasn't shocked me yet.

yanie · Post by **yanie** » Mar 9th, '08, 14:14

JUST FOR FUN^^

These are from unreliables sources and ungrounded spoilers from the "Bara no nai Hanaya Spoiler" thread at 2-channel. There are some people claiming that they are the drama staffs and know the story. Whether or not it's true... well, again this is just FOR FUN.

DO NOT read if you believe that they are really the staffs!

-Naoya and Kamiyama Shun, the surgeon, are brothers.
This I can believe is true. After watching raw of ep8, I heard Naoya mention a brother. Since his dad can't be the evil doctor and he's a doctor's son. It makes sense Shun is his brother.

-There will be a scene that shows Shun is good at sports.
I don't see the importance of this scene...but maybe that's how Shizuku's mom fell for him

-Shizuku dies at the end.
I can't believe that...

-Mio decided to resign from being a nurse, and disappear from Eiji's sight. With no hint, Eiji searches for her... and whether or not he can find her, we'll find out in the last episode.
Seems true from the previews at the end of ep8.

-Eiji was abused by his parents in childhood, he was forced to steal, etc... but he never murder anyone.
That seems to be a given

Response to Seirin & yanie's comments - If you don't want to know, move along.

Did anyone noticed that right at the end of Episode 9, the 2nd verse of the "Zutto Issho sa" song was played, for the first time?

Now that I pay attention to the lyrics... it has such a high possibility that it could be the clues to the ending of the drama...

2nd verse lyrics:

2nd verse lyrics:

傷付いた　心のかけらを
ひとつ残らずひろって
愛という　不思議なジグソー
つなぐ欠片(ピース)を探すよ

本当の強さは「ひとりじゃない」って言えること
風の中で寄り添う　花のように　秘めやかに

あなたとふたりで　生きて行けたら
何度でも生まれ変われる
たどリ着いた　僕らの場所で
ずっと　ずっと　一緒さ

I'm really not good in translating lyrics, this is just the rough translation...

Pieces of the hurt and broken heart
Pick it up without leaving even a piece of it
"LOVE" is a miracle jigsaw puzzle
Just search for the pieces that connects them together

The real strength is "not being alone"
In the wind breeze, we draw closer just like flowers in a hidden place

If it means I can spend the rest of my life with you
I'll change who I am
We have finally arrived in our place
Forever, forever... Together

やっぱり、幸せな結末か～　薔薇園のキスシーンも本当かも～　:P

Thanks for the translation. It seems everything connected to this series is a possible hint as to what could happen before the series ends.

I'm very curious to see if any of the 'spoilers' (you posted a few days ago) are going to actually happen.

Well, I guess they're still filming the final episode... The cast showed up LIVE a few seconds ago on the Ganbatta Taisho, and they're still filming.

It's a bit of a shame that they don't put much time into post production.

WOW!!! THEY ACTUALLY MADE A SET FOR THE SHOW... the flower shop and the neighborhood around it is an actual set; amazing (for a Japanese production)... and then they used 17 tons of water for the ending scene in the first episode...

I really hope that crows swoop down at the end of the next episode and pick out the Kamiyama character's eye balls.

I was talking with a Japanese friend about this series, and she said two things. One that like all Nojima's dramas it was くらああい (daaaark!). And also that it was one of the most absorbing dramas in recent memory. This episode lives up to both.

Some of Nojima's dramas (e.g. Subarashiki kana jinsei) have these wonderful uplifting monologues where people confess their love like they mean it, but

Is next week the last episode? I can't wait.

seirin wrote:those are some really spaced out conclusions. It sounds like a soap opera ^^;

Technically it is a soap opera (though only a set number of episodes, unlike the thousands of episodes most american soap operas have).

As for spaced out conclusions - it wouldn't be any fun to watch these shows if we didn't try to predict how they would end - even if they are a little crazy.

I would agree though, some of the 'conclusions' yanie posted were a tad out there even for this show.

Next we'll hear that the last episode shows Shizuku all grown up running the flower shop (yes, I know about the flower shop), where she is known to sell all kinds of flowers (particularly those dark red roses). Mio and Eiji are happily married with a child or two. Ono and Shijo are a couple. Blah, blah, blah.

Actually, that's not spaced out now ^^; That's just typical drama endings. I think I would be disappointed if they showed that ^^; I hope it's something surprising but not spaced out that makes you say "arienaitsu!"

Just wanna make sure... Ganbatta Taishow [17.3.08] torrents is NOT available??O_o

It's really too bad, the "Bara no nai Hanaya Research Special" was really interesting. And the Bara casts interaction was quite interesting too~
I love how Yuika says "hajimemashite" to TamaTetsu, and TamaTetsu said "Oh, right... though we're suppose to be lovers, this is our first meet,". Somehow I think they look great together. And Shingo kinda spilled out that there's gonna be a scene with them together in the last episode xD

And apparently there are some footages in the snowy mountain titleback that hasn't been shown yet! I was suprised to see:

Wanna watch that again.... Oh, and the "Bara no nai Hanaya" team won the GANBATTA AWARD too!

Finally found it on CB^^
Bara no nai Hanaya casts in Ganbatta Taishow!!

Kusanagi Tsuyoshi stuttered when he introduce Bara casts connected from another studio, "Bara no nai Hananaya no minna-san deesu!!" LOL! Shingo looked upset.

When Tsuyoshi didn't know what to say more, Shingo yelled at him, "Oy!! Kusanagi! Shabette(speak)!!".

Then, Tsuyoshi nervously called out Takeuchi Yuko, "Takeuchi-san, Takeuchi-san! How's the filming?". Takeuchi said, "Well... it's going smooth...".
Tsu asked again, "Kyou wa, Shingo to wa... nanka... umaku... satsuei shitemasu ka??"(Today, with Shingo... are you filming smoothly??)

Hahaha... Tsuyoshi is a very bad host

:

When Tsuyoshi asked Motokariya Yuika to give message to the Bara casts, she greeted TamaTetsu, "Ah, Tamayama-san, hajimemashite (nice to meet you)!". Apparently this is their first met xD
TamaTetsu greeted her back, "Ah, hajimemashite... yes, though we are suppose to be lovers, but we never meet before, ne..."
Shingo spilled out a bit, "Aahh... but that's on the last episode....aa~...". Haha, I think he just realized he talked too much xD

And eventually, the Bara no nai Hanaya casts and staff won the Ganbatta Award!! Shingo came to the studio just in time when the award winner was announced! haha~ omedetouuu!!^0^

Oh? I thought Mio didn't have a choice? In ep5 she was about to leave Anzai and look for other doctors/hospital, but her father was in a critical condition, and Anzai is a doctor who has the most experiences in handling Mio's father's surgery. If Anzai do the surgery, her father will have bigger possibility to stay alive, thus she stayed and had to do what Anzai said.

In such a critical, confusing, stress situation like that, as a daughter, I might do the same thing. Though I really hope I'll never come across things like this xD

Has Ejji ever really loved Ruri? Or was the reason, why he never told her that shun wanted to break up with her, is that he wanted Shun to trust/believe in people? But he never expected her to die in labor?

Wouldn't it have made more sense if Eiji just flat out told her that Shun wanted to break up with her? If Eiji wanted to be with Ruri?

It was in ep 10 that they were saying how Eiji hoped that when Shun came back and saw Ruri raising his child alone and waiting for him, that he'd lose the thorns in his heart.

Which is why I was thinking did he not tell Ruri about the truth because he wanted to save Shun?

I could be that too I suppose since Eiji is so selfless.

right at the end, Master puts on that hood thing (that covers his face).. what's that supposed to mean?

queequeg · Post by **queequeg** » Apr 2nd, '08, 21:57

Okay, just finished it. It was the best J-drama I've seen in a while.
I usually get annoyed with the wholesome too good to be true types, but I found Eiji wonderful. Probably because I loved the relationship between Eiji and Shizuka.

I was wondering about the hood, too. And who the kid was at the end, since they seemed to make a point of keeping his face out of camera. But I think it is the kid he saved back then, and the master puts on the mask because that is what he wore when he rescued the kid from the abusive parents. Why? Still no clue.

lailoken · Post by **lailoken** » Apr 3rd, '08, 00:58

The Hood is just to re-emphasize the point that the kid is the one they saved earlier, in case people didn't catch the Rose thing.

and the reason they didn't show the face of the child was because this is probably several years later, so they needed an older/taller kid that probably looked nothing like the original lol..

I have to say, I liked this series a lot at the start. The little girl who played Shizuku was excellent and I'm a big fan of Matsuda Shota, too. The promised plot-twists were there too, but I never found them to be that shocking.
But the last episode was a big disappointment.
