Haruma Miura to star in "Bloody Monday"
Wed, August 20, 2008 (1:45am EDT)
Rising teen actor Haruma Miura will take on his first starring role in a television drama series. This fall, TBS is airing an action/suspense series called "Bloody Monday," loosely based on a manga by Ryo Ryumon.
Miura plays a genius hacker facing off against a terrorist organization. Michiko Kichise is the female lead as one of the terrorists. Takeru Sato and Hisashi Yoshizawa have also been cast in the series. The show will be getting tie-ins with tech companies Microsoft and Yahoo! Japan.
"Bloody Monday" has been lined up for the 7:56pm time slot on Saturday nights, starting on October 11.

Haruma's in it, so I'll be here/there/everywhere with bells and whistles! He's so darned mature for someone his age! He makes me want to write a screenplay just for him!

Miura Haruma is one of the guy's i'm very interested of. the first acting i saw of him was In akihabara @deep the movie. but i only noticed him in Koizora which i totaly loved.
also Takeru sato is in it he's my favourite actor good reasons for me to watch it.

Interesting. I wonder if they will include those graphic bloody monday scenes like in the manga. It would lead to interesting reactions

It's on my watch list because, hey, it's Haruma. The story however doesn't sound all that interesting which is disappointing but I'll give it a shot.
Also, first time hearing Sato Takeru is in it! I was all over him in ROOKIES. Great to see him again so soon after it. Hope he gets a big role.

I'm not a fan of anyone in the cast in particular, but the story (and title) seem interesting, so I'll definitely be checking it out.

Miura harumaaa!!!
This is my top waiting list! OMG!! Suspense + MIura Haruma!
Only a couple more days until it premieres! I'm so excited for this drama. It looks amazing. And the cast is solid. Did you guys see the five-minute preview on YouTube? That clown is creepy...but I bet that was Nari-kun. You can't mistake that smile.

I'm watching it right now and it looks really promising! The beginning was kind of strange, but I think this might be my favorite drama this season.

Yes, the first episode started at 19.00 instead of 20.00 and ends at 20.54.

I have just finished watching BM
It was very very good and I can't await episode 2
but I'm a bit angry because of my parents I missed around 20 minutes in the middle >_<
and I have a little bad feeling about Satou's character when I remember the preview
he was shown together with Maya and in a morning show with news where Haruma and he were to talk about BM Satou said something about "uragiri" (betray/traitor)
and I'm not sure if he said that he's not the one
ahh I hate something like that
I hope Satou's chara won't be the one but he seems to be an important person

Wow! This was seriously intelligent. The first episode actually exceeded the hype and what an outing it was for Haruma-kun. I'm so happy his first leading role wasn't like a soap opera of the day. I love this Jack Bauer/24 approach.
Some parts were predictable, but that's because the Japanese don't have the same sense of "spoilers" as those of us raised in Hollywoodism. Still, the episode moved at a very fast pace and virtually all of the major sponsors joined the party. So much so that I'm sure there will be many extras on the DVD.

I've heard that the first episode is two hours special, is that so? It would be great, but on the other hand, the subbing process would be twice longer as well, I guess. Hopefully, it's worth the wait
by the way, with Bloody Monday airing, has Crows Zero II filming ended already?

****, first episode kicked ass. Definately not your average jdrama. And did you guys notice the high production values? Thought i was watching a high bugdet movie, this was awesome.

^ lolz i think they saved money in Koizora to produce Bloody Monday

To anyone who downloaded the first episode from Veoh: is your playback working? I've got all of the codecs, but I only get sound when I try to play it.
Sigh...*headache* I hope someone uploads the RAW here soon.

I loved every second of it, and I'm sure I'll love it even more with the subs! Definitely some interesting plot twists even within the first 2 hours, and a handful of foreshadowing for the next episode or so (something is definitely up with Takeru's character).

awesome first episode.

Yay! It was great! Despite it being 1.5 hours long it wasn't getting draggy! I love TBS' production btw.
The falcon flying through the gates when Fujimaru is hacking a computer is pretty awesome. And Bloody Monday's parrot too.
Also I too think that Takeru's char is going to play an active role from the next episode on... Wonder what that is...

Was the Russian accurate and understandable? Or similar to how the Japanese can't quite grasp English? I wonder if it'd be called Lussian like Engrish.

*spazz* first episode was the smex. i didnt realize it was gunna be so long but i was no dissopointed from what i could understand from the raw. i was hooked all the way through.
ill admit at first when i found out Haruma was in a new drama i would watch it for sure. but then i found out his costar is Takeru and omg i think i may just die. the combination of hese two? my absolute two fav one JE boys. i mean its like the best thing that could happen casting these two hotties.
i noe im gunna be watching this drama raw all the way thru and then again with subs because its just that awesome. i can feel it. Takeru~<3 Haruma~<3

Russian was pretty accurate from, you know, the russians. Incredible quality, actually. But from, i guess, Kichise Michiko it was with a strong accent.

Oh, cool! I love to see how the Japanese represent other cultures and languages - definitely like looking through their eyes. Just goes to show that this drama has high production values.
