[Discussion] Hotaru no Hikari (All Seasons)
hhahahah well I;m sure you are Kawaii too Rairai
I like the moral @ the end... t's Ok to be Himono onna if the guy really likes u heheh:P
Ayase is totally cute in this! I used to think she's pretty but then all her previous dramas were more serious .. and she was always a rather quiet "lady" in all of them... (ok the one with .. yamada i forgot the drama name was a dark side of her)
I didn't know she could pull a comedy so i looked passed this drama last year but I saw recommendations and tried to give it a shot
I'm glad I did~
I usually watch dramas after they are all aired b/c I don't like waiting. I'm watching the summer /fall dramas now... finished Life,Hana Kim, Galileo a while ago...
well Life and Galileo aren't really same genre but
the after-watching feeling for Hotaru no Hikari is def better than the much hyped Hana Kimi ...
The ratings should have been better for Hotaru!!
anyhow
I hope there is a 2nd season or like a SP !

by the way! i love their butt slap "fart" thing going on..hahaha..
the ending was good =D i was almost satisfied - almost because there wasn't even a hug at least. it could've completed the picture. nonetheless, it was a good series! it could've been better if instead of compressing all the significant events at the last 2 episodes, they should've spread it out for at least 3-4 episodes in place of the kinda stagnant middle part. however, i liked how each of the characters developed =D im so happy with the ending. =D

i loved this show!!! i just saw it on someone else's siggy and thought it would be funny to see it... i ended up in some parts. lolz.. but that's just me... to shallow to drama's or maybe coz it just hit a soft spot in some scenes?
the humor was just good between the two of the lead characters. FUJIKI NAOHITO rocks!!!! and he is an Ikemen as Hotaru has mentioned, even for an older guy. i think for most of romantic scenes where put on a lighter mode, or lets say the love scenes where entirely cut because that's not what the show is all about. it was about being in love and the nativity of it all. over all it was a good watch until the very end. the only thing left to be said is...
we need an SP SP SP SP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really didn't like the scenes with Teshima. He is so wooden and blank. I don't know if it was the actor or the direction. Somehow I can't believe him to be the creative designer sort. The awkwardness between Teshima and Amemiya was pretty realistic, and its what happens when people don't really click even though they want to. and I agree with srs.cassiopeia - its a lack of personality. For a crush, he is totally unexciting. He had no "sei" or any kind of charm/charisma that would make me believe a himono-onna like Amemiya would justify effort/exertion to have a crush on. If he was more believably crushable - i may have rooted for them to be together, AND THEN to build the relationship between Buchou and Amemiyah in a Season 2!!
(Hope I don't offend any of his fans. it might just be the director or editing. )
That's the only thing that bugs me though. This is one of my favourite dramas and i re-watch episodes at random when I'm feeling bored (skip Teshima scenes). I love the scenes with Amemiya and Takano-buchou - the situations and dialogue are really funny and it remains fresh and entertaining even with repeated watching. Haha!
I wish there was an SP too. But the drama did end nicely and cleanly... i'm happy!

I don't like Teshima Makoto, his character kinda disturbing.I love her manager better...
I can relate myself a lot to amemiya..Home is my favorite place.. After working I always rushing to go home and It's been a long time I didn't go out for a date..
this drama is good..if they rid off teshima it would be better..

I think that the ending is rightly placed and perfect without all the mushy love demonstration. They are sooo cute! Buchou!
Amemiya and her "crush" are so boring together. I think this is what happens when you "love" a person from afar, you tend to create these <i>dis</i>illusion. and when you finally get together, you realize that you don't have anything in common because you "fell in love" with an image you created in your head.
I hope there's a special too, but I hope that it won't consist of too much flashbacks hehe

yeah i think Teshima was needed for the plot to progress but i wish they made his character more interesting. when he first appeared there was potential for a interesting love interest but as the story went on he just appeared bland in my opinion.
i loved this series so much, one of my favorites hand down. i'm really hoping there's a special in the works. i loved watching boushou and amemiyah's dynamic relationship develop throughout the series, their personalities are so different yet they fit each other perfectly.

i love boushou too! and his quirky efforts on helping amemiyah...
although i would have to honestly admit that Teshima's acting was very stale. he could have a better job with his acting... but aside that. his awkwardness in acting (sorry guys that's how i felt on his acting) got away with the whole thing.
here's an idea for an SP - buchou's father comes back suddenly from his travels... looking at the rental contract between amemiya and takano senior, he would be a really wacky and interesting character. like wayyy different from takano buchou. kekeke.
there's scope for so many funny scenes eg threatening to marry amemiya so that she'll become buchou's stepmother - i can just imagine his fright just at the thought of having a himono-onna as a stepmother! haha
anyway i just wish there'll be an SP.... i want more ahomiya! (and of course fujiki naohito as takano-buchou.. yeaaaaah)

Oooh an SP would be a great gift. Want more of Buchooo and Amemiya awkward scenes they're so cute together. Yah I also hated whenever Teshima comes to the picture and like dude have more expressions now. You're so stiff. Glad Amemiya ended up with the manager especially since its Fujiki Naohito playing the part. I love him in almost every drama he ever does. Yup yup one of those Ikemen older man.

While reading every ones post, I'm just going omg cause i'm still watching it *at this very moment(neglecting homework isn't right but oh well). Ugh none the less, its so good that i've been completely absorbed.
I read bits of the manga and this series seemed interesting so I gave it a try but man, Ayase Haruka is so good at how diverse she is. Compared to all of her others roles like in byakuyakou and Tatta hitotsu no koi...she alone just completely blew me away with her role as Hotaru DX...Nonetheless this series is for sure one of my top favs =]

Waht's the meaning behind the title hotaru no hikari?
Yaa totemokakkoii!!! Really love the drama..
I take back what I said in the last sentence. I am actually wishing for more of Hotaru no Hikari....hmmm
Watching other dramas just doesn't cut it.
I don't has this been discussed before but what is the meaning in the title
"Hotaru no Hikari"?
and what's the meaning behind all the fireflies, captured in the hand, long time ago - and the light is almost fading...etc
Anyone discussed this before?

Re: Waht's the meaning behind the title hotaru no hikari?
Hotaru no Hikari= Firefly's Light. Also double meaning because the main character's name- Hotaru.ika-chan wrote:Yaa totemokakkoii!!! Really love the drama..

Hotaru no hikari meaning
Yea, thanks for that
But that's the literal meaning.
Firefly's light
Hotaru's light
But how does it relate to the drama and the story?
Why was this title chosen?
I know that there is a song, titled "hotaru no hikari" which is sang during graduations. Uses the tune from Auld Lang Syne. I wonder if there's any meaning to the story about the graduation of both himono-onna and not-a-good-husband-buchou.

Re: Finally a climax from the manga series!!
I totally loOOOOve this drama. Kawaii! I just finished watching this today. (i'm totally outdated). I am happy with the ending, but I am honestly hoping to see more of Hotaru and Bucchou.koitoame wrote:
I love the sparks between Hotaru and Buccho, though there is no romance whatsoever between them during the episodes, I really kept hoping while I was watching it that she end up with Buccho instead of Teshima. Kato's such a dull character. I'm not sure if the actor's supposed to portray it like that, but I find him really stiff and he's the only thing that annoyed me in this drama.
Nao and Haruka are great in this drama. They are so fun and very striking to watch when they spat words with each other. I especially love it when Bucchou makes his serious (and sarcastic) comments to Ahomiya. i just kept laughing, and I love Haruka's acting. I watched her in Cyborg She before and I found her stiff (she's a cyborg, of course) there, and I saw her in Sekai no Chuusin, but Hotaru no Hikari is the best. And i watched Nao in ProDai before but i didn't find him cute there as I found him cute here.
I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE MORE OF THIS STORY. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN SEE THE MANGA OF THIS? I TRIED LOOKING BUT I ONLY FOUND ABOUT 4 VOLUMES AND I'M NOT SURE IF THAT'S ALL OF IT.

Looks like it. Follow that group/page for updates.
I saw this drama 2 years ago. I remember I marathoned it in 2 days...well it was a complete breath of fresh air, light-hearted and in some way different from the other dramas.
Now I'm finally reading the manga and, as expected, I found it clever. The classic story you can't stop, once you start it.
The mangaka guides us through the story developments of Hotaru and Buchou gradually, slowly, but at the same time in a way that definitely doesn't get you tired. Instead, she gives you the opportunity to see them "grow", in a coherent way that makes sense (countless the times, watching a drama or reading a manga, I found myself muttering "how could it have gone this way..."
And the drama, I must say, follows perfectly the example of the original version

hehe. I am the opposite of you: I paused 2 weeks until continuing with episode 9, having only 1 more left.Yukinon wrote:I saw this drama 2 years ago. I remember I marathoned it in 2 days...
since I love this show so much I want it to last as long as possible
yes, Hotaru reminds me a lot of myself. only that she is so funny to look at.
Having paused for 2 weeks I noticed the difference to other funny shows: this is REALLY fun to watch,
great cast, buchou and himono onna.
Well, reading/watching something in a short time allows to remember all the details from an episode to another, even the little ones. Time dims memories. And the story seems to me more beautiful, too.chan-san wrote:hehe. I am the opposite of you: I paused 2 weeks until continuing with episode 9, having only 1 more left.

Besides I've been watching dramas for a long time and I instantly recognize if the thing in front of me is a gem or the usual little story.
would you like to recommend some gems over there:Yukinon wrote: Besides I've been watching dramas for a long time and I instantly recognize if the thing in front of me is a gem or the usual little story.

Yeah, of course there is nothing wrong, but the imagination is some kind of interesting.Lady Zhuge wrote: There's nothing wrong with that! I hope Teshima isn't in the sequel - he was about as interesting as watching grass grow.
Partially ther way of life is very unequal in Hotari no Hikari, but i guess this might be their formula for success Well, we have to wait and maybe the development of the wedding part is very different... I am looking forward to see (hopefully) another worth watching drama!

I'm so looking forward to this one that I decided to watch season 1 again in preperation. So Season 2 is supposed to be about Hotarus path towards marriage? Please tell me it's the Marriage with Buchou, otherwise that wouldn't make any sense....are they still living in that house together? I really can't wait to see it. The chemistry between Haruka Ayase and Naohito Fujiki is just amazing and I look forward to romantic development between their characters! And honestly Hotaru is one of my favourite drama characters of all time. I love her laziness and her enjoyment of life at the porch with her beloved can-biiru!

It's rather common in Japan, though.Sorvaseven wrote:a possible marriage between hotaru and her boss...? in real life their age gap is 12 years !
Takeuchi Yuko - Shido Nakamura - 8 years
Sakai Ayana - Tetsu - 16 years
Erika Sawajiri - Takashiro Tsuyoshi - 22 years
Makes you pity those poor ane-san.
Anyway, I wonder how much the mood of the series will change with Hotaru going steady. I hope the dynamic between them remains essentially the same.

Yeah, I don't see why Teshima should be there, too. He was awful in the first season, too, IMHO.Issy wrote:they do make one hell of funny/interesting couple to be honest. they have opposite view about almost everything and not much in common. love to see how this pair going to work.
and i don\t see the importance of Teshima presence in the sequel.
I find the pairing in Hotaru no Hikari and Kekkon Dekinai Otoko to be quite similar, TBH. It's like simultaneously accepting the other person's faults and yet also changing them for the better at the same time.
Interesting...I wouldn't have thought that but yeah, it is similar in that aspect. LOL In Kekkon Dekinai Otoko they brought out more of the frustration shared by his female counter parts. Might have to re-watch both these series as a refresher. Really liked Abe in that and his unbending stance was hilarious...he fit that character.kuroihikari wrote:Issy wrote:I find the pairing in Hotaru no Hikari andto be quite similar, TBH.

Ayase did Amemiya's character well, the opening scene where the co-workers in the bar are all talking about that type was

Yesterday was the press conference for NTV’s upcoming summer dorama “Hotaru no Hikari 2? starring Ayase Haruka (25) and many reporters were curious to get a response from Ayase about her alleged relationship with actor Osawa Takao (42). Unsurprisingly she clearly denied the rumors. “There is nothing like that going on (between us),” she said.

The skirt of the dress is also made out of jerseys. Haha.
But that picture makes me not so happy. Cause it seems that both Mukai Osamus character and Bucho are possible marriage candidates. I don't want them (Hotaru and Bucho) to get together in the last episode only. Meh....
Also seems like some of the cast was replaced. Unfortunately Kuninaka Ryoko is not involved anymore.

yes. i was going to write the samething. i hope that is not a copy of season 1 just with different love interest. we have already dealt with that in S1. i like to see how their relationship developes through out the series. but i guess they need some storylines to keeps us guessing.MaiKitty wrote:The skirt of the dress is also made out of jerseys.

I don't want guessing, I want Hotaru and Bucho tackle a relationship. Did we really wait for 3 years to see Hotaru fall in love with some other guy again? I'm sure I didn't and I will be disappointed if they will only get together in the end. (I'm not doubting it'll end with Hotaru and Bucho as a couple, the question is only, when will it happen?)Issy wrote:yes. i was going to write the samething. i hope that is not a copy of season 1 just with different love interest. we have already dealt with that in S1. i like to see how their relationship developes through out the series. but i guess they need some storylines to keeps us guessing.MaiKitty wrote:The skirt of the dress is also made out of jerseys.

Me too. Worst case scenario is: Hotaru's going to marry the other guy and only realizes on her wedding day that buchou is the one for her. I'd like to see H&B develop their relationship and hopefully they'll get into loads of fights. I love the first season cause of the comedy not for the love story.
Let's hope they won't screw this up like they did with sunao and tsuki no koibito.
