I'm watching both. Seigi no Mikata is a way better (for me at least) than Yasuko to Kenji. The second one seems to piss me off sometimes, and the humor is not that great. It's enjoyable, but, not as much as I was expecting.yanie wrote:Btw, how is "Seigi no Mikata" compared to "Yasuko to Kenji"? I wonder which one is better? Or they're both the same good comedy?
[Discussion] Seigi no Mikata (2008)
Sorry, but I'm enjoying Yasuko to Kenji a lot more than Seigi no Mikata. I prefer Youko over Yasuko, and I prefer Kenji over Makiko. Plus I enjoy the bro/sis relatinship a lot more which is one of the reasons. Also the way Youko obeys every single of her sisters' command really starts to p*** me off sometimes. Yasuko and Kenji's relationship is way more enjoyable and funnier to watch.
YtK is hilarious Seigi no Mikata too, but enjoying YtK a lot more than this.

I prefer seigi no mikata over yasuko to kenji.. they're both funny but the main character yasuko annoys me. she acts like a typical shojo manga character swooning over the hot guy. i like seigi no mikata more cos i can relate to it more. also, shida mirai is a good actor! hongo kanata is in it too which makes it more enjoyable for me since im a bif fan of him.. o.o everyones entitled to their own opinionyanie wrote:Btw, how is "Seigi no Mikata" compared to "Yasuko to Kenji"?

Quite annoying ain't she? She acted the same exact way in another series all fangirl-ish ugh. Shida Mirai's character in Seigi no Mikata on the other hand is quite likeable.hollisterluv wrote:I prefer seigi no mikata over yasuko to kenji.. they're both funny but the main character yasuko annoys me. she acts like a typical shojo manga character swooning over the hot guy. i like seigi no mikata more cos i can relate to it more. also, shida mirai is a good actor! hongo kanata is in it too which makes it more enjoyable for me since im a bif fan of him.. o.o everyones entitled to their own opinionyanie wrote:Btw, how is "Seigi no Mikata" compared to "Yasuko to Kenji"?

^^ Hirosue Ryoko was the reason why i checked YasuKen too. Well i'd say i found her a bit weird in the first half. Like she's waaay too cute to be a gangsta but things get better with her at the end. And i agree about Tabe Mikako's character: typical shoujo girl flaming over the good looking guy. (Yamada Tarou Monogatari anyone? )
Seigi no Mikata is the best comedy this year, man !

Just because Yasuko comes off as your typical shoujo girl doesn't mean she isn't likable. Of course each to their own and I do like Youko more than Yasuko on one hand, but that's mainly down to what a great actress Shida Mirai is. Youko gets more laughs out of me than Yasuko but I still find YtK to be the funnier comedy and that's mainly because of Kenji and Erika.
If we go on to the relationships; Youko and Riku and Yasuko and Jun, I love Y&R loads more. And I'm still waiting for more action from those two. We have episode 6:

I prefer Seigi no mikata. Yasuko to Kenji is OK but it's a little boring for me, the main girl is a bit annoying and the little johnny is just too bad of an actor, I can't stand him. I just like the older brother and sister.
In Seigi no mikata I like all the characters and I laugh many times in just one episode, so that's good. The time quickly goes by while I'm watching it, so that's good too.

The only thing I like about Yasuko to Kenji is the brother/sister relationship. Seigi no Mikata is better than Yasuko to Kenji for the better execution of the plot and acting. Even though both series has some repetitive storyline but Seigi is so subtle at time it’s not that obvious whereas you’ll get tire after a few episodes with Yasuko.

lol.. not a few good months more like another day or two... massuki, the group who hardsubbed the first 5 episodes fast went on vacation for 2 weeks. thats probably why you feel that way.. so right now they are working on episodes 6-8 and on the website, its shows their current progress on episode 6, which they are working on right now. it seems they're almost done with ep 6 i cant wait!Arsenal1508 wrote:I wish more groups could Sub this. First five episodes were subbed very quickly. Looks like we'll have to wait a good few months until the remaining episodes are subbed.

Just watched episode 8. Although I don't speak Japanese, this drama is surprisingly easy to understand. Between Seigi no Mikata and Yasuko to Kenji I definitely prefer Seigi no Mikata. Yasuko to Kenji has this Gokusenish feel to it (overacting, repetiveness, a fight at the end of each episode) and 23-year old Okura Tadayoshi can't possibly pass for a high schooler. There is no chemistry between the actors whatsoever and my overall impression of the drama is not very good.
Seigi no Mikata on the other hand has young yet very impressive cast. I think I am getting sick of mostly talentless Johnny's boys being everywhere and I am glad there are none in this drama. I am very impressed with Hongo Kanata's acting skills after watching the latest episode. With very little air-time he gets, he managed to portray his character's feelings very well. Hope his talent will be recognised.
P.S. I seriously LOVE Jyanbo, he is like a younger version of Goro =D

Re: Ringtone?
Ahh~ i second your question. The ringtone is just hilarious *me wants it*zoreo09 wrote:Not sure if anyone's asked, but does anybody know where I can find a ringtone like "Kumako's" ? I like the screaming one for when her sister calls.
Just seen the episode 6 thanks to the wonderfull team of Massuki It was a good episode (I especially LOLed at the mother in law she's crazy & funny) but the 7th episode looked far more interesteing from the pewviews. Cannot wait to watch it!!

I've just watched Ep. 6 and, again, there was a very obvious reference to Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea! Is it a obscure way of advertising a feature film? And I also wonder whether the very plot of this episode (bootleg DVDs) is in a fact about unofficial Ponyo dvds… Anyway, it is the second time there is a reference to this recent film and it intrigues me.
Seigi no Mikata Yoko's Twist song
Does anybody have this song? I know the theme song that is played at the end, but I don't want that and have already found it. I would really like to make a ringtone out of track2 of this album:

02. 容子のツイスト。
Also, please don't say to rip it from the drama itself because they have the opening and closing credits vocalized every time this song is played, otherwise I would have done that.

I love Shida Mirai.
That alone is enough, but I think the story-line writing is very good, also. And, it tickles my Occidental funny bone.
Although I cannot be choosy since any input is valuable for language study, it is so nice to have a show where gambarimashoo is not the constant theme.
I think the quarrel and gossip scenes also offer instruction in body language, or, at least as used by women. Ne-e...?

is it me or the previews in episode 9 for what is coming up on episode 10
waaah it ended i think i'm happy about the whole plot now~ <3 it was fun watching poor kumako get tortured all this time~
i almost didnt believe Mirai was the same emo kid who acted alongside Kamenashi in sappuri this is a complete opposite role to that one *-* hohohoho ♥
i dont think i was able to hate any of the characters they were all just so awesome~ the one that didnt show up much was Naoki's brother, but i think they only added him to remove doubt that his brother is riku @_@" (at first i thought it would be a plot twist to have them as brothers, but the real younger brother changed that) why is riku living alone in his own apartment anyway i mean he's a middle schooler, right?
i must admit i wasnt interested in it by the poster and synopsis, but i'm glad i tried the first episode *-* ~
well it was a fun ride probably the best (or only?) humor drama this season ♥
thank you Seigi no Mikata team, thank you fansub teams of all languages

Exactly! That's why I said she should fight back even just once. I think it's not normal, being obedient like that, without complaining. But still a fun watching though!Maho-chan wrote:I loved it but that fact the characters never change is somewhat of a problem for me i wish i never watched. sorry for those who loved it i just don;t accept "i was raised spoiled thats just who i am" thing. It was annoying to watch the sister struggle from 1-9 and ep 10 was too much.
I just finished the last episode (Ep.10) and I can say that this show is surprisingly good. I didn't expect that I'd like this series this much. Well, the guys in this show, one who played Naoki and the boy who played Riku, are not my type at all and I usually don't pay much attention to the leading actresses . Anyway, it turned out that I really like Shida Mirai with her comedy role and Yamada Yu with her evil sister's role. ^_^
For Ep.10,

i still have final epi to watch, i can't stop laughing watching onesama gets her nerves over foods hahahaha
i want more of youko- riku scenes!!!
at first, I expecting only for kanata hongo (okamoto riku)
but I totally fall in love with this comedic drama
the casts was perfect, especially Shida Mirai, she's cute!
it's definitely the best drama !!

I loved this drama, esp the last episode I can't spoil it yet for those who haven't watched, but I liked the ending a lot.
There might be a lot of times where you think Makiko is maltreating Yoko too much that it's upsetting, but their inseparable bond, and the fact that Yoko really does love her sister (despite all the abuse she receives) makes it all good in the end...
It's a comedy, like My sassy girl, so you can't take it seriously even if the relationship is totally abnormal (extreme SM), and you can't expect the characters to change and be a different person all of a sudden...it would be weird and it won't be a comedy.
This is a great drama when you want to relax without much thinking, and want to have some good laughs and heart-warming moments

I actually really loved the ending. For one thing, it hasn't lost it's hilarious touch or it even is considered as one of the funniest episode of the entire series . Makiko will never change, but I guess that's what you gotta love about her.
Haha the comment where when the baby grows up and even treat Youko the same way as Makiko does is LOL, but at the same time kind of sad. She really needs to get away from her sister's grasp. I also loved the way Riku''s face had so much emotion on this episode. He was kind of stiff on the previous episodes but on this last one, we can really see how much he loves Youko. One of my all time favorite Jdorama. Can't wait for more Shida Mirai X Kanata Hongo dramas in the future.
I have just finished watching ep 10 and I absolutely loved it. I laughed so many times . I'm going to miss this show for sure . For me it was the best one of the summer season (and I almost tried all of them). It was a simple drama based on a simple shoujo manga, in terms of plot, but it was also very funny and with a lot of lovable characters. It wouldn't be so funny if it weren't a bit absurd, so I'm fine with the way Youko is played around. We all would want more Riku x Youko, but that would need more episodes, since the main character of this story is actually Makiko, and it's just normal she gets most of the scenes.
All the actors in this drama were great but I think the one that did it better was Yamada Yu (and I'm not even a fan of her )

I finished watching this drama yesterday. Thank you Massuki
It was the best comedy this season afterall. I simply loved it. I enyoyed every moment. During the last episode there were funny scenes aswell as sad scenes. I was happy the way they ended the drama. It would have been out of the question for Makiko to become the nice sis
But i didn't like how they left Youko/Riiku just like that. Like everyone else here i also hope for a sequel ! Maybe they will consider doing one after the manga is finished? Ahhh~ now i want to read the manga too as it sounds promising
And the farting song Yamada Yu did a good job overall i agree (not her fan either).
Now comes my question. Has anyone came across the OST? I'm dying to listen again to the song that goes babababibaba whatever.

Seigi no Mikata is clearly one of the best dramas this year in my opinion, because it has everything in it to become epic. I just hope this won't be forgotten simply because there aren't any more famous actors in it (well, "famous" =/= Johnny's or alike, you know) since that would be a shame.
Yamada Yu, Mirai and Osamu did a really good job in it!
And yeah, just as everyone else I'm wishing for a SP or alike. I want more Youko/Riku-action, haha. I'm such a fangirl of romance.

I just finished it too. It was so funny. I wasn't a fan of Makiko, because she was quite awful, but the things Yamada Yu did for the character was hilarious! The looks she brought made me laugh everytime. I'm not a big Yamada Yu fan but she was great in this.
My other favourite scene happens to be Riku/Makiko. That fart song, so funny.
Youko was so cute. I also loved the facial expressions she did. Those really made me laugh but though, aww she's so cute. Like everyone else, I really wish something happened for Youko and Riku. They were just so cute together.
I've never seen..Hongo Kanata in happy drama before, or him really smiling, but he was in this drama. His scenes with Youko/Mirai were cute. I too wish there'd be a special with just Youko/Riku. She could visit him in Osaka.

I think some people on here might be interested in this, as I searched for it before and came upon requests in this thread.
So from episode 1 of SnM, I cut Youko's screaming ringtone for Makiko!

I, personally, am going to use it for my sister :]

Spread the screaming love!
Oh, and sorry but you can hear a little bit of Youko breathing in terror in the background

OMG Shida Mirai is sooooo cute with all her expressions and she wasn't even supposed to be cute in any of her scenes.
This drama was one of the best comedy dramas IMO and well compared to Nodame and Kekkon.
I have enjoyed all Mirai's drama except for Haha which wasn't that good in general so maybe not her fault. I hope she will be part of a romance drama some day or a more serious drama.
A clear 10/10 from me.
