Oh seems like many of you are rooting for Hikari nee~
For me, I really sympathize for Natsumi much more than Hikari (even though Hikari is quite pretty lol)
If Natsumi wasn't there for Shuji, everything would be much worse. As a woman whose her boyfriend get snatched by a school kid, i think the way Natsumi handle things is quite respectful.
As for Hikari, even with all the tragedy in her life, she doesn't have a right to do things that almost destroy the future of a couple; both in profession and marriage.
Hopefully Shuji can make up his mind and do what he really wants to do in the end. This guy is one of the most irritating character I have seen in a while lol
I even though I don't really love this drama, I will keep watching it till the end. [I'm definitely on Natsumi side ]

This is sort of off topic to everyone's discussion at the moment...but Do you know the actor's name? He looks so familiar, but I don't know where I've seen him. Its really bugging me. They are giving him too much screen time, so I have a feeling I will be seeing him in dramas to come. But I don't think this is the first time I've seen him..so does anyone recognize him? Maybe he just looks familiar to me since he looks like a guy version of http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Okamoto_Rei_%281991%29 her?
Update: Ah, finally found his name. http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Nakajima_Kento Its him right? From Johnny's Entertainment. That explains why he is given unnecessary screen time.

Hm, I'm not really a fan of online streams. I prefer highest quality RAWs with softsubs
The reason I'm asking for subs outside d-addicts, is bcs someone previously posted in this thread, that there were subs all the way up to episode 8.
So he/she was talking about the viki.com subs? I guess there are no softsubs, hm?

I way behind you guys because I follow TLS's hardsub. But I love this drama. I wasn't in the beginning, but as the story progress I feel it more like a tense suspense than romantic drama :p especially since I don't know what to expect.
I'm like Emi as Saeki, she's really good for new comer, I didn't expect there'll be more depth in her character but I was wrong. Saeki is really still a teenager, making decision like one. However, Natsumi character is strong, determine and iron woman. She's hurts yes, but she's making all the logical decision for her future and people she loves, may not always the right one, but it's logical. I don't blame Shuji's decision either, it's just a process of being mature, nothing to do with position in the society (i.e. teacher) or age.
I don't know what the ending will be but I don't want to root to any of them, just go with the writer's imagination .. hehehehehe...
I can't wait to see more, but I'm patience waiting for the next hardsubs from TLS ... I feel doki doki each time I watching this, exactly the same feeling as I got from Nagareboshi. Getsu 9 drama daisuki desu!

Okay, so I am now finally 9 episodes in and I totally forgot that d-addicts is an awesome place to discuss dramas! Anyway, here are some of my thoughts -
BTW This drama made me think so much.
Sorry for my long rant!
EDIT: Forgot to say this earlier. Takei Emi is a really good young actress. She pretty much steals the series for me

The writer is at fault with this drama. There could have been more twists and turns like episode 9 when
Is there only 1 episode left?! I don't see how it could end because it doesn't seem like there is a decent plot developed yet Oh well, Shuji doesn't deserve either one BUT I am still cheering for the love couple - Saeki and Shuji! Woo hoo!
I absolute love when Shuji decides to do something. But it always ends up unsatisfyingiluvasiandrama wrote:The writer is at fault with this drama. There could have been more twists and turns like episode 9 when

It's time for some Natsumi defending up in here.
Sorry for it being long, but everyone was suddenly looking at Saeki as the "poor student who makes Shuji a man" and no one seemed to be looking at Natsumi's side. Also, while this sounds biased, I've ONLY used facts from what I've seen in the drama, and only the end contains my opinion (as well as the instance of the whole "caring for Saeki as a student" bit). My first post and it OBVIOUSLY had to involve Haruma in SOME way...(Not that I'm complaining. )
Oh, and in terms of the title, I personally feel it can apply to all of them. It seems Saeki and Natsumi learn from Shuji and vice-versa.

I am little bit behind because I wait for hardsubbed version from Timelessub, so now I'm still at episode 6. I prefer to watch HQ file than watching streams at Viki.
I also have watched raws up to episode 9 lol even I don't really understand everything they said but I can catch the overall story.
I'm so in love with the OST right now especially the first track "Prelude" It's beautiful

I know right? I feel like such a loser for actually doing that, but my friend and I just finally got into the drama again, so I'm pumped on it now. >///< (I'm just glad registration is so easy here and I don't have to "verify my email" like most sites, which pleasantly surprised me.) 4 more episodes (for me)!!! Can't wait to see them!! >:Dyuizaki_libra wrote: Haha, you registered a new account to chip into the conversation ). That's intense.

Also, this has nothing to do with pairings (which may be refreshing) but am I the only one who enjoyed how the writers went about character design and plot?

I personally enjoy this drama, not because there are pairings (which may have kept me on the edge of my seat sometimes), but because there are choices, a lot of them, and growth of characters. The story isn't stagnant; it actually develops into something not-quite-predictable. For a drama like this, what is important is not the twist and turn, but thoughts and insights and developments in the complicated relationships among the protagonist and the two ladies.
I'm quite satisfied with the drama so far, just hoping the ending will live up to my expectations.

Thank you.... because ti seem like everyone forgot what Saeki did initially.
Okay, I registered for this forum just to make some comments on this drama too. Everyone has their biases so I just want to put it out there that I'm Saeki biased. I like Saeki because I pity her circumstances, which does not excuse her like many of you have said, of what she has done. At first I wanted Saeki and Shuji to be together because I liked the chemistry between the two characters. I can feel for them more since there scenes together makes me cry. Its not until I watched episode 9 and saw the preview for episode 10 that I don't mind an ending where Saeki can move on from Shuji and Shuji can finally be with Natsumi. Saeki needs to get over her trauma and inferiority complex and Shuji has helped her overcome that obstacle. In the course of helping her, he has grown to become a man that deserves Natsumi. Its going to be a happy ending for everyone!
About the title, I don't know who it is referring to in the drama. It could be any one or all of them I guess.
What really got me excited for this drama is Emi Takei. I liked watching her in GOLD and liked her even more in Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta. I hope people don't hate her because of the character she plays.

The hidden spoiler below is just my discussion and opinion about this drama and I know that it is just make-believe/fantasy and drama is not real so please if you are sensitive-type don't read the hidden spoiler below, it's just my personal reflection of the drama, plot, story, etc.. that's all.
Now that I think about it, I agree with some of you because...
The strange thing about this drama is I can no longer watch any drama where Toda Erika is a lead actress. For some reason I was completely turned off by her character in this drama. They should have cast Takeuchi Yuko for the part of Natsumi. I will totally join the Emi Takei fanclub and look forward to seeing her in many dramas!
Oh well, I think the ending will be disappointing for me but I am still cheering for the soulmate love couple Shuji and Saeki til the end... no matter what

Well that would be spoil-ish for Saeki to be spoiled in a relationship (regardless of her past) because a relationship takes to people doing things for each other... not being spoiled (as we can kinda see with the initial couple)iluvasiandrama wrote:The hidden spoiler below is just my discussion and opinion about this drama and I know that it is just make-believe/fantasy and drama is not real so please if you are sensitive-type don't read the hidden spoiler below, it's just my personal reflection of the drama, plot, story, etc.. that's all.

Hi minah, looking from the drama perspective, I don't think it could have been anyone that makes Shuji changed. Remember how Natsumi told Saeki that it is because Saeki was there that Shuji could not run away from his problems. Shuji may just pity Saeki because of the things she went through, but there is no denying that there is a connection between the two of them. They can talk together like friends and Shuji can express what he is feeling towards Natsumi to Saeki. He does not talk about his problems to any of his students.
And it is obvious by now that the person Shuji loves is Natsumi. Even with the presence of his ex-girlfriend and Saeki, Shuji still remains loyal to Natsumi. This is the part that the writers did well, they showed us through trial and error, Shuji has changed and become a stronger partner for Natsumi.

@ haruma_obsessed - It's not me it's the writer. That's how they wrote the story
I don't think that I have been this involved in a jdorama before. Which means that it is a good watch and I am not saying that it is bad that I can't watch it again, well depends on the ending... IDK I wish that I would have skipped this drama and watched something else like I intended to do from the start. Now I'm hooked and it's only because of Saeki, I really want her to be okay and not end up with

HAHAHAHA! That is so messed up. I have a feeling by the end of episode 10, Saeki would have matured enough to give him a chance. I mean, all the unnecessary screen time that "scary NERD BOY" received, it must be for some purpose. Unless, the directors were persuaded to give him exposure.

But I like the girl that plays SAEKI. As someone mentioned, I recognized her in GOLD. I just love her voice, since I don't get annoyed when she cries etc. Some other actresses, omg, I would have probably been so annoyed with the redundant pity me role. She really has a strong presence, and her beauty is not something that gets tiring, like some other pretty actresses, and her acting is very natural.

Hi haruma_obsessed, I think your right about the double standard in Saeki's character. I don't know what is up with the writers making her actions at times hard to understand. The only explanation I could come up with is her jealousy towards Natsumi fueling her early actions in the drama (episodes 1-7). Then as we move on to episodes 8 and 9, we can see that she is letting him go. The only problem was inner feelings betraying her. She still feels lonely inside but kept a fake smile on her face so that Shuji does not worry about her anymore.
The writers should have spent more time developing the nerd boy's interaction with Saeki so we get to see that she has some feelings for him. The repeats of him falling down whenever he sees her gets annoying sometimes.

Everyone is so opinionated about this drama! Even my sis wants to get in on it hehehe. Ok, I will just say this
Wow it took me like 45 minutes to write that! Saeki deserves the happiest ending... whatever they can do, they need to pull out all the stops for her. I can't believe there is just one more episode. There has to be a SP in the works! Saeki-chan FIGHTING!
Well this comment is pretty much responding to iluvasiandrama's comment. I've noticed that you commented on some of my previous posts too (some stuff I kinda agree... I see it from that perspective.... but I guess I still have mine too...) Everyone is just viewing this drama in different ways... it's kinda interesting. There's nothing wrong with people debating over a drama.... who cares if we already know they're not suppose to logical (because well... why are we on here anyway? It's kinda fun in a way.... until people take it too far then you do have to remind them it is a show.... ^^;;)
I know I have some thoughts in there that aren't well developed... sorry (I also need to go to bed soon ^^;;) and wish I could elaborate more but I'm such a bad explainer...

@iluvasiandramas
I don't mind Saeki's actress, because when I see actors playing really different roles (like Sato Takeru for example: Kamen Rider Den-O vs. Bloody Monday), I just respect them that much more. The only thing is that the only actors I really pay attention to are Sato Takeru/Miura Haruma and actors closely related to them (like their friends or people from the same agency). I haven't been watching Jdramas--or dramas in general--for very long. >///<

@ haruma_obsessed - I laughed at the end of your post because I think everyone is pissed at the writers, no matter what the outcome... we all dislike aspects/characters in this drama. Although I didn't like Natsumi's character, I can't say that I hate Erika because she was good in other dramas I watched. I'll watch her again, only in stronger roles.
Well, if nothing else this drama has introduced me to Emi-chan and I am her new #1 dedicated cheering fan. I even created several pages for her already on different sites. So no matter what the ending to this drama, I'm happy

...why would anyone want either of those girls to end up with Shuuji lol. I don't care if he's being played by Haruma, Shuuji is too immatuure. I'm not cheering for anyone because well..Shuuji is a crappy prize. I think what people are missing with Shuuji and Saeki is:
I agree with pretty much what haruma_lover says

I know!! oAo I had to go watch Koizora, Kimi ni Todoke, AND Bloody Monday 1/2 to get this weak character out of my mind!! (Also a bit of Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge. <w<) I REALLY hope Haruma isn't this much of a pansy in real life, or I will SERIOUSLY feel bad for his girlfriend. (Okay, I won't feel THAT bad, because it's still Haruma and there's no way these events would actually happen in his life. <w<)«minah» wrote:...why would anyone want either of those girls to end up with Shuuji lol.

He's like the sterotypical female protagonist in a shoujo. Let everyone fight over him while he does virtually NOTHING, and yet they still want him. BLEH!! Seriously Shuji--MAN UP, FOR WHAT'S LEFT OF YOUR DIGNITY IS AT STAKE!! D:< (It actually hurt me to say this because...well...just look at the username...T^T)
As a side-note, when I start watching more dramas and later look for dramas for certain actresses as well as actors (which should happen, since I used to only look for dramas for Miura Haruma and THAT'S expanded), I'll be sure to remember Saeki and Natsumi's actresses. For now, the only actress that I really pay attention to in dramas is the main one from HanaKimi. (Her name escapes me now. >x<)
For once, no spoiler tag neccessary!!

For sure it has to be a plot device. I was turned off by this too becauseSakari wrote:About what gets the drama started, Saeki in Shuji's bed...
With a title like that, it doesn't leave a lot to the imagination. I hope to be pleasantly surprised.yuizaki_libra wrote:Guys, I can't contain my anticipation for today's last ep

You too haruma_obsessed Love your comment!!! You took the words right out of my mouth.
I am little bit behind because I wait for hardsubbed version from Timelessub, so now I'm still at episode 6. I prefer to watch HQ file than watching streams at Viki.
I also have watched raws up to episode 9 lol even I don't really understand everything they said but I can catch the overall story.

I never saw her in HanaKimi (or not yet), but I knew she was in it. Although, yeah--the first thought in my mind was, "Okay, HOW are they going to believe that THIS is a boy?" And they still did...(The Chinese one at least looked much more convincing.) The main one I can remember seeing her in is Nobuta wo Produce. And you were right with Oguri Shun, because it seemed like all the side-characters vibrantly stole the show...Haa~h...I'm going to go watch Binbo Danshi to restore my faith in both Shun and Haruma...[/spoiler]«minah» wrote:I think you were referring to Hori whatever Maki from Hana Kimi (I don't like her and like to forget she was in the show... she sucked as a guy or the other guys were just really stupid) I liked everyone else but the 2 leads (I forget Shun was in the show... I like him, he's a great actor, but he wasn't really that special in HanaKimi)
It's not being anti-Saeki... but it's like... not putting her on a pedestal or something. I think people are pitying her too much to the point that... they forgot what she did. It's not an excuse for what she did ^^;;manlekim wrote:Reading everyone's posts made me realized that many people are very anti-Saeki.

I started for Haruma, but I actually like the plot, too. My friend and I went on an all-nighter to watch the whole thing and he actually wound up crying. I tend to like those "crazy situation" dramas. But yeah--I LOVE Yamamoto, too. He's SO different in HanaKimi than he is in Tumbling. (Oh, and I'm the same way: I will START watching a drama if an actor I like is in it, but if it doesn't suit me, I'll drop it. I almost dropped this one because I thought it was pretty slow in really developing.) I also watched Smile even though I didn't know any actors (despite one being in Arashi), and I was glad. The plot sounded interesting, and it turned out nice. (And eventually Oguri Shun popped up anyway. )«minah» wrote: Binbo Banshi....danshi... whatever it's called.... eh...... well I guess you're watching it because of Haruma but that drama.... I dropped it after 3 episodes.. I didn't know what was going on lol. Now Celeb to Binbo..... that's funny! (Kamiji Yuskue and Ueto Aya) I thought the same thing with the TWN version of HanaKimi... the girl from SHE looks more like a boy than Maki (I didn't finished the TWN version... I'm not crazy over the story but I do plan to finish it) But becasue of HanaKimi I'm fans of Yamamoto Yusku, Kimura Ryo (who... hasn't been in much recently) Hiro, Okada, and Junpei ^^
Sorry this was so off-topic, but minah, for the most part, pretty much wrote what I was thinking, so I've got nothing to add until I see the next episode.

I don't get all the Natsumi bashing through the first six episodes she's the only one of the main three I don't want to beat severely with a stick. To me what Saeki did is unforgivable and dodo brain or whatever Haruma's characters name is well I think I've found things on the bottom of my shoe with more brains than he has. Sure Natsumi is a bit pushy but well she needs to be there is no one on this planet who is strong for his/her self in order to be strong people need someone to be strong for.

Oh really lol Have you carefully read a few pages back?manlekim wrote:
I think someone really enjoyed bashing Natsumi with some self-created fantasized reasons to the point that others who are not even Natsumi bias came out and defended her.
Hating her is not wrong because everyone is entitled to their opinion but some reasons is a bit...
But I do agree that there isn't much room for Natsumi to develop as a character as much as Shuji and Hikari.
She is so mature compared to the other two and already "completed" in a way. Anyway, I think we still need this kind of character in the whole train wrack plot like this.
Or else it would be a total disaster :\
Haven't seen the final episode yet. Only heard from others that it is quite a good finish for this drama.
I'm gonna wait for TLS team.

I totally agree with your final thoughts on the drama. That's exactly what I figured. After seeing the last episode here's my take:iluvasiandrama wrote:Thanks manlekim .

@manlekim
Oh yeah, there was a BUNCH of Natsumi bashing and (what I believe were) unrealistic scenarios earlier, so I felt Natsumi needed some help.
And I'm with you there. Sticking with TLS for this.
