some people are listing things before 06...
*shrugs*

from 2006 i only liked attention please(minus the ending...lets hope the SP fixes that...) and rondo.

everything else sucked in my opinion...altho i might watch taiyou no uta...seems nice...and maybe sapuri...altho i hate e-toe miss sucky and the turtlenashi guy...

I watched a few only, and I got stopped during 4 months, but from what I watched my favs list:

1. My Boss, My Hero : Gotta admit this ones were GREAT!

2. N's Aoi : Really good dorama, it was really nice to watch that.

3. Teru Teru Ashita : I loved how they merged both stories, Sasara's Saya and the Teru Teru Ashita's ones, I haven't read the books, but as a series it looked perfect and also both stories were really nice.

4. Dandori : Loved the plot and the stories of all those girls, very positive dorama.

5. Kurosagi : The story was exiting, and the plot was perfect.

I would add a #6 spot for Attention Please, also Shimokita Sundays looked so cool, shame there are only subs till episode 4, so I couldn't finnish the dorama yet. Aya's is really getting stronger in having the first roles in series.

I only watched a handful of Jdramas last year so my picks will be limited to those I watched. My top 3 are as followed:

1) Kekkon Dekinai Otoko - an instant classic. Honestly, this is THE drama of 2006, no doubt about it. The scripts are wonderful with stellar performance from the cast.
2) Nodame Cantabile - hilarious, the best live action adaptation from manga next to GTO. Energetic and musical.
3) Iryu - like others had said, this drama is exciting.

KDO head and shoulders above the rest.

I have also liked My boss my hero (mainly for its song and the iron-faced teacher). And Kurosagi was not bad either.

I personally liked Kekkon Dekinai Otoko and My Boss my hero... its hard to decide which is better but for #3: kurosagi.. probably because i _still_ love Yamashita from Nobuta.. Yes that was a while ago but it's autoassociative memory u know :P

Im downloading Tatta Hitotsu no Koi as I type. so it may flutter up to my top 2006 list.

Hand's down my favorite Jdrama last year would be Kekkon Dekinai Otoko. I just love it's subtle humor. The chemistry between the characters were simply great. Superb acting from both the lead stars, and even the supporting casts gets their chance to hsine in the show. The pacing of the story was simply flawless, hoenestly I can't think of a scene where I was bored. And the ending was very satisfying... 8)

ANd also:

Nodame Cantabile - Just pure entertainment, and course the music's great too...

My BOss My Hero - Nagase is just too damn funny on this one, his wacky facial expressions was simply hilarious. And of course there's Yui Aragaki, reason enough for me to like this drama... :lol
