[Discussion] Mop Girl
Am I the only one excited to see this drama?
I didnt think i'd be the one creating a thread for this drama!
http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Mop_Girl
I think it should be good.
Im interested to see Kitagawa Keiko's acting in this drama cause so far ive only seen her in Sailor Moon live action and the fast and the furious 3 (and that movie was bad enough...)
Anyway I thought is sounds like an interesting storyline what do other people think?

The synopsis reminds me of that one show "Tru Calling." I liked that show so, I assume I'll probably like this show. They seem really similar. Tru Calling was about a girl working in a morgue and a dead body would come in, and say "save me." She would then reset to the beginning of the day and would try to save them.

I was 'YES!!!!!!' When I heard that Keiko was going to be in drama! I've only seen her in PGSM and all her other movies... though Mop Girl does resemble Tru Calling a bit I'm sure it will be loads better... .
I admit though, I sort of wished Keiko was in a romance/comedy drama... but that's just me .
Go Keiko!

I'm really curious with this drama since I found the storyline is quite similar with a western series called "Tru Calling". here's the wiki page :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tru_Calling
though both main chara has different occupation (but in similar 'office' ^^), but they posses the same power to help dead people. does anyone has the same opinion as I do?

From watching the first episode, it is like Tru Calling. Shame about the series was cancelled on the 2nd season, but yeah this should be a good series.hydeusrey wrote:I'm really curious with this drama since I found the storyline is quite similar with a western series called "Tru Calling". here's the wiki page :

Tru Calling was a good show - you can tell by how it got canceled so early and in 2005. Like Firefly, too, for example. I still don't understand the canceling fever back then...aj2005uk wrote:Your right.... cool.... Tru Calling was actually a good TV show.
This might be a good drama to watch.

Keiko Kitagawa's drama I'm so happy to finally see her in a drama again (since Sailormoon) ^.^
Has anyone noticed that this show kind of resembles Ghost Whisperer (Western series starrign jennifer Love Hewitt)? I loved that show ^^ I hope that this one turns to be great ^^ of course it has to cuz Keiko-chan is there
Does anyone have an idea why it's aired late?? & I can understand why LIFE was aired late but why Sushi Oji

For me it's a pretty close race between Joshi Deka!, Mop Girl, and Utahime so far. LOL Mop Girl got even better during it's second episode, imo. Keiko's been adorable, and Tanihara Shosuke is truly hilarious! I love watching him go from yelling at Momoko to flirting with French women. I particularly like the chemistry between the leads so far. This case was really fun, and the mix of drama and humor is perfect.NakedAngel wrote:This is probably the 2nd best j-drama for me in the fall.
Keiko Kitagawa's acting are quite impressive in this show haha, especially when she yells the nuuuuuuuuu everytime and get dragged out by securities lol...
This is the opening on youtube.
Destination Nowhere
Destination Nowhere is my favorite theme this season, and the opening itself is really good.

Unknown actress
Anyone know who the name of the actress who acts as the inspector's assistant? i.e. the one in the top right hand corner of the relationship chart.

I've been watching the RAWs, so I'm really only understanding about half of the story so far (and by understanding, I mean as much as a person who can't speak japanese can understand). I normally just wait for the subs to come out, but I'm really loving this series so far. It's like an addiction lol
Could someone answer a question for me about episode 6?

I'm only on eps 2 and I love this series. The girl..Keiko?, well she's cute and makes the character funny and interesting. The guy, he's ok but he's growing on me. I never saw True Calling or Ghost Whisperer whatever Jennifer Love-Hewitt did but I do like this show. 2nd eps was surprising, didn't think they'd come up with that storyline. I started eps 3 RAW but I don't understand much so I stopped halfway.

do after ii save it.. hopefully ii can find a site where they
have all the episodes with engsubs soon because ii
really want to see the rest of the drama^^

Hello!..I hope I'm not yet late for this discussion regarding MG (I've just watched it recently)..actually at first I was skeptical whether I should watch it or not but when I saw a trailer of it and saw Kei-chan ( I didn't know yet what her name was at that time) I said to my self I should definitely watch it! the female lead is gorgeous ...so, thank google for the links and thank timeless sub for subbing it ..I'll patiently wait for episodes 6-10 to be released , I'll watch waterboys for now (heard it was good)...abayou mina-san!
