Is there a better way to start a dorama than this?



Obviously , not.

That's from ENGINE which I'm going to watch now.

---

So in the last two days I watched episode 09 of Around 40, Hotaru no Hikari complete (in one go ~.~) and 7 episodes of  Love Revolution.

So, who is the common denominator of the three of them? ....

Fujiki Naohito...



I've been trying to search his concerts in DDL but it seems that I'll have to use clubbox/gogobox for them :/


Btw, I REALLY liked Hotaru no Hikari, which surprised me. I thought it would be different but it was a pleasant surprise. And loved the end ^.^

And about Love Revolution. Well, I'm not really into doramas which only plot is a love story  but it's a decent dorama ^^

but... ( girl on girl ? not really a spoiler, but captures from the dorama )

oh~~

Miyazaki Aoi filming scenes of Shonen Merikensack (latest Kankuro Kudo movie)

http://www.nipponcinema.com/news/aoi_miyazaki_gets_zany_on_the_set_of_shonen_merikensack/

---

ah ;_; DIRT got cancelled, not so surprised since I read rumours about it but it's a pity, I loved it ;_;




And now I'm back to a naked Kimura xD

*breath* Today I feel better ^.^

English info about Tsuyo new dorama, but the Japanese articles have contradictory info XDDD
You can read it here or here.

I'm really curious to see who will be the other cast members. From all the Je 'boys', Tsuyo is one of the best actors and 4 years without a drama it's too much time :/

Talking about cast members... I want to know NOW the cast for Yasuko to Kenji, Mabo new dorama.

---

Actually now that I'm checking drama wiki, the next season there are a lot of doramas I want to check because of trama or because of cast.

Tomorrow  I like this kind of doramas and the cast is impressive, with Takenouchi Yutaka , Kanno Miho, Takanori jinnai
Kansahojin  Taka ne dorama and first time lead role in one. only 6 episodes. The story doens't call me too much but it's taka and it's a lead role and there is ABE SADAO , and I love him xD
Maou Ohno, Toma & Shugo.any of them alone is a reason to watch something, imagine the three together XD And  I'm interested on the story. I'm really looking forward seeing Toma in a serious dorama since he got popular ^^. And i'm extremely curious about how Ohno can do it, He is great on playsand I think he can o great on doramas, but we need to see ^^
Code Blue This dorama, other than the three main roles, has an incredible good cast. And there is Yamapi, Gakky and Toda. I'm curious specially about Toda role, since it seems to not being like her past roles of stupid girl. And also looking forward to Pi work after kurosagi and what it meant.
Seigi no Mikata I like both Yamada Yu and Shida Mirai but not sure about the plot. I'll check it and decide afterwards XD
Monster Parent I like law doramas but I don't always like Yonekura Ryoko xD But thereit's Yuta, so I'll check it xD
Taiyo to Umi no Kyoshitsu I dn't know, I'm a bit satured of school doramas but Oda Yuji is a good actor and the cast is full of young actors and i like a few of them... xD
Cat Street. Kamio Yoko manga + Katsuji Ryo + Kimura Ryo. Another 6 episodes dorama. too bad I don't like Kurokawa Tomoka but I can deal with her xD(link to the wiki for the manga )
Yasuko to Kenji It's Mabo. I love Mabo. I love this kind of stories. I just hope it doesn't end being a 'stupid' (like yukan club xDDD) dorama and it's good ^^
33-pun Tantei as I said, It's Tsuyoshi.

But like always I'll follow one or two menawhile it's airing and i'll fully download only a few of them but till I see the first episode they are the ones i'll be waiting ^^

( winter season (2009.01) )




This comes from 2ch, they are just rumours.

dorama RUMOURS for next season...

I gathered the ones from the last days. this changes almost everyday LOL XD
( shun, eita, nakai, kou, jin, jun, toda, .... )


I saw others but I didn't care about the cast so I ignored them xD

I remembered this scene but I forgot about the rain... and omg. I love the rain.
I love my fave boys/girls all wet and sexy xDDDD

They keep being extremely faithful to the manga. I love that.

The kiss, oh the kiss, I almost die laughing XDDDD (and actually I jumped on my chair XD)

I already shipped aniya/shinjo on the manga, but with the dorama even more LOL. the way they look each other, how shinjo it's overprotective with aniya XDDDDDDD 

I can't be the only one who loves seeing Yuu covered in blood *_* xDDDDD

Little by little I'm finding promos of the dorama that they did before it aired. I'll be posting it over tobenaitsubasa in the next days ^_^ ( I already posted hayato in hanamaru cafe ^__^)

ahh... I wish Takaoka and Kyosuke Yabe would have a scene together in ROOKIES. I 'sqeee-ed' pretty hard when I saw Yabe inthe second episode and in the 3rd he has a scene too.


Btw, Captures I did a lot on this episode. I had the rain scene captured almost frame by frame LOL xDDD


ROOKIES 03 CAPTURES [DOWNLOAD - 299 CAPTURES-]

Preview of them

( a few rookies captures. wet ichi is sexy ^__^ )



My sister told me that she already has my bday present XDDD ( she brought it today with my mother ) I wonder what it is *_* But I still need to wait a month :/

I downloaded EIKO (one of the Tetsuji films I was missing, I skimmed through it and he seems to appear a few minutes but with blue/grey hair O_o) And sadao abe is also in the film, too bad that they don't share scenes. but but... they always will be Onisan & Pinko-san ♥

RUMOUR!

GOKUSEN Movie Version coming up with all previous cast

「ごくせん」映画化！小栗、亀梨、赤西ら最強メンバー大集合！

( more )

Taken from kinkikids.wordpress.com ( and they grabbed it from [HERE] )

Not really sure what to think about it *_*
I'm not watching Gokusen 3, I got bored with Gokusen 2 (I still need to finish it) but I always wanted to see what happened with Uchi and the rest (other than kuma XDD)  But it only talks about shun, kame, jin & teppei . not jun or nari or anybody else.

But jin + Shun can be awesome... But shun would eat (acting skills talking) jin and kame... XDDDDDDDD

But I think that in general Gokusen should die already xD

btw, remmember it's just a rumour from a gossip blog. It just can be the delirium of somebody xD

ROOKIES


I'm totally impressed of how well they are following the manga, form all the manga to dorama adaptations I saw  this has to be the best done.

( comments about episode 01 & 02 )


CAPTURES OF EPISODE 01 [DL RAR -318 captures-]

( a few captures from episode 01 )

CAPTURES OF EPISODE 02 [DL RAR -128 captures-]

( a few captures from episode 02 )





And what really annoys me it's that Gokusen it's getting such a ridiculous high ratings and  rookies it's just so-so (but doing really good if we ignore gokusen and compare it to the other dorama ratings xDD)

Btw, you can download the scanlations of the manga over here: http://stoptazmo.com/manga-series/rookies/


PS: PLEASE DON'T HOTLINK THE CAPTURES :/

PS 2: ADDED THE EPISODE 02 HERE

Before I leave..



I watched Hokaben 01.


( more )

( shige )

Rikon Bengoshi episode 01 captures

I wish it had subs ;_;
I have season 1, need to download sp and season 2, which I'll do once i finish downloading Teruteru kazoku & Pure Soul (which I found today ^O^! )


( captures, mostly Tetsuji Tamayama :P )

"Bi The Way." Doc [review] but even if the doc isn't good, only for this it's worth it:

But the film does contain one fascinating figure — Josh, a kid on the cusp of puberty who's the son of "Tarnation" director Jonathan Caouette from an early fling with a female friend. Raised by his mother, but in touch and on good terms with his father and his father's boyfriend, Joshua can seem disturbingly grown up and over-informed, but also extraordinarily free, a child sprung from an experimental petri dish of openness and supportiveness in which his determining of his own sexuality is as close as it can come to being no big deal.

Tarnation is a documentary that a long time ago killermoon made me watch. I was totally fascinated by it and I would recommend it to everybody ^^


Megaupload is being retarded, once again, with my uploads -.-'' I wanted to have all kinpachi reuploaded before hokaben starts but i see it difficult at this rate -.-''

Btw, hokaben promo ... *fails* Shige & Aya looks amazing together. Not to mention how cute shige was.. LOL .
Kazuki looks as good as ever. Each day I anticipate more and more this dorama ^__^

btw, welcome back, dear wagahai ♥


in the last days I saw  Latter Days , Babel &  Everything is Illuminated

Latter days was ok. But Babel and Everything is Illuminated are wonderful.
Maybe 'Everything' is the one that moved me the most.  I laughed so much and at the same time it was such a tragic story.


Also in the last days I saw  Hakusen Nagashi. The main reason to watch it was Nagase but I ended loving the dorama.  
I suppose I liked it because everybody lived that experiences or similar ones. Searching for your real self. Looking for your place in the world. think about your future (well, i'm almost 25 and I'm still with these doubts XDD)
I wish the specials have subs soon, I'm dying to see what happened with them after they parted ^^
(btw, call me stupid but checking now the wiki I realized that Yokko was on it... ... ... O.o who he was? in which episode he appeared? O.o )


Not really sure about what to watch next O.o I wanted to see  Ningen Shikkaku but I prefer to wait for all episodes to be released XDD
btw, anybody knows if the dorama is based in any way in Osamu Dazai book of the same name? 
I was checking Osamu wiki page ( who can try so many suicides and never die? xDDD) and Ningen Shikkaku book caught my attention.

Talking about books, since I had it at home, when I read the news of shun being in ninagawa adaptation of snakes and earrings , I read it. It's a really small story. Very powerful. You read it really fast.
btw, Shun and Tatsuya roles are really small cameos of two yakuza, but in a way they are the key of the story, because the most important things happens after they appearance. xD

And the other day I brought Irvine Welsh Trainspotting and Murakami Haruki The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle . Probably will start both once I finish Banana Yoshimoto Amrita (which I'm reading right now)
i was about to buy other Welsh books, Virgin Suicides by  Jeffrey Eugenides or another Murakami book they had in paperback ... but little by little xD

Meanwhile Last Friends was downloading I re-watched the beginning of ORANGE CLOCKWORK . After all today was the day of the DV guy xD

After watching CO nothing is too violent too watch :P

( naranja mecanica captures )


I'm so in love with this movie.




Btw, Last Friends. wonderful.



YOU CAN SKIP THE NEXT. they are just my rambling about the dorama and DV and Lesbianism XDDD Might contain SPOILERS

I was a bit 'scared' of how they would portray the domestic violence , if they will make it realistic and also was 'worried' about how they would portray Ueno obvioulsy crush on Masami.


DV. Unfortunately it was portrayed perfect. Not talking about the actors and how they did it. I'm talking about the script and how they developed the story.
I was going to be a person that worked with women who suffered from DV or with kids with DV too. (that was what interested me the most from all my options) I ended leaving the studies for that but two years studying about it and meeting the affected people (along drug addicts,handicapped kids , alcoholics, etc...) let me see how cruel this world can be.

And a lot of guys who are violent at home are like what you see on the dorama. Great and nice guys. Nobody would suspect them. They are the perfect couple, the nice and loving husband and they were, at the beginning. But inside the house they transform into a different person, their real self.
A lot of them, do what ryo did on the dorama after hitting her for the first time, feel ashamed, cry, ask for forgiveness, they are really sorry for doing that. They repeat they would never do it again.
Actually they are truly sorry, which of course, doesn't make them less guilty. the problems is that they keep repeating it over and over again. they loose control, they hit the partner and ask for forgiveness and feel sorry. they eventually stop the last part, and they only hit, never feel sorry and they start to be even more violent.

I want to see how Ryo character develops.


Masami. This dorama think that will be her redemption with me. Till now I really didn't liked her as actress, now I might change my mind (or I already did XDD) I was able to feel her fear and was able to feel that even so she still loves ryo no matter what.


As a personal reasons, I'm extremely excited to see Ueno as lesbian (or bisexual). I don't recall any lesbian themes in main doramas and Japanese doramas really lack decent gay/lesbian/bi roles. they normally are the laughing point f the dorama, the extravagant ones. They are there to make fun of them... Japan needs serious approach of this in main doramas . (my wish, L world Japanese version with je boys? yes(yes? XDD)


btw, after my rant, captures (sine I have to capture ALL the stuff I watch xDDD)

There are spoilers. a lot of them XD

( last friends. episode 01. captures. spoilers )

since I uploaded it for a request..

Jin + Ryo - Care (dream Boys) [DL]

SC 2003.11.02 Akanishi Jin - Hesitate [DL]

Akanishi Jin - Hesitate [DL]

SC 2005.06.19 Jin + Ryo - Ai no Katamari [DL]

Hesitate is one of my fave Jin solos. And Jin + Ryo is just. great. I wish they would sing more together ^__^

I watched Dare Yori mo Mama wo Aisu 

A heartwarming home drama told from the perspective of 11-year-old Kaoru (Nagashima), who says his family is often called weird/unusual. It revolves around the lives of stay-at-home dad (Tamura), lawyer and breadwinner mother (Ito), tomboyish oldest daughter (Uchida) and SNAG oldest son (Tamayama). A mysterious neighbor (Kobayashi) also gets involved. (+ Pinko-san, a crossdressed done by Sadao Abe)

It's a family / love dorama. the family members are a bit unusual but all of them are greatly portrayed by their actors ^^
I can say that i totally understand why shun was so infatuated with Uchida Yuki when he was a teen. the more I see of her, the more I like her^^

But... Pinko-san + Oniisan... I don't really want to talk much abut them since everything would be spoilers. Their story it's great and i totally didn't expected how things turned at the end . THE SPOILER (them at the last episode, no click if you want to remain without spoilers ^^): http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/4805/bscap1291og2.jpg

Anybody else saw this dorama?

---

Yesterday killermoon was here. she is reorganizing all her dvds... which means she gave me her old dvds.. which means that right now I have around 200 dvds full of occidental films ready to be watched LOL . We share the same taste in film so I will give a really good use  of them ^__^
and other good thing is that a lot of the films that all of you recommend me on this post  are on the dvds xDD


the problem is that I lack space to put more stuff -.-'' xD

Haken no Hinkaku

Story:. Haruko is a responsible and capable OL who earns 3,000 yen an hour and has 28 people under her charge. She, however, never cracks a smile, is cold, never minces her words and leaves the office on the dot. Haken no Hinkaku is a timely drama that examines the differences in the treatment of an OL dispatched by a food manufacturer to a supermarket and regular employees, and the ways to overcome frictions in interpersonal relationships. It follows in the wake of an October report on labor conditions by the Labor Ministry, which showed that the proportion of regular employees to OLs had doubled compared to that eight years ago, after a relaxation of regulations.

Cast:. shinohhara ryoko , kato ai, Koizumi Koutaro,Ooizumi You, shirota yuu
