"What is the point in such a sad story?"

Jul 20, 2011 14:45

And now for something completely depressing!

I've picked up Soredemo Ikite Yuku and it's easily the best drama I've seen in awhile. Very emotional, very gloomy and full of tragic things, but also superbly written and acted and filmed. Like, it's one of those dramas that is just quality.

YOUR HEART JUST NEEDS TO WATCH THE LAST FOUR EPISODES.

....I'm waiting for Heartstrings to get further ahead in broadcasting/subbing because I can't stand waiting for subs. It drove me crazy for CYHMH and city hunter.

What other dramas are you watching?

Predictably I am watching zenkai girl.... and just Shige's 5 minute naked scenes in that sister drama.

I KNOOOOW. THERE'S JUST SO MUCH EXCITEMENT WITH THE NEW SEASON. I'm watching Soredemo, Hanakimi, Heartstrings, and Warrior Baek Dong Soo.

Has Zenkai Girl improved? I had someone pimping it to me the other day... it just looks so lame. XD

I was the same: 2 eps and I biting my nails trying to decide whether I should watch ep 3 without subs first to see what will happen - despite knowing that this will be definitely not work as this drama just ain't City Hunter...

Wait, is ep 3 out?! I thought ep 2 just aired. Do you have a ninja source I'm missing?

Soredemo, Ikite Yuku
Date: From 10.00 p.m., Thursdays, 7 July 2011
Station: Fuji TV

So it should be up and running by Friday without subs in the internet. Subs will probably AT LEAST take the weekend...

Hmmmm. I think I'll just wait, then, because it's being subbed by yuizaki-libra and she's usually pretty timely.

/settles down

/WATCHES CLOCK UNTIL THE WEEKEND

What does it say about me that my reaction was basically "omg this looks delicious"? Just need to finish one more drama and then I can swim around in all this angst, yesss.

What did you try from the new season so far btw? Anything else worth attention? :D I only had a look at the Mizuki Alisa drama so far...

IT'S SO GREAT. Angsty and plotty and emotional and real. \o/ And it feels extra nice to enjoy a grown-up drama after weeks of sentai and high school hijinks, but I digress.

Just Hanakimi! How's the Alisa drama? Any good?

miss_magrat July 20 2011, 21:12:04 UTC
Heh, I might go for Hanakimi once I start Soredemo, so that I won't get completely depressed XD

As for Alisa drama - I loved the first episode! It's basically your standard happy family drama (sprinkled with surprise naked Shige lol XD), but Alisa's character MAKES IT. She's fabulous, goes around saving people from drowning on her wedding days and smacking pervy bosses in front of the entire company. And then she has three uber-adorable children trotting right behind her most of the time :D

OOH. I'd heard the family drama part, but not that she was so awesome!

Ahhh, what the hell. It's not like one more jdrama will be a big crunch on my time. *goes to download*

ETA: I DOWNLOADED IT BUT I SEE NO SUBS. D: ARE YOU HOLDING OUT ON ME.
