I'm watching the same dramas except for Shinzanmono. I saw about ten minutes of the first episode and couldn't get into it at all, which is really sad because the cast seems fantastic. It seems like Japanese audience was disappointed because they said Abe Hiroshi's acting isn't up to par. :|
Sunao ni narenakute...I don't get the point of Twitter in this, because they could have used other social networking sites like Facebook and the plot would have remained unchanged. But I'm only watching this because the Eita/Juri pairing is awesome, lol.
Hahaha, the moment Ohno's insert song came on during the episode, I did a double take because it was so random, haha. This drama is definitely my weekly happy pill.
Narimiya Hiroki/Naka Riisa makes me happy too.
Lol, this comment is getting way too long. Um. I still need to watch that HnA, haha!
the only new drama I have watched is sunao ni narenakute... I don't even know why I decided to watch it... probably because it was about twitter, lol. but it was actually one of the newer dramas that I actually made it through the entire episode! I agree that I really like eita and juri's characters but you are right: it is SO ANGSTY. but maybe that's what keeps me interested...
however, it bothers me how inaccurately they portray twitter! whenever "peach" tweets "peach desu. this is my first tweet" or whatever and then korean dude tweets, "peach, that is a cute name! I will follow you." HOW DOES HE SEE HER TWEET IF HE IS NOT ALREADY FOLLOWING HER???
Yeah, angsty dramas kind of suck me in as long as they're not TOO angsty, haha. I couldn't handle Last Friends, because all there was was angst. :/
Ah, that's true. And I don't know how it is that they find random people? I don't go around finding and following random people on Twitter, but whatever...
I LOVE KAIBUTSU-KUN. ♥ Really, REALLY love it. Ohno is hilarious!! I agree it would be great if he did another serious role, but he's such a wonderful comedic actor. ^^ His facial expressions are just fantastic! And seeing him next to Choi Hong Man makes it even funnier. XDDD And the insert song is the cutest thing! I want it on my iPod, it makes me happy. ^____^
Jaejoong is so gorgeous. *.* I haven't started that one, but I'm planning to if only to see Jae. And Eita, who is adorable. XD
I've watched the first two episodes of Tumbling and it is NOT stupid. There's a fair amount of comedy (though not the over-the-top variety like in Kaibutsu-kun), but a lot of it is about friendship and working for your dream and all that stuff. It's really cute, kinda reminded me of Rookies a little bit. ^^
OMG yes! When they were in jail and he was sleeping on Franken's arm... ♥
Rookies is truly excellent, if you like 不良 and 仲間 stories. ^^ I'd have to say Tumbling is even more enjoyable than Kaibutsu-kun so far, I hope they keep it up. ^^
I'm waiting for Nari's drama to be subbed. It's a high school/yankee drama+Nari. What's not to watch? xD
I think Jun secretly wants to be pasted on a moving HnA van around Tokyo with cute pose shots. He never fails to surprise me. Or anybody for that matter :D
Going was a disaster to me. It's like a bad mash-up of Arashi+NEWS+KATTUN style. I want KTTUN to do good. For a lot of reasons T_T Yorokobi no Uta is THE song for me. They went downhill ever since. I hope it'll change.
I got impatient, so I watched it raw. XD But it's pretty easy to follow, even though I couldn't always catch what they were saying. Not exactly the most original plot ever, haha.
Haha, right? He was whining, but only as a cover~
Yes! Yorokobi no Uta was ~amazing~. I really liked the Break the Records album too though, it's just...not so great since then for me. >_>
Well you know I'm watching sunao ni narenakute. I just watched ep 4 RAW and well...yeah the drama doesn't let up. It's all about Juri and Mine!
I'm kind of sad that Shinzanmono seems kind of meh. I dl the first 2 ep because the story is by the same person who wrote Ryuusei no Kizuna (I believe) and I really liked that. Huh.
Still need to watch Yankee-kun *sigh* The manga's funny.
I need to watch episode 3, since the subs finally came out~ I can have one drama-filled drama (lol) this season.
I also need to watch the second ep of Shinzanmono. I'll let you know if it gets any better. Was it by the same person who wrote Ryuusei no Kizuna? I did really like the drama, but I'm afraid I was influenced by Nino from Arashi, haha.
Ahhhh the drama is so great. I hope it compares to the manga though.

I don't know if Facebook has caught on in Japan? Maybe that's why they chose Twitter? idk. But yes~
Do watch Himitsu! It's so worth it!

XDDD Exactly! Especially the times when he like, clings to him and stuff. ♥
Yes! :D It's totally worth it.
I haven't seen Rookies, but it's on my list, haha. Good to hear positive things about Tumbling! Guess I'll have to watch it then. :D
