Finished 35-sai no koukousei since the last ep sub is out :3 I ship Nomura Shohei and Shinkawa Yua now. Although both of them were in GTO, I only thought they were good, and it didn't hit the level of "like." The more I watch their dramas/movies, the more I like them. Please put them as an official couple in some romance drama XD
So the dramas I watch this season are:
- Kamen Teacher: Taiga is the only reason. If he wasn't there, I wouldn't watch it. I'm sick of that type of drama, and KT is like a cheaper version of GTO.
- Gekiryuu: I had been wanting for it since the drama was announced. It didn't disappoint me at all. The tension keeps building up each episode. If you're not a patient person, I recommend you to wait until all eps and subs are out. Waiting one week for next ep is too much for me to handle. I even watched raw to release my eager.
- Hanzawa Naoki: it wasn't in my watch-list at first. However, the rating was so high that I gave it first try and got hooked. Of course, I also like Masato Sakai since Legal High (and more when he's married to Kanno Miho ♥) so there's another reason to follow this. Yuto is surprisingly good and looks mature in the drama. As banker, it's necessary to style Yuto look older, and he pulls it off well. Yamada is a better actor than Yuto, but appearance-wise, I think Yamada is at disadvantage in getting variety of drama/movie roles =/ Yamada will be in Ohno's drama next season, and I'm curious what role he will get. If it's another student one, then I guess Yamada will get stuck with that kind of role.
- LIMIT: only 5 girls survive after a tragic bus accident. They are not in good terms with each other either since they belong to different cliques in the class. 1 is a loner, 2 are in the most popular group (class 1 in term of 35-sai), 1 is the bullied one (class 3), 1 is in middle class, a weak girl just wants to have a peaceful school-life by not upsetting the bullies (class 2 - ex-AKB member Masuda Yuda played this girl). The drama not only follow their story how to survive in the forest but also give some flashback about their personal struggle and past. There are only 2 eps so far. I hope the subber won't abandon LIMIT //pleasex3//
I also tried 1st ep of Summer Nude but it was meh =/ there was no highlight that kept me to look forward to ep2. Pin to Kona ep1 is also in my PC but it took me forever to start. Last night, I jumped here and there, and it seemed interesting. Tama's character is totally likable =) and Yuma's experience in stageplay actually helps him a lot here. If I didn't volunteer tomorrow, I would have watched it. My volunteer shift starts from 6am until 1:30pm. But I have to be there at least half hour to prepare. Now, when I think about it, it will be 8 hours without meal break o.O Wish me luck because the festival assigns me at the transportation loading and unloading, and it means working under the sun. I hope I have energy to enjoy the festival after my shift. Otherwise, I will come back on Sunday. Can't watch Kamen Teacher tmr either =( Taigaaaaa...
There are many membership requests. The reason is obvious. I have mixed feeling. Although I like how people join the comm to get known more about Taiga, it's painful to read how the members declare, "I join that comm but I have no interest in Taiga." =( some even dislike Taiga. Please. If you don't like him, why join his comm and bash him in public? For Kamen Teacher? Ling also provides softsubs for torrent file, no need to get our raw. For Bakaleya movie? the raw can be reposted. You can also find it on asiatorrents, hello torrents, plotboxes, etc. If the file are ours, we let people repost. If the raw is from weibo or somewhere else, we try our best to ask for permission before posting. You think we did it for fandom fame. NOOOOOO, if we wanted to be popular in fandom, we would have picked popular group or popular juniors to share, not this mere junior named Kyomoto Taiga. Personally, I want to keep all Taiga files in one place so that if my hard drive dies, I still have backup. On the other hand, we want to keep them all available (especially old files) for new fans who enter the fandom later. Everyone is new at first. I remembered how I joined the fandom back then, there was no HD file, it was hard to get junior scans. I had to ask people at boys_paper to scan Taiga pages, struggled with clubbox speed to download SC and YOUtachi, etc. With Taiga comm, we hope to save the hassle for new fans. I know the majority of members are neutral fans. I don't mind. I hope to convince them to be Taiga fan later :p I'm just mad at haters. Dear haters:
"we don't share anything that exclusive here so if you are not interested in Taiga perhaps you shouldn't join" --from a friend :P
