O_O*

E~~~h again 2 weeks over without posting. It appears I am rather drawn to gaming lately and with those 2 weeks where no new doramas pour in like rain I had time for it.
Although I also managed to finish up Konkatsu, Atashinchi no Danshi, BOSS, The Quiz Show2, Boku no imouto and Shiroi Haru. So at least 6 doramas :)
Now you shurely know what my next entries should be :P .... but now I am kinda tired .. will try to do it on the weekend .. yeah shure :P

MR. Brain Introduction

So some series started mid-season. It's Kimura Takuya staring in Mr. Brain. The cast is also kinda packed, and the first episode got a 25% viewership and the second one still 22%.
Here is what it is about:

Introduction )

I will keep up with it, even though the show is not "better" in most aspects than other shows... one can "only" see it is made with lot's of $$$$$ and some nice ideas :)

Konkatsu Ep2-5 Review

So before Sunday is over I should do at least one review ^^.
One of the comedic romance shows this season is progressing nicely.

Review )

The show is all the way fun to watch, and with some sidestories involved it is much less only centered around the main "couple".

BOSS ep3-5 Review

Now I am going to spoil a bit more of the detective jdrama BOSS :)
While episode 1+2+3 are not connected in cases, we have a slight 2 episode arc in 4+5 :)

Review )

The show might be not on the same level as some of the more "scientific" detective series but it has it's appeal and the team just cracks one up. The old guy .. how he always looses his bag and so on. Can't wait for the next episode ^^ :)

Boku no Imouto Ep2-5 Review

Another thick review, as I just finished episode 5 I'll now do a review for those 4 episodes.

Review )

The story (even though it'S pretty constructed) is going into a darker direction all the time. I hoped for some slight improovements but I think they will keep the worst for later ... I bet it will all start with the old guy dying on Kuki too.
All three main actors Odagiri Joe, Nagasawa Masami and Chihara Koji do their job well and I'll make shure to stay with the show until it's end.
And wth do they always leave out the chances to hug the sister ^^.

Shiroi Haru Ep2-5 Review

This show prooves to be probably the best show this season. So far I am anexiously waiting for each new episode. Althoug some might think the show is a bit too slow paced.

Review )

As said, everyone that wonders what shows are good this season, shoudl at least look at this show. The setting is good, the story development is not based on some spectacular ocassions or jumpy humor, and the story is carried by a set of good actors. Especially Abe Hiroshi seems to be so fitting for this role ^^.

Shibatora Special Review

Somehow I expected this to air later .. seems the jdrama wiki can't have everything right :P
As we are all interested how the story evolves after Mizuki went to juvenile detention and so on, they are giving us a special :)

Here we go :)

Review )

For all of you that watched the series I think it is a must to watch this special. All others, watch Shibatora first or you won't know what is going one, even though there is some 10min introductionary part at the beginning.

Boku no Imouto (Introduction ep1)

With this I will be finally done with introducing the main doramas I am watching this season (oh crap I did not start Smile so far ... so there will eb one more later).

Introduction )

The story is pretty set up with episode 1. We will see how the relationship of Masami with the lawyer will go and what bad things will surround the brother due to the womans death.

Maybe I'll write more about it too :) And as some sideremark, I like Masami in her roles even though they seem to be set up as stereotypical ones ... in contrast to all the "I can#t stand" or "I hate her" people in several threads I read lately :P

Konkatsu Ep1 Introduction

There is also an jdrama with Aya Ueto airing this season (and some Smappy .. no not the drunk naked one :P)

Introduction )

So far the show is a nice comedy and entertains well. It highly depends on how they will wave the story towards the end. But what can go wrong with Aya Ueto and Shaku Yumiko in one show ^^?

LOVE GAME ep1 Introduction

Another one of this season :)
It's the short midnight dorama on thursdays. It stars Shaku Yumiko :)

Introduction )

So far a nice entertaining show, although the setup resembles Sky High in some part. Here again Yumiko plays some "guidance" character to the "players" and has only voice contact with the real game master. Including Konkatsu one can see her in 2 doramas this season :)

BOSS ep1+2 Introduction

Another show I started to watch. I'll give you all some hint on who is in and what the show is about. As it is a detective show I do not need to spoil the evildoers and so on :P

Introduction )

Another show I have to follow as the first episodes were pretty entertaining. With the other cop shows out this season, I bet this one is the funniest.

Now I only have to write introreviews for like 6 or 7 doramas ... O_O but not today :P

Atashinchi no Danshi Ep1

Next dorama is this seasons Makimaki (Horikita Maki) dorama :)
As we all know, Makimaki get's casted into the stranger manga/anime-like doramas. And this one doesn't seem to be different .. so here we go:

Review )

The show is pretty strange, but pretty funny so far. Makimaki really is set up for those "cute girl handling a bunch of guys"-roles ...

The Quiz Show 2 Ep1

So another one in the row. This one made it on the watchlist because Aya Matsuura is in it.
Let's see if it is worth it :)

Review )

So far the show is not the best. Interesting plot though :P Revealing the evilness of the guests on the show ... but I wonder why anyone would go there with some sober mind ...
Big drawback is the lack of Ayaya scenes .... but I hope those will increase with episodes going on!

Shiroi Haru Ep1

So now I am getting to one of the shows I might review more clearly since episode1 was apparently very entertaining.
The show Shiroi Haru is about some guy coming out of jail after 9 years (he was there for murder) and he is trying to find his way in life now, and the connection to his past.

Review )

The story is pretty nicely set up, and we all know what kind of connection the guy and the young child have ^^ ... I am lookig forward to more of this show.

Yukemuri Sniper (Itroduction)

Another short post ^^.
It's the midnight dorama that has the same timeslot as Mendol had.

Introduction )

A good show that you can watch at later hours with more mature rated content ^^...

Ghost Friends Ep1 (Introduction post)

Since the new season started and I am looking into afuly lot of the new doramas I'll try to make short intro posts for the series and might then only do detailed reviews for some of them. And afterwards a review for all (if I can do that :P).

So first in time order of airing was Ghost Friends.

Introduction )

As said, the story and the setup aren't special but it is kinda pleasant to watch :)

Shibatora -> Final Review

I know I know I still ahve the Q.E.D. review waiting, but at Easter I finally catched up with Shibatora .. can't believe how long I neglected it, soon there will be a special airing too ... have to see this one too :)

Review )

The dorama didn't really deserve it to be neglected by me so long since it is really good. Go watch it :)

Meichan no Shitsuji Final Review

Since I somehow managed to only write a review for ep1 I just cover ep10 and give some thoughts about the between ^^.

Review )

Overall this show has prooven to be really entertaining. Although the story isn't really outstanding and the setup rather well known. The girls can watch it for the buttlers, welkl and the guys for the girls ^^:P
