i became an anime nut and started getting into J-Dorama ad hoc because of anime like Clannad& Clannad: After Story. they were like Doramas that were animated but i think the first one i remember watching was Motekithe premise of having multiple women giving me attention was super appealing and i thought Matsumoto Rio was so insanely pretty then. i don't really recall the plot being particularly memorable. Herowith Kimura Takuya then Priceless also with Kimura Takuya andMisaki Number One!! with Karina also based on a manga got me hooked! I thought all the roles Kimura Takuya played were so cool then and i watched everything he had done then to date.
