Well, that was written in September last year, so they probably meant December 2020. Which obviously didn't happen. Last info I saw from the creators was a plan for early 2021, but I haven't seen any updates from them for a long time now.
https://kisskh.at/list/3rW7oZ94Most Promising Rookie Actors poll. Just for fun, I put Akaso's name there…
I wonder what the definition of "rookie" is? Because some of the people on the list have been acting for many years, and done lead roles before too. People like Hyunjun from Color Rush is definitely a rookie actor, but others have been acting for a decade...
Chii (@motivateanger) on Twitter posted this today: "Translation of an interview with #KeitaMachida about his new drama "Nishi-Ogikubo 3-Star Wine Bar" in the March issue of Gekkan EXILE, released today." https://twitter.com/motivateanger/status/1354382216793444358
Lots of quality issues with this one. Sound is awful, acting is not very good, pacing is off and the script is confusing -- characters act strangely and there are scenes that just seem random that take up a lot of time from the main plot.
I remember that Boyband Love had some of the same issues in the first couple of episodes but improved after that. Hopefully this will too, but I'm not very hopeful. And what is it with trans characters always being used for comic relief?
My big question with this drama is:1. The manga itself only just published in Nov 2020 (1st vol out in March 2021),…
Wow, yeah, that is super fast. From publication to live action contract to script to casting to filming to post-production in only a couple of months?!
Great news! bless Mich :) I really want to buy him/her(?) coffee, but sadly I don't have Paypal. Is there any…
Kofi only seems to accept PayPal, sadly. I've donated after every CM episode to show my gratitude. Don't you have a debit card? I signed up for PayPal eons ago, so I don't know what the process is like now, but it shouldn't be that hard as long as you have a card.
Some extra things they did:They made Kurosawa look for Adachi in this episode 12. When Fujisaki is called they…
They replaced some of Tsuges dialogue in the café scene too, but I can't tell what they put in there instead.
Personally I think redoing the fireworks was unnecessary, the "measly" ones in the actual episode reflect what Fujisaki and Rokkaku could afford or find on such short notice. The big professional ones were cancelled. And I liked the pens :)
