MaSuNaRa

Thanks a lot for adding me ^_^
WOW, you sure watched a LOT of dramas!!
btw, are you really from Shibuya?

Hi!
I've added you hope that's OK with you.
Reading your subjective and to-the-point reviews always makes me feel the urge to press "Plan to Watch" right away (of course when it's a positive one), and it of course deserves each and every "Helpful" push it gets. I specifically TOTALLY AGREED with your review of Big!!
I love your writing a lot, not sure whether or not you have written previously to MDL or not, but if you haven't then you should, and if you have then I should read them ;-)
BTW, I like your choice of actors/actresses, and the shows I've watched among your favorites are all very good ones, but I still have a lot to watch among them though :)

I believe you speak of Aibou right?
I've never watched that one btw, though I'm a fan of detective dramas :)

Well, it is certainly difficult especially in my state of addiction. And somehow I've noticed my condition has gotten worse with K-Dramas :D
Good point about Detective dramas is that mostly it's a separate episodes system with only few to-be-continued ones.

You're totally right of course! My statement was a bit generalized I guess.
But I notice that the first few episodes mostly get high ratings, coz I believe that even ppl who didn't watch the prequel get tempted to watch owing to the fact it's a prequel so it must be a popular show.
Personally I'm not in favor of original sequels which are only created to make use of a show's high ratings. Also Extensions which K-Dramas tend to make, sometimes they can destroy a totally good story.

Ana as3ad! Enty awel 7ad men tunis a3rafoh btw ;-)

I pray that both our countries and all countries of the Middle East find peace and welfare isA.

Legal High is not the best drama, but it's a genre that I enjoy so much (detective/law) It might feel lacking for RomCom fans though ;-)
btw, I read it was getting a sequel soon.

General Rouge and it's prequel Team batista are both two of my most favorite movies, don't know why but they're just so addictive + they have my favorite Takeuchi Yuko <3

If you manage to watch them please do tell me of your impression :)

You're Beautiful is a favorite of mine, but as for RTP, this show certainly had the potential to become an all time favorite of mine, I was so glad watching the first half of the show coz it felt like I had discovered a new addiction of mine, but then the second half of the show destroyed most of the fun for me.
Btw, after watching RTP I have written a LONG review full of spoilers on my blog if u have time u can read it here http://goo.gl/71yUdu ;-)

I'm currently watching IHYV and In intend to watch QIHM & Gu Family Book, & was considering watching Liar Game later too. glad they're all your favorites :-)
Thanks a lot for the recommendations

The pleasure is all mine!
I have yet to watch 1 Liter of tears which I have been refusing to watch because I felt the title was a bit banal, like the show is designated to make viewers cry as much as possible, but then reading ppl's +ve reviews of it & considering it's a classic that any person who considers himself a JDorama fan has watched, I decided to give a try.
(continue next comment)

Thanks a lot for the article *thumbs up*
Nikkan sports is merely an internet poll, and somehow I notice that most of the seasons the drama with a Johnny's lead gets the highest points, so I believe it shouldn't be trusted a lot, though I'm all for Kazoku Game getting the highest number of awards, it's definitely a wonderful drama!
Now as for the ratings, it doesn't prove anything, sequels tend to get high ratings, and drama with idols and popular figures also do. But to be honest though I keep saying it's not a proff as to whether a drama is good or not I also tend to check the ratings and get affected by them ;-)

I believe it's Yamada Kun to 7 nin no Majo

Al salam alaykom dear sister & Ramadan Kareem \(^_^)/

Thanks a lot for accepting my friend request.

Your favorite dramas r all ones which I like a lot ;-)

Amen, thanks a lot for your prayers <3 in Shaa Allah things will advance for the better.
I've read the synopsis of this one and didn't feel really excited to watch it, but seeing that it's getting a high rating and a lot of users are leaving positive comments, I might be giving it a try after all. I've only watched a few of Sakai masato's dramas (legal high which I liked a lot), but I like this guy a lot coz he plays one of my favorite male characters in 1 of my favorite J-movies "the triumphant general rouge" ^_^

Exactly!! If only ppl can c how trivial this life is & how all what they're fighting for now is in vain but alas :-(
I'm sorry to hear There's trouble in Pakistan too, hope everything settles for the good of everyone Over there too.
Well, there's the protestors who see what happened as a coup d'etat & want the ousted president back, & there's also the other end who's all for what happened & heading in masses to the squares throughout the country to give authorization to the army to take responsibility of fighting terrorism i.e. the other side (ppl for the muslim brotherhood) who is supposedly behind the terrorist acts taking place in sinai against the police & the army. Honestly I don't know how much of that is true, & though I was glad we got rid of the opportunist muslim brotherhood, I don't like the army taking control either, even if they say there's a civil interim government

Cruel city is also on my list, but what's naoki?
The protests are still going on and they're even escalating :-( please pray for us

So you wanted me to recommend RomComs?! It seems I misunderstood your comment then hehehe
You're welcome dear ^_^ . Hope you manage to watch any of them and like it. Please do tell me whether or not you like the ones you watch .
Btw in your previous comment it seems u wrote something in Arabic letters, there's a problem in MDL and non-unicode letters so letters like Arabic or japanese or korean only appear as question marks.

Same here. Well normally I stop watching everything during Ramadan, but this year I watched Joou no Kyoushitu (The Queen's Classroom) and really liked it. It's one of my favorite genres a school drama which I had been putting on hold for a long while now.
After Ramadan I plan to watch I hear you voice and JDorama Tonbi.
I never watched Running man but I hear it has quite the fanbase.

Wa alaykom al salam & Ramadan Kareem ;-)
I know this is a late reply, but I always access MDL from my Phone so I tend to forget replying to some comments >_<
so what have you been watching lately?

I'm not really sure of the exact reason why I didn't like Mr. Brain coz I watched it on TV while in Japan and I tend to forget my impression of dramas I watched on TV/Streaming sites, but I remember that I was a bit disappointed with the drama as a whole and felt it lacking somehow, to the extent I was only half-watching the finale :D

You should try watching the Grand tribe too if you haven't. It's an adaptation of a famous bestseller novel, a bit dark but simply a masterpiece!

Of course I'd love to hear of your review after watching them!! Please do tell me ;-)

Priceless though had very funny parts, it was too unrealistic and overdone for me so I didn't like the show in general, so no need to force yourself to watch it ;-)
