Finally watched this. I've had a fun time this year reading the book, watching the 1980 miniseries, and then watching this one. As with all adaptations, there were things I liked about both. The 1980 version was more faithful to the book imo, but I didn't particularly mind where the 2024 version diverged. Since it got renewed for a second and third season, I think the changes it made will suit it in the future. Anyway, it's a great series that I definitely recommend.

Started this after Natsuzora and I’m already loving it.

I might check this out. I like that it’s only 15 min per episode like asadora. That will make it easy to finish.

It’s a new time slot NHK has made to target young people who prefer short form content.

At ep 57 and Ganda being mostly MIA is starting to seriously hinder the show. I might have to consider dropping it if she doesn’t return soon.

I might subscribe to iWantTFC to watch this, but I’ll watch Princess and I first. We'll see, I might not have the time or money lol 😂

Based on the ratings I give his works, I’m starting to wonder if I’m actually fan of his lol. That aside, I still love him 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

Enrique was trying his best in this role, but the movie just lacks a certain punch…

I agree with you for the most part. I actually really enjoyed QoT, but I think that was mostly the experience of watching it as it was airing. I don’t think I would’ve liked it as much as I did if I had binged it. For me, I only really noticed the writing fall apart in the last two episodes.

Where did you watch?

Just started this asadora and I can already tell I’m going to love it. It reminds me of my first asadora Hanako to Anne.

Excited for season 2! Season 1 just barely scratched the surface of the book.

Such a good actor. I need to watch more of his dramas.

I hope this gets subs eventually since the premise sounds promising.

Damn I should’ve watch this one first. It’s better than the previous two asadoras I watched (Dandan, Manpuku).

Just updating you~ Subs for Mai Agare are currently on a website called dramaotaku.com. The subber seems reliable so I think it'll be completely subbed within this year or early next year. You need an account to access dramaotaku and registration is around the beginning of every month.

Just finished season 2. It’s very good, but it left a couple of unanswered questions. I wouldn’t call the ending a cliffhanger, but they’re obviously aiming for a season 3.

I’m not going to argue with you. I was explaining the reasoning behind my original comment. Both series are still American-made no matter how many Japanese people worked on them. MDL allows these productions on here if they have certain amount Japanese, Korean, etc. people working on them.
