Thanks for your review! If I were to choose, what would you recommend to me, watching the drama or reading the…
It depends on what kind of books you like. Three Body is very wordy and kinda long. It took me like five months to read them all because I’m not used to reading books like that. It’s an experience but I probably won’t repeat it.
Bakebake joins the ranks of subtitled asadoras! I'm really hoping that this subber doesn't drop the project, but since I'm unfamiliar with them, I will definitely be waiting to start watching...
Edit: Sad to hear that the subber of Bakebake dropped the project. However, I understand the circumstances. It’s wrong to share others’ hard work with shady illegal websites that make a profit off them. I also don’t support such websites, especially when it comes to asadoras. I hope that someone else will pick up Bakebake and that the same issue doesn’t arise.
well looks like he wasnt the only man she was seeing."Shukan Bunshun reported ambiguous relationship between…
Disappointing. Such a promising actress. She shouldn’t have been involved with either men in the first place, but she definitely should’ve kept her private life private. I wonder if she’ll ever recover from these scandals.
Finished! My review is posted for those interested. An interesting fact about Futarikko is that it's the first asadora to take place in the future. Aired in 1996 to 1997, but the last four weeks take place in 2001 to 2005. Other asadoras (see Mai Agare) have done this since, but Futarikko seems to be the only to have so much of the story set in the future.
The torrents I download from avistaz are pretty fast. Maybe an hour. If you download from nyaa, yeah it’s going to take forever just because it’s a public torrent and there’s never enough seeders.
This asadora is now available to DL on drama-otaku if you have an account there. I recommend this asadora, though it's not perfect. The heroine and the simple story has a surprising impact. I will be more likely to rewatch this asadora now that it's on DO. I also highly recommend DO. The registration process was somewhat stressful, but it's totally worth it. It's so easy to DL J-dramas and subtitles from there. Cannot recommend it enough actually!
The official poster is too cute! SO excited for this one. I chatted with a subber who said that they might sub this asadora. I really hope that they are able to :)
This is so brutal, WW2 is very graphic here. Aren't asadoras meant for family viewing? I wouldn't let my kid watch…
Based on this comment I'm so curious to start Anpan now! Yes, asadoras are for family viewing and primarily aimed at women, but I don't feel that any of them have ever held back for WW2 scenes. I did think the war scenes in Yell were particularly brutal though. That's the only asadora I've seen that actually takes the audience to the war front. By the way, I watched a lot of war movies as a child, but I guess that's up to each parent to decide.
List is up to date as of August 2, 2025. Since my asadora viewing has slowed, I will update this list less frequently though I will still try to every couple of months.
*Added notes to Chimudondon and Fight to say when they were last updated. Still hoping that the subbers return to these eventually! *Jun-chan is now available to download on drama-otaku! I recommend this older gem. It's not perfect, but I really liked it :)
I will be starting Futarikko soon :) which is the latest asadora to have subtitles released. Note: some eps are missing subtitles since it's a transcription project. And then I'll start Anpan since the subber seems to be working on it consistently. So grateful to have a current asadora being subtitled!
Edit: Also, I've chatted with another subber who hopes to sub the next asadora Bakebake in the future. Crossing my fingers that they are able to!

Edit 2: Leaving this link here in case I need it later: (https://www.tumblr.com/isaksbestpillow/tagged/bakebake) I'm taking it out of the list for now.
