Keeping in mind that Bussen is a comedy, the drama isn't bad. Though the fun comes mostly out of the out of this world reaction from everyone, as the jokes are so so, Bussen had an interesting story to tell. So, it was unique and that made it refreshing. That said, the drama was too much of a manga like drama, keeping the origin too vivid. So, if you like that in your show, you will enjoy this one. Also, the performances are good from everyone in the cast. Finally, the ecchi factor in the drama was kind of annoying at some point, although at fist it was funny. So, six out of ten.

Rinsho Hanzai Gakusha Himura Hideo no Suiri is a drama that, unfortunately, walked too closely to the Sherlock Holms footsteps. The duo, however, was entertaining to watch. The two of them spiced up the story and they made the drama interesting to watch. The cases, however, even though they were interesting, they weren't presented nicely, and, thus, they were confusing. Fortunately, they were explained in the end. So, for the performances and the whole vibe of the drama, six and a half out of ten.

I was expecting too much out of Hayako sensei, kekkon surutte hontô desuka? and, unfortunately, it failed to impress me. The story was really good at first, however it got tiring after a while, as the leading lady's story felt like it had come to a standstill and the only action came from the side characters. That comes to a big contradiction with the fact that the drama's best note was the leading character, who was adorable, funny and relatable. The romance, however, was not as enjoyable. So, six out of ten.

What I liked about Share House no Koibito was the begining. That, and the friendship dynamics between the leading lady and the crazy alien guy. However, the fantasy part was really bad and ruined the story. Maybe, if there was an episode or two, the story would have made more sense and it would have felt complete. But, unfortunately, there were not and thus, the drama concluded quite badly. Plus, the romance was not necessary. The second lead was annoying as well. At first, I didn't mind, but later on, he just was not enjoyable to watch. The rest of the stories were nice and cute. So, five out of ten.

With no prior to this movie experiance of the story or the characters, I've found Saraba Abunai Deka: Long Goodbye very entertaining. I especially loved the duo, who were a delight to watch. And the performances were really good by everyone. However, the story is the classic crime-police themed story, with the bad guys covered in tattoos and the two detectives failling to catch them and thus, disappointing a lot of people, but, eventually, coming to the final battle. The ending was good as well, but I would have liked a better one. So, eight out of ten.

If you liked the main drama, Ms. Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles, you'll like this special as well. There was ramen, there were the same girls plus another one, there was a story and restaurants as well. The friendship dynamics weren't as strong as there were in the drama, but the girls' performances were good. The ramens were nicelly presented as well. So, when it came to cinematorgaphy, everything were on point. However, the story isn't anything special. It can be missed actuall. So, 6.5 out of 10 for this drama special.

Otona Joshi translates into Lady Girls and the drama tried to present that. The main characters are three women who still feel like girls, even though everyone around them treat them like they are old. The women learn to not listen to what everyone expects from them and to follow their own heart. I actually enjoyed the leading lady's story, as she matured and moved on after her break up and business adventure. Her love story was nice as well. However, the two others weren't presented as nicely. It actually felt a bit rushed for them, as they were overshadowed by the leading lady's story. Finally, the performances were good from everyone. So, 6 out of 10.

Heat is a slice of life drama about strong community relationships. The story started nicely, with an interesting, intense story as we were introduced with the members of the fire team and the locals, as well as the main characters life and intentions. As the story progressed, the hero underwent a nice character development, which was interesting and entertaining to watch, along with the small cases. However, the ending was not as good. It felt a bit cliche actually. Some of the stories were cliche as well. So, overall, 6 out of 10.

My second try with the kamen rider series was slighly better than the first one (the fourze series). Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Fourze & OOO: Movie War Mega Max lead a more mature plot, with lots of action and nice twists. Even though the costumes, or at least some of them, were bad and kind of ruined some scenes, the action scenes and the fights were nice. The cross over was made smoothly and it was interesting. There were some funny moments as well. Finally, the performances were good from everyone in the cast. So, six out of ten.

Surprisingly, Goldfish Club was a decent drama. Although the theme is school, the main characters have a lot of baggage to be trapped into the shoujo trops of the genre. The drama was dark at times and it followed the course of the relationship, as the two of them healed each other. The side character were, however, like out of the romantic comedy and her reaction was a bit too childish and predictable. However, except of that, the drama mainly follows a darker, more melodramatic path and it explores the characters quite well. The performances, finally, were really good as well.

SIGN has a nice, slice of life story that follows a young man with hearing disability, as he tries to become a dancer. The dancing part was really good surprisingly. Though, I didn't get how he could talk so well, since he could hear only music. Apart of that, we followed some of the members' of the dancing group lives, as well as the main characters. The stories were okay and they (well, at least most of them) had a satisfying ending. The performances were good as well. Finally, the family dynamics and brotherhood between the leading character and his brother were interesting as well.

"Tonari no Kazoku wa Aoku Mieru" is a nice, homey drama that dreals with four different families. The series focused more on the main couple, who had problems with getting pregnant. Each story was different and interesting in it's own way, although some were better than others. But all were heartwarming and cozy, as well as sad and romantic at the same time. The performances were good as well from all the actors and actresses. So, overall, seven out of ten for this family drama with four interesting stories.

3D Kanojo: Real Girl has a story that it feels as if you have watched it somewhere before. It doesn't offer much of a surprise or a nice never seen before twist. It just follows the well known melodramatic love story. I did like the otaku theme, however, and how a lonely boy found friends and love. The couple, actually, had chemistry and they looked nice together. Though, after the five year time skip, all the characters looked the same and too childish to be grown ups. But that is I guess a minor misstep, concidaring that the movie was just so so. At least the CGI were nice.

This drama is just okay. It actually reminds me of the american sitcom The Nanny. There was a nice home-y feeling that this drama projected, which was the highlight of the drama, along with the cameo of Exo's leader, Suho. Other than that, the story was boring and predictable, though, better than what I expected after reading some reviews and comments. I kind of liked the romance in some episodes, but it ended up being a bit frustrating to watch. The ending, finally, was okay. So, five out of ten.

Maybe I was expecting too much from Spellbound, as most of the reviews and comments about this movie were possitive. However, even though it was a decent movie, it lacked some intensity for me. Plus, the romance happened kind of fast, but the progress of it was good. I also enjoyed the performances, especially from the couple, who had chemistry. The ending was good too and the scary scenes were mild, so even I, who's a scary cat, had no problem watching this one. So, six out of ten for spellbound.
