Funny and useful article, thanks!
All is left is to become a drama heroine...

Merry Chistmas to all MDLers, I hope everyone is spending/ will spend a very joyfull day with those they love. Hope Santa Claus will brought us many more good dramas!!

o tanjoubi omedeto, Aiba-san !

i guess you are talking about the japanese version of the last song of the french musical "the ten commandments" (song title in French "L'envie d'aimer", in English it means something like "to want to love" ). it bothered me since the end of the first episode, and spoiled a little bit the show...
By the way, I do agree, certainly the best of the three.

that's right (i was just checking right now). all is left are some fanvids with some extracts. i think we can find other stuffs on some chinese or japanese websites...

I was expecting not anybody else but you for this article! Good job!
I had a very complex appreciation of MatsuJun. My first drama was HYD, and, sorry to say, I absolutly dislike him in this drama (though I have seen the whole serie). I was fed up with him shouting all along the drama. I disliked him to the point I avoided every drama with him for more than a year. Untill I tried Gokusen (mostly because of good reviews and ratings). This drama changed entirely my point of view. i saw him shining and able to act. He is now, not one of my favorites, but an actor I like to see in a drama (as well as other Arashi members), like in Lucky seven. Kimi wa petto and Smile are on my PTW list (damn, so many good actors to stalk...)
Concerning the PV's, it's a shame. try some extract of concerts (+ you can see him dance...). imo in variety shows he is gaining in confidence, and is always so cute!!!

Very funny article! thanks a lot.
According to these criteria, IRL almost 99,99% of the men would never gain the girl ! maybe that's why dramaland is such a wonderful place...
I'm looking forward to the "guy" version.

lol. Btw, happy birthday!

thanks for the friend's request, and welcome on MDL! Nice to see other people who enjoyed Tumbling, one of my favorite drama as well. hope you'll enjoy watching drama as much as I do (with or without Nino)...

Kamenashi is the first japanese actor I "met" when watching Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (also my first J-drama). The first I remembered the name too. And don't worry, I thought the same about his eyebrows!! (in fact I thought that he looks closer to a girl than me who is a girl!!!). I've only seen him in YNSH and Nobuta wo Produce, where I really enjoyed seeing him team up with Yamashita and Horikita. Since long I am tempted to see Tatta Hitotsu no koi, but i always delay it. Maybe I will try it now. and maybe Kami no Shizuku ( Japanese male in suits are always so attractive!!) and Yokai Ningen Bem too.
I don't really know him as a singer, but I was a total addict of his song with Yamashita, "Seishun Amigo".
Thanks for the article and I like your style!

I like your pic of Sho-kun. He is just so... (bleeding nose, as used to say Japanese people). I need to see him in a new drama!!!

Hard to make such a list, thanks for your propositions. I cannot say anything about korean and taiwanese lists (I watch few dramas from this countries) but these women are undoubtedly beautiful. imo korean actresses are the most beautiful (contrary to men : Japanese are far more handsome in my eyes). Maybe because of make up and photos style, but they seem to belong to another degree of reality...
Of course my Japanese list would have been different(definetly with Maki-chan), but it makes me realise that there are lots of actresses i hardly know (or I hardly recognize). Before your article, i've never seen Inoue as a so pretty woman, but this picture is... I do agree with Kitagawa, though I hardly recognize her at first sight. I find her even more beautiful with her shorter hair in Akumu-Chan.
imo beauty can also depend on acting skills, by showing some expressions that are beautiful.

Happy bithday , Yamazaki-san. I've only seen you in Kurosagi and Ending Planner, but I really enjoyed your acting!

No one else could have wrote that stalker's guide... good job, man! I'm totally found of Horikita-san, my favorite Japanese actress so far. I like the way she conveys emotions, and I love the way she is able to make you feel both loneliness and strengh, without a word, in Nobuta wo Produce, where I first saw her. Unlike many of you, I found her far better in this one than in Hana Kimi or Atashinchi no Danshi, though I liked those dramas very much. And I fall for her in Tokujo Kabachi, her strong character makes her even more beautiful. I do agree, there are lots of beautiful japanese actresses, but she has that something very special that makes her shine. Though I'm a girl, I could fall in love with her when she is smiling. just my opinion, but she embodies the image fo the young modern woman, at the same time sweet, beautiful and strong. I need to see some of her darker dramas!!

Uta no Onii-san was OK, but I meant Maou and KAGI NO KAKATTA HEYA (I've fallen totally for Enomoto Kei!!!) And I do agree, he is really good, especially in Maou!

i sent you a PM so that I can comment a little bit my recs.

Hello and welcome on MDL!! Thanks for the friends request. Nice to see young Arashi fans here. I can see you're currently watching my two favorite Ohno's dramas. Hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Otanjoubi omedetou, Ohno-san!!! hope to see you soon on the screen again, as Enomoto Kei or in any other new drama!!!

Thanks for asking. as the Japanese say : Yoroshiku onegai shimasu.

I've only seen Ikigami, and I like what you have written about it, cause it sums up very well the very good points of this movie (which don't really have bad points, in fact. + Matsuda-san plays in it, so MDLer's have no reason to not give it a try!!!)
Secret seems really interesting, i'll add it on my PTW list. Don't know yet about the last one. Thanks a lot for the recommendations !!!
