Will reading your "book" solves the currently suffering people in Gaza?
I bet you don't care because they are not Jews!

The following reply isn't for you specifically but for those who might read the comment section in future.

Cease fire first --> allow humanitarian aids --> allow medical supplies

Then you can talk all you want with Hamas.

Stop blaming Hamas like Israel is naive and innocent! Is not like we don't know Israel is exterminating Palestinian and use Hamas as (obviously) lame excuse.

Stop genocide!

Don't forget, stop chasing out Palestinian out of their home in West Bank. Stop illegal settlement too! Stop apprehend random Palestinian just because Israel decided they are dangerous. Stop calling people terrorist just because Israel one-sidedly think they are terrorist. Who will audit Israel decision?

Stop these idiocy and you probably won't see the rockets on your Iron Dome!

I think the good think about this drama is how they tried to create awareness about the teaching profession especially in Private School in Japan, which is in way not much different than the overly romanticized salaryman. I also appreciate how they conveyed positive message in every episodes and the overall "stress-free" vibe in the drama.

However, other than that, this was a bit bland in the plot/side plot writing. Some of the message was too preachy sounded, and few felt a bit imposing. The characters weren't interesting enough to follow through, and the pace kind of remind me of older western series like Gilmore Girls, Scrubs, etc. which might not be a bad thing for others but me. I rated this high simply because they tried to focus on non-formidable teachers unlike the typical school drama.

It's scary to see the number of "like" on his comment though. It tells us how much the hypocrite silent majority supporting Israel even after like 40000++ innocent people died in Gaza. What a sickening people!

"Hamas hides under hospitals and in civilian residential areas to get as many Palestinians killed as possible in order to make idiots point the finger at Israel."

And Israel had to bomb the whole civilian just to kill the few hiding Hamas so that Israel will be labeled as the bad guy as what Hamas want? Wow what a great logic man!

Not to mention the Geneva Convention.

At this point, Israel try to fool everyone as if they have no choice but to do what they did. And if they look like a bad guy it is because Hamas trapped them to look like a bad guy.

Yeah its easy to blame Hamas.

What Parents you're talking about? You think the Palestinian kids who died don't have parents? Are they less noble than the Jews?

EDIT: Just FYI Ismail and Israel (a.k.a. Yaaqub/Jacob) are Uncle - Nephew. Ismail and Ishaq/Isaac (which is the father of Yaaqub) are both sons of Abraham. The name, Israel is good but the country Israel is not.

In the context of this drama, Izmael is obviously referring to Israel. No question about it and SK probably wouldn't know the family relation between the two.

Thanks for this reply. I hope it will clear the accusation and slander. There is one more earlier comment further down (which is not deleted). Not sure if it's by the same person, but I hope random people who read this will keep this response in mind when arrive to that comment (if they're going to dig older comments).

Sorry if this sounded rude but Israel logic:

Other people attacking Israel = wrong, unlawful, terrorist, anti-semitic

Israel when attacking others = self defense, lawful, targeting only terrorist (while hundreds of innocent people died along the way)

The more interestingly, even the Israel don't give a damn about their people who became hostages. Otherwise they would have agreed to cease fire long long ago. It's been more than a year and they still blame Hamas, while what they do is bombing that could potentially hit hostages.

Hi Aria long time no see and thanks for replying but sorry for my late reply.

My response was for the (now deleted) "provocative thread" opened by the user @JennyPark.

She was reported for doing spam on another drama too, and there were record of her making anti-Islam remark on other drama comment page.

I was simply suggesting for anyone to ignore that provocative thread if you missed the context.

Don't feed the troll. She's been anticipating the negative response.

That person is crazy. She/he has personal issue with Islam (you can look at other drama too) and trying to provoke the potential impatient users. Later when she/he get the negative response, you know the usual victim card.

I'm suggesting anyone who read this to not feed the troll and please ignore the thread as much as possible. Can also report if you want to.

That person is a troll. I already reported the hateful comments. Please do the same. Scary there were actually people who click "like" on that.

To be honest this wasn't great, but it was not really bad either. The first episode started off strong but few episodes after that felt a bit uncertain. Things eventually got better starting at Ep5, so you just have to be patient.

The only setback was the writer trying to associate everything with baseball game...LoL. I'm not baseball maniac so nothing really made sense to me and at the same time it felt like a self conceited writing....LoL

Other than that this was an okay-ish drama if you want to fill your spare time.

Thanks for your time, for tidying up the sentences, for making additional on screen translation, and most importantly for sharing the complete sub with us!

I guess it's a fair adaptation (I only watched the anime though). The first episode was too short, resulting in some emotions were not conveyed properly and felt out of nowhere. After that, it was all good. The rest of the characters were okay, but Aqua could have been better IMO. He was ON and OFF. Not sure if it's the acting or writing. Arima Kana character was the best.

Please use the spoiler tag

It's a good police drama (8/10) but a bit short in terms of number of cases...well considering this is a negotiation team, that's understandable. However, it still did not make me love Yonekura for some reason. She always been stereotyped with the same attitude, style, character, and surrounding...i mean how people affected by her (imagine female version of KimuTaku)....lol Not sure how I would have felt if I watched this in 2008 though.

I personally have no problem with the way they handled Harrison's character. In fact I quite like him, probably because he is not your typical villain who will bark but no bite. This guy is simply NO-NONSENSE. He will just kill without hesitation. And they also don't hesitate with the special effect. Blood splash, brain scatter, truck crashes the taxi scene, etc

I also have no problem with the way they didn't kill Harrison in the end. Although it's kind of predictable to have that Last Scene with Harrison on the rifle, go hunting. I accept that as a creative ending and no, I won't watch S2 if there will be any in the future....lol

I like that in this drama Yamamoto Koji did not have to show off his muscle...LoL and it's also nice too see how his character die in despair! hehehe

About the lack of backstories as many have commented: I think it was done sufficiently without dragging the series or even adding unnecessary filler episodes.

This one has a slow start. The first episode was damn slow and boring. It turned into better starting at episode 2 though. Suzume Mino was also in the cast but none of worthy fan services to talk about if that matters...lol

I'm not a fan of Netflix produced Jdramas but I think this one was okay.

Haha you're right! Those "tough childhood" backstories that usually came in the middle of series, are very Kdrama-ish and it's an exhausting trend. It should be stopped and banned already! LOL
