I had the highest grades in French 1-3 in high school and then I went to McGill Uni which is located in French speaking Montreal. Guess how much French I speak. Practically none! I just know basic stuff like hi, bye, excuse me, and that is it. It is pitiful. So needless to say, I feel your pain.

Slowly but surely the subbing is progressing. I think I feel especially impatient since I've been waiting for this drama to be released since October. Normally I am a bit more patient but this time I have been checking at least twice a day. Lol.

Ha ha. Ditto. One of these days I'll learn....hopefully....

I loved Open City- especially the romance between the gang boss and the detective. Does anyone know of any dramas/movies where there is a similar kind of romance between a 'good' character and a 'bad' character?

Did they really delay it until March!?!? Is this normal for chinese dramas??

It is rare to see so many Japanese dramas reviewed since Korean dramas are so much more popular. I'm a big fan of Japanese mystery dramas so I found this list very helpful. The Long Goodbye looks particularly entertaining so I shall start with it. Thanks Cheer!

Does anyone know where else to get the drama since d-addicts took down the torrent section of the site?

I loved Kou Kou Kyoushi- both the dramas and the movie. I also loved Majo no Jouken. I'll have to try out the others. I love Hirugao but it is such a long wait between episodes (at least it feels like it :) ). Since I am very picky about dramas, it is hard for me to find ones that I truly feel passionate about.

That is disappointing....I think about watching Koi from time to time. Is it really good? The prospect of an unhappy ending and a menage a trois keeps putting me off.

I've watched part of Secret Love Affair and really liked it. Since Dousousei has Iura Arata, I think I'll watch it. I loved him in Mitsu no Aji (I'm a sucker for 'forbidden romances' if you couldn't tell). Thanks for the recommendation. :)

Does anyone know of any dramas similar to this one?

I don't know. His actions at the end of ep 7 seem to suggest that he may become that kind of character. Yes! Rikako and the artist make such a great couple! Their scene at the end up ep 7 was soooo sweet! I don't think either Rikako or Sawa should be with their husbands. I don't understand why they are so adverse to getting divorced. Sawa's husband was obviously emotionally scarred by his dad's affair and has never gotten over it. Rikako's husband is so shallow for liking Rikako only for her looks. Ha ha. I'll end my rant now. :)

Of all the actors that have played Kindaichi thus far, Yamada Ryosuke is definitely my favorite. He pulls off Kindaichi's playful (and often immature) yet compassionate (and mature) personality to a tee. I'm am glad to see one of my old favorite detective shows revived.

Watch it on drama.net- it has up to ep 3 and the subs are synced.

Not godiva but it is under "Steal My Heart."

For some reason, I often mistake Ha Ji Won for Kim Ha Neul and vice versa. They look very similar to me. Am I just blind?

Is this being subbed by anyone? It seems like it is going to be quite good.
