UNCANNY TIMING! I was about to come here & say that it has been subbed lol
Thank you :)

You should watch Uchi No Musume Wa Kareshi Ga Dekinai. PERFECT combination of slice of life, comedy & romance :)

BRILLIANT. Definitely not a movie for everybody.

Yes, it is super adorable! Sigh I will miss this show so much.

Nope, not yet. Planning to watch it soon :)
Tokiwa Takoko led me here, she starred in some of the most romantic & iconic J dramas from the 90s!

SAME! It's one of very first few slice of life dramas I watched & I felt compelled to list it here because it's a must watch!

IKR she was such a sweetheart. I love Suzuki Honami (the actress who played her) as well. HANDS DOWN one of the most brilliant Japanese actresses.

Cool. I love dark dramas too. And Japanese dramas can get really really dark. They don't sugercoat stuff. Tempted to recommend you some great dark stuff but I don't want to bombard you with recommendations lol. Let me know whenever you want more recommendations :)

Somebody please sub this!

Spoiler tag please.
As much as I hated that Rika was the only one who was left all alone in the end, I appreciate that she didn't end up with Kanji. The guy never loved her & constantly played with her feelings. She gave him all the freedom & did her best for him, but he betrayed her & at the same time tried to control her. He never deserved her.

Also Murakami Nijiro is a really good actor. These are some of his must watch dramas (even though he's just in support roles)
MIU404
In This Corner of the World
Cold Case

I'm also looking forward to Iki wo Hisomete which is gonna air in April this year :)

If you want to watch a good drama with COVID as a backdrop, check out Remolove. It explored intimacy & relationships in the time of COVID really well.

Oh yes, I enjoyed Alice in Borderland. If you like that genre, I can recommend more from that genre that will blow your mind :)

My fav J dramas this season were -
1. Nijiro Karute
2. Uchi No Musume Wa Kareshi Ga Dekinai
3. Tengoku to Jigoku : 2 Psychos
4. Ore No Ie No Hanashi
5. Shitteru Waifu
6. 35sai No Shoujo
7. Neechan No Koibito
8. Horimiya
9. Koko ni Ima Kara Rinri
10. Ojisama to Neko

PHEW that's quite a list. There are more, but watch these at your pace. Will be happy to recommend more from this season & just good J dramas in general :)

The community is so small that everyone keeps bumping into each other on the various drama pages & that's where we discuss lol. I am not aware of any group chat. You'll see me everywhere HAHA, esp on the J dramas that aired this season because they were all fantastic.

Not just this spring. The winter J dramas that ended recently were huge as well (in terms of casting + writers)
It's only beginning of the year & I must have watched like over 20 J dramas from this very year :0

High five!

While I agree that this drama has been disappointing, this screenwriter has actually written some really good dramas -
Osozaki no Himawari
Boku no Ita Jikan
Bokura wa Kiseki de Dekite Iru
Shitteru Waifu

Easily one of the BEST legal dramas I have seen. Sad that not many people have watched it.

I haven't finished it.. still waiting for it to be fully subbed :(

Just 10 mins? Ok I'll check it out.

Recent Taiwanese dramas that were good -
Wacko at Law
Adventure of the Ring
Victim's Game
