AGREE! This drama made me realise how pretty she is. Short hair definitely doesn't do her beauty justice.

I don't think the recommendations listed are anything similar to this drama LOL. If you guys want to check out something that comes closest to Run On, watch Uchi no Musume wa, Kareshi ga Dekinai! (though I'd argue that the latter is even better) The character dynamics & interactions are interesting and the chemistry between the entire cast is crazy. The dialogue is witty, sensitive & progressive. The 4th wall breaking comedy is GOLD as well.

The squid dance routine is the best thing about this show so far. I've seen a lot of J dramas with these awesome dance routines but it's my first time seeing a K drama with one! Hope we'll have it in each episode :)

Wow hello there! I see you on a lot of the J dramas I'm watching these days. Check out:-
Ikebukuro West Gate Park
Soratobu Kouhoushitsu
Attention Please
Engine
In This Corner of the World
If Talking Paid
Soredemo Ikite Yuku [this one is heartbreaking so please don't watch it if you can't watch something heavy]
My Boss, My Hero
Hanzawa Naoki

Will recommend more if you like these:)

Sure, watch these & let me know how you found them! That way I'll recommend you more stuff that are to your liking :)
I'm glad you're starting with Neechan! That was a PERFECT 10/10 drama for me. Also I fell in love with Hayashi Kento thanks to Neechan. He was like a teddy bear, adorable and sensitive <3

Urgh why do so many K dramas make all these poop/fart jokes! I don't enjoy their toilet humour.

Nope, he loves her as a sister. You'll find out why he feels so attached to her a lot later in the drama.

I LOVED THE FIRST EPISODE SO MUCH KYAAAAAAAAAA
They are so freaking cute together! *my heart*
This is just the fluff I needed. Show, bring on all the feels I'm prepared <3

I can't seem to find this with subs anywhere :(

This is the first Japanese black & white film I watched and I was surprised by how sexy it was. I enjoyed every minute of it. It was a beautiful film showcasing passion, jealousy and freedom that young people of that era were craving for. The ending was both shocking and fantastic! To think that the very same plot is as relevant today makes you realise that humans have not changed much.
Highly recommended!

Try these positive shows!

Uchi no Musume wa, Kareshi ga Dekinai [currently airing, witty, sensitive & fun]
Horimiya [currently airing, fluffy & heartwarming]
Lupin No Musume [action, romance, humour all combined in one.. wacky!]
Nijiiro Karute [currently airing, feel good]
Neechan No Koibito [feel good romance & characters]
Nagi's Long Vacation [slice of life, endearing]
Juhan Shuttai! [uplifting and positive]

I will recommend more if you like these :)

Sigh.. it's still being subbed :(

He was FANTASTIC in Juhan Shuttai.
And I just realised Eita & him are freaking brothers?! That's too much of talent and good looks in the family. HOLYYYYYYY

I don't know what implications it will have on Kurumi/Hibiki's relationship, but both of them seem to have changed. Kurumi's walk, and the way she offered herself to the doc. I'm sure the side effects of the research being done on her will cause psychogical changes in her as well. Hibiki killing the abusive guy ruthlessly & admitting that he's not even sure of the difference between right/wrong. By the time they meet, I wonder if their relationship will still be the same. I hope the show will explore this angle.

Oh wow same! I switched majorly to J dramas last year too though I was watching some of them on & off over the years.
Like when it comes to J dramas I will click & give almost every kind of genre/story a try but for K drams I am extremely selective & will take my time to choose if I want to give it a try or not.

EXACTLY!!!

Welcome to the J drama fandom LOL. It's like that on pretty every J drama page. Everyone lets everyone express their opinion. If someone doesn't like the drama, it's ok we move on. No need to defend or force anyone to like it. I'm not saying all K drama fans are like that, but I see majority of fights happening in the K drama fandom.

E5 was HANDS DOWN the best so far, especially on the writing front. There was a lot of retrospection that happened, and you can see the shift happening with the various characters (the little girl, Hibiki, Kurumi, Korean guy, sister). They're no longer talking morals. They're talking survival.
I can see this becoming intense in the 2nd half. BRING IT ON!!!
I've said it before but I can't help it. The cinematography and OST is fantastic, it just elevates the show to another level.

Hello. We meet again!

I'm pretty sure that Kurumi & Hibiki won't meet until the last few episodes of the season. Doc brainwashing Kurumi confirmed that, he needs her to be devoid of emotions so that she can focus on the research. So I'm pretty sure he won't let Kurumi/Hibiki meet anytime soon.

I don't know what implications it will have on Kurumi/Hibiki's relationship, but both of them seem to have changed. Kurumi's walk, and the way she offered herself to the doc. I'm sure the side effects of the research being done on her will cause psychogical changes in her as well. Hibiki killing the abusive guy ruthlessly & admitting that he's not even sure of the difference between right/wrong. By the time they meet, I wonder if their relationship will still be the same. I hope the show will explore this angle.

At the moment, Todoroki is just selfish & mean. But it's the doc and sister who are really scary. I'm pretty sure, though, that Todoroki would soon cross the line & join forces with evil.

Also, are you Indian by race?
