High five back! You should definitely watch Watashi ni Unmei because I just watched it yesterday after the recommendation haha! The plot is nothing special but it made me fall in love with him again! Another stellar performance from him and Tabe since they made the plot seem so real and the characters sympathetic even though it was just plain shoujo or kinda shallow.

Not a fan of Cumberbatch, ey? Haha that's okay since Issei is more conventionally good-looking than Cumberbatch who has alien-like or super unique features. I don't know Mikkelsen, but I compare Asian actors to both Asian and non-Asian actors all the time and vice versa since I watch a wide range of shows from probably 6 countries or so all at the same time. That's probably why my language skills are messed up now when I hear and speak too many various languages everyday lol.

Late in the game here, but may I just suggest Quartet? That's when I became his fan, and it's one of my favorite dramas! It such a special drama to me that I even made a recap for the first episode when I don't really write recaps lol.

And btw, I was thinking the same thing while I was watching the whole drama because he's so like Benedict Cumberbatch -- odd looks but infectious charisma. For some reason, those crinkles or wrinkles of his are like the equivalent of dimples and face muscles to me lol. Dude is using love potions for sure to make us go gaga for him haha.

After watching bits of episode 1 and skipped to the last few minutes of the last episode, I understood the whole point and lesson of this story:

If you turn on your alarm, then your phone will ring. But if you turn it off, then your phone won't ring. Genius!!!

Eeeeh!?!? Eeeh? Maji des ka? Ayase Haruka and Kora Kengo are here but no comments!? Go watch it people since it's already subbed!

Nothing has been similar to Heartless City after it aired. Nothing. And I am so disappointed because I can't name any good Korean or Japanese action drama lately. Although I am happy that somebody remembers that awesome drama. If you have seen anything like it, please recommend it/them to me (=

I think I've heard about it and knew they were starring in it but didn't get to watch it so forgot about it. Thanks for mentioning it 'cause I'm off to watch it haha!

I'm glad I helped a fellow drama fan haha. The sad part is, there's really nothing like it )=

It is in line with her character though. She's a very objective person through and through. You would think that she'd be the one who would be the most bias in the room given that she was the only woman in her department and the case was about a serial rape case against wome. But it was only her alone who was focused on the job or case, and kept her emotions in check when all her male co-workers were giving up on the case. That doesn't mean she's not human though. I love the part that they showed us at the end that she was releasing all her pent up anger or emotions. She was a complete professional until the end and only allowed herself to react when it was all over. To me, that was a perfectly executed scene -- how everything just played out: from being calm and collected during the entire investigation to just letting herself go at the end of it. It was very satisfying as it mirrored how some of us felt: frustrated but powerless.

I do believe that humans or civilians can't play gods and decide what to do on anybody's life, that's why we have laws and ethics. I mean these laws and ethics are not perfect, thus, the conflict about the kid brother's case. But hey, they exist as some sort of guide, so we can lessen barbarians in our society. Or at least, try to control them.

Of course! As a fan, who even kept his photo in the wallet back in elementary, I would know a lot of updates about him 'til I become old and gray lol.

Haha I like the sound of that but we're so gonna get hot water splashed on us if this is real life.

Aaaah Hiro Mizushima. One of my first crushes and he retired early. Well, I'm happy though that he seems content being a dad and husband. He looks like a great family guy.

Lol, it's like we're making up a spin-off for Hana Kimi! (High five.)

True. Thanks for actually giving me an opinion not a sarcastic comment. Different people, different way to cope and adapt.

Haha it looks like we are the only ones on the same side for this debate. I wasn't even team anyone, but some assumed I was and made them bias. I'm still looking for that comment who can show both sides of the spectrum.

And, I'm a ma'am but not that old to be considered that kind of ma'am lol.

Uh, I did mention something about best friends being more special than lovers or spouses in my other comment? I was seriously asking for opinions, so if you want to be sarcastic and call somebody stupid in several different ways, you replied to the wrong comment. I don't think there's anybody here who doesn't know what friendzone means. You don't have to be the urban dictionary for us.

I understand and some of your points make sense, but logically speaking, two years is long enough to forget someone and move on, especially during the period of transition to adulthood. I don't know about others, but when life happened to me, priorities like, job, college, and finance overshadowed relationships, whether that's related to friends, family, etc. Therefore, during those hard times, if there was a person who grew up with me and who saw and shared my ups and downs, I would truly feel that that person is more special than that person in the past who was once special to me.

Well, who said lovers and spouses are more special than best friends, right? Yup, cheers.

And having your phone next to you to complain to people like you doesn't help as well! Lol.

Riiigghhht!?!? Riiiiight! I was just hoping that they didn't make the whole situation draggy and pitiful. I mean everything was tolerable until they showed those flashbacks to put a sword in the heart and to put a rock in the brain.

Yes, and the Reply series and Hospital Playlist. Believe me, I've been watching dramas way before tVN even existed and they didn't run this long.
