Nice to meet you too :), then I guess you are a gaijin living in Japan?

I'd suggest Marks no Yama, Gonzo and Gaiji Keisatsu

OK, then I think Atami suits you well :)

LOL it also cracked me up. My favorite Satoshi Miki's work is Jikou Keisatsu though, it is much a light comedy but it can turn crazy funny. Super recommended for Satoshi Miki fans

This is a very good example of what terminal or disabling disease dramas should be made. And the ending is one of the best I've ever seen (I'm still shivering while I remember the ending)

oooo...sayang tuh kemarin. Kalo gath sih yang penting tune in aja, abisnya suka tiba2 aja, tergantung mood dan kesibukan anak2nya

ups maaf gan, gw kira cewe :hammer:

amanching mania mantaaaappp!!! strike!!!

Anyone who says GTO 2012 and its spawns good MUST watch this show. I'd say the Sorimachi's GTO is a world apart from the pale, soulless sequel that many MDLers proud of

Kalo SR berarti harusnya udah familiar sama istilah "Amanching Mania Mantaaaap" sama "Nonsense" wkwkwkwkw...emang epic tuh drama

Jangan lupa juga sekali2 eh sering2 ngomen di JDFB, apalagi kalo ada mau gath. Btw domisili mana gan?

Yup, nonsense jokes and quirky detail (which many of them are not closely related to the story itself) is his hallmark. Some may find them useless and even sometimes I said to myself "what the hell", but at second thought I find it funny. He is no straightforward scriptwriter at all so that one has to think twice to understand what he wants to convey.

If you want to find more Satoshi Miki's stuff, Jikou Keisatsu (and the sequel Kaette Kita Jikou Keisatsu) and Atami no Sousakan are worth watching. The former is episodic series, while the latter is focused in one story and has darker tone.

Regarding Ore Ore, I think this is Satoshi Miki's darkest work (though the 1st half is funny), can't imagine how scary it is if you are trapped in the same circumstances as the main character does.

Salken :)
Wah udah nonton Amachan juga, gimana kesan2nya sama tuh drama gan?

Finally someone in d-addicts lends a hand to sub this drama

Yes, Sekai Chuusin is indeed heavy and sobering. Love what young Yuusha did in the show, one of his better projects at his youth. However, your comment makes me craving to rewatch this amazing drama, it's been many years since I first encountered it back when I was in college.

I guess you find Ore Ore too confusing and eccentric (and it was super wacky), anyway have you watched Satoshi Miki's works prior to Ore Ore? If so, we can easily relate them each other because he has unique sense of comedy and not everyone can grasp his way of thinking. Along with Takashi Miike and Kudo Kankuro, he is one of the most unique director-scriptwriter in Japan today IMHO.

Thank you for the request! Anyway, are you Japanese? If it's so, then you're a rare one in MDL!

Can't hardly believe it was going darker halfway, perhaps one of the weirdest Satoshi Miki's works after Atami no Sousakan. Kamenashi's acting is a surprise, a big step up compared to his previous showcases

Thank you for accepting the request!

I won't say characters express their feelings by telling all the time instead being shown visually (such as nonverbal play and slightly more intricate dialogue) is realistic. I bet you'd hardly find someone spitting everything inside his/her mind like what happen in this drama (especially Tezuka and Oda), moreover it's Japan where verbal communication is not as abundant as other cultures.

I agree with you, the seniors are very-well portrayed, it's like coming out of the reality. Perhaps one last thing intrigued me is a relatively young pilot like Kunikida does pilot-in-command role instead of First Officer on a widebody aircraft. It's a rarity in real life AFAIK

ada si Silper, connie (falconnie), deim juga selain om anggers :)
masih pada dikit gara2 pada takut ngobrol sama para gaijin wkwkwkwkw

Mungkin foundernya sama, tapi koq nggak terintegrasi yah
