The deadline for myself to finish the article is April 30th so All results must be in by the 23rd so i have time to compile,  anything after that date (EASTERN TIME USA) will not be counted.

I will then compile an article, with MY choice, your choice and MDL rating choice if it differs from these results.

You MAY do 2 for each category 1 Drama and  1 Movie, if you do more i will pick the first one so choose carefully : )

1989 -April 30th 2019 is your date range.

Wow this is tough! 

I prepare the placeholder first. Will add more nominations at other times before the 23rd. I may also change things along the way.

BTW what's the difference between Sit com and comedy? And what is considered as mature? 

EDIT: Done!! 

Note1: But some dramas that I voted don't have the particular categories listed on MDL page. 

Note2: Some categories are damn tough to decide such as friendship, family, slice of life and manga because obviously you would find most (but not all) jdramas are combination of these categories.

Note3: I don't vote movies because I watch very few of them.

BTW what's the difference between Sit com and comedy? And what is considered as mature? 

Sit com to me is formulaeic family (usually) drama with issues resolved evry episode, usually involving embarassing situations the MC must endure for the sake of "comedy" (situational Comedy is what it is short for)

Comedy hmm best for me would be examples: Kyou kara Ore Wa!!, Hana Kimi, and Mole song movies.  You could lump gintama in there but gintama hits so many tagas/tropes it gives me a headache lol.

Mature: Examples Snakes and earrings and Call boy both invovled attitudes about sex but I guess anything the US would rated NC-17 but below XXX. So no porn lol

Thanks for clarification! I always thought the sit-com is the opposite for stand-up LOL

And how about mystery genre? It's not in the list.

Thank you to those that participated, the article became very list-y so I added a link to this post rather than add to it.  It has been edited once already.
