First off, I never liked Maki as Mizuki. She was far too girly and din't play the role well enough. I thought Acchan captured the boyish character way better. Her hair, her appearance, her voice, and just how she portrayed Mizuki was much more like the manga! Yes, I am kind of biased though because I am an AKB fangirl.
Next though, Nakamura Aoi was a far better Sano than Shun was. Although I love Oguri Shun, his Sano had no emotion. Nakamura Aoi's acting had far greater depth of character, which showed that he was a caring person but just unwilling to reveal that side. Shun's, on the other hand, was just completely emotionless. And having read the manga, Aoi definitely was much more like the original manga Sano.
Anyways, I'm going to cut off the comparisons there are just focus on why I liked it now. First, SAITO TAKUMI. Okay I remember when I heard they were making a remake, I immediately thought "OMG if anyone could live up to Kamikawa Takaya's legacy as doctor, it HAS to be Saito Takumi. And I was right. I mean, who else but Takumix could portray a gay guy that well?! This guy is the KING of BL movies!! He was absolutely perfect.
Shohei was sooo funny!!! Of course, Toma will always be everyone's favorite Nakatsu~ But c'mon! Shohei was just as ridiculously hilarious~ Plus, his and Acchan's connection was cute. Honestly, Acchan's connection with ALL the cast was great! But the part that made Shohei's Nakatsu THE BEST? His interactions with Tomo!!!! Okay like actually SHOMO

Most people are unfamiliar with the type of drama. It's a midday drama, so it's targeted towards housewives and stay-at-home-moms. It's a drama that touches on a variety of themes such as marriage, family-life, homosexuality, etc. Not only is it a moving drama, but it is also funny and entertaining. The best part is the cast though. Moriguchi Yoko is a powerful actress who leads the rest of the cast. Along with Kato Kazuki, who as usual is his sexy self. Then there are a variety of fun actors like Takagi Shinpei and Takagi Manpei, Mayame Akihiro, Amano Kosei, Wada Masato, and Kaji Masaki. This is a drama that I would recommend to anyone who is looking for something different and fun, but with lots of plot twists and a detective-style feel. Oh, and bonus, it takes place at a host club. How much better can it get?

it is just completely awesome and just perfect.
the cast is rele good with jiro wang as the lead again after ko one.
this is a drama filled with magic-wuxia action scenes.
it also has awesome music with the cast singing the theme songs and with music playing its own part in the show itself.
its a great drama that isnt just about fighting using special powers but also about family and love.
its the type of drama that while moving and also action-packed, has ALOT of comedic crack moments, such as a variety of comic-relief characters.
this IS my favorite tdrama, and i recommend it to anyone looking for a laugh or alot of attractive actors~

its a drama about embalming, which is extremely interesting because there are no dramas that are similar in the least bit.
i guess, one could say its like mixing a drama about ghosts and the deceased with a medical drama, but its SO MUCH MORE.
its so dark and eerie, but also has a lot of funny scenes.
Wada's acting is killer, and you can feel the emotions wrap themselves around you, pressuring your heart, strangling you even sometimes.
its soooooo good!!!!!!!
the cast is rele good, the development is rele shocking.
its interesting because there's an individual story per episode, but they all overlap in terms of mamiya's character.
its emotional, its dark, its eerie, its funny, it has romance
its one of the best dramas i have ever watched.
i recommend it to anyone who likes dramas like tokyo ghost trip or rh plus.
bonus! the opening song is one of my all time favorite theme songs >.<
is chohikoushounen/super flying boy's slide <3
BUT BE WARNED: this drama is rated for 18+ because it contains nudity in certain scenes.

if you like the kind of yankee, delinquent fight dramas and you also like comedy, this is the drama for you.
its rele rele rele funny and also has lots of cool action and effects.
fahrenheit/feilunhai being the leads is a total bonus too.
jiro wang dong cheng definitely shows an interesting side of himself here.
with a lot of friendship values as well as a hint of romance, and ALOT of wuxia/magic/kick-buttness, this is just an awesome drama.
i highly recommend it to anyone with a taste for wuxia, comedy, and feilunhai~
for me, it was a total KO.
