..GIRI, MISTER NOBLE DETECTIVE..

..wow, just wow..
.
..from the first episode itself, I find it so very interesting - indeed, Japanese are so very impressive on this genre plus the comedy factor (the rich detective, with butler, I remember Kyoko Fukada's Fugou Keiji and Keiko Kitagawa's After Dinner Mystery in one)..
.
..I do love the part when the deduction happens - the revealing part of Kizoku Tantei's part, the most funny part..
.
..I have a lot of things to share about this film, I do really love this one..
.
..I do appreciate the even the animation they put, the casts, good to see the same face and the new one to catch their other films too..
.
..overall, it is a masterpiece for me - the people behind this are so genius. . .BETTER WATCH IT GUYS
.
..*BRAVO~!!*..

..Glass Of God..

..so this is my first time to watch Misaki Aiba's film..
.
..and good thing to see again Shihori and Nobuaki..
.
..I've done reading the manga, but good thing I didn't remembered a lot of details, since I don't want to compare from these two..
.
..I really enjoy it, though not a drinker but I love how they pick those drinks to mix until it gets done, even the history of that cocktail's name..
.
..I remembered also the film Madoromi Barmaid...
.
..the drama just right so balance with a very little love story, well, honestly, I didn't mind it at all..
.
..overall, it just a slice of life of how someone's pursue the current situation - a career..
.
..but as what the film says, it is "a way of life"..

..DEATH IS NOT THE END..

..argh, why it always the last episode is the saddest episode..
.
..as expected, as the plot says, that's how it ends..
.
..I can't help but to cry a little bit as minute goes by..
.
..I do love this drama, just a mixed of sad and fun part, every minute is so worth it - full of emotion..
.
..with a little of action and love story - but above all the love of family with a strong bond..
.
..and the ost from aqua timez, what to expect for its beautiful message..
.
..the Gokusen teacher from police investigator, I miss her so much, good thing for having this drama which I add as one of the masterpiece I've watched..
.
..this drama really teaches a lot of how our families, friends, co-workers, all people around us, even your pet are so important to share the love..
.
..with them, it also teach us to get know more of ourselves..
.
..the casts and staffs behind this made a beautiful drama which we need to treasure all the lessons we've learned watching this..
.
..I REALLY LOVE THIS DRAMA..

..Chime-to-Chime..

..first, like on comment, the story is same as School Cop where the students are involve in different crimes, also, it discuss here the different problems a students encounter - either they are the victims or the suspects..
.
..here, the money is the only solution to solve these problems..
.
..I do find the acting of all casts are all natural and impressive..
.
..not to tell one by one, but just my observation, that Aoyagi-san here is just a late-bloomer, her character progress is just too sloe, thinking that is she really part of the story, I see her but can't feel her (just the role not the actress)..
.
..good to see also the teenager years of Kento, Tao, and Alice and even Ayami..
.
..but then, what I really like the part besides the literal "flying and kick" are the part of these 3 teachers, the moment they speak it really hits a specifics person/s on the crime which they are involve..
.
..the episode is kinda long but all the scenes are worth it and must understand but thanks to UVERworld song as the OST..
.
..in the end, I find it just right, doesn't feel like, "I don't want to end it" or "make another season"..
.
..but still, like the other comments and reviews, I also love this film, so cool, so badass..

あらら！！

..this film is just my one of my list that I don't want to end. . .but it's a must..
.
..it seems like their acting is just natural and I am so impressed..
.
..love the ost too..
.
..I do browse some of this series, and I found out there's is nothing new in the casting, I mean the characteristics of each casts from the original members up to the latest series are the name - or should I say, a reincarnation. . .first time to watch Tsubasa Honda and Becky..
.
..I also give credit to Yasuda Ken, Miura Shohei, Masu Takeshi, and even Nana Katase..
.
..I highly recommended this since this film is so funny, no minutes wasted. . .like Haken no Hinkaku, I am not a fan of office / company genre, but it gives me a lesson on how to appreciate my work, my people, my surroundings..
.
..the treatment of the Shomuni is more worse than the "haken" in the film "Haken no Hinkaku"..
.
..I do love the role of Tsuboi Chinatsu, like an alpha-female, and even the other members too with different skills..
.
..Makiko-san if you can still lift the stepladder then make another series too..

..IRRASHAIMASE~!!..

..so it's only a 6-episode film, and no wonder - the less the casts the shorter is, I do watch udon soba from youtube and didn't expect having this film, so I give it a try..
.
..each episode focus on one character - a little touch from the heart so no tears will drop, light drama and I enjoy the story up to the end..
.
..the casts were all new to me, upon checking their other films, they are all new - I do love the opening theme too and their dancing skills is just a bonus, too cute to watch..
.
..their names are unique, taken from the colors and you will see them wearing it - I just noticed it when I checked their website..
.
..even the place, taken from marugame seimen..
.
..honestly not a fan of udon or soba though I didn't eat them once, only ramen..
.
..and upon watching this film, I think I will give it a try to taste them..
.
..love this film..

..HOLD UP!!..

..just watch the episode 2 or rather the 2nd part from the start is says a "special drama" so I thought it's a movie divided in some part. . .and based from the other comment, it says it only has a two-part episode, kinda saaddd..
.
..for me, it's says this episode 2 is the final part but then, in the last minute, it shows some scenes which I've not seen on the two episode - so I hope there's a continuation on it. . .but it's not..
.
..and the people behind this film are so genius, how the stories of each cast related to one another, just amazed, so love it..
.
..also, not a single minute is wasted, you laugh the scenes even the drama part..
.
..so I just enjoy this film, the casts, even the sound effects used, I remember Setsuyaku Rock haha..
.
..WHAT A MASTERPIECE~!!..

THE SUPER HAKEN

..to describe her in one word - TSUNDERE..
.
..I really don't like any drama which is related to work, or company since I, myself is an employee too - but when I found this and the comments, I try to watch and the first episode is kinda weird for me, can't imagine if this is really happened - since they already note that this is a fiction haha. . .but still, I give it a try and the second episode got me the interest to hooked on this and finish all episodes as fast as I can..
.
..here I see different workers with different personality, somehow what I like this kind of theme is that I can see all the progress of each characters in one episode which I observed from other film focusing only one character per episode..
.
..that haken with multiple skill and license..
.
..but somehow, I learn a lot of this, especially the beliefs of Oomase on having in the company - the way she do her works, the way she socialize with people..
.
..and I found her funny too, like my description of her on the top, the second episode starts me to watch it more..
.
..the serious one, like the company's enemy number 1, has a soft heart too..
.
..and as I browsed this one, good thing it has a second season..
.
..and the casting are all new to me but did a great act..
.
..I hope I will remember and apply what I learned from this Super Haken..
.
..(can't tell if this is a serious topic in the society too, about the temporary and permanent employee, I need to do some research on this)..

zzZZ

..first, the theme of the story is also same from the previous film I've watch about food or drink..
.
..it reminds of coffee, ikaga deshou, but here, this about serving, cocktails..
.
..the story of the bar on the wheels that serves regarding on the situation of the customers to feel them better. . .and the sleepy bartender too..
.
..I observed they more focus on Yuki, than the other two - I'm expecting some from them but it's not..
.
..also, the episodes. . .hmm just so-so, just right but the last two episodes the last customer's story is kind of not a satisfying one, what is the progress of that girl in the end - but, well, that's how they made the story after all..
.
..I do love the opening song and the three barmaid are all new to me and better to check their other films too..

YAKITORI!!

..first, the title itself is so easy to catch my attention that's why I watched it..
.
..even the casting too, like Sato Jiro (Mop Girl) and Rio Suzuki (School Cop) - these two are also my reason to watch..
.
..the acting of Sato Jiro is great for me (a versatile actor for me though I watched him in comedic role)..
.
..and Rio Suzuki is just too cute and she's the first cast I saw which is a left handed *teehee*..
.
..okay, on the film itself, even I is an introvert, I do relate on the story though I am not a student anymore but still applying those attitudes on my work..
.
..I do also familiar on some social issues the Japanese students encounter, like this one, being shut-in, introvert, unsociable people..
.
..it also tackles some of the reasons why a person's undergo on this - unacceptable by the society, child abuse, separated from parents, bullying..
.
..this film is a wake-up call not only for the Japanese but for all people who suffering from these - and I do learn a lot from this 5-episode film but too short for me. . .and I hope everyone who will watch this will learn to cope, to understand, or even love the people like them..
.
..also I observed, I am looking for some scenes that makes me satisfied for the development not only the main lead but all the students but it isn't..
.
..well maybe because they only focus on the students..
.
..this film also put some realization on the scene like the Corona Virus issue on their country..
.
..yeah, it is a rewatch one, but I guess, I will just keep the memories and my favorite scenes on my heart and on my mind..
.
..this film is a masterpiece for me..

BATTLE OF THE STRONGEST OL

..the fighting of fists and heels..
.
..first the line of casts is the number one reason why I watched this movie (Mai - on her long before before the series with Erika Toda, Alice, and even Eiko - and at the same time to see for some casts that worth to search their other films (like Nanao hihi) - and the 4 gays on the films haha that I used to watch them from films..
.
..yeah no minutes waste, it's a lot of fun and I found this on the fighting scenes - all worth it, not boring, so cool..
.
..I'm not expecting a lot on the visual effects it's just right yet amazing, even the music used - and that LiSA..
.
..(naahhh) - I try to let myself not to spoil but the part I like are the awakening of Nao's true identity, Ran's training (here I learned that one's real strength is based on your work's performance for the company), and especially the ending kinda but in the end still fun to tell..
.
..great and first movie I've watched this year..

..LET US SAVE THE REVEAL..

..whew, this series, for me, since I do love mystery/detective drama - it's a mix of different series like Mop Girl (which Keiko is the main role), Nemesis (Sho as on his main role too), and Fugou Keiji (Kyoko Fukada)..
.
..also, I do love the comedic scene from time to time which always fit from these two casts, plus the idiotic (sorry for the term) act of Kazamatsuri..
.
..but on the solving part, well yeah, some of the details as what the story goes, there are some infos that I can still follow, but some were not, maybe just the opinion of the butler and the milady that made me get lost on the flow..
.
..still I love the story after all, love the tandem, perfect genre for me..

..COMANDA PER FAVORE?. . .SI!..

..so far this series is the longest with 11 episodes I've watched..

..so glad to watch this, and I fully understand, though jdrama has only few episodes..

..it doesn't matter how short or long, what is important that they give so much attention on all of their casts - which I've observed before..

..what a headturner of problems on the kitchen..

..this is the 2nd series I've watched for Eguchi Yosuke (from Nemesis)..

..I do appreciate Kana Kurashina's acting (better watch some of her drama too)..

..also Yusuke Santamaria's other role too which kinds different for me since most of his drama he roled as a detective..

..and again, my new crush Seki Megumi (Hazuki) and Shibamoto Yuki (Eriko)..

..and lastly I do appreciate their Italian script too and I guess some of them really learnt how to cook..

..and the ending for me is unexpected, but I guess that's better way to end the final episode..

..I love this drama..

..THE SCHOOL CANTEEN CHEF..

..if my memory still right, this is the first I saw Amami Yuki's other role - though most of her roles are about detective..

..and for this one, I knew it fit to her..

..even the concept of the story where I high class chef instead of cooking for a michelin-star restaurant will go to school canteen to prepare some food that all the students will love..

..each episodes come with a problem and need to be solve on the kitchen..

..not to serious to watch, it has funny scenes from time to time..

..and this is the first time I watched Haruna on this series (reason to hooked on her other drama)..

..a must watch series, and maybe we can try some.of the recipes in our own kitchen..

..VACANT. . .EN ROUTE..

..START. . .RETRY. . .RETRY. . .GOAL~!!..

..another moustache image of Yutaka-san and the younger version of Masu (my latest series I've watch him is on Ichikei's Crows)..

..indeed, one's life has a lot of turning points and a choices to make and to decide - those will shape our future..

..every scene is a lesson, time taxi is not real but the moral for each episode is a learning process - it always leaves us a lesson to take time to decide and be accountable for whatever the result will be since there is no turning back..

..this series is a comedy too..

..like some other reviewers. . .episode 8 really touch my heart, since we are all family oriented..

..this series for me and for those want to watch this, you may choose any episode you want to start since each episode are not related to one a other. .EXCEPT EPISODE 10 haha..

..I do love the ost from aiko, who are there on one of the episode (like kyary pamyu pamyu from Mondai No Aru Restaurant)..

..better to watch the movie too..
