Betrayal and Awakening..!

Loved the ending, So adorable. Great drama, No more needs to be said. Its storyline was pretty much really obvious as we started watching it, But now I feel like it has become more widespread allowing more details and events to happen in the drama.



Romance, Betrayal.. Friendships broken. Hidden desires are surfacing for the old student.

Stalker...! Abunai!

Wow, Saya's stalker was truly horrible. Tetsuya risked his like in order to protect Saya and probably would have had to let it all go if it wasn't for Tatsuya coming to his rescue.



This episode, This drama.. Its improving by the episode.. The actors really did a great job..

Ataru Episode 10

Chokozai-kun!

I want Ataru to stay with Ebina :(. He did decide to take up the case of Ebina's mother's death, that should be interesting; particularly, because the father looks highly suspicious right now.

Trippin' out b/c I can't wait till 2moro!

Wow this is getting sooooo freakin' good! I am so happy they extended the drama to 28 episodes. This drama keeps me on edge every step of the way. I am so worried that Lee Kang To will get found out & then everything will end.But, the writers just keep the story going w/ some awesome excuses. 2moro can't get here quick enough.

Ataru Episode 9

Coma, maybe?

I'm glad the parents were finally introduced in this episode, they were different than what I had been imagining. The mother's emotional breakdown when she found out she was pregnant with the younger son was so realistic and bittersweet. I can't imagine what could have been done differently, in her shoes. Larry too, obviously concerned about Ataru and his well being, maybe a little too late, but I wasn't expecting him to actually care. I assumed he saw Ataru just as a government experiment. I wonder what this will all lead to.

Ataru+Ebina Forever <3!

I love how protective Sawa is of Ataru. I'm dying to know what Nancy has to do with Larry and what he did to Sawa's friend. Also did Ataru find that 'for hire' poster for the boy that couldn't get a job, to help him? If so, does that mean he's emotionally cognizant of everything thats going on around him and just unable to express himself? Oo that would be interesting

An Unfair judgement!

This episode was both exciting and irritating for me both at once. Allthough I pretty much hated Makato, His mother way way worse. She didn't know when to step back and keep her words to herself. It was clearly not Tetsuyas fault that that incident took place.



As for his classmates judging him for something his father did, That is just so far from fair. Its not like he can control his father.. And he was driving in a drunken condition. It wasn't even murder in reality. It wasn't manslaughter.. No, It was an ACCIDENT! Its so annoying Makato's mother in particulary looked down on Tatsuya just because of his father.

Sure, His mother wasn't present... But is that his fault?..

She got sick, That lady hardly have any reason whatsoever to speak with her son aswell as her own tragic behavior being like that...



Yep, The romance is gradually approaching now bit by bit. Seeing how this episode ended though it seems like there might end up being a love triangle. I certainly hope not, Because I really like both of the Tatsuyas.. Guess I'm doomed to be crying no matter what is done for one of them if it really takes on into that direction.



I am really happy that Fumie lost control there when she did, Everyone in the room seemed to be really surprised. Never thought that the richgirl really has it in her to loose control like just any other humanbeing.



Great episode, 10. I wish I could rate it higher.. but sadly, 10 is as high as it can go..

Definate Spoiler

Am I the only one that stood up and clapped when Ji An won the collaboration?!? I give this episode a 10 for that alone!!! The look on Jake?s...well, on all of their faces was priceless!!!

Tae Kang is too cute!!! Normally I would think his preparations are corny, but it is just too sweet.

Although they have misunderstandings, I think that Ji An and Tae Kang are good for each other. She is too serious and he is sometimes not serious enough. I think it is a good balance. At least his feelings for her are serious.

The writing and acting in this drama is really well done. I can?t wait to see what happens next.

Hilarious

lool that phone book! XD And I love You Jia's reaction when Ah Jie offered her some corn. This might seriously be funnier than Disney cartoons. But OMG the scene with all of them tied up - could they exaggerate this show any more?!? I knew it wasn't meant to be serious, but I DID NOT expect them to push the unrealistic side this much! XD How is this not more popular? It's an instant mood lifter. And I think I finally learned their names now! :)

Ankle's dad

So I couldn't resist. I watched the episode raw and actually understood most of it.

Amazingly good episode. The pace, the emotions, the dialogues, I loved it all.

You know when you watch a scene and you silently urge the characters to do or say something? Well, here they do! It doesn't happen often, and when it does it's such a satisfaction.

Terrific acting by the main leads in this episode. So many emotions expressed with the eyes and posture, and many incredibly sweet moments.



How they are going to come out of the "empasse" they are in now I have no idea. Which is more than fine: the fact that a drama not at all based on twists can surprise, goes to the credit of the writer.

I'm happy to have an excuse to re-watch the episode with subs soon.



P.S. Purplenette, I didn't stand up but I clapped too! That was awesome and very, very deserved. :D

HANAGATAA!!

Ooo 5 min left to the end of the episode, what should we do to shock and awe? Kill Hanagata! Omg I knew Tadokoro was acting suspiciously because of the phone call she received in a previous episode but I didn't think she'd turn out to be working for the corrupt secretary and shoot Hanagata!!

Is Suicide the way..?

This is definately the best one of all the episodes that have been this far. The boys and girls are finally starting to co-operate some more for things. Friendships are doubted and lives are put into risk more than once for Sayuri who wishes to finally end all of her pain once and for all.

Sayuri who for three years have been the 3rd place in the ms.catteleya contest, Who in reality just wants to be somebody completely different from what and who everybody else wants her to be.

WHO GOT SHOT?!

This just gets better and better each week! No exaggeration!! Not one dull moment!! It's amazing how Kang To is!! Even if they doubt him, his alibis are flawless!! Usually with these sorta dramas, they tend to lack solid excuses but damn this never fails to amaze!!!



The forehead kiss was sooo sweet!! Liking Mok Dan much more since last episode as she exceed expetation by decieving RaRa nun :)!!



The cliffhanger at the end?! Who the hell did Shunji shoot?!! Doesnt seems to be Bridal mask and he cant have shot his 'beloved' father?! I'm guessing maybe he injured his father? An injured hostage is a useless hostage sometimes...!!! Will be really interesting to see how Shunji and everyone else would react once they find out bridal mask is Lee Kang To...also anticipating when RaRa finds out!!

I almost forgot the hot sexy RaRa sidekick, typically in dramaland he'll be a excellent swordsman who might possibly be bridal mask's match...we almost had a chance to see his skills but i'm sure we'll see it soon



Ps I'm waiting for bridal mask to be injured (of course I dont want our Kang To die!) while saving Mok Dan fleeing and then she'll tend to his wounds and find out that young master is Kang To! I've got the whole scene sorted in my mind aha!! It will happen :)

Fantastic!

Not only is the story-line interesting, but the actors are great and the music works well with the scenes. I don't watch many Japanese Dramas, nor do I watch dramas that haven't already been finished. Rich Man, Poor Woman has me hooked already and I can't wait to see what happens next! Definitely plan on watching it each time the episodes are subbed online!
