Going Rogue

Takumi makes a fateful decision in his plan for revenge! The plot is thickening and starting to boil as his patience with "the system" begins to wear very thin and he wants to take matters into his own hands. This is crazy good.

burning out

Wow so Hornet's a snotty nosed kid that likes cheetos, or the Japanese equivalent, disappointed a little. I wanted him to be someone epic and interesting, maybe even cuter than Falcon- but no. I'm glad Brutus's child was saved, Kirishima was a bit of a dick to not let her see her son at least once but I guess it's a cultural thing. Otoya cannot die, he's on the cover image of the drama therefore he cannot die. I will spew bile if they kill off Otoya, they will not- but just in case.

A matter of trust.

This episode deals with trust. Takumi has been living in the Shin Ku's world so long he doesn't know who he can trust. And it is sad when he loses faith in his senpai on the police force and it could cost him a friendship. There are a lot of cute moments between Takumi and Yuna in this episode but by the end that trust is also called into question. These episodes keep getting better and better.

Explain yourself!

Even though it was obvious why Brutus was betraying Third-i, it's stll sad. Especially when they showed the panda bear with the laser gun trained on her son... I hope they don't kill him off like Aoi. I really don't understand the Professor's connection with Otoya's grandfather and I had thought that they were trying to stop the terrorists, but he seems to be a terrorist himself. I'm so confused. Also, why does J have to die? He's falling in love with his doctor.. it's going to be pretty sad.

I needed this kind of drama

This was seriously one of the best drama-openings I've seen, I really liked how you're thrown directly in the drama ^^ I also think they really suit each other, but I did think the whole episode: "What the (...) is wrong with this dude?" And still I couldn't hate Komikado Kensuke's character; he might be some egoistic jerk but he really made me laugh. I'm wondering how they'll surprise me next episode and I can't wait to watch it. It was the kind of drama I needed: funny, light and crazy.

No Title. :P

Wow, I like this more with every episode!



I'm really wondering about Mikio and if he'll play a big role. I don't know if I like him or hate him yet, but his entrance was pretty cool.

Too bad Makio's friends think Kazuya is his brother. xD



It's nice that he passed the test, too. I hope he won't fall for the girl next to him (forgot her name :O), she's so much younger than him. ^^''

Moving fast!

This episode wasn't as funny as the first one, but I'm glad it was more about relationships. Well, it's moving pretty fast right now, last episode everyone hated him and now he has 4 friends and a few people who like him secretly.



I also liked the last scene with his father. Seems like they missed alot when he was really in high school age.



The very last scene with the rabbit was great, too. xD

Funny, funny, funny :D

This is much, much funnier than I expected. Well, some things are a little overdone (I didn't like the pudding-scenes) but I laughed so much the episode was over in no time. :P



Hoshino is incredibly good looking by the way. And Sakurakoji (Jun) and Makio are really cute together. Guess they will become friends.



His assistant is so funny, too.



Tomoyas role is so similar to the one in IWGP here, even the name (Makio - Makoto), when he answers the phone I'm always expecting a "Hoooi, Makoto" but it never comes. xD

good but slow

The only reason I am not bored is because I like the bittersweet romance, and the characters, but it is clear that they are stretching this out. Not only is the story progressing slowly, but even the dialogue is frustratingly slow. It can take a minute to get out a complete sentence, or half the episode to reveal one thought.



I hate when dramas overstay there welcome and start becoming repetitive. I'm sure this story would have been a 9 if they fit it into 16 episodes, but now it's feeling more and more like a 7 to me.

Squeee!

I really missed "Wol Ah"- Kim Joon moments. It's been a while since I had a smile on my face while watching his romantic interactions. I couldn't keep my happiness from showing.



And Song Yi, dear drama gods, what does she think she's doing all by herself? That woman needs to be stopped.

Holy! It went there!

It seems like sometimes Asian dramas can tend to water things down a bit but I like how Rondo is more bold and brave. Takumi is trying to live in this world that he hates so much for his ultimate goal and he has to make sacrifices to his spirit in the hope to attain the answers he wants. This episode was exciting but also bittersweet. The romance is really starting between the two leads and they are sweet and lovely together. So cute when they are trying to communicate and touching even when they can't understand each other. This drama is dark, exciting and really lovely so far.

Dark and Light

This drama is mix of dark and light. Takumi's world when he is undercover infiltrating the Shin Ku is filled with dark blue lighting and black clothes. He is trying hard to find the proof of his father's murderer and bring down the Shin Ku. At the same time he has met a beautiful, lightly lost and interesting woman with whom he has a hard time communicating. There is a slight mystery of her past and what happened to her to make her return to Japan with bitter feelings about the place and people. This drama has a lot going on and it is all interesting! On to episode 3! I can't wait for the mystery to be revealed and their relationship to grow!

Aigooo

Honestly, has this stupid woman learned anything in the past 10 years? She's still as obsessed with Kim Joon as always. Thankfully General Kim is not as hot-headed and listens to reason. Aigoooo, she keeps making life difficult for him. If she really was in love with him, she would let him be.
