Sailor Moon has epic story, which everybody should know. It was my first anime and my first drama. Although the drama's plot is diffrent than animation version, I think it is good too or even better! All costumes are accurate to oryginal! Great seifuku!

I don't know what is the point of view other people, but I've always laughed when I saw the action live. It was very weak, but pretty well comedy scenes! It remided me Power Rengers' action!:3

I must tell... It's awfully crazy story with these twins. Really! I've watched it with pleasure, but sometimes I coudn't recognize where there was Jin-woo, where Jin-ho and what was the truth...

Yeon-yi! Who did she love?! Emmm.. At the end, did Jin-woo outlive...?! (a miracle?!)

Awww... it was intricate, gloomy, but interesting.

Emm.. btw. I cut out the all scenes with priest, because it looked like moment from totally another film o.O

Atashinchi no Danshi was one of the my first dramas, so I feel a small sentiment to this story. I've still claimed that it's amazing productiona and someday I rewatched it.

Chisato got the chellange and she persuades guys to herself every day. I don't have to hide, that exactly these boys encouraged me to notice this drama.

It is total crazy and long movie. I know, I know, we have consciousness, that creativity of Japanese naation doesn't know any limits, but in my point of view it is an extreme! Sex, church, family problems... All of that makes cosmic mix. I definitely dislike this plot o.O

It has really good start! The main character lives in The Kashaba Prince's world, her life is calm and quiet. Suddenly, appeared conceited TV star and everything has been chaging. After that, Chen Momo will be very annoying girl. I coudn't understand her behavior. I know, I know - the agoraphobia , but.. it was too strange. Hmm.. I was very surprised the role of Hu Yu Wei. I have never imagined him in this character... enough harmful character. The guy has probably total enought lollipops.

I have to tell about Yi Zhi too! He is very loyal friend and I like s character so much!

In the drama there are many memories and repeating the same scenes again. There were too much it a little, because I had to even rewind these moments.

And at the end... I praise the music! Fahrenheit always creates great OST!

It's strange drama. Practically, we don't know, what this story shows... Tragedy? Life? Blues...?! I'm not sure. I've watched it at all only due to Tegoshi Yuuya, because I admit he played well. His role was total nervous guy! Although, I like Yuuya so much, I can understand neither Kouhei, nor the rest of family and neven nor the the private teacher...

The drama is neither happy nor sad, but it is full of reflection. The 14 years old girl in pregnant... It sounds terribly. Miki gave a baby, though everyone has objection. I see her future in black colors, but who knows... I admit she had exceptional parents, who could accept that choice. Especially mother. An oasis of calm. It was very unrealistic, but finally - it's fiction.

In Japan, at least the abortion isn't forbidden, so there always exists a rescue answear this situtation. Maybe it's not easy, but there is always better to have a choice.

This drama really had been on the edge of my sit till the very end. It's one of those dramas where the producers throw you a twist in every episode, and for that reason I really liked it. The storyline was something I enjoyed pretty well, and the cast did a great job in making that happen. The music was great as i still listen to the songs sometimes. The rewatch value is pretty low since for dramas that are based off of twists and turns, once you already know what's going to happen, it loses the wow factor. Overall though, I'm giving this an 8, since this is really a top tier drama.

The Greatest Love is brilliant drama. Hong sisters didn't disappoint with this. Most of my friends by-pass this drama cause the leads aren't pretty boy like lee min ho.



If u really are drama fan then u going to love this drama. The plot is just amazing. Not one episode was dull. I couldn't wait to see the next episode. Their love story is refreshing and its interesting. You get to see how lives of celeb from the top celeb to the has-been celebs.



Also the chemistry from the leads are just hot hot hot! This drama is just amazing. There is a reason why celebs in korea are still talking about this drama.^^

This review may contain spoilers
To start off...I honestly loved this drama! The story is really unique and original and I fell in love after the first episode. It's really funny, filled with drama, and also heartbreaking in parts. This is the 2nd show I've watched that was written by the Hong Sisters (first being You're Beautiful), and so far I'm liking their style of dramas. Also You're Beautiful fans might enjoy seeing 3 of the characters showing up randomly in this drama haha (: (says so in the cast so it's not a spoiler...haha)



The acting is amazing! I originally watched this story because of Lee Seung Gi (first watched him in Shining Inheritance and loved him there) and his acting is really good in this drama! I loved him as Dae Woong, and there's no denying he's got one amazing smile (haha). This was the first drama I've watched with Shin Min A but I have to say her acting was done really good as well. She does a great job of pulling off learning things for the first time, and there's nothing bad I can say about her character. It's hard not to like her (: Now for the other guy, No Min Woo, it seems most people liked his character better than Dae Woong because of his looks. Personally, I didn't care for his character as much (only because I liked Dae Woong) - his acting was good though. The noona really got on my nerves in the show, but that just means her portrayal of her character was done well.



The Director and Dae Woong's Aunt make up for a lot of the funny parts in the show haha. Everytime they're together you'll find yourself going "Here we go" haha. If you don't like cheesy scenes, you might not like their characters.



The soundtrack has officially become one of my favorites! I love the music, especially Seung Gi's songs and "Fox Rain."



Will I rewatch this series? Not anytime soon (because there's so many dramas I wanna watch!), but I can see myself rewatching this show again down the road, it's become one of my favorites - I absolutely loved it! The only thing I wish is that it were a little longer, but I still found it great!



Overall - Watch it! (: If you're looking for something funny, sad, different with a great soundtrack and actors, this'll definitely be a must watch (:

One of the first Jdramas that I watched, and one of my all time favorites. The story revolves around 2 sisters, Shida Mirai and Yamada Yu, and Shida has to deal with her older sister's ridiculous demands. She believes that she is the only one who can see her sisters true self, an evil dmeon hiding behind a pretty face. Through constant mishaps, the older sister is dubbed "The ally of justice" even though her motives were just for self gain. The drama is meant to be funny and I feel that the actresses did their part(well, Shida Mirai's unfortunate circumstance and the situations she's put in makes it funny.) If you're feeling down or just want a quick and quirky laugh, this is a good drama to watch.

If you're a classic music lover, then I strongly recommend this drama. It is, as you may have figured, a musical drama. The facts, the phrases, the music... It's all real. I also really approve of the fact that they used real musicians in the orchestra (except from the obvious faking actors, of course). Big big thumbs up!



I have to say, the conductor really really impressed me. It's hard to copy the movements of a conductor, and he did a good job. He must have suffered a lot while learning, so kudos to him!



The acting is great and believable. The drama mainly focuses on character development, but it also has moments of relationships and drama as the "obvious couple" turns out to not being so obvious after all. Despite this, you still get your solid dose of music, which makes me a happy girl.



In writing moment, I have yet to finish this, but the 11 episodes I have watched were watched in 3 days. Not many dramas manage to capture my interest like this, and I am looking forward to watch more!



*will be edited*

I don't understand hockey at all but u don't have to understand it to love this drama. I was really supprized at how much I love this drama b/c of the sport that is involved. The story was really well developed. I loved the spacing of how the relationships came together and the conflict b/t the love interests. I really appreciate how it was not just about the main couple but the supporting couples as well. I am putting this 1 on my fave list & recommend that others watch it. I love that Queen is basically hockey music to me now. I will not be able to watch another hockey drama or movie w/o thinking about Queen. I think this was actually the 1st Japanese drama that I have watched that at least one male character did not dress up as a chick. I am happy to see the serious side of Japanese drama even though I laughed alot while watching the story play out.



There was only one problem that I had and that was finding links to actually watch the drama. One place I found the whole drama was www.watch-drama.com. This may help those that decide to watch. Enjoy!

This is a great drama!!!! I have already read the original manga and I'm pretty pleased. The acting is superb as well. You Must watch this!!! It made me laugh, cry and inspired me as well. There were many life lessons and I wished that I had a teacher like Onizuka as well.



Anyway, this drama is not one to miss!!!!

I found this movie to be alright. Maybe part of it was me being really tired while watching it, but I didn't get too into it. I thought the story itself wasn't bad, Kushimori's abusive stepfather comes back to live with his family and upsets the atmosphere, so he decides to find a way to get rid of him. The problem I had with the movie was how fast the events seemed took place. It says this movie is supposed to be a romance movie as well, but it's very little. The movie deals more with crime than anything else.



The acting was pretty good, though. Not the best but it wasn't bad. This was the first movie I've watched with Ninomiya Kazunari (from Arashi), and I think he portrayed his character well.



There isn't really any music that goes with this movie, aside from the song they play in the beginning and at the end. All other music isn't memorable.



I dunno if I'll watch this movie again, it's not something I really got into.



Overall, do I think it's worth taking time out to watch? I'd say if you have nothing else to watch, it's not a bad film to kill some time with. Maybe you'll get more into it than I did.
