Are there any jdrama/movie fans here? .clap.

I've watched a few and will still watch more.

Here's my really short list:

Jdrama

My Sassy Girl - stopped
The ever Famous - One Liter of Tears (I did cry more that one liter)
Hana Yori Dango - will watch
Nodame Cantabile - interested in watching

Jmovie

Taiyou no Uta - because of YUI .shy.

I'm open for recommendations.

Hihi HYD's my first and will always be my favorite JDrama

Depends what genre ur into hmm...

If you want comedy, Hanazakari no Kimitachi e's a classic, followed by Stand Up! (This is a story of 4 guys tryin' to lose their virginity lol, definitely one of my faves), Nobuta wo Produce was pretty popular as well (2 guys literally producing a loser of a girl to become the most popular in school)

Other Notable Comedy:
Mei-chan no Shitsuji
Atashinchi no Danshi
Yamada Tarou Monogatari

If you want heavy drama, there's this jdrama with a dude who's half-filipino living in japan (warning: discrimination, but depends if ya have an open mind .uhuh. ), Bambino (a rural cook starting out small striving to make it big in the city as a chef, but er, obstacles await him, if ye like watchin' hell's kitchen this could be the JP version .chesttap. ) Another good title would be Maou, it's about a dude seeking revenge against a certain individual who bullied and killed his only sibling during highschool, but the irony is that that particular individual's tryin' to turn his life around by serving as a member of the force (detective); the main character has the sort of Light Yagami/Lelouch feel as he is more of an anti-hero.

Other notable Drama:
The Quiz Show II [This one's ironic, it's filled with comedy but storyline's heavy in drama]
Gokusen I&II [III wasn't as good as the first two, prolly the reason why it was the last lol]
Ryusei no Kizuna

If ye want heavy romance, I'd definitely recommend Hanadan, BOF has nothin' on it .bleh. 2 seasons plus a movie to finish it off. Usually romance is sprinkled on other genres esp. in comedy, so i couldn't recommend anything PURE romance, happy watchin' .clap.

Last but not least, Crows Zero and Crows Zero II are a must-watch, trust me, it puts shounen fighting titles like gokusen to shame .lol.

Watched a few of those, still plannin' on watchin' other classics like 1 litre >.< (it's hard to balance anime and jdrama =_=")

Usually tho I select dramas i watch when the lead's one of my fave celebs hihi, so sometimes i dont pay much attention to storyline when selecting, i only appreciate the storyline as i continue to watch .uhuh.

@mc

The movies hmm; Boku wa Imouto ni Koi wo Suru, i watched that coz the 2 main actors are quite popular (nana eikura and jun matsumoto), it err.. it's better if u watch it with an open mind .ehem.

I haven't watched the rest of em but i can recommend the ff jmovies i watched for the past 2 years:

Linda Linda Linda
Story of a female rock band [Scandal Vibes .omg. ] It's got popular actresses kashii yu (ye mightve watched her from Yukan Club and the 2nd detective conan drama special) and aki maeda (battle royale)

Azumi 1&2
This one is set in a time of ninjas/assassins, really good cast, it's got aya ueto, oguri shun, joe odagiri, hiroki narimiya and ishigaki yuma

Suicide Song
This one's cool, title's self-explanatory XD

Battle Royale 1&2
(You've prolly watched that already lol, first one was good, second one's okay)

If ye just wanna get into some movies for some hot girls:
The Machine Girl
Oneechanbara
Yoyo Cop Girl

The rest in my list that i watched durin' my earlier years u prolly know already (titles like suicide club, shutter, one missed call series etc etc) XD

Hmm from that jdrama list, I'd say i can recommend buzzer beat and nodame cantabile (the latter i saw recently in a poll for most sought drama to have a sequel) XD

.omg. .omg.

oh, yeah....I've watched both Azumi and both BR movies...forgot

nikid wrote:oh, yeah....I've watched both Azumi and both BR movies...forgot

whoa, cool .clap.
i think ye shud recommend a couple movies yerself, how long have ye been watching jmovies? .wow.

wew i see another maki-chan fan ^^
here's my list:
-battle royale 1&2, i like the first one, good storyline, good acting, i think because its a manga adaptation.
-kurosagi, i've read the manga, and i thought that this guy is kinda cool. the show hooked me up with yamapi and maki-chan
-Death note (change the world sucked though)
-long vacation
-old jdrama starring kyoko fukada, cant remember the title, the story is about siblings love
-i'm interested in gokusen after reading the manga, havnt watch though.

@yagiza: yeah, yeah....im a HUGE maki-chan fan but first time i saw her was about few months ago...not that much .shy. but already a super fan .chesttap.


@BasHanada: hmm....not that long....about a year or so.....first i only watched anime, but about a year ago, i start feeling watching jmovies and jdramas

First one's okay (coz it's inevitable to compare it to manga so cant avoid some disappointment there XD), second one's the funniest and most colorful of em 3, third one's bad coz its like, they recycled material from the first 2 seasons XD

@nikid
Ohh, cool, do ye also watch Kmovies (they also got lotsa pretty good stuff :D)

Heso...!!!

gokusen is great..but my favorite is NOBUTA WA PRODUCE...gurararara!!

Nobuta wo produce was nice. Love the girl!
One pound Gospel starring one of the guy in the band i like Kamenashi Kazuya
Stand up!

i love japanese movies too
like battle royale, dororo, great yokai war, exte.. one missed call 1-3 =D

I love Ryuhei Kitamura movies, they are absolutely kick-ass! .punches. "Versus", "Aragami", etc.
I also like this one film by Junzo Itami, it's called Tampopo; really funny and introspective film about the joys of food and life
Akira Kurosawa films are great, The Hidden Fortress is a sentimental favourite of mine

Anybody watch Lunch No Jou (Queen of Lunchtime)? I love this show a lot, especially Yuko Takeuchi and Satoshi Tsumabaki, they're so cute together!
I love Love 2000, Shomuni (aka Power Office Girls) and Team Medical Dragon (both seasons rock!)

yeah, i saw LIFE...i loved it....how could i forget that?! xP

Yeah, I liked LIFE but it was really heart-breaking and I teared up at some of the scenes too but it's a great drama overall. Anyone here a fan of Nobuta wo Produce?
