You have reached birtman's journal. Here you'll find entries about my thoughts on Japanese dramas and anime - which are quite ridiculous. I always use an LJ-cut, so you can easily ignore those posts.

List of Dramas I've Watched
Since 2005 I have watched a ton of dramas from Asia (Taiwan, Korea, and Japan). Here they are, complete with my ratings.
Dramas that have a link take you to a post with my thoughts on the drama (not reviews) .
