Kurosagi *heart*
So today, I randomly finished watching the last episode of Kurosagi. It's a pretty decent drama starring one of those pretty Johnny's boys, Yamashita Tomohisa (aka YAMAPI XD). If you're interested on the plot, you can find a weak synopsis on d-addicts.
Basic premise: Kid's father gets swindled and stages a family suicide to save face; kid manages to survive; kid finds one of the people responsible for the swindling and tries to kill them; said person taunts him; kid randomly decides to become a swindler of swindlers and asks the person he just tried to kill to sell him information on swindlers so he can extort money from them and then get them arrested. Six years later? Cue series.
XD! It really is very good, actually. If you can get past the HORRIBLY ANNOYING chick in the show that basically thwarts him every step of the way while also saying she loves him. What kind of shit is that?
But I really was happy with it. This is the first drama series I've watched whose ending I liked. The FIRST ONE. I've gone through a LOT of Japanese dramas (the latest being GTO, Gokusen, and My Boss My Hero) and this is the first series whose ending was actually enjoyable and made me smile. Every other one just pissed me off. Every other one. What shit is that...?
... anyway. I'd like to upload it, but each episode is some 350MB in size, and I think that even SendSpace limits you at 300MB, right? So I either need to find something that compresses REALLY well, or I'd have to split the files with hjsplit and then upload them seperately... that'd leave me at like 22 uploads (as there's 11 episodes) ... sounds like a big headache actually. I'm gonna try compressing it with WinRar and see how well it compresses. If I can get them below 300MB, then I'll definitely upload the episodes and make like a drama uploads page or something.
(In case you're wondering how I got them in the first place, my friend has a membership to a paid site that I downloaded them from.)
Next on my list of stuff to watch: Nobuta wo Produce.
(This is assuming I can find it. XD! That paid site I mentioned only has the first few episodes raw.)
