Day 11 - A drama that disappointed youA drama can disapppoint me in some different ways... it can be boring and slow (most of kdrama I tried watching fits this category... look at my drama list for titles ^^ ); it can be an adaptation unfaithful to the spirit of its original work (a book, a manga, whatever... titles like Honey and Clover, Cat

I love HachiKuroba original and i was disappointed with drama too, but i was disappointed with movie even more. I have to say, besy Hagu was Chiaki Ito from AAA in Taiwanese version. I saw only one ep to see how Chiaki looks in Taiwanese drama and she seriously was sooooooooooooo Hagu-chan <3.
As for Cat Street i liked drama version and as for Last Friends i really liked that drama too, but i thought last ep were weird too.

I instead this that Aoi Yu was a cute Hagu. But more than the casting, I loved the atmophere of the movie because I think it's the kind of slice of life faithful to the original manga.
I have no idea of a taiwanese version... I can't bring myself to watch a taiwanese drama, I always drop them.

Cat Street was awful, both in acting and story, nothing was related to the manga... and I had to force myself to even finish the first episode, so boring...

Last Friends is science fiction as I said. When they had their supposed lesbian with a desire to change sex... they jumped their shark and never came back.

Well, for me movie was only disturbing XD. And as art student i was like 'wtf' becuse i was really disappointed in "art" they made. As for drama it was created in more artistic way, that's why i prefer drama atmosphere, i noticed that while re-watching first ep.

Well, i really like Kimura and Katsuji's Ryo acting so i enjoyed Cat Street.

I'm AAA fan and i really love Chiaki so i had at least check how her Hagu turned out and i only watched some parts of to check that~~ But even looking at that pic i could tell she could be good as Hagu: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/62/2008TIBE_Day2_Hall2_MightyMedia_Honey_and_Clover_Signing_Guests.jpg

I saw that image before, but I can't judge an actor by his look.
I prefer decent/good acting and someone not close to its counterpart in the manga/anime than the opposite. Cosplay is for fans, acting is another story to me.

Well, i know Chiaki not only from this pic so i really wanted to see her Hagu :d

I think art is such a personal thing... I couldn't understand the art of the movie or the one of the drama, but I wasn't that sure also about some stuff in the manga... but I was able to enjoy the slice of life despite the fact my taste is different from Umino's one.

As for Cat Street... I can't say I think acting was decent... it was terrible to me. And in a story on acting this is hard to accept. Plus... even if I like someone's acting, if the story is awful... I'll give up. Like I did with BOSS (I loved basically the whole cast but still)
