I'm on a watching stump (if that's what you call it). I've been trying to watch a new drama or movie but I just can't pick one I'd like to continue watching. As a result, I watched Orange Days again, because you know, Tsumabuki Satoshi announced last week that he's getting married to Maiko. And I wasn't ready! My shipping heart was still hoping he' ( Read more... )

Lol. That's totally ok. I watch dramas for my fav actors and idols too XD. I tend to watch my favourites' dramas one after the other until I find a new favourite. I call it having actor fever lol. Takeru was my first fever actually. That's how I ended up watching Tenno no Ryoriban. It was still in progress when I started it and I think it was like the 3rd drama I checked out. It was one of the best dramas I have seen. It's probably my favourite. The acting is good, the production is good and the plot is an emotional roller coaster. I laughed, cried happy and sad tears, got angry, was happy etc. throughout it. Plus, the food will make you hungry lol. You should definitely check it out. It might help you get out of that slump.

I wish I could be diligent in my Japanese study too. And it's sad in my case because I actually have the time cuz I'm in that limbo stage of recently finishing uni but not yet employed. I'm just so lazy haha. Subbing would be such good listening practice if only I could understand the other 95% of what they say XD

I've been watching those three dramas as well. ON is good and a little darker than usual. But it's missing something to make it an addictive show. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is cute but not without issues. Lost ID is a disappointment for me. It's not that it's all bad. It's just that I really expected so much more from the plot. I thought I was in for a super awesome suspense show that would have me captivated and keep surprising me. But it's not that. It actually made me suspense deprived so I have been itching to watch thriller dramas. I had been putting off Liar Game so I will probably start that sometime soon to get my fix. XD

let me guess... rurouni kenshin? :D I think I'll try and find Tenno no Ryoriban and maybe this this slump would end. speaking of Sato Takeru, I'm actually rewatching RuroKen because there's nothing to watch. XD

that's true! aw. you just finished uni? I never thought you'd be so young! maybe one of these days, I'd be getting subs from you. haha

I guess all those Lost ID "reviews" I've been seeing are only meant for Kei's appearances. XD because they're raving about it. I mean how cute and suspicious his character, Kusaka, is. XD ah, Liar Game, it's been a while. it's good! all the seasons and the movie. I haven't watched the latest one though, the one with Ashida Mana. because what is Liar Game without Erika?

Lol yes, I began fangirling Takeru after I watched the last Rurouni Kenshin movie. Actually I was trying to find the ending theme song and after looking up ONE OK ROCK, I came across videos of Takeru on youtube and drama clips. And so my jdrama love began lol. Of course, you could probably guess that Haruma Miura was my second fever XD.

Anyway, I'm almost 25 so I won't say I'm that young lol. Hopefully, I can sub someday. Mightn't be soon. I studied some basic japanese grammar yesterday and well it was slightly overwhelming. You really have to do a little at a time.

I don't know about those reviews. Some people are perhaps genuinely enjoying it. I would admit that I'm being overly critical but it's just because of my expectations. I'll probably rant about it when I write my thoughts on the other summer dramas I started. So you could look out for that then lol.

of course, I knew Miura would be in there somewhere. I actually found out about Takeru through Miura. XD

almost 25! that's still young (compared to me). and yes, it's quite overwhelming when you study a lot of Japanese in a day, then you also have to retain everything. D:

will look forward to that! anyway, thank you for recommending tenno no ryoriban. I'm on episode 3 now and I think I'll be able to finish it (finally!). :D
