Just some of my favourites you don't have listed yet.

Majou no Jouken Takki's big break into doramas.
Some don't like it so much, but I also liked Strawberry on the Shortcake and Taiyou no Kisetsu

Summer Snow is already on your list, and I can really recommend that. I like Domoto Tsuyoshi a lot as an actor and the other cast members are really good too, especially Oguri Shun.
Another dorama with the same leads (Domoto Tsuyoshi and Hirosue Ryoko) is Moto Kare and I found the behind the scence look into the food court of a big department store really interesting.

For something really funny I would recommend Mukodono! (the link includes spoiler!). It's also very intersting in how it depicts the Japanese pop music scene and Nagase Tomoya is kind of playing himself.

Thank you so much for the reccs! I appreciate them very much. I will add these to my list...I just checked and I should be able to get all of them (not entirely sure about Majou no Jouken, but I'm optimistic).

Oh lucky, you got 1 Million Falling Stars! It's that one with Kimura Takuya, right? I need to burn some of my dramas to cds, so I can get more space in my computer and try to download more dramas.

I've been downloading 3 kdramas lately. Goong (which is in your 'to watch' list, and I do recommend it.), My Girl (The story entertaining, I love the main male character and the soundtrack is OMGSoGood!) and My Name is Kim Sam Soon. This last one I can't recommend enough... it's the best drama I've ever seen, hands down. I never laughed SO hard in my life... I just.. I can't put into words. The comedy is amazing, the love story is really really really good (I want a guy like that!!), there are handsome guys and believable characters. I can't imagine someone watching this drama and not falling in love with it. If you have the chance, please watch it! ^_^ It's just been some days since I finished watching it, so all I can do now is Squee in happy glee. After I watch it again, I think I can write a proper review ( ... )

Check my Kimura/Kaneshiro resource post for info on how to get One Million Falling Stars. There IS a group soft-subbing it, but I don't know how long it will take. I believe that episode 1 and/or 2 is out (I can't remember, because I'm not watching it until I have all the subs). Also, the episode batch is a HQ version as opposed to the horrible one that was available before.

Speaking of hard drive space - I bought a brandnew 300 Gig hard drive in April...well, it's more than half full right now. (!!!!) I need to start burning more stuff onto discs so that I don't run out of room too quickly. ;)

Thank you so much for all the dorama recommendations! I really appreciate them! If I can find sources for them, I will add them to my list.

WOW!! 300Gig?? I want one too! I have a 120GB one (actually, one is 40GB and the other 80GB) and it's not enough.

All the dramas I recommended can be downloaded from jdramas :) I think all of them are in HQ. Oh, and OST of 'My Girl' can be found in the memories too.

I don't remember if I mentioned it to you, but there's a website full of kdramas and jdramas... http://www.silentregrets.com and it has OSTs too.

Okay, I'm more pathetic than you think. I have THREE external hard drives. One is a handheld 80 Gig. One is a 250 Gig, and this last, most recent is the 300 Gig. The first two are nearly full, and the third is half full. Eeeeeeeek! I keep telling people, I don't want expensive jewelry - I want more gigs of hard drive! :D

Oh, that's so great that all your reccs are at jdramas! (Gosh, I love that place - it's a dorama junkie's heaven!)

And thank you very much for the website link - I'm sure it will come in very handy. :D

I'll have to check when I get home but I'm pretty certain I have an English subtitled version for a million falling stars / the smile has left your eyes. I'll figure out a way to send it to you depending on the size of it.

Awww, honey, that's so sweet of you! I think I will be ok, though. I just checked tonight and the subbers at D-addicts are up to episode 3. What I just recently acquired is a HQ raw, so once the subs are complete, it will be ok. I already screencapped the first episode (I couldn't resist!) and it looks intriguing, but I'm going to be good and wait for the rest of the subs. ;)

Btw...I have the HERO SPECIAL!!!! Raw, of course, but I'm uploading as we speak. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but soon. :D:D:D

I should really get back into catching up on doramas. I had a few that I wanted to watch while on break but never got around to them (despite 2 free weeks - it's crazy, I know!). Also started a few, but they just didn't grip me enough to continue. BUT, that said, I think I'll give in and watch 1 Litre of Tears tonight. Nothing like a nice crying session :)

Oh please do watch Kimi wa Petto. It's a crazy storyline but it's oh-so cute. Matsumoto Jun ♥♥.

Just to add in my own recs. I haven't seen it yet, but have heard so many good things about Sekai no chuushin de, ai wo sakebu / Crying Out in the Center of the World. Also - oh wait. I was going to say God, Please Give Me More Time but you've already seen it XD. And it's been a while since I watched it, but I loved Beach Boys as well. I really need to get my hands on that again~
