Those are also my favorite Takuya's doramas too!!! (although I also like Pride, but mainly because it was the very first one I watched!) Talking about Takuya's character and about the rest of them, the story and everything, koalathebear is right, if you like Takuya, you must watch Good Luck and Long Vacation!!!

I truly recommend them!!

The fansub 'work' really amazes me. Those people work so hard to get the English subtitles on!!! It really annoys me that later on some people tries to sell those unofficial versions at ebay claiming them like theirs and getting monetary gain with them...

Another different thing is the free sharing between friends ;) btw ;)

I'm angry about those people as well who try to make money from the dvds!!! People spent a lot of time and effort providing it for free. It's true that they put a little message on it saying: "Did you pay money for this? You can get it for free from JTV etc" but by then it's too late!!! People have already bought it!

Anyway I was very thankful for JTV because I suspect some of the jdoramas will never, ever be translated into English so this is the only way non-Japanese, non-Chinese speakers can ever enjoy them!

I can always count on you to spread the Kimura love, dearest :)

I can't explain why I love Kimura so much in Good Luck! He's just so nice and good and well-meaning. His relationship with his dad is so cute and I just love Shibasaki Kou as Ogawa. They both totally look as though despite the arguing they just want to rip each other's clothes off ;)

Did you ever vote in my When is Shinkai cutest? poll? I was so torn .... white shirt ... first thing in the morning ... doing the gomen nasai gesture????

*laugh* OK that thought might have crossed my mind once. Twice. No more than three times ;) I actually love Kimura with short hair although I know the long haired look is cute. He looked 'ugliest' in Beautiful Life and I wasn't a big fan of his tight shiny outfits in Engine.

Hey, thanks dear. I got the first one started this morning, but I don't know about the second. Last I looked it was telling me 62 days. Huh.

62 days? Good grief. In any case - just download as a back up :D My dvd burner is still having a spaz so I am pursuing contingency measures ie. my brother's burner :D
