Gomen ne Seishun feels
The subs for the last episode aren't out yet for Gomen ne Seishun but I've watched it already and I miss them immensely. One of the best school-oriented jdramas I've seen. There's great chemistry in the cast. A quick-witted and occasionally silly story. And some great life lessons that don't feel like they're being shoved down your throat too much ( Read more... ) -
Let's talk 2014 FNS Kayousai: KAT-TUN
Johnny's idols performing debut (or at least their older songs) at the 2014 FNS Kayousai brought about many feelings. I was surprisingly hit hard by seeing KAT-TUN perform Real Face with just the four members.

Nothing beats Aiba Engrish
I've enjoyed the last two episodes of Aiba Manabu mainly because it involved Aiba talking to foreigners and we know how much of a hoot that can be. Of course, he didn't disappoint. Plus, I was learning some really random things about Japan, like how they invented flip-flops and instant coffee. I want that egg broiler thing, too.

Celebrating RuroKen with VSA
So, it's Rurouni Kenshin mania here in Manila since the movie came out and I'm celebrating it (aside from watching the movie countless times) with some screencaps of their VS Arashi appearance last month. I would screencap the entire thing if I could but that would be troublesome and annoying so here are just a few random favorite moments from the ( Read more... ) -
Wakamonotachi: The kind of family drama I can stand
With this one scene, I was more than sold over this drama. It has all the elements I love about the quiet family dramas. And the chemistry between the cast is amazing. Aside from how obviously I ship Satoshi Tsumabuki and Yuu Aoi, I am concentrating more on the relationship between the siblings. This is such a powerhouse cast that I'm surprised the ( Read more... ) -
That time when Rurouni Kenshin invaded Manila
So, this happened last week and I'm still not over it. It was an ultimate fangirl day. I spent the day at Glorietta from 10 in the morning to around 7 in the evening. It was insane. But it was so much fun! Sato Takeru is just as gorgeous in person as I expected him. Aoki Munetaka is the big surprise though. He is such a hyperactive charmer. He won ( Read more... ) -
The one where Sho talks to his 17-year-old self
I love reading articles that make people write to their younger selves. It shows just how much growth has happened in a person's life throughout the years. And this look back at the 17-year-old Sho is quite an interesting look at how he started his career with Arashi. Plus, I would have to say that I relate a lot to that desire to have someone/ ( Read more... ) -
Aiba, oh Aiba
I have always considered Aiba my niiban and so I'm partial to watching his shows. Aiba Manabu is a recent discovery and I've been loving all the episodes I've been seeing so far. I do have to thank luckysubbin for subbing the show so I can enjoy and learn a lot more. I really loved this episode about Japanese knives and all the care that goes into making ( Read more... ) -
That just happened
I know Brain Man is a relatively old film but it took me forever to watch it. I started watching it late last year but the first few minutes of the movie just freaked me out. And when I sat down to watch it again a few days ago, the effect was still the same. But I decided to stick with it this time and that was one of the best decisions I have ( Read more... ) -
We're really ending Hanzawa Naoki that way?
All that screaming. Of course, Hanzawa Naoki ends in a screaming match and without a happy ending. I had a bad feeling about Hanzawa being called into the Chairman's office. Well, I'm expecting at least an SP out of this.
