J-dorama, Hana Kimi, Peach, and Maki-chan

Saiwaina. Happy ^___________________^

Yup. See that big smile.

Reason: I got (from my cousin) another batch of J-doramas to watch, and just in time for this week’s holy week vacation. Last December I’ve finished watching at least 10 J-doramas. This week, a total of 7 series to finish. Take note, that “drama” doesn’t mean it’s always heavy on the drama part. Most I’ve seen are comedy and suspense, with a hint of drama. And as a reminder to myself, I’ll register an account at Jdorama.com so I can post my ratings on the series I’ve finished watching.

Here is a list of the J-doramas I’m going to watch, and hopefully finish before this week ends.

  1. Bambino! (12 episodes, 2007).
  2. Dragon Zakura (11 episodes, 2005).
  3. Nobuta wo Produce (10 episodes + opening special & ending special, 2005). If you’ve read my post about Horikita Maki, this is the series where she won Best Supporting Actress in 2005.
  4. Proposal Daisakusen (11 episodes, 2007).
  5. Kurosagi (11 episodes, 2006) - The Black Swindler. Horikita Maki also stars in this series.
  6. Kisarazu Cat’s Eye (9 episodes, 2002).
  7. Yuukan kurabu (10 episodes, 2007) - Leisure Club / Yukan Club.

Hana Kimi (Hanazakari no Kimitachi e) will be shown in a local channel here in the Philippines. I’m not sure if it is going to be popular. But whatever, Horikita Maki is still cute, I even watched the whole series 3 times already. Most Pinoys still choose Korean dramas rather than Japanese dramas (J-doramas). Remember the local hit Meteor Garden, which is basically the Korean version of the Japanese original, Hana Yori Dango? MG became widely popular but not HYD.

As a bonus here is the ending theme for Hana Kimi, Peach by Otsuka Ai (4:07, MP3, 126kbps, 3.8mb).

    I’ve seen shows 1-5. They’re all good. You’ll have a fun week of drama watching!

    I’ve only finished Dragon Zakura and Kurosagi for this week. And I’m almost half-way through Nobuta wo Produce. :)

    @anne

    yup 11 episodes, but according to j-dorama, it lists 12 episodes. There is a special episode coming out (or is it out already?).
