Binbo Danshi


I should say, this is my favorite Japanese drama all in all. Superb acting, funny, sometimes touching especially before ending, I cried a bit and got in with my emotions hehehe. But I can't erase the fact that this is one awesome story I'm going to watch all over again.

The story is about a college student, which is not your ordinary college student. He is so kind that people took advantage of him for loaning money and this poor guy ended up really broke. A very optimistic person believing money is not the most important thing but kindness.

During his journey, he met various types of people, gained friends and enemies but all in all, a great collaboration of characters. This drama is portrayed by Oguri Shun as Koyama Kazumi. For real, this is the first time I've seen this guy do comedy stuff so I'm really impress on this guy's talent for acting. Plus a casts like Miura Haruma, Yashima Narito, Yamada Yu, Yusuke Santamaria and a few others.

I suggest you see this drama and you'll get a good laugh out of this one.

Yume wo Kanearu Zo


Now this is one good story about a girl desperately wanting to improve her lifestyle. Though it's a bit fictional but the story is really good and very funny. It revolves around a woman named Hoshino Asuka (Mizukawa Asami) who works as a temp in a company. One day, her bad luck got worst and so she was really depressed then Ganesha (Furata Arata) appeared wanting to help her attain success.

During the first episode, Oguri Shun appeared but only on the first episode. As I have researched, Oguri Shun played the tanpatsu version on this drama though I haven't seen that yet but I can't find it anywhere, if you have any information where I can watch it, please tell me, I'd be very grateful. ^_^

The story is very funny and you'll not get bored watching this. This is the first drama I've watched where Mizuka Asami is the main character. A story of a typical company temp trying to find happiness the REAL way. It's interesting that in simple ways, it can really make you happy so I wanna try also those tips from Ganesha :p

So if you want an inspiring drama to watch, watch this. Really funny ^_^ Enjoy

Gokusen Season 1


They say high school life is one of the most memorable and exciting part of being a student. Well, I agree to that and this Japanese drama is one good example. Hilarious, touching and friendship describes this drama called Gokusen 1. There are three installations of this drama but I'll tackle the others in the future. This is also taken from a big hit manga in Japan.

This is a story of a female math teacher named Kumiko Yamaguchi (Yukie Nakama) as well as being a grand daughter of the fourth generation of a Yakuza family, she takes the adventure with her students to enjoy their high school life as well as show them the true meaning of friendship. These students are known to be delinquents but with Yankumi's guidance, they were able to overcome various obstacles and been able to change their lives.

When I watched this drama, it was pretty exciting because the characters are so funny and the whole season is not boring at all. I enjoyed it a lot and really worth watching. Yankumi is so funny but the one that makes this interesting is Sawatari Goro, the vice-principal. Just looking at his face makes me wanna laugh HEHEHE... He's really a funny guy so you guys better watch this video if you don't wanna miss this popular drama. By the way, they just released a movie of this drama.

So guys, do watch this one. Very interesting.

Stand Up!


At first, I thought this is a cheaply made, non-sense drama. The usual teen love story, but then again, right after the finished the whole season, it has a very touching story between 5 childhood friends, grew up together aside from Chie (Anne Suzuki) whom faced their Summer days together although some problems were raised but they've managed to overcome it by helping one another. The 4 boys were Shohei (Kazunari Ninomiya), son of a Pharmacy owner and also the Vice-President of the town council, is the main character of the story, followed by Chie, her childhood friend who left their town and went back in his 17th Summer due to a personal problem. Then, there is Kou (Oguri Shun) who is a popular soccer player but not that popular with the girls, next is Ken-ken (Tomohisa Yamashita), who later in the series fell in love with Chie and tried to be Chie's boyfriend. And lastly, Udayan (Hiroki Narimiya), a rock and roll enthusiast, who is usually beaten up by a group of girls but eventually fell in love with one of them.

It's really a funny drama and very interesting. If you are looking for a comedy-drama that you don't wanna get bored, then try this one. The story plot is very nice and the characters really fits the story.

They are a bunch of highschoolers wanting to lose their virginity so they tried desperate things but in the end, they realized there is much more important than that.

So please, watch this drama series and you will see what I mean ^_^

Nobuto wo Produce... Kon-Kon!!!


This is the second time I've watched Kamenashi Kazuya in a Japanese drama series since Gokusen 2. Kamenashi Kazuya's role is Shuji Kiritani, a popular student from his highschool class. He met a girl named Nobuko Kotani (Maki Horikita)which later they called Nobuta which at first kinda creepy but it turned out that they have become friends and also with Akira Kusano(Yamashita Tomohisa).

The story is really interesting, being through all the trouble they had faced and the hardships they had overcome. Yamapi's role here is really funny the way he flaps his arms like a crazy guy but it turns out that he was really a good guy and keeping a good relationship with Shuji and Nobuta. Though Nobuta is really not popular in their school, Shuji and Akira decided to make her popular. In the end, they were a love triangle.

If you like Japanese dramas, this is a must to be seen one! The story has so many unexpected twists and surprises so it's definitely worth spending time with. A typical Japanese drama that's really inspiring and on top of that, I can say, is very unique.

Please watch it [n_n]

CROWS ZERO 2 Rocks!!!

Since I've seen Crows Zero 2 starring Oguri Shun, I was amazed and I never really thought that there are still movies like that which really made an impact on me. I don't know, but I think the movie is totally cool, although the violence is massive and there are a lot of fighting and stuff but still I love the movie.

It was a story of a man named Takiya Genji who's the son of a Yakuza leader. He made a deal with his father that if he would be able to take over his school, Suzuran which is known for a school of te delinquents, he would take over his dad's position as the leader of the Yakuza. So that's what he's fighting for, to take over Suzuran himself.

This movie is based from a manga of Takahashi Hiroshi and was delivered to the big screen year 2007. This was a sequel to the first movie, Crows Zero starring Oguri Shun as well.

Now, I wonder if there is a sequel for this movie? He haven't beaten yet Rindaman and Miura Haruma hasn't been doing anything for his revenge.

For those who had already watched this movie, what do you think?
