Was watching Asuko March today, but totally dropped after starting Itsuka hi no ataru basho de. The main character looks a bit like one of my ex-crushes and she's sooo cute <3 And the drama's interesting! Makes me less scared of being caught for this and that HAHAHAHA :lol:

^Thanks so much for sharing!  :twothumbs

It's my 2nd favorite dorama this season and rekindled my interest in Ueto Aya.  I was a fan of her performances in Azumi 1 and 2.  :rock:

Shoten In Michiru no Mi no Uebanashi remains my favorite.  :peace:

I dropped Itsuka hi after the first ep. But since you guys think it's good, I'll give it a longer watch. Wouldn't want to miss a good series.
And all the others are finishing anyways. :) None of them really hooked me this season.

Watched a few episodes of xxxHolic. Anne going all witchy again.
And it's a little like Yokai Ningen Bem with it's theme, where Bem was about a look into humanity and Holic about human's daily little bad deeds massing up and going out of control.

^If I may quote HPriest

Quote
The biggest improvements in terms of season-average were recorded by ‘Itsuka Hi no Ataru Basho de‘ (NHK) and ‘Shotenin Michiru no Minoue Banashi‘ (NHK) again

and...

‘Itsuka Hi no Ataru Basho de‘ (NHK) ended without any surprises regarding its viewer ratings, but after all, it had to go against the baseball live broadcast on Tuesday. ‘Shotenin Michiru no Minoue Banashi‘ (NHK) was at least able to achieve a new personal record with its last episode.

Please note that both finished the season below 10 percent in terms of ratings.  Decent considering the time slot, and as noted by HPriest the ratings for both were on the up trend through the season (from the first episode).

That's kinda rare I think.  Usually, doramas start on a high and drop...

Average Ratings (Winter 2013):

recomendation dorama : Proposal Daisakusen XD

simple plot but a lot story  :) :
Ken Iwase is at his friend, Rei Yoshida's, marriage ceremony. However, he still loves her and regrets not having confessed his feelings towards her.
A fairy lets him travel back in time and try one more time to get Rei's heart.

currently i watch Kasuka na Kanojo (幽かな彼女).
the first episode was airing at 9th April 2013, so i still cant tell too much about the complexity of the story.
basicly, the dorama is about a middle school teacher and a ghost.
so far i enjoyed the dorama :)

A lot of this season's dramas have got me interested in watching.

Wish I had more time. Only started a few so far. Why are they all supernatural stuff? :roll:
Kasuka na Kanojo ep01 - Anne failing at haunting and instead getting bullied all the time. :sweatdrop:
All Esper Dayo! ep01 - xxxHOLiC guy! And Mano Erina's first drama after her H!P grad, with a character to break from her innocent idol image. :heart: oh, and Kaho doing some hot scenes.
Vampire Heaven ep01 - Comic-book love triangle happening here. And I love seeing Honda Tsubasa's acting, she's great at doing cool characters that suddenly show a cute side.

Here's the CM for Vampire Heaven. Classic teen-romance scenes from start to finish. :lol:

^^ That's going to be a really good drama, won't be a big hit but one of those sort of popular 'cultish' late night dramas, :? currently have started on these from this quarter and have plans to watch a few more.

Just finished watching  マジすか学園3 / Majisuka Gakuen 3 with members
from AKB48, a very strong contingent from SKE48, and a nice job from one HKT48 member.

If you understand that Idol Drama is not going to have the same acting levels
as a normally cast drama, but that you do get to see some of your favourites
in a completely different persona than you are used to, then Idol Drama is a
lot of fun to watch. And it can open up your eyes about members you haven't followed
before.

Started up on most of the shows. Time to do the normal up-down list.

Must-see:
Vampire Heaven ep01-02 - Still loving the simple romance story and that cute vampire duo. :heart: ppl started subbing it, yeah!
Kazoku Game ep01 - Drama about a home tutor doing extreme stuff (Kaseifu no Mita vibes). Sho's acting in The Quiz Show probably helps a lot. It's definitely one of the higher profile dramas this season. Kinda funny since he got number one in that poll for "person that ppl wanted to be their teacher" a month back? Probably dropped a few spots by now. The sauna scene with dad. :rofl:
Kasuka na Kanojo ep01-02 - Still a fun watch. It's pretty good for all ages, unlike the rest of the stuff here.
All Esper Dayo! ep01-02 - Mano turning it on big-time. :bow: Two words. Bathtub Scene. Or one word. 3P. Wait, is 3P one word... :sweatdrop:
Galileo 2 ep01-02 - Same awesome classic Galileo story for ep01. Interesting~ (tries to do his 'glasses pose'). Yoshitaka taking the baton from Shibasaki hasn't affected it much. Should be greatif they're able to keep the same quality.
Otenki Oneesan ep01-02 - Weather girl solving crimes is a pretty refreshing theme, same for Takei's character. Her rivalry with Nozomi also heating up.
They're so friendly together!?? Was this picture photoshopped? :lol:


Still great watches:
Take Five ep01 - Retired expert thief gathering his old gang to find a painting, a new prodigy that challenges him, a shady cop trying to use them (join them?) and a female cop that has a grudge with all thieves. Nice.
Kumo no Kaidan ep01 - A doctor assistant with no license. Saving people on an island clinic. For a little more drama, I think this is a pretty good choice. There's a lot more emotion with the main character which I find interesting, which is why I'm putting it high.
Sennyu Tantei Tokage ep01 - Cool detective guy with super-spy skills (his greatly-honed visual analyzing ala Robocop). It's pretty hard to stop myself from calling him Akiyama though (Liar Game reference). :sweatdrop:

Average:
Doubles~ Futari no Keiji ep01 - Classic cop duo drama. It's so manly, you might grow a beard just watching this.
Sora Tobu Kouhoushitsu ep01-02 - Failing news reporter trying to get a scoop from an ex-fighter pilot transferred to public relations due to an injury. The overall theme of standing back up after having their original dream career taken from them provides a lot of drama.
35-sai no Koukousei ep01-02 - GTO-like, just with Ryoko's schoolgirl version. Nothing surprising.
Kamo, Kyoto e Iku ep01 - Nao's character inheriting a traditional Kyoto hotel and facing problems keeping it running. Story is average, but knowing more about those traditional hotels is nice.

Borderline giving-up:
Bad Boys J ep01-02 - Sadly most of the characters are really one-sided and uninteresting, unlike Sugarless where they were much more defined.. same for the action, which is more near the level of Shiritsu.
Yae no Sakura ep01-07 - Paused this for some time. Still want to get back to it.
Last Cinderella ep01 - Not really interested. Will probably drop this one.
Goen Hunter ep01 - Same here.
Meshibana Keiji Tachibana ep01 - It's a food guide, and made me hungry for soba... wish I was in Japan.
