For those of you who like to watch J-dramas,
which ones are your favorites?

Mine is 1 Litre no Namida. (:

I have lots of favorites...

Tiger & Dragon
Gokusen (first season)
Kimi wa Petto
Kisarazu Cat's Eye
Ikebukuro West Gate Park
Hana Yori Dango (first season esp. but second was good too)

and a bunch more. 😃

As a general rule I don't watch stuff with sad endings, though, so haven't watched 1 Liter no Namida or a bunch of others that are supposed to be good but tragic.

Going to second tofuqueen's Kisarazu Cat's Eye. That's what friendship's all about: Playing baseball and stealing for Bussan. 😃

Also these:

Kabachitare! (starring Tokiwa Takako and Fukatsu Eri)

  • I don't understand why they stopped fansubbing this drama. Not enough Yamapi? 😢 I shelled out $200 bucks to import the drama. I don't regret it to this day.

Slow Dance (starring Fukatsu Eri and Tsumabaki Satoshi)

  • Another "Fukatsu Eri" drama. Tsumabaki and Fukatsu Eri have a weird sort of chemistry (in a good way) that transfers on screen very well, and I believe that was part of the reason why they were chosen to act again in the movie " The Magic Hour".
    The dialogue can get a bit preachy/cheesey in some parts. But the ending always gives me an emotional high.

And, of course, Sexy Voice and Robo. ( even though nobody I know seems to like it as much as I do.)

There's a lot of good dramas out there. You just have to dig through all the newer crap they've piled on since.

Love Shuffle

Oh! That's the one with Tamaki Hiroshi, right? That was such a fun drama. It's the only recent drama I've watched, um, recently.

Don't watch much J-drama. But the only one of the few I watched and actually liked would be 1 Litre of Tears. (I cried more than 1 liter watching that! ;-; )

I'm not sure if it's my all-time favorite. I haven't seen so many Japanese Dramas as I'd like. I like Hana Kimi ~ It's so comedic it's hard for me not to enjoy it. I haven't finished Zettai Kareshi ('cause I'm too into a Mexican Novela)
