@Tam Tam: Yuu is hawt, and he’s not gay. From his interviews it’s clear that he digs girls. He’s straight until proven otherwise

@Briar: ohh… sounds mightily interesting I want to watch it for Ikuta Touma, but I might pass on it if it becomes too heavy for me. Work is gonna be stressful for me in the coming weeks, and I think I’d rather watch something lighthearted and amusing to help me unwind >_<

@ Usagijen: How well you know me. Yes, I’ve watched the first episode on the day it came out online. Toma is yummy, so how can I not support him?

Maou is a re-creation of the Korean drama of the same name (taking into account the difference in languages), I think. I didn’t watch the Korean original, but so far the Jap version is intense. After the rather everyday-boy Toma acted as in Honey and Clover, Maou’s implusive-cop-with-a-dark-past is a good change. It’s still too early to tell whether it’ll be good or not (and I’m not a fan of serious suspense mystery drama as a rule), but I can say that Toma is an awesome actor in this.

@Briar: ohh yes, we watch JDrama for the wrong reasons, which just becomes right the moment we immerse ourselves into it (though still retaining the ’shallow reason’ of watching it)

and yes, I’m gonna finish the rest of the HanaKimi eps, for the love of Ikuta Touma. That said, I’m not sure if the summer drama Ikuta Touma is in will be good… I mean, it’s a really serious suspense mystery drama I think Or did you watch that already?

Ikemens!!!!

I love them. (No surprise there. )

Hana Kimi was the one which converted me to Jdrama, which is also the drama which started me on my raging hormonal crush on Ikuta Toma, which is also how I got to know about Yamashita Tomohisa, which are the two guys who got me really started on the whole Jdrama thing.

So… how can you not finish Hana Kimi? Trust me, the best is at the later parts. Ikuta Toma = yummy.

When I first watched Hana Kimi, I thought Yusuke Yamamoto looked like L (Death Note). I’ve since deciphered the difference, but I don’t know, I think I like L better.

Thanks for the scans! The ones with Hiro Mizushima (skinny but wow, really fine features) and Yuichi Nakamura (ok, I don’t know who he is, but you’ve convinced me to find out… asap) are particular drool worthy.

@blissmo: actually, I never got to finish Hanakimi too nyahaha. It wasn’t really a good drama, it’s just all for the lulz =/ such a shame, really. So long as we keep on preaching about jdramas, perhaps we’ll see more people getting interested in watching ‘em? They will be converted, eventually

OH YAY! I stumbled across another ROOKIES fan!! It’s a shame that hardly any bloggers watch jdramas, and thanks for the pics! I also watched HanaKimi, but I don’t think I ever finished it. I just skipped to the end and watched the first 7 or so episodes.

@Os: if we were to cultivate a Drama blogosphere community we’d have to either convert more people to watch more jdramas, or we lure the other jdrama fans into our blogs, either as lurkers, commentators, or writers! would love to talk to you about jdramas (though I’m still in the process of being converted, since I watch only a puny little number of dramas)!

@rukomi: The first Gokusen was really good, there were some inconsistencies with the last few episodes, but overall it was a great. I don’t have opinions on the 2nd and 3rd sequels because I haven’t watched it.

@Tam Tam: aw but Hiro is <333 D: oh well to each her own bishie preference

@issa: lol, if this Yuichi is the same seiyuu Yuichi, my ohhh my, I’d love him even more And that’s a shame that you haven’t experienced the pure awesomeness of ROOKIES, I hope you can join the ROOKIES fanclub, soon!
