| 1. | Comments by jdfan [Rating: 9/10] This is a show that had stirred up a lot of opinions. Most of all, they are quite extreme. Because I have been exposed to these opinions, I decided to watch it in a very careful way. Since the Sleeping Forest, the maturing writer's view of human emotion/nature gets a lot deeper now. All three main stars were great, especially Takuya and Fukatsu. In pure acting evaluation, this is a great show! This show gave room for Takuya to show his stuff...I believe this script is not suitable for all dorama viewers. Only some Fan could appreciate this one! I do.... |
| 2. | Comments by DDT [Rating: 10/10] Confusing but interesting drama from the start. Deals with issues on the extreme such as betrayal, toying with love, and childhood trama, and conscience. Kimura Takuya is the anatagonist this time. He has shown he has good acting versatility in this role. Good intense drama...serious.. no laughs here. |
| 3. | Comments by warren.mcclendon [Rating: 6/10] I am a big fan of Eri Fukatsu, and wanted to enjoy this but it was impossible. The drama loooks years older than its supposed to be. Also, plot is this an takes forever to develop. Everybody looks like they have been woking 21 hr workdays for months, and there dragging thru every scene. |
| 4. | Comments by katrinka [Rating: 10/10] I believe this is the best ever Drama Kimura has ever done. Instead of a good guy role he usually plays, this role is more dark. He plays a killer who seduces woman into killing for him. That is until he meets the woman of his dreams, whose scar on her arm fits his scar like a puzzle piece. Then he falls in love and tries to change. Unfortantly the woman's secret leads down the path of unhappyness. If you have to watch one drama, watch this one! |
| 5. | Comments by ct_subang [Rating: 6/10] it was kinda slow in the 1st episode..but things look much more brighter further-on..reminds me of autumn in my heart but..really dramatic |
| 6. | Comments by manutunia [Rating: 9/10] This drama shown how great actor takuya is. Good story but you just hope it didn't end that way. |
| 7. | Comments by yuka [Rating: 8/10] This is not a generally appetizing drama but would titillate one’s senses if persuaded to dig in. A fatefully tragic story. Somberly moody and tainted.
My interest is piqued by Kimura’s twisted character – an amoral cad who uses his attractiveness to the hilt to sexually enslave and ensnare his female victims in psychological games.
A distinct departure from Kimura’s usually good guy roles and his sexiest to date, judging by the many amorous scenes. |
| 8. | Comments by juliana_phang [Rating: 10/10] something new.. gloomy.. mysterious.. |
| 9. | Comments by takuya_angel [Rating: 10/10] MY MOST FAVE! Takuya's top-notch acting skill in this score took my breath away. I could never be more impressed.
It's a Must-Watch! |
| 10. | Comments by Shakyamuni [Rating: ?/10] Intruiging. Great performances from Sanma and Kimutaku. Definitely worth watching. |
| 11. | Comments by mldesu [Rating: 9/10] pretty damn awesome
it features the most mature performance from kimura takuya to date. he is so good one forgets he is kimura takuya. that's how good he is in this one.
also very good is igawa haruka as miwa: a stirring, layered, passionate performance.
overall, it probably was a good thing for the drama that fukatsu eri was cast as yuko. while predictable, this is not an easy role to play. this youthful stage veteran brings out the tragedy of being yuko.
some of the music reminded of that in taiyo wa shizumanai.
in fact, music in most of kimura's dramas is used to good effect in setting or enhancing the atmosphere and mood of the work, and so ups the overall quality of each drama.
the end theme piece of sora kara, slow, understated and sombre, brings out the sad sad aura of this tale.
even though the storyline is predictable, one is moved to tears in the final poignant scenes. much has to be said for the 10-episode build up leading to the climatic final episode.
a consistently good and intelligent script was also a big help. as were the silences and the colors used in the drama.
One question though ... why is the title a hundred million stars from heaven? |
| 12. | Comments by maguro666 [Rating: 9/10] The story is very controversial and I cannot stop thinking after finished watching it. Definitely worth watching. But you have to get through the rather slow start. |
| 13. | Comments by StarKodama [Rating: 10/10] The best drama on this whole entire planet. |
| 14. | Comments by carie_akanishi [Rating: 8/10] Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi is not as bad as some pple think..I find the plot quite exciting( except the incest part which I think a bit destroy the show) n Takuya's good acting skills really shows in the drama. Get to know the famous comedian Sanma san from this show.. |
| 15. | Comments by EdGeGaL [Rating: 9/10] very unique and original dorama.. different from the past doramas takuya kimura acted in.. and i loved eri fukatsu in the show! |
| 16. | Comments by o|o [Rating: ?/10] CSUB |
| 17. | Comments by fuqinlan [Rating: 8/10] i do not really like the character that he acted, quite dark |
| 18. | Comments by malorum [Rating: 10/10] The END ALL of Japanese Drama. THE BEST JAPANESE DRAMA PERIOD. |
| 19. | Comments by Hee Hee Hee [Rating: 8/10] gd...show...wow so sad that kimura lidat.........nv expect the ending!...so touching...i cried...at last part... |
| 20. | Comments by CyToT [Rating: ?/10] i've only watched until disc 3.. i felt like finishing it all last nite but my ma would be mad if i wake up late this morn.. |
| 21. | Comments by arashinokoto [Rating: 8/10] actually i dun know what rating to give.. didn't really enjoy it until ep8.. but the last episode was so poignant that i just kept crying for yuko and ryo.. both did a great job.. so did kanzo and yuki.. |
| 22. | Comments by orenji [Rating: 10/10] It's dark, dark and more dark. A suspense drama... Both Sanma and Kimura have carried out their roles Dojima Kanzo and Katase Ryo very well. They don't lack chemistry at all. Fukatsu Eri's role as Dojima Yuko suited her well. Do watch this dorama! I have rewatched it at least 3 times! Even the theme song "Smile" was really good. The OST is superb too! :D |
| 23. | Comments by Bsalez [Rating: 8/10] I think Takuya act better as a bad guy ne..What u reap is what you sow.. |
| 24. | Comments by TsuyoshiK [Rating: 10/10] I was sadden by the ending. The brotherly love which surfaced after being hidden for so long by Ryo's cold exterior was a bit ironic and sad. |
| 25. | Comments by FierceStriker [Rating: 9/10] One of the saddest dramas I have ever seen. A true tragedy as the title Million Falling Star implies (as in the falling of a star implies the death of someone on earth).
The writer has certainly matured a lot since the vague ending of Sleeping Forest and the unnaturally, laughably happy ending of Ice World. He has finally mastered the key of human emotions, the key to all human games - "emotional manipulation" deprived from "solitude," from "fear of solitude," from "hatred of solitude," to "numbing of solitude."
All the actors are perfectly chosen for the role. The music appropriately "positively negative." Lots of symbolism.
Go watch it and hear your heart ache. |
| 26. | Comments by dummyuser11 [Rating: 9/10] Takuya is seen playing a different role from his usual 'goodguy'. but it's really interesting...he's so dark and mysterious...but so sad that he has to die.... |
| 27. | Comments by hide_hikaru_minako [Rating: 10/10] I just LOVE this show. Fukatsu Eri and Kimura looked so bloody compatible together yet .. they couldnt be together in the end. I just like Kimura acting as the bad guy sometimes. He is so talented, how many actors/actress can act the bad and good guy so well. Shibasaki Kou is supposingly to play this violent role but somehow, i dont feel that can of aura around her. Her eyes are unique but i just cant descibe it. Kept me glued to the screen all the time, espcially at the end. Cried like hell, whenever i think of Kanzo's situation. |
| 28. | Comments by eien Bussan [Rating: 9/10] really tragic... :( |
| 29. | Comments by xuanie [Rating: ?/10] unique show! |
| 30. | Comments by madol [Rating: 7/10] dark drama |
| 31. | Comments by yume [Rating: 6/10] Still watching this drama, but I have to say the first episode did very little to interest me. Why? I have no idea where the drama is going--what is the point? I didn't get anything vaguely resemblant of a purpose until the VERY last minute of the first episode. 3 episodes into it, and we finally begin to see the mysterious case unfolding--the scars from being burnt on Fukatsu and Kimura are only vaguely interesting. I want to know more about the police case--but this drama goes at an agonizingly slow rate--just like Nemureru Mori/Sleeping Forest. |
| 32. | Comments by DragonSpirit164 [Rating: 9/10] Wow this is brilliant!!! Great acting from Kimura, Sanma and Fukatsu.... The story is generally deep and depressing, but it's brilliant. The first few episodes are a drag I must say..but afterwards the plot just gets wonderfully superb. Good to see Kimura Takuya playing a jerk. Highly recommended!!! |
| 33. | Comments by subaruppi [Rating: 9/10] Loved this, despite the viewer ratings and varied opinions in both Japan and overseas. It was painful to watch....in that it was difficult to see Kimura-kun play such a nasty role. The story itself was horribly devastating too - unrealistic, yes, but it still made me cry like mad at the end. Fukatsu Eri and KimuTaku were both extremely good in this, I thought - the only thing that turned me off was Sanma...lol. |
| 34. | Comments by AngelXing [Rating: 9/10] Takuya is seen playing a different role from his usual 'goodguy'. but it's really interesting...he's so dark and mysterious...but so sad that he has to die.... |
| 35. | Comments by Mink [Rating: 10/10] Probably the best suspense drama I've seen up til now. The plot is intricate, but its the complex characters with their history that really make this drama noteworthy... the cast is simply too great. The best part is the chemistry between Kimura Takuya and Akashiya Sanma... |
| 36. | Comments by linco [Rating: 2/10] it was really weird. the ending is really depressing and kinda sick. how can he have sex with his sister?! |
| 37. | Comments by dummyuser13 [Rating: 10/10] The story line was full of suspense and mystery. Though one of Kimura's more dark dramas once i again, I enjoyed it. |
| 38. | Comments by heimu [Rating: 7/10] Alot of questions and alot of uncertainty, maybe I'm slow to understand the plot, everything looks slow for me. But, as a Takuya fan, I would love you to enjoy it. :) |
| 39. | Comments by chadine [Rating: 10/10] very sad |
| 40. | Comments by yijing [Rating: 7/10] tragdy. cried really badly during the last episode. really dislike Ryo during the 1st few episodes...but Kimura's acting is really good...can sense Ryo's internal healing merely through his eyes. |
| 41. | Comments by dae_dream [Rating: 8/10] Dark theme and a bit slow sometimes but still enjoyable overall |
| 42. | Comments by fuji-senpai [Rating: 10/10] This is probably the best drama i have ever watched |
| 43. | Comments by smmlt [Rating: 4/10] Complete.
PDTV VCD Unkn |
| 44. | Comments by R`zzz [Rating: 6/10] Kinda boring.
Ending was unexpected. |
| 45. | Comments by kiba92 [Rating: 8/10] Interesting plot and it is interesting to see Kimura Takuya playing such a different role. Kinda lagged in the middle but the ending was a suprise. |
| 46. | Comments by rikastar [Rating: 7/10] This is another dark one.. but I liked this one. The story is kinda disturbing though, especially the twist at the end, which is kinda gross imo but so tragic. I think the main 3 actors/actress did a really good job here. |
| 47. | Comments by rina_rina [Rating: 10/10] one of the best dorama i've seen!!!!! the story is not a romantic comedy one, but its just so so so good to watch... |
| 48. | Comments by loreejay [Rating: 9/10] loved kimura takuya
such a great actor and is VERY hot
dark characters suit him very well |
| 49. | Comments by kaonashi [Rating: 8/10] A suspense drama a la "Nemureru mori" that goes a step further. "Nemureru mori" is a better drama though, in every aspect. The 2 main reasons are that this series is too slowstarted & also rather predictable although it tried hard not to be. Much more can be said about the plot, but to do that would spoil the whole story. Overall, it's a dark, tragic & good drama with a nice cast & some impressive acting. I do recommend it. 8+ |
| 50. | Comments by savagecc [Rating: 7/10] it just reminds me of another film<old boy>,there are some polt similiar....anyway..
it's a sad sotry |
| 51. | Comments by MiSsY^cRaCkErZ [Rating: 10/10] at first i dun really understand wif the story,, but after few episodes,, it begin interesting,, it's so cool!!!! but it's sad ending,, so tragic,, |
| 52. | Comments by totuta [Rating: 9/10] well-organized. great 'til the end. |
| 53. | Comments by QQ [Rating: 9/10] I'm not aalready watching it, coz the VCD has'nt sent to me yet. But I had heard that it's a nice Dorama. Well, who can refused that Kimutaku's not nice? hehehe ^_^ |
| 54. | Comments by moonchyld [Rating: 7/10] very very different. mind-boggling. but wonderful performance (as usual) by takuya! :D |
| 55. | Comments by ashley [Rating: 9/10] An intense, powerful performance by Takuya Kimura as the morally ambiguous Katase Ryo. A must-watch for every Takuya fan. While Takuya will always be remembered as Senna in LV, it will be this role that showcases his acting range. |
| 56. | Comments by crimsonRED [Rating: 10/10] THE BEST. great story, very tragic but really interesting. A very different Takuya Kimura on the series. |
| 57. | Comments by GIGI [Rating: 9/10] Another tragic but gripping drama. Instead of being scared of Takuya's character I felt curious and mystified. There was a lot of good acting here though I felt that the cop character was overacting in some scenes. Of course who would not notice a more buff and sexy Takuya looking lethally gorgeous in tanks and cowboy boots! :-) |
| 58. | Comments by viOLet harukO [Rating: 7/10] tHis shOw reaLLy keep You in sUspense...takuya acted as tHis assistant cHef and tHe cOmplicated love stOry Lies ahead.. |
| 59. | Comments by johuth [Rating: ?/10] Bought means available for trade! COMPLETE |
| 60. | Comments by blakmetalik [Rating: 7/10] It's a good story, only for Akashiya Sanma and Fukatsu Eri's performances and the theme of tragic, twisted fate. However, I struggled through trying to finish this series because I found it slow and somewhat boring. As for Kimura Takuya's performance as a vulnerable, mysterious, and complicated character -- there is nothing really unique or excellent about it (I guess I'm in the minority about this one). |
| 61. | Comments by GreenIce [Rating: 7/10] A deeply disturbing drama.. an interesting change from the usual light-hearted formulas.
Kimura is brilliant as the tragic anti-hero, slowly revealing the reasons for his lack of humanity as the story unfolds. The supporting cast did well to add to the suspense and even the music kind of lends a haunting effect. The ending theme "Smile" is chosen ironically.
However i got really depressed watching this show. If you are in a bad mood, watching this drama will make it worse =<
P.S. I think Kimura looks really cool in that black-jacket-with epaulettes-thingie. |
| 62. | Comments by enazekinaz [Rating: 7/10] dark drama + tragic |
| 63. | Comments by glayjiro1017 [Rating: 8/10] I am in the process of finishing this one!
It's great so far though!
When is Kimura Takuya never alluring? =)
Kimura Takuya is always gorgeous!
and Igawa Haruka is sooo beautiful in this drama, too ! |
| 64. | Comments by shikirocks [Rating: 5/10] a bit like Nemuru Mori |
| 65. | Comments by Nermal [Rating: 10/10] IOne of the few dramas I will ever give a perfect score to. I'm not much of a Kimura Takuya fan.. but I have to admit this was good. The story itself is amazingly intriguing and very captivating. Now figures amongst my top 3 dramas I've ever seen. |
| 66. | Comments by donna8157 [Rating: 7/10] A pretty good drama, but not one of my favorite Kimura Takuya dramas out there. The plot was dark and mysterious making you wonder what will happen next, however there were some scenes/dialogues that can get a little confusing.
I thought the main person that shone in this drama was Shibasaki Kou. She portrayed wonderfully a deranged/psychopathic/child-like female who was obsessively in love with Kimura Takuya's character. The detective did a good job, too. However, I thought that the plot was too planned out and rather ridiculous since everything was soo coincidental ad nauseam. The female lead in this series (that most people found to be wonderful) was okay, but I didn't like her character at all. She seemed a little too desperate. |
| 67. | Comments by Ushiroyubi [Rating: 9/10] This drama surprised me. It's really a dark and depressing situation for EVERYONE. "what a tangled web we weave..."
GREAT series. |
| 68. | Comments by ibabiexbeari [Rating: 10/10] REALLY GOOD!! omgosh it made me CRY!! the ending is totally unexpected but i loved it lots. the plot was something new and after a while it was expected. either way i loved it |
| 69. | Comments by Jewel [Rating: 8/10] First time seeing Takuya acting as the 'bad' guy, his mysterious smile and actions makes him even more cooler then ever. Also the determination of the Dojima Kanzo to solve the case and the background of him and Takuya makes this story more exciting.
Those who loves suspense/detective story will definitely love this drama. By the way, the soundtrack of this is great too! |
| 70. | Comments by williu [Rating: 9/10] This is one deep drama! It can get a bit depressing, but if you have a philosophical viewpoint, you will get a lot from it! It basically is a very good drama, I would like to give it a 10, but there's just something that keeps me from doing it. But you have to see it to know how good it is! |
| 71. | Comments by uglymale [Rating: 6/10] Rather draggy, and not quite as good as Nemureru no Mori and Koori no Sekai in the same genre; even KimuTaku can't make this ok drama into an outstanding one. |
| 72. | Comments by lovejdorama [Rating: 9/10] Finished 2/12/05. I LOVE this dark drama by Takuya Kimura!

| 73. | Comments by Taurmindo [Rating: 8/10] great drama with surprising events and decisions from the characters through the episodes.. took a while to get their connection cleared out completely. kimura takuya does great and convincing acting, as most of the actors does.. sometimes sad, funny, typical, predictable etc, overall great. |
| 74. | Comments by laylowmay [Rating: 1/10] Holy Cow this drama was so horribly bad I cussed at my TV. Insanely ridiculous plot and mediocre acting from Kimura, as usual. |
| 75. | Comments by SyoCamui [Rating: 9/10] I love mysteries. This was extremely well done. It was very interesting, intriguing, and captivating. I really enjoyed it. The darkness and the light. |
| 76. | Comments by Leyy [Rating: 9/10] so unpredictable...so many twists..kimura-kun's character is dark and at same time soft & vulnerable..amazing how he can pull it through....i almost couldn't breathe in anticipation of the succeeding scenes...whew! hats off to the rest of the cast & crew as well!... |
| 77. | Comments by ainangst [Rating: 9/10] I thought this dorama would sucked. How WRONG am I. Its comparable to a greek tragedy (groundbreaker.com-rolecall).The cast have done a great job portraying the roles. The love of the 3 main cast is so strong, it makes my heart aches. Katase Ryo is one of the most intriguing character takuya-kun have ever played. Eventhough I've expected the outcome, i cried out of shocked when the bullet hit.
Oh and by the way,its been 3 days since i've watch it but my heart still ached. |
| 78. | Comments by luvin_pride [Rating: 10/10] beri touchin story! cried like hell when watchin e last ep.. beri sad ending.. but ish a beri nice drama overall.. i LOVE it!! =) |
| 79. | Comments by juuan [Rating: 7/10] Not your conventional jdorama. Glad Kimutaku attempted the role. |
| 80. | Comments by yamete_evie [Rating: 10/10] This drama is wonderful. Mainly because of Kimura Takuya. This role is miles apart from the other roles he plays. He manages to be enigmatic, mysterious, menacing, childlike, goofy, frightening and manipulative. I also like Fukatsu Eri and LOVE Shibasaki Kou. Kan chan also grew on me. The plot was brilliant. |
| 81. | Comments by tInoltin [Rating: 10/10] Wat a sad...sad...drama.......But its sooo good... go takuya go!! |
| 82. | Comments by SYILA78 [Rating: 10/10] WHEN I FIRST WATCH THIS DRAMA IT'S WAS SUPERB. KIMURA ACT SO PERFECTLY FOR THIS DRAMA. SOMETIMES U HATED HIM SO MUCH BUT CERTAIN TIME ALSO U WILL PITY HIM AND LOVE HIM SO MUCHFOR HIS CHARACTER IN THIS DRAMA. BEST ACTING SKILL FROM KIMURA. KIMURA GOT THE RULEZZZ.... |
| 83. | Comments by ribi [Rating: 9/10] One of the very best doramas that I've ever watched. It's so tragic that I am deeply affected by it. One of Takuya Kimura's strongest performance to date. |
| 84. | Comments by Tu_triky [Rating: 7/10] an interesting performance by kimura takuya, quite different from the majority of his roles. the darkness of character was indeed mysterious and well-conveyed. akashiya sanma, eri fukatsu, and kou shibasaki also add worthy performances. however, the evolution of the plot was exceedingly slow which ultimately ends up detracting from the suspense of the storyline. in fact, by the eighth episode i had already figured out the "big surprise" ending which you have to wait for a tad too long. not a drama for the happy go lucky crowd....in it's somber tone it conveys some of the same dark emotions as kou kou kyoushi 2003. far from a masterpiece yet may appeal to fans looking to see something different |
| 85. | Comments by zchendevlemh [Rating: 10/10] One of the greatest endings i've seen....... |
| 86. | Comments by Dorochive [Rating: 6/10] Almost hit the mark of being something special, but isn't so suspenseful as it should've been. |
| 87. | Comments by tab612 [Rating: 7/10] hmm... so mysterious!!!!! |
| 88. | Comments by selphie086 [Rating: 10/10] Great drama.You have to watch this. |
| 89. | Comments by Mengo [Rating: 10/10] Amazing |
| 90. | Comments by ColdCell [Rating: 10/10] One of the best of Kimura Takuya's dorama for me. A must watch! |
| 91. | Comments by Aunty Coco [Rating: 8/10] Kimura not only can act as a hero, he can also potray a villian really well... Its very different from all the shows he's in... But it's something new & worth watching... |
| 92. | Comments by tAz [Rating: 10/10] wierd, but still very nice. and touching. and very sad. cried lots when watchingthis drama. takuya is realli hot in here. |
| 93. | Comments by aik0 [Rating: 5/10] Kimura Takuya's womanizing charm is the only saving grace for this daytime soup opera. |
| 94. | Comments by fybabe [Rating: 3/10] gosh! what's wrong with me?!
i can't seem to 'feel like' watching this after the 3rd episode and it's a kimutaku drama!
don't know why but can't seem to focus on this story at all... hello hello... must be pretty bad huh??
i asked around and my friends also say they can't get past the 2nd ep!!! duh... what a weird case... |
| 95. | Comments by Bluejay [Rating: 10/10] Really good... but be warned... kind of creepy and even disturbing!!! |
| 96. | Comments by NurulMayfair [Rating: 8/10] Disturbing but great performance by all... |
| 97. | Comments by maeda [Rating: 10/10] The story line's so interesting that nobody's real good in this drama. Really dramatic one!!! The role of takuya's, can't touch at the first time. I don't undertand why he does, but when the show to the last eps. My thinking's changed at all. For the others actor are the same great. I think Takuya's shown his real talent and in this drama. I like it!!!! |
| 98. | Comments by Do-ri [Rating: 10/10] I believe this is the best drama Kimura has ever played. Instead of a good guy role he usually plays, this role is darker. He plays a killer who seduces woman into killing for him. That is until he meets the woman of his dreams, whose scar on her arm fits his scar like a puzzle piece. Then he falls in love and tries to change. Unfortunately, the woman's secret leads down the path of unhappiness. |
| 99. | Comments by aki_07 [Rating: 8/10] Will be better if condensed into fewer episodes. Beginning of the story has no connection with the plot at all though Kimura's fans would enjoy watching him play a cool weirdo. It has a dark plot which is what I like. I love dark plot. Because of its ending I rate it 8. |
| 100. | Comments by tikleabubble [Rating: 8/10] My first jdrama ever ^^ It was drastically different from the hk and kdramas that I was used to, but I enjoyed it. It's a dark drama. Kimura played is usual self, but it fit this role. Over all nice plot, and killer ending. mwhaha. The cast was well chosen. |
| 101. | Comments by shirllx [Rating: 9/10] I tink it is a really nice show...though the ending is really sad it was a beautiful love story...VERY GOOD:) |

the twists and turns make you wana watch this drama through at once.. tho rather shocking.. it is one heck of a thriller..
the ending totally sticks in my mind for weeks even after i watched it.. |
| 104. | Comments by Blood_Berry [Rating: 8/10] Talkin' about major deviant $hit. I liked it though. Watch it. |
| 105. | Comments by Kenshin03 [Rating: 8/10] Story is maybe a little convoluted, but enjoyable all the same. Good cast. |
| 106. | Comments by Jalapeno [Rating: 9/10] This is NOT your usual cutesy Kimutaku drama. This is serious shit man, I tell you. Really heavy although the acting is great, especially Akashiya Sanma. A good drama for Kimutaku to show off his acting chops. The story at the first few eps were quite vague & slow but when it gets to the later part of the series then it gets interesting. If you want to see this mainly because of Kimutaku, then I suggest you get something else as this drama can be disturbing. :) |
| 107. | Comments by MissMonika [Rating: 7/10] This drama was really weird. And at the end, very disturbing. Definitely a lot darker than a lot of the other Kimutaku dramas, but I really think he was good in this drama. He definitely showed another side to his acting that is more intense and is capable of being the bad guy. The story really kind of irked me, especially with the revelation towards the end. Not for everyone. |
| 108. | Comments by kiimura+akuya [Rating: 9/10] i think that this drama deserves a couple of praises... the brilliant acting by the casts really brings out the whole story plot.. plus++ all the mysteries.. great show where the puzzle gets pieced back one by one when you devour each discs one by one... |
| 109. | Comments by atleast13 [Rating: ?/10] wow! i loved the storyline on this. the beginning of the last episode was pretty shocking. and the ending, wow, i loved the ending. what a way to end a good series. beautiful! this is the kind of ending i want. not someone going and the other staying. that's all kdrama. but this is wow! hmmm.. i also love that saying, ignorance is bliss. definitely in my top list. |
| 110. | Comments by SMAPxELAINE [Rating: 8/10] Watched this drama, but dun like it very much... |
| 111. | Comments by celery [Rating: 10/10] One of my favorite drama. I like the scene about Sanma and Eri when they quarrel over small matters. Eri is funny. In the last episode, I cried...so sad. Nice OST. Eri san look the same (young and pretty) in Sora Kara and Odoru. Sugoii |

| 113. | Comments by kai0227 [Rating: 9/10] A good drama - very different from most KimuTaku dramas but you should watch it. However, if you do watch it, don't watch the one available for download on the internet. The translation is terrible and some files corrupted. |
| 114. | Comments by glyq [Rating: 7/10] OK... wen i first borrowed it i read the title and saw d cast n thought hey great cast... and thought sounds romantic.. n thought its a relaxing typical love drama.. and *wa~la~* my sister who was sittin nxt to me cried her bloody eyes out... but then throughout the drama was quiet suspenful.. and weird? |
| 115. | Comments by norz [Rating: 9/10] Very intense and eerie drama. Playing out the taboos head on! Kimera always playing the coolest lol |
| 116. | Comments by aoi_dolphine [Rating: 10/10] First of all I have to give it the thrumb's up for takuya and eri. Both of them are really good in the roles they played in this drama. Warning this is a DARK drama and the ending is not you expected. Lots of twist and turns with a sad story behind takuya's role. For this I give it a 10 cos takuya showed another side of his acting in this drama. Very different from his previous ones. |
| 117. | Comments by xhidex33 [Rating: 10/10] This was much better than I expected... though the story was dark and the end got sort of predictable, I still enjoyed watching it. Suspense and mystery... =3 Nice cast as well. |
| 118. | Comments by ilovetakuya [Rating: 9/10] This is the first Takuya drama I watched. All the cast gave great performances, especially Kimura Takuya and Akashiya Sanma. I loved the plot and its eerie atmosphere, as well as great soundtrack. The ending was very sad. It's true that it got predictable toward the ending, but nevertheless, it was still shocking and sad. |
| 119. | Comments by ThaiChick [Rating: 10/10] This movie could not be any better than this. All characters were perfectly casted. The most touching stories out of all Takuya's dramas, and very dark. His character was perfect. I think the movie was well done with a very unexpected ending. |
| 120. | Comments by kenvin [Rating: 5/10] boring |
| 121. | Comments by aiscess [Rating: 2/10] This series is not for me... |
| 122. | Comments by ongrina82 [Rating: 8/10] I didn't like the starting part of this story, sort of boring but as I go on watching, I keep wanting to find out on the secret behind it...Ending part was sad.. |
| 123. | Comments by sweetkisses7574 [Rating: 9/10] very good drama. i was pretty shocked at the end. sad. i loved it though. alot of people say it is very dark, and there pretty right. :) |
| 124. | Comments by Nobita-kun [Rating: ?/10] Currently watching this one (just finished episode 9). I'm fascinated by the somber, mysterious story, and even more intrigued by Kimura's shady character. I also like the fast. chimey music they play whenever some new event or revelation advances the plot. ^_^ This drama is very different from Kitagawa's usual works. It is dark and tragic but I find it strangely refreshing. On a side note, the real English title should be 100 million stars fall from the sky, since ichioku is 100 mlln. |
| 125. | Comments by heyheybp [Rating: 8/10] A good drama. The story is a little dark, but I was drawn by it. |
| 126. | Comments by Mujer [Rating: 8/10] a new and refreshing side to Kimura Takuya |
| 127. | Comments by Mali [Rating: 8/10] Very dark drama. Very pessimistic |
| 128. | Comments by clickfun [Rating: 10/10] the best drama ever i've seen... |
| 129. | Comments by expanzee [Rating: 7/10] One of the best dark drama I've ever watched. |
| 130. | Comments by Hemilya [Rating: 9/10] Kimura is awesome in this one. Well... he's always awesome, actually, but he plays such a mysterious and dangerous guy here... i can't help getting a cold chill because of him... Really attractive. I think this role was very suited for him.
Oh, and the story itself is very interesting. I liked everything about the series except for the girl who played main heroine. Don't like her at all. |
| 131. | Comments by Tokibaka [Rating: 10/10] Really dark, sad and good. A must watch. |
| 132. | Comments by Ralbol [Rating: 10/10] La claque ! Une fin epoustouflante, choquante presque. Quelques petites imperfections par-ci par-la, mais les personnages sont plus profonds que ceux qu'on a l'habitude de voir (mention speciale aux 4 personnages principaux, incluant shibasaki kou) et, meme si on a tendance a tout deviner un peu a l'avance, le scenar est bien foutu.
Preparez quelques dessins animes des bisounours apres le dernier episode tout de meme ! |
| 133. | Comments by athida [Rating: 8/10] Although it was slow and boring in the beginning, the ending made up for it. What a shocking ending! |
| 134. | Comments by itsonlykat [Rating: 10/10] AMAZING, SURPRISING PLOT, LOTS OF TWIST, MAKES YOU WANT TO WATCH THE NEXT EPISODE AND AFTER, A LOT OF MYSTERY!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!! |
| 135. | Comments by loveaomori [Rating: 5/10] I'll be particulary severe here because I'm a big fan of Kimutaku and I think that this one is maybe his worst dorama! If you want to see a creepy kimutaku watch nemureru mori, he's much better in it! I mean this story is about love, kimutaku is sad because he grew up alone without any family and so what? Is that a reason to make killed 26 people in a single dorama? Do we have to feel any pity for him although he killed undirectly so many people and a woman with a gun? I'm sorry but I was nearly happy that he died at the end! The population in Japan would have half decreased!!! And don't you find it exagerrated that so many girls fall for him even though he doesn't especially try to seduce them? It's crazy! And the flashback from his chilhood, the fact that he remembers everything at the end is so ridiculous!! I saw this it a thousand of dorama before! There are two good points in it nethertheless: The detective acts quite good and Shibasaki Kou is incredibly hot! want to see her in a lighter dorama! |
| 136. | Comments by baybeehxsleepi [Rating: 5/10] each episode towards teh end make u want to watch the next episode...okay dorama...watch it when u have time |
| 137. | Comments by Angry Machines [Rating: 10/10] A very dark and disturbing story, where you see a nwe face of kimura. I was very gripped by the story, but couldn't stop myself at counting how many ramens the detective had in the show.Talk about a cheap diet! |
| 138. | Comments by akane_MYV [Rating: 8/10] A really interesting storyline...at the end pretty exciting!! I like this drama much but it isn't the best, cause at some time it also was little bit boring. But also very mysterious, so it made me wanna know the truth. To me a pretty strange ending...little bit crazy, I have never expected such ending. Kimura Takuya played his role really nice, such a handsome guy! |
| 139. | Comments by Dreamchaser [Rating: 8/10] This one started rather slow, but the later episodes really got me. The storyline is really good and the acting was brilliant. Especially Kimura's acting and his way to talk through his eyes was really great. |
| 140. | Comments by ^aPPLe^ [Rating: 9/10] ThiS dRaMa Is juSt gReAt!! not only that it's different from the usual romance drama, it kept you watching til the end... ^.^ |
| 141. | Comments by mmyy [Rating: 8/10] Strong storyline. Great acting by lead actress. You can really feel the intensity, the dread, the overall depressing aura of the series. Despite that, I found the show a bit too draggy at times. There are lots of times I wish the people would just talk faster, or get straight to the point. Ending is sad and fitting, though I can't say I'm surprised since I saw that coming. Still, this is a good suspense series. Every episode ends at a cliffhanger making it hard to stop watching once started. |
| 142. | Comments by Ezalor [Rating: 9/10] Different from most other Doramas. Excellent storyline. Turbo ending. Akashiya Kanma stole Kimutaku the show. |
| 143. | Comments by v1olet [Rating: 10/10] This one is best. Dark and tragic dorama, yet interesting to watch. Good story, best actors & actress, surprising ending. I couldn't think of better ending. Takuya Kimura is the best! |
| 144. | Comments by k4g0me [Rating: 10/10] Dark but oh so good. |
| 145. | Comments by leftleg [Rating: 10/10] the ending is sad but i guess that's the best ending that we could get. although i cried my heart out at the end when ryo's letter was read out, i'm glad to see yuko and ryo were 'together' (in a way), finally.
very different to the typical usual kind of kimura takuya's classic drama but definitely worth a try. the pace is sometimes slow especially the first few episodes. but do hang in there and don't give up easily, the story will get more and more interesting/intense as you watch on. love all 3 main characters: ryo, yuko, kan-chan! |
| 146. | Comments by sadacori [Rating: 8/10] At the beginning, I thought this was going to be one of those typical romance drama, but boy was I wrong. There are twists all over this drama and the ending was quite screwed up--my favorite type of drama. |
| 147. | Comments by ayumigirl92 [Rating: 10/10] I have no idea why but this is a really good one. great story i think. It got really interesting. and i think it was really good. |
| 148. | Comments by x_XJules [Rating: 10/10] wow. |
| 149. | Comments by Jewell4 [Rating: 10/10] This is a sad drama & kinda slow but.... LOVE it. KimuTaku was so great actor.. my tears keep falling.... |
| 150. | Comments by fasix [Rating: ?/10] One Million Stars Falling from the Sky |
| 151. | Comments by Takashi [Rating: 7/10] could have been better, Fukatsu Eri is a good actor! |
| 152. | Comments by ginger ale [Rating: 9/10] Its dark, twisted and sad. A japanese film noir, a different Takuya as Ryo played to perfection.But all I could think of were the lucky ladies ( please note the plural) who got to kiss Takuya in the series!! If dark, passionate, and forbidden love is your cuppa tea, then watch this!!!! |
| 153. | Comments by Kitsuchi [Rating: 8/10] Um.. really interesting storyline about a guy, Kimura Takuya, being lost in life, without emotions of love and living like a "devil" as they say. He has no relatives, cheating women and just.. living like a beast. Though in his heart, he seeks for love and wants to live as a human. Then he one day suddenly bumps into that policeman and his younger sister. That's where it all begins. The story shows the relationship about those three.
It was a weird ending, indeed. I didn't expect it at all, it was totally shocking. I was like; "O.O... uso.. majide...!" Therefore, I didn't like it at all.. Even though I wasn't expect anything really, I would never expect THIS to happen at least.. Too heartshocking and maybe disappointing.. though maybe understandable even so? Don't know.. but I wish it was a different ending..
Kimura played an excellent role as the "devil". He was convinsing and I could feel his emotions. But the girl playing as 'Yuuko'.. I don't know about her. She shocked me in the beginning. At first, I thought she would be a different girl from everyone else, being serious and facing life and making feelings clear.. But then she all of a sudden betrayed her.. uh, the girl playing 'Miwa', whatever she actually was to Yuuko. That was uncler for me o.O. However, those two were close to each other, weren't they? And then Yuuko went and "betrayed" Miwa by dating with Ryou! I was like; "huuuh, what are you doing? Weren't you the one who was supporting Miwa and yelling at Ryou to think of Miwa's feelings?".
Anyway, interesting plot, kind of weird characters, though interesting as well..., and sad disappointing ending.. It should have been watched, I think. At least for Kimura's interesting character.
Oh, and then. I noticed the 'shocking'-music in the series. Am I the only one who noticed it? Whenever something shocking or scaring happen, that music would play.. I'm pretty sure that it's the same one used in the Korean series 'My sister-in-law is 19', isn't it? I haven't checked it up, I didn't find anything and I'm not THAT concerned about it to search for it like crazy... But I was just thinking it was pretty interesting anyway, hah XD. |
| 154. | Comments by agp_frick [Rating: 10/10] Brilliant work!
The story... the casts...
Amazing! |
| 155. | Comments by otakugirl [Rating: 10/10] This drama portrays a very powerful lesson on karma and how we repay our mistakes. Interweaved through this message, a story of a number of very dark characters is told. An obviously dark character Ryo, who is delightfully portrayed by Kimura. Surprisingly, he turns out to be not as dark as the rest of the characters who are seemingly sweet. The pathetic sweetheart who expects that Ryo will save her - Miwa, another incredibly dark character Yuko who is portrayed as an adopted sister of the main character, and of coarse the main character who is detective Kenzo with a debt to pay from one of his careless actions. I am so impressed with this drama, I would love to apprentice with the production team for this show. It has everything - magic, beauty, mystery, and tremendous talent. |
| 156. | Comments by Akiiness [Rating: 10/10] A drama with great morals; definitely life-altering. It's hard to find a great drama where the aspects of mystery, romance and a slice of life was done well with a nice touch of a plot twist. As a Kimura Takuya supporter, I'd say it's a must watch... for he landed in a role much different from many of his other dramas. =] |
| 157. | Comments by bluescorpion [Rating: 10/10] amazing drama editing |
| 158. | Comments by Milano [Rating: 9/10] A strong drama. The last ep has got a share of 27% |
| 159. | Comments by indah_mhd [Rating: 10/10] it's was a clever plot i like it a lot.never get borying to watch it.bravoo.... |
| 160. | Comments by rele [Rating: 10/10] Really hooked me from 1st ep. Good acting and well written characters. |
| 161. | Comments by sinned12 [Rating: 9/10] This is probably the best drama I've seen Kimutaku act. The story is very interesting and also intensed. It'll leave you guessing all the way to the end. |
| 162. | Comments by kirei_lanford [Rating: 8/10] a really dark dorama from kimura takuya san,, the ending is way too tracgic.. it doesn't have to be like that actually |
| 163. | Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 9/10] Kimura's best performance IMHO. Eri Fukatsu and Kou both excellent, but Sanma Akashiya is the star of this drama. A must see!! |
| 164. | Comments by laudakwah [Rating: 8/10] Not one of Kimura's best but not too bad. |
| 165. | Comments by marspeach [Rating: ?/10] I have to try to watch this again one day. Not ready yet. The first time it just creeped me out too much. |
| 166. | Comments by pinkokoro [Rating: ?/10] COMPLETE. |
| 167. | Comments by kireiyuhi [Rating: 7/10] I can't see why people would think that this drama was amazing but I do see it's strong points. The acting was superb but the plot itself was weak. |
| 168. | Comments by anpanman [Rating: 8/10] Dark and depressing.... the intensity of the ending really shook me up. |
| 169. | Comments by yanaliao [Rating: 5/10] I dunno why I bought this, maybe because the ones I downloaded were incomplete. But didn't like the story. very dark. |
| 170. | Comments by ayatoda [Rating: 10/10] Wow...I really loved this drama-Kimura's role was perfect as usual,but Akashiya Sanma's acting really surprised me-he did an awesome job.Overall a very good drama-with a good twist;) |
| 171. | Comments by Andro [Rating: 10/10] A really interesting drama with Kimura Takuya. I like it. |
| 172. | Comments by Vinny_Duvet [Rating: ?/10] надо будет посмотреть |
| 173. | Comments by bettebogart [Rating: 10/10] This was a haunting drama with great and tragic twists. Wonderful acting by Kimura Takuya, you never really know whether he's good, he's bad, he's in between? WHO is he really? I thought the first episode was disjointed and didn't go with the rest of the episodes, but that's my only complaint. I was on the edge of my seat, at times my jaw dropping. What would happen next? How can this end? It can't end well. I find myself thinking about this drama months after watching it. Also fantastic are Eri Fukatsu, Kou Shibasaki and of course Akashiya Sanma. This is not one for the kiddies, with some sex and violence and overall darkness. But for adults, this is a truly great drama. I can't recommend it enough. |
