I just saw episode 5 RAW. How many days does it takes for the sub to go out ?


Why does the drama only plays on Thursday! With the popularity of this drama, I see more lgbt storylines in the future. Is this drama the highest rating this season?

It depends... Sometimes in a day, sometimes more... We're at the mercy of the fansubbers.

Uh, because it's a weekly series...... Sweat


Just watched Episode 5:
Spoiler (highlight text to read):
Lots more dialog, so it definitely needs the subs... Sweat

That said, I'm officially sick of the whole Michiru-Sosuke thing: I had to hit the fast-forward button... Both characters are sickeningly pathetic now.

Takeru's reaction to Eri's advances must've been a totally planned deja vu moment: it was identical to Ruka's reaction from her motocross coach... And he was drunk like Eri as well...

It's irritating, but Michiru owns up to it (which you'll see in the subs I guess).

Spoiler (highlight text to read):
At the end, Ruka is telling her that she needs to become stronger, but Michiru says that she's a coward... then goes into saying how Ruka is amazing, strong, has a loving family and has talent. Then she says she's a coward again, and (probably because of) that she knows Sousuke's weakness.

She's aware of her weakness, and the only person who can do anything about that is herself. She's still teetering, but I think this is a very realistic portrayal of how most people are.. when you're attached to something, unless you're strong enough you can't just walk away from it. And outside parties can't force you to walk away from it either... though it looks like Takeru attempts to in Episode 6.


We already know that she becomes strong enough to walk away from it all since they showed us her present-day self. I'm glad that, in spite of being incredibly irritating and getting old fast, they're showing us how she handled things before.

Also, as far as the big death goes:
Spoiler (highlight text to read):
I think it's pretty much between Takeru and Sousuke now. With Michiru saying 「そっちの空はどう?」(How's the sky over there?) in the beginning episode, and Ruka saying she wants to go to America to chase her motocross dream in this episode. Unless something happens if/when Ruka decides to go get that sex change, I guess?

I got that feeling, but I wasn't sure... I re-watch when the subs show up.

I agree wholeheartedly, but still it's awful hard to watch it transpire... Like a helpless onlooker. Sweat

I think sometimes that's exactly why we like dramas and shows - we get to witness but not matter how hard we try, we can't influence - there is a kind of vulnerability (a quality which I argue is crucial to any really effective media)

Random stuff, my japanese teacher wrote me a mail in which she commented Last Friends

ラストフレンズはちょっと怖くてかわいそう
Last Friends ha chotto kowakute kawai sou

Mr Green

As for my comment... I dunno this whole Michiru-Sousuke thing is getting more pathetic in every episode.

Spoiler (highlight text to read):
And what did Sousuke do to Michiru in the end? I guess he didnt rape her, because she would definitely seem more sad after that, wouldnt she..?

I was getting a bit annoyed of Michiru and Sousuke's relationship too... I'm just glad that in the last episode you finally learn why she loves/ sympathizes with Sousuke
