Atsu-hime ep.5. Miyazaki Aoi definitely makes this one worth watching.

She gets better and better as the series progresses. At first she reminded me of her Nana role. But right around the episodes you are going into she morphed into the princess role with gusto. I can't get enough of this series. One of the best roles she has ever had. As someone said it is reminiscent of an asadora. I agree and I'm glad it's so. I have missed the asadoras since ch 18 decided to kill them with stupid replacements, although they have done very well in bringing this great drama to us.
It's amusing to note that in other forums, this drama holds great attention and discussion in very positive veins. For instance on the Runboard forum:
http://www.runboard.com/bcjkdramasincalifornia.f5.t169167
I guess the folks there are more into this type of taiga where it's more of a story line than historical correctness.... I know for me this is the only type of taiga I could watch and enjoy.

For me, I don't care if it has historical inaccuracies... as long as it's entertaining. And Aoi-chan certainly is that. She has such a spark, it's no wonder she was loved so much for Nana.

Ii Hito episode 1
I am still watching, but the first half hour is so funny.
The entire series has recently been released with english subs at d-addicts.

Episode 2
It was at times predictable but I still thoroughly enjoyed the ride along with Yuji. It was a lot of fun. ^^  |

| To wash the bad taste of Last Friends out of my mouth, decided I needed something really frivolous, so up to episode 3 of Sexy Voice and Robo and so far, I'm liking it!! Suzuka Ohgo is great as the smart (but not smart-ass) Niko and Kenichi Matsuyama is the perfect otaku. So far, so good. |

Finished episode 9 of Sweet Home. I found out that Fukaura Kanako, who plays the nosy neighbor, was only a year or 2 older than I was when she made this but she looks like she was in her mid 40's.  Must be those huge glasses, the old-lady hairstyle, and awful 80's looking outfits she wore.

I downloaded a series called Roomshare no onna. This is a Yorudora (as opposed to an asadora) 24 episodes x 15 minutes each. Only problem is, it's not subtitled  and I can't find subs anywhere.

Pride is probably her best work. Takeuchi and Kimura are pretty unbeatable combination. |
