Beautiful life [ビューティフルライフ] The side characters were very interesting and had great storylines, plus the visual aspect of the dorama is unforgettable.
Love generation [ラブジェネレーション] The music made the series, the first 7 episodes are pure gold, but after that, towards the end, it's a damn shame, since the dialog was shot, characters looked forced and the ending was horrid.
Oyaji~ [オヤジぃ] Very fun. I never had so much fun with a dorama. It's a great light viewing and alot of the characters were very real.
Saimin [催眠] A damn guilty pleasure, despite how predictable the dorama is, you don't care and apperciate how hard Inagaki Goro really tries to make this dorama work.
Yamato Nadeshiko [やまとなでしこ【大和撫子】] Very honest and not forced at all. I felt this dorama had one of the very best endings, and it wasn't rushed and it was well deserved. The dialog is cheap, but the incidents the leading lady gets into is unforgettable and keeps you watching.
