Akihabara@DEEP [アキハバラ@DEEP] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) I liked the early episodes, but the tone seemed different in the second half, and the ending didn't work for me at all. | Ashita no, Kita Yoshio, ~Sekai Ichi Fuuna Otoko no, Kiseki no Jyuuichi Nichi Kan~ [あしたの、喜多善男〜世界一不運な男の、奇跡の11日間〜] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Aside from a somewhat weak ending this was a good drama. Kohinata Fumiyo and Yoshitaka Yuriko gave great performances, and everyone else (except Konishi Manami) was at least good. | Dragon Zakura [ドラゴン桜] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) |
Gal Cir [ギャルサ] Rating: 5/10 (Watched) Not very good, but the comedy elements sometimes worked. | GTO [麻辣教師] Rating: 10/10 (Watched) | H2~Kimi to itahibi [2〜君といた日々] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) The first half was good, but it completely collapsed in the second. Also, -1 point for some incredibly annoying side characters (Kunimi's parents, the english teacher, and Noda and Kine's stalkers). |
Hotaru no Hikari [ホタルノヒカリ] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) Not terrible, but Ayase Haruka isn't suited to comedy, and Kato Kazuki gave one of the worst performances I have ever seen. Also, the pacing could have been better. Just what is so bad about wearing jerseys anyway? | Ikebukuro West Gate Park [池袋ウエストゲートパーク] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Started well but the ending was kind of dumb. | Jikou Keisatsu [時効警察] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) |
Kaette Kita Jikou Keisatsu 2 [帰ってきた時効警察 2] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) | Keizoku [ケイゾク] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) The early, comedic, episodes were great. I didn't like the later change of direction. | Kimi ga oshietekureta koto [君が教えてくれたこと] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Tomosaka Rie was outstanding. |
Kisarazu Cat's Eye [木更津キャッツアイ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) | My Boss, My Hero [マイボスマイヒロ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) | Nobuta wo Produce [野ブタ。をプロデュース] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Excellent aside from the lame ending. |
raiaa geemu [ライアーゲーム] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) | Sailor Fuku to Kikanju [セーラー服と機関銃] Rating: 5/10 (Watched) | Shika Otoko Awoniyoshi [鹿男あをによし] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Not bad, but the mysteries were too easily solved and the answers underwhelming. Tabe Mikako gave a good performance, but Tamaki and Ayase were terrible. |
Swing Girls [スウィングガールズ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Pretty average, but +1 for the hilarious folk duo. | | |
