• On Does marriage threaten the careers of Japanese actors? at 06/07/2010 00:16

  This article made me so mad. How are these guys short of work? Mizushima Hiro finished up "Tokyo DOGS" not too long ago and he's got a lead role in the upcoming "Beck" movie. Eita's marriage was just announced; we don't know how it's going to affect his career yet.
  
  And really, shouldn't any person's career take a little slow-down when they have increased family obligations? I mean, I wouldn't want a husband (or a dad) with MatsuJun's schedule. Shouldn't we be hearing about how Hiro and Eita are AWESOME significant others? That news makes me more inclined to watch their upcoming projects--not less.

• On Can Fuji TV score a hit with their newest Getsu 9 dorama? at 05/31/2010 08:44

  There's no romance, but "Kaibutsu-kun" is incredibly well-done. It's adorable, hilarious, and (unexpectedly) poignant.

• On New top ten list of Jdramas based on manga at 03/25/2010 08:16

  @lumi I hear you. A lot of these dramas were fun to watch, but...also a little painful at times. I guess the fans here thought the fun outweighed the ouch. ;)
  
  And I am likewise shocked (though definitely not appalled) to find HanaDan not on this list. I've got a love/hate relationship with the show; maybe more people are like that, too?

• On Arashi boys play New Super Mario Bros Wii in new CM at 03/18/2010 13:00

  Adorable!

• On JapanaTen: 10 Reasons why J-drama is better than plain TV at 03/17/2010 23:12

  "Akihabara @DEEP" is amazing, especially for an anime/manga fan looking to make their first foray into J-drama. "My Girl" is also legitimately, thoughtfully good. You can always grab a stiff drink and suffer through "Hana Yori Dango" for the shared cultural experience. (HanaDan is fun, but my God, it's also very painful.)

• On Kimura Takuya, Gatsby and the best dog of all time at 03/08/2010 18:59

  There's just so much right about this commercial. The hair, the background music, the straight-faced treatment of the puppet dog...bear?

• On Man Day: Have a gallery of drop dead gorgeous Ikemen at 02/05/2010 16:20

  Thanks for the hotness!
  
  @Kiriska I totally agree. This is a nice respite, indeed.

• On Idol of the Week: Akina Minami at 01/28/2010 16:59

  Akina's super-cute; I agree with HoodedMiracle that her hair is awesome. But...eight of the last ten idols have been ladies. Man candy, please? :D

• On Japanator Recommends: Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge at 01/27/2010 16:52

  Seeing this post in my blogroll made me so happy! I was really wary about this drama at first, but the first two episodes have completely sold me. I like the choices they've made with new characters, which plotlines to include, etc...and you can't beat a Sunako/Kyohei fight! Highly entertaining and well-executed for the genre.

• On Google auto-complete: Why is Japan so... at 01/18/2010 14:03

  Arama hit on this a little while ago. The discussion yielded some pretty interesting results. http://community.livejournal.com/aramatheydidnt/505869.html

• On J-Pop Christmas: Foxxi misQ's Last Christmas at 12/28/2009 21:22

  Am I crazy, or are those lyrics nowhere near a translation of George Michael's? Same with the EXILE video, too...

• On Winter drama rumors include Gokusen 4, Code Blue 2 and more at 11/11/2009 20:50

  Okay. I'm trying to think of a role in Ryu Ga Gotoku (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0991243/) that Kazunari could pull off. Not that he's a bad actor by any means, but he's not the toughest-looking guy out there...
