arigato gozaimasu, japanese tv!

Day 15 » A TV show you’re currently addicted to.

Well, it's not just one show that i'm addicted to. I'm currently addicted to japanese dramas or jdramas.

Strictly speaking, the first jdrama that i saw was Nodame Cantabile. And as much as i loved Nodame, the one that really got me addicted on the genre was the show Zettai Kareshi. In fact, i discovered Zettai Kareshi because of Nodame.

Since we liked Soshi so much from Zettai, we looked for his shows and discovered Hana Kimi. From Hana Kimi, we liked Nakatsu and looked for his shows. Then we discovered real-life Nakatsu has a real-life bestfriend, who i now have huge crush on, and we've started watching his shows as well.

So since seeing Zettai last August, i've already seen and finished 8 jdrama series. The last jdrama that i saw is this show Voice, which is where K and I got the idea to play Pinoy Shiritori.

I got addicted to jdramas so much that i'm able to finish the whole series in just 2-3 days, and that's considering that i only just watch them after work. So a while back, i've taken a 3-week hiatus from them. And now, i try to limit myself to just one series per week. Oh yes, control!

I love jdramas because they are short (usually just 11 episodes) and are very well made even if it's just for TV -- the acting is good, the soundtrack is nice, and the stories are well thought of.

Anyway, next in the pipeline is probably another of Yamapi's show called Code Blue. I hope it's good. But with jdramas, i've never been very disappointed so far. And knowing that Yamapi is there anyway, i don't think i'll regret it. :D
