Kimi wa petto: about a woman who takes a young man as a pet.

Hana Yori Dango (1&2): about a low class girl who falls in love with a richer guy.

Life (raifu): about a girl that gets bullied in high school.

Those are some of my favorites. My Soju should have all of them.

Mrs. Cinderella and Beautiful Life.

I echo Hana Yori Dango, but insist the anime is way, way, WAY better.

Also Nodame Cantible and Ace o Narae, but again, I think the anime versions are better.

Why are all these dramas 11 episodes long?

I think that might just be the way jdramas are... 11 to 13 episodes long. The longest I've seen are about 20 episodes.

Trust me, thats a good amount for Jdramas. Mexican dramas are good, but soooooo long. Some dramas lasted for 4 years and they were shown daily. After a while they got boring lol. Japanses dramas are awesome but short.

if u like romance i would recommend watching "Crying out Love, in the Center of the World". Its the best romance i seen and also sad. its old drama from 2004, but really good.

Kawatta 07-06-2009 06:56 PM

Id have to recommend "Akai Ito", that was the last jdrama i have seen that caught my intrest. Im definatly going to be checking out the ones listed on here though

I wouldn't mind some recommendations as well for maybe police/comedy type series. I mentioned in the other thread that I'm watching Mr. Brain and really enjoying it since it fits into that genre of humor and it's a police-based story...well, detective.

Are there any other good police/detective dramas around? Or some nice comedy dramas?

Also, how about a series based around everyday life stuff, like "At Home Dad", which I also really enjoyed. Now there's a series I wouldn't have minded lasting a few more episodes to see what the future holds for the family...even though it did skip ahead a little ways.

Look at American Dramas or "Soap Operas". Some of those have been ongoing since the 60s and still going strong. General Hospital comes to mind. I'm sure that started in the 1960s.

At least in other countries, their dramas eventually end.
