Ai no Uta [あいのうた] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) The story was a little underdeveloped but it was quite cute. The acting was also a bit weak. | Aikurushii [あいくるしい]
| Akai Ito [赤い糸] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) This was kind of a disappointment. |
Akai Umei [赤い運命]
| Akihabara@DEEP [アキハバラ@DEEP] Rating: 7/10 <3 Ikuta toma | Anego [アネゴ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) This drama was tolerable. At some points I wanted to give up watching it but in the end I watched it all. There's no real chemistry between the actors so it's real disappointing. |
Anna-san no Omame [アンナさんのおまめ]
| Antique [アンティーク〜西洋骨董洋菓子店] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) Personally I thought this drama was quite original and quirky; however, I think it missed the mark a little in organization and direction. The acting in general was fantastic. Not a bad watch. | Aru Ai no Uta [ある愛の詩]
|
Asuka e, Soshite Mada Minu Ko e [飛鳥へ、そしてまだ見ぬ子へ]
| Atashinchi no Danshi [アタシんちの男子] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Reminded me alot of Hana Kimi but still great and funny. Especially ep 6 | Atsu-Hime [篤姫]
|
Attention Please [アテンションン プリース] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) I was pleasantly surprised by this drama. I watched Ueto Aya in another drama and thought she was the worst actress but in this drama she did a pretty good job. | Bambino! [バンビーノ!] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) As much as I love MatsuJun, this drama wasn't that fun for me. It was actually kind of boring. | Bara no nai Hanaya [薔薇のない花屋] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) The little girl is sooo cute in this drama. I really loved this drama and seeing Katori Shingo is this drama made me think he would make a really good father. I think Matsuda Shota likes to have roles where he gets beat up. Oh well. This is definitely a must watch. |
Beautiful life [ビューティフルライフ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Sometimes it felt like the problems shuji and kyoko faced were repeated and over exaggerated some times but otherwise this was a very good drama. KimuTaku did a really good job. | Binbo Danshi [貧乏男子 (ボンビーメン)] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Good to see Oguri Shun in a different character. | Boku no Imoto [ぼくの妹]
|
Brother Beat [ブラザー☆ビート]
| Byakuyakou [白夜行] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I first that this drama would be way to melodramatic and not entertaining. I was very wrong. This drama was intense but every minute was worth it. | Dandori [ダンドリ]
|
Delicious Gakuin [美味學院]
| Densha Otoko [電車男] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) This kind of drama is very rare for obvious reasons but was executed extremely well. Very impressive | Dragon Zakura [ドラゴン桜]
|
Edison no Haha [エジソンの母] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Despite have a plain plot, the acting was great and was very interesting. | First Kiss [ファースト・キス] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Inoue Mao was as amazing as ever. This story is a little cliche but I really love how the story is more about the relationship between the brother and sister. | Friends [フレンズ] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Friends was too short for me. The time span they covered was too long for the duration of the drama. I really like the couple and I think the idea of the drama is amazing and the acting wasn't so bad either |
Gal Cir [ギャルサ]
| Ganbatte Ikimasshoi [がんばっていきまっしょい]
| Gekidan Engimono - Ie ga Tooi [劇団演技者 - 家が遠い]
|
Godhand Teru [ゴッドハンド輝]
| Gokusen [ごくせん] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Gokusen is a very funny drama and a good pick-me-up. The acting is good, but I think that some situations are way too melodramatic. Almost as if the actors were too girly. | Gokusen Season 2 [ごくせん2] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Not as good as the first one but worth watching |
GTO [麻辣教師] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I really loved this drama. It was so interesting to see so many of my favorite actors/actresses at such a young age. | H2~Kimi to itahibi [2〜君といた日々]
| Hachimitsu to Kuroba [ハチミツとクローバー] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Narumi Rika is absolutely amazing. She's only 16 and has already proven that she can play several different roles. I really enjoyed this drama. Especially cause Ikuta Toma is in it |
Haikei, Chichiue-sama [拝啓、父上様] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) The ending was way to vague. It didn't even seem like an ending. But the plot and the acting were superb. | Hana Yori Dango [花より男子] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I think Hana Yori Dango is the best drama I ever watched. I think there is a lot of expectations the actors had to overcome since it is such a loved manga and I think they all were able to do so wonderfully. I especially liked it because it wasn't an average cliche. | Hana Yori Dango Season 2 [花より男子] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) The first season ended in a good enough place that you don't necessarily need to watch the second season, but if you do have time to watch the second season, there's no doubt you'll fall in love with Hana Yori Dango all over again. Even in such an unrealistic setting, the feelings, worries, and problems are very much real. Now that I've seen such a great drama, I expect the same out of all jdramas. |
Hanazakari no Kimitachi e [花ざかりの君たちへ] Rating: 10/10 (Watched) Definitely on my list of favorites. | Himitsu no Hanazono [ヒミツの花園] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) The beginning was a little bit boring but the ending was perfect | Hito ni Yasashiku [人にやさしく / 3ピース] Rating: 10/10 (Watched) I think this will always be my favorite drama. It's a must watch. |
Hitomi [瞳]
| Hokaben [ホカベン]
| Hotaru no Hikari [ホタルノヒカリ] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) This is when I first noticed how good of an actress Ayase Haruka is. |
hoteriaa [ホテリアー] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) Ueto Aya's acting is so stiff. She's terrible at portraying any emotion other then happiness. Other then that, the acting was pretty good and while the plot was a little predictible, it was a cute story. | Ichi Ritoru no Namida [1リットルの涙] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) It's really hard to believe that this drama is based on a true story. Powerful story. | Innocent Love [イノセント・ラヴ]
|
Itsumo futari de [いつもふたりで]
| Jotei [女帝] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I loved this drama so much that I watched it in one sitting. People may not like it because it's different than most japanese dramas but I think it was simply amazing. I would have loved to see a little more development in certain areas but I think the cast was very well picked. | Juken no Kamisama [受験の神様]
|
Jyoou no Kyoushitsu [女王の教室]
| Kaze no Haruka [風のハルカ]
| Kekkon Dekinai Otoko [結婚できない男] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) This drama was a little slow for me but Abe Hiroshi is great as always. |
Kiken na Aneki [危険なアネキ] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) I thought this drama was really cute. But there's no way they could be brother and sister. haha | Kimi wa Petto [きみはペット] Rating: 5/10 (Watched) At first I thought this drama was kind of lame. The main character is just so ridiculously hard to like, but I love Jun Matsumoto so I gave it the benefit of the doubt. I ended up not hating it, but I feel like the acting was very forced. There wasn't really much chemistry between the characters and that put me off a lot. Jun did a lot better job acting in Gokusen and Hana Yori Dango. Koyuki was amazing as everyone knows but I still cannot see this as a good drama. It was more like a waste of time. | Kindaichi shonen no Jikenbo (2005) [金田一少年の事件簿]
|
Kirakira Kenshui [きらきら研修医] Rating: 7/10 This drama was a little on the boring side but there were plenty of cute and funny moments. | Koi ni Ochitara ~Boku no Seikou no Himitsu~ [恋におちたら〜僕の成功の秘密〜]

| Koizora [恋空] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Loved every minute of it | Kou Kou Kyoushi 2003 [高校教師 2003] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) I thought some of the plot was a little strange, but I really liked the story between the two main characters. |

Lunch no Joou [ランチの女王] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) It didn't really have an ending and left alot of things open ended which i hate. But everything else was pretty good. I think they could have chosen a better main actress though. | Majo no jouken [魔女の条件]
| Maou [魔王]

| Nobuta wo Produce [野ブタ。をプロデュース] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) This definitely wasn't my favorite drama, but it had it's moments. Yamapi was so cute though. His character Akira is super adorable. | Nodame Cantabile [のだめ カンタビ−レ] Rating: 10/10 (Watched) I absolutely loved every minute of it. Ueno Juri and Tamaki Hiroshi were both amazing. All of it was great |
Orange Days [オレンジデイズ] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I was pretty moved by this drama. Satoshi Tsumabuki is amazing and his co-star was pretty amazing too. This is definitely a must watch for any Jdrama lover | Orthros no Inu [オルトロスの犬]

|
Otokomae! [オトコマエ!]
| Otomen [オトメン(乙男)]
| Proposal Daisakusen [プロポーズ大作戦] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) I really enjoyed this drama and this drama got me into japanese dramas in general. It's a must see since YamaPi is just so cute! I didn't like the ending but I got to say that at least the ending wasn't cliche. Watch it! |

| Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi [空から降る一億の星] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) I can't see why people would think that this drama was amazing but I do see it's strong points. The acting was superb but the plot itself was weak. |
Strawberry on the shortcake [ストロベリー・オンザ・ショートケーキ] Rating: 5/10 (Watched) It's definitely not the best drama I've seen but there were a lot of good points to this drama. | Summer snow Rating: 8/10 (Watched) This is definitely the first time I've seen something like this. I loved it very much. | Sushi Oji! [スシ王子!] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) I thought this drama was actually kind of cute. However, the acting was a little poor |

Definitely a good watch | Teppan Shoujo Akane [鉄板少女アカネ] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) The acting in this drama was pretty terrible. Even Horikita Maki couldn't save it.

It was a lot like the movie except more thoughtfully planned out. | Yama Onna Kabe Onna [山おんな壁おんな] Rating: 6/10 (Watched) This was officially one of the weirdest dramas i've ever watched. Although it has it's moments, it's pretty boring. | Yamada Taro Monogatari [山田太郎ものがたり] Rating: 8/10 (Watched) Hilarious and heart warming. Great Acting by nino and sho. |
Yan Papa [やんパパ] Rating: 9/10 (Watched) Loved every minute of it | Yaoh [夜王〜YAOH〜] Rating: 7/10 (Watched) It wasn't bad.
