i finished ryusei two mounts ago i like very much the drama, but the actuation of nino in the end i didnt like this much
I didn't like the end, period....
Anyway, halfway through it I thought I was gonna give it an 8/10 or even a 9/10, depending on how it went on...but then I didn't like that much the 2nd half and, most of all, I almost completely disliked the final episode (except the very last minutes, that is)...imho it's a big disappointment since it was well written (with witty dialogues and very funny moments, despite the main plot) and also well acted, both by the leads and by the supporting cast.
Such a shame to screw it with the ending, really...

Episode 13 of Shota no Sushi, seems like it's never going to end. Who would think that making sushi could be so intense, if you liked Tea Fight then you'd probably like this. _________________
Episode 9 of Bull Doctor, just o.k. I haven't been able to find out for sure, but I really hope this is only a ten episode drama.
LOL. Dramawiki says it's 11. I wish they'd just killed off Goro's character! He's so annoying.
I've finished JIN 2 - what a weep-fest from Jin! - and have started Control... must resist urge to take scissors to Fujiki's mop of hair... _________________

Finished epi 7 of Don Quixote. It was just okay. It might be better than I thought, I'm watching Ohsama no Resturan right now as well and that would make just about anything look bad. Still, Don Quixote is much better than Bull Doctor.

Finished watching Suekko Chounan Ane Sannin, I liked it a lot!
I found it somehow hard to believe that it's from 2003, as it has a much older flavour (in the best sense possible...I mean it totally looks like a classic from the 90's imho). Extremely well written, with many funny moments, and also very well acted by the female cast: Fukacchan is great as always, but also the mother-in-law and the 3 "elder sisters" of the title are very good (my personal fave among them being Harada Tomoyo - too bad her other dorama "Straight News" and "Dessin", if I'm not mistaken, have never been subbed! )
9/10
p.s.
I also watched the special episode of Beach Boys (shame on me, I only recently noticed that it had a special... ) and I liked that one as well...

Still watching from this season:
Soredemo, Ikiteyuku - still the best drama of the season
Yuusha Yoshihiro Maou to Shiro - still hilarious, still the funniest Jdramas I've seen in a long time
Zenkai Girl - still predictable, yet still the most enjoyable out of all getsu9 in the past year
Arakawa Under the Bridge - still quirky and fun
And I'm warming up to Ouran. It's now almost as fun as the anime, and definitely the best cross-dressing drama this season compared to the overhyped Ikemen desu ne or the very bad adaptation of HanaKimi. _________________

I noticed this has Takehiko Ono and Jun Fubuki in the cast.
I may have to check this one out.
IMO the cast is really great with real solid acting especially from Hikari. A must-watch actress from now on, and she's the only deserving one to win every single best actress accolades this season. Cast playing members of both grieving families do a wonderful job so far!
And Fubuki Jun, in one of the revelation ending scenes, gives a lengthy, heartbreaking monologue that pierces into your heart. It was astounding. _________________

Yuusha Yoshihiko to Maou no Shiro episode 6, the humor of this show reminds me of Monty Python (& the Holy Grail or Life of Brian) -> unusual but funny!

Finally wrapped up Shota no Sushi, 17 episodes is a bit long though to it's credit it never really dragged, hard to top the final 2 episodes either, intensity level for those set a new record. _________________

Fairies. I can't! Almost died laughing.
Honestly, I'm amazed at the efforts given by everyone's involved in this drama, given the cheap budget they're getting. _________________

Finishied epi 2 and yes, she is excellent. I didn't think I'd seen her before but I checked and she was in the asadora Hitomi. I think I remember her, but it was such a small part I'm not sure. Anyway, she's great in this!
Edit: Up thru epi 3. That scene were Eita reads the autopsy report was pretty intense.
I notice that whenever Eita is in a drama that doesn't have Juri Ueno in it, it's usually pretty good.

Episode 2 of KOI NI OCHITARA. Is it just me, or is Kusanagi Tsuyoshi WAY more fun to watch when he's beating up local thugs or bullying nursing home patients?
