http://www.youtube.com

I watch videos there from time to time, but it never occured to me to search for J-ent stuff. So I recently did, and there's surprisingly a good amount of stuff there. Specials, music videos (fan-made ones too), CMs, OPs, EDs, clips, and even full episodes of dramas! I searched for Hana Yori Dango and someone even uploaded the whole anime series on there . The quality isn't the greatest, but it's fast access to videos if you have DSL or higher. Try it out, you might be surprised what you find. We can also use this topic to post some interesting stuff. Use the search function!

Updated 10/28/06: Well, it's useless to to list anything now.

Yeah, someone brought this site to my attention recently as well...

Does anyone have idea how to save those Macromedia Flash files locally to disk?

i believe i read somewhere you could get them using greasemonkey (plugin for firefox) and the script to run afterwards is the second link below:

Thanks, I'll try it out.

YouYube is very good . I watched Gokusen and Kimi Wa Petto there.
Not only they have J drama, there are also Taiwanese drama, Korean dramas and all kinds of other shows.
It is good. Only drawback, the buffering take a long time sometimes.

Yep. Am tapping into it now

yeah youtube is awesome. i recently started using it to watch nobuta wo produce.

to counter the buffering, just pause it at the start and switch it to silent mode (there's a lil icon at the bottom of the video box). then let the vid download all the way to the end. then, they'll have a green button which says "replay this video". click on it and you won't have the annoying buffer thing =D

thats where i upload my jhiphop music videos too anyone else here a member too?

Ahahaha! I've seen many, many, many videos of people lip-synching to the Numa Numa song, but that is by far the best one. What is that from, SmapXSmap?

I love youtube...even though its usually the one website that keeps me from doing my homework for hours and hours. Its nice to be able to watch lots of video clips without having to download them all.

thanks for the buffering solution....i'll keep that in mind and try it out.

lol.. youtube is certainly great. There's like, countless vids in there! although the quality could be a little bit better, but it truly is a great site!

YouTube got me started on doramas:

1. Nobuta wo Produce
2. Gokusen
3. Hana Yori Dango
4. Ichi Ritoru no Namida (1 Liter of Tears - finished ep. 2) <i>[I'm taking a break from Matsujun in the meantime. I was debating on whether to watch 1 Liter or Kimi wa Petto first...]</i>

I am at awe of the people who upload doramas on there. Such patience! And because YouTube has a 100mb limit, some episodes have to be divided into two or even four parts! It can be a bummer when a very intense scene just cuts abruptly, but what can we do, right? ^___^

YouTube has changed my life!

Oh, and btw, wouldn't it be nice if we kept a database of doramas available on there?

That's a good idea.

Hi:)

I'm also addicted to youtube:D

there is a lot of dramas, also:

Gachibaka (but I think it was just started, as only 2 episodes in english and one raw)
Densha Otoko
Gokusen 2 (raw)
Pink no Idenshi (haven't watched yet)
The file of young kindaichi 3
Meteor Garden (not exactly japanese:P)
Stand Up! (but I have a feeling it's just final episode @@)

This is what I found so far:} plus those one you mentiones before:)

Muka

Thanks for sharing it. That is by far the funniest one I have seen.
