Looking at Fall 2013 Jdoramas

JDORAMAS THAT SHOULD BE SUBBED

1. LINK

WOWOW Police and conspiracy show with Omori Nao, Tanaka Rena, Mimura and Kinpachi sensei? Hopefully this will help Tanaka Rena forget she was ever in that abomination Gekiryuu. Please be good. Please be good. Please be good.

2. KAGI NO NAI YUME WO MIRU

Just realised this show is finished. Look at that cast. Downloading now and can't wait to watch.


JDORAMAS THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE SUBBED


1. UMI NO UE TO SHINRYOJO

Funny concept of island hopping doctor who falls in love easily. Its got Matsuda Shota and Arakawa Yoshiyoshi. The bad thing is that its got Takei Emi who brought down the Kenshin movie with her unnecessary monologue.


2. TOKYO TOY BOX

A dorama about making games? Not something you see everyday. Could be very interesting depending on the script.



3. TOKYO BANDWAGON

Reasons to watch - Tabe Makiko + Mimura + writer wrote Last Present and Lunch no Joou and Detroit Metal City
Reasons not to watch - Kame + writer wrote Buzzer Beater


4. DANDARIN

Takeuchi Yuko + show about Japanese workplace practices? Could be interesting. I want to see it deal with Japanese doing unpaid overtime and not being able to take more than a few days or at most a week off work.

5. DOKUSHIN KIZOKU 

When I see Kitagawa Keiko, I am instantly reminded of Lady. That show marked a new low in stupidity for spy jdoramas. The preview for Dokushin Kizoku does give off the vibe of three KDO like characters getting together. There's a possibility it could be a Nojima Shinki style smart and funny show. The writer also wrote Koi ni Ochitara and Unfair so can't really tell. Might be watchable but I would not bet on it.


JDORAMAS THAT SHOULD NOT BE SUBBED


1. ANDO LLOYD

Kimutaku hasn't been responsible for any show being decent since Pride (I still can't get over what he did to Karei Naru Ichizoku) and Suspect X would have been perfect without Shibasaki Kou. From the writer that brought us the Keizoku series and Yanpapa. The only way it could work if its as quirky as Keizoku and Kimutaku stops playing himself. These two have no goodwill from me to want to find out.

2.  MISS PILOT

She can't act and doesn't have screen presence, wtf is she still getting pushed?

3. 49

WTF!!!!! Why is Nojima Shinji writing this? Either he must need money badly or someone's got pictures of him with an AKB48 girl. Dead father possessing son's body could be funny if the show doesn't look an idol promotion. On second thought, this should not be subbed because I cringe at the thought of watching basketball in jdoramas because its not a sport you can fake. I checked the Japanese wiki just to be sure. WOWOW, what are you doing? Surely you can pay Nojima Shinji double for whatever he's making to write this? Just had a look at the CM and no way this can good. Nojima Shinji WTF?

4. LEGAL HIGH 2

Couldn't finish the first series and I'm sick of Sakai Masato's overacting although in this case its appropriate since its a comedy. Legal show that's less about law and more about sentimental parables, no thanks.

5. KEIJI NO MANAZASHI

This show lost me at 'Despite the heartrending pain he has been through, he still tries to believe in people. The look in his eyes unsettles criminals and gains the trust of tight-lipped parties involved in cases.'

6. SEQUELS ABOUT LEGS AKA TOSHI DENSETSU ONNA AND DOCTOR X

I love legs as much as any guy but this is getting ridiculous. Obviously legs rate well enough in Japan.


7. KUROKOUCHI

Gourike Ayame as a detective? Um, how old is she? Old enough for police cadet school but detective? Next thing you know, Ueto Aya will be playing a police detective.


8. HONEY TRAP

I like the supporting cast and would give it a try if it were an NHK or WOWOW show. Lol at Moriyama's gangster hair.


9. ASAKI YUMEMISHI

WTF. WTF decided she could act?
