about a year ago my friend introduced me to a couple of japanese dramas called "shumuni" and "love generation". my first thought was "great, who would want to watch japanese soap opera’s?" turns out their seasons are pretty short (10-12 eps) and they usually run only one season (unless its good then it goes for another season later if your lucky). and some of these drama’s are pretty good! i’ve gotten hooked. i’d like to ask for recomendations on new (to me at least) japanese drama’s to watch
what i’ve seen:
Love generation
Gokusen season 1
Gokusen season 2
Beautiful life
Shumuni season 1
Nobuta wo produce
GTO
Strawberry on the shortcake
Long vacation
Hero
Star no koi
i live in the bay area and there is an international channel here (indian, korean, chinese, japanese shows) there is also the international channel on cable. some shows are downloadable or on dvd/vcd. didn’t know where else to post to put into TV section.
i checked out dragon zakura. you were right, it was pretty cool. but didn’t densha otoko turn out to be a hoax someone did to gain attention?
