Yet more ramblings...
May. 9th, 2007 12:44 amOh, Taiyou No Kisetsu.
Shinji, shut the hell up. Seriously. I used to like you, but wtf. Talk about inapproproate boundaries. When he tries to interfere between Tatsuya and Eiko and later asks Tatsuya who is more important to him, he Shinji or Eiko like the answer 'Shinji' should be obvious? WTF. He is not your boyfriend. The guy clearly has a god complex.
But I love it how Tatsuya just freaks when he thinks Shinji's words might make her leave and runs looking for her and finds her and tells her she is not a burden and then he actually comes clean to the rich kids and Shinji about Eiko and his friend and everything. Love. Though Shnji will probably murder him now.
And OMG, the scene with him and his friend racing and Eiko 'refereeng' and then OMG OMG the scene with the piano where she teaches him to play and it's such a delight. I love.
I also watched the ending of the drama, not just that one little bit.
Even though I haven't yet watched the intervening 4+ hours, if they wanted to make me cry, they succeeded. But the whole kissing of the dying girl, and running the race anyway because she made him, and screaming her name and collapsing and then at the end some timelater he is walking and he is thinking she isn't dead because he remembers her so 'I have no choice but to live' and waaaaaaaah.
WAAAAH.
I know Takki angsts beautifully but I want a fluffy drama with him now.

I need to see this drama because you keep posting about it and make me want to watch it despite the fact that I normally avoid sad dramas (unless they're Ichi Rittoru No Namida) like the plague...

Date: 2007-05-09 01:06 pm (UTC)I did check out the ending even before even starting properly on it, because the 'voiceover of doom' in the beginning made me certain it was probably going to end badly :P.
And I still haven't restarted on MnJ yet...

How far are you? MnJ is one of my faves, my third most favorite jdrama (behind Pride and Kurosagi and tied with Beautiful Life (or above it depending on my mood)). It has angst and gorgeous Takki and a happy ending. What more could one want? :)
I think you are the only person who is watching more dramas at the same time than I am :)

Date: 2007-05-09 03:43 pm (UTC)I'm halfway through MnJ, the last episode I watched was no.5, so I haven't even gotten to the majorly angsty parts yet. But I'm fickle and my drama watching depends very much on my mood, so I just haven't felt like starting on it again. At the moment I'm much more interested in continuing with Taiyou no Kisetsu and, of course, my current #1 passion is Yamapi's ProDai :).
I also have a practical reason for continuing TnK, since it currently takes almost half the space on my computer's harddrive (=measly 30Gb) and I'm starting to run out of room :P.

Date: 2007-05-14 05:18 am (UTC)I didn't like BDNM (the heroine annoyed the heck out of me) but it is fluffy. How about Strawberry on Shortcake? haven't seen it but it's with Takki and has a happy end.
