Things that make me go ‘huh?’
1. In the Hana Yori Dango section of ff.net, there is a story that is a word for word retelling of the drama Silence only with the names changed to the HYD characters (yup, it’s a Lei/SC romance with poor DMS being the evil Zuo Jun). Why? If people want Silence they can watch it. Silence even stars Vic Zhou so if you want to see him be Wei Yi, you can do so to your heart’s content. Huh?
2. Someone on d-addicts cracked me up by saying that they tried watching the jdrama Strawberry on the Shortcake (which I haven’t seen yet, but it’s![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
klmorgan recced and stars TH so I will soon) and decided that it was so interesting that from now on they won’t be prejudiced just because the jdrama actors aren’t as good looking as the ones in kdramas. Praiseworthy sentiment and all that, and I’d even agree with the poster that kdrama actors are hotter in general but…But…I’d be moved by such a ‘looks don’t matter’ approach except for the fact that SoS stars Takki! A drama that stars Takki is really not the testing ground for such a statement. Tastes differ and all that, but come on, have you seen him? One of the few times in my life I nearly swallowed my tongue was the first shot of him in Forbidden Love.
Manga News:
1. In volume 10 of Wallflower, even Ranmaru admits Sunako is Kyouhei’s girl. Heeee.
2. Saw first volume of Vampire Knights and it looks good. I really liked the mangaka’s previous MeruPuri.
Oh, and more on Tatta Hitotsu No Koi.
Best thing since...last drama I raved about. Seriously, I love it.
( ep 8 meta )
I couldn’t bear the angst of ep 8 so I ended up watching the end of ep 10. SQUEE. *dies*
( spoilers for the end of the drama )
