suckered by drama
Oct. 18th, 2006 05:52 pmsucker for classical music...
Nodame Cantabile 1! is surprisingly good. A small, CUTE boy, Chiaki, meets a great maestro in Europe and learns from him. Because of his parents' divorce, he has to move back to Japan. On the return trip, the plane has a bad landing scarring the boy for life so that he grows up not able to fly back to his beloved maestro. Noda is a girl who cannot read music well, but can play the piano by ear. She picks up a drunken Chiaki one night and falls in love with him.
+ There's a funny, funny flashback scene where you see the toy airplane on a string crashing.
+ Eto-sensei played by Toyohara Kosuke is attractive and humorous. He also played the humorous, bad guy in Densha Otoko.
+ The writers took the seemingly serious parts and made it so dramatic & kooky that it is very entertaining.
+ There are pretty settings and fun classical background music.
+ Ah♥ They played the same piano duet by Mozart that was featured in Ouran. (It's Mozart's Sonata in D K.448...for those who want to try it out)
+ Great acting and weird personalities make this more fun to watch than the Corda anime.
- This makes me a little curious about the manga.

sucker for food...
Teppan Shoujo Akane 1! Horikita Maki (from Nobuto wo Produce) plays Akane who is looking for her father who is a Teppan chef. She is also a Teppan chef. She gets to make and eat lotsa yummy-looking food! Maki can surprisingly act like a normal, dorky girl.
+ Yummy food.
- I feel fat watching her make the Akane Special.
+ This is another drama which features fun & outlandish personalities.
+ There's even dorky posing and special effects. (reminding me of Yakitate Japan).
almost a sucker for fashion...
Tatta Hitosu no Koi 1! This is Kame's new drama about a poor boy who works at a boatyard and a rich girl who goes to an elite school. Boy and his friends went illegal fishing one day. Girl runs into bucket o' fish. Boy and Girl detest each other. Boy and friends go to a rich people party. Boy meets girl again. Looooove. Overall, it's very boring, but the rich people have cute clothing. Kame isn't particularly handsome. He has that bump on his nose that Tom Cruise has...which I guess, must be an attractive feature. This drama isn't too interesting, so I'm not going to watch anymore...lala.
sucker for anime...as always,
D. Grayman 3! Allen and Kanda are paired up for a mission. The concept of the Finders is explained. Is it my screen or is the action parts of the anime too dark to see details? Maybe its a new way of keeping the budget low. The first half of the anime was fun. The second half pretty dull. A few more and then I think I may drop this.
