2023 winter jdorama

Get Ready (10.2) Stars: Tsumabuki Satoshi, Fujiwara Tatsuya Synopsis: A group of underground doctors/nurses do the operations no one else would do for a high price

I tried watching this just for the two leads alone, but it was very hard to get into. It's definitely not possible to suspend disbelief if you have even an ounce of medical knowledge. Curing someone who's had a stroke and someone with stage 4 cancer takes more than an operation. The medical case is really a backdrop to some reflective social commentary but that commentary wasn't memorable either. And despite Tsumabuki and Fujiwara both being great actors, the characters are kinda bland and difficult to care about.

Hyakumankai ieba yokatta (7.4) Stars: Satou Takeru, Inoue Mao, Matsuyama Kenichi Synopsis: A guy's spirit gets trapped on Earth, and the only way for him to communicate with his girlfriend is via a detective who's been assigned to solve his presumed death.

The premise is apparently similar to the 1990 American movie "Ghost". I'm surprised it rated as poorly as it did, because these three stars all have decent audience draw, and the story itself is interesting so far. It starts off a bit slow if you didn't know the premise, but the interactions between all three main characters are cute. Inoue is carrying the emotional heart of the scenes while Matsuyama is doing some heavy lifting with the acting (and you could see why such a good actor was requested for the secondary male role).

Themis no Kyoushitsu (10.5) Stars: Kitagawa Keiko Synopsis: A judge returns to her alma mater to take on a teaching role, but her special interest in ethics and practical law puts her at odds with the star tutor of the university whose methods aim at getting the students to pass the exams.

"The goddess of justice, Themis, holds a set of scales in one hand, and a sword in another - this signifies that justice requires both to be effective. Without the scales, justice is merely an aggressive bully; without a sword, justice is weak and ineffective."

This has become more and more of a topic of interest in a lot of academically demanding courses, e.g. medicine and law. Is it more important for students to pass the theoretical exams, or is it more important for them to understand the ethics of what they're doing -- and is there any point to learn the latter if they can't get through the former? I think it's a very important subject to raise. Ideally you want a doctor or law-person who has fantastic knowledge and has considered the ethics of what they're doing, but time, money and memory are all finite resources. These are also two professions who pride themselves on being dispassionate and "practical", but is that the correct attitude to take into a situation where your decision has longlasting impact on many people's lives? So I think a show that focuses on the benefit of understanding ethics - of understanding why it's important to protect the rights of the accused - is worthwhile in a society that's all too happy to condemn people based on very minimal snatches of facts.

If you're here just for Kitagawa Keiko, it actually doesn't centre her much...which is probably a good thing because her acting is annoying me again.

themis no kyoshitsu: legal seishun hakusho is out right?? i wanna watch itttttt

[iristial]

Hideyoshi's going to work be in Fumiya's new drama Densetsu no Head Sho, which means the circle of actors playing my favourite Reiwa main Riders (thus far) collaborating for a post-toku production is complete!! Not to mention Hiroe Igeta and Daisuke Nakagawa are also part of the cast so this doubles as a mini Zero One cast reunion ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

[narashikari]

the context for the where is fuwa ask is the "Oh no Ikki don’t beat up your senpai!!! (Where’s Touma when you need him?!)" post XD lol btw, what is the title of that jdrama?

Oh that... yeah I guess he'd throw hands at Ikki if he dared to touch his Aruto

The drama is called Themis no Kyoshitsu: Legal Seishun Hakusho. Aside from Fumiya Takahashi and Kentaro Maeda, it also stars Yuki Yamada (Joe from Gokaiger)... and Mamoru Miyano??

If I had a penny for every drama in which Kentaro Maeda co-starred with someone who played Suoh Tamaki I'd have two pennies... it's not much but it's weird it's happened twice XD

I've started a Takahashi Fumiya and Shison Jun drama hunt cus of gifs I seen from fermat cuisine by you and the couple other people making gifs ehehehe. That show was sooo good and now I need to find more good movies/shows w them in it! Other than fermat I only ever saw the yu yu hakusho live action (which I loved even if they were forced to condense too much into 5 eps, the actors and fight choreo was niiiice) haha. Do you know other shows or films w either of them you rec??

Actually nonnie I'm only new to Jdramas so I haven't really been able to check out their ENTIRE filmography (T . T) But I'll list out the ones I've watched (quite a lot more fumiya than jun stuff unfortunately) and maybe you can try checking them out if you'd like.

Takahashi Fumiya films/series

our secret diary (2023) - film, super cute sweet basic high school romance. not groundbreaking or anything but like a delicious dish of dessert you know you're going to enjoy. i think it's a total must watch if you're looking for a lighthearted romcom.

kimi no hana ni naru (2022) - series, fumiya plays ML and leader of a flopping boygroup. i'm not a huge fan of noona romance (FL is ML's former high school teacher) but that wasn't really the problem for me here. i just had qualms with FL's acting and fumiya was hard carrying for the entire series tbh. the music is VERY good (really feel good generic bg music *\(^o^)/*. fumiya looks extremely good in this series tho (understandable since he's playing an idol) |(￣3￣)| available on netflix.

themis no kyoshitsu: legal seishun hakusho (2023) - series, it's a law school drama and fumiya plays supporting role as one of the students. maybe it's because i watched other law tbs dramas so this one was underwhelming for me but i watched it just for fumiya and thought it was alright.

waru: hataraku no ga kakko warui nante dare ga itta (2022) - series, fumiya plays a lovable intern who has a crush on quirky FL (plays by the fabulous imada mio whom i adore). i had the worst 2ml syndrome and although i'm kinda glad FL technically doesn't end up with anyone i was stilllll rooting for fumiya's character so much. fumiya has more screentime than i initially thought and i loveeeee his character in this one (an adorable cutie).

saiai (2021) - series, fumiya plays a supporting role in this thriller mystery drama. i really liked this one but it wasn't because of fumiya, his screentime was minimal but the suspense was good. he's got that soft babie fumiya look for this one. it felt like a makjang kdrama. i recommend if you're in the mood for something thrilling (i think it's available on netflix as my dearest?).

bokura ga koroshita, saiai no kimi (2021) - series, fumiya plays the lead role in this thriller romance. i don't like series that leave me with way too many questions at the end so it was frustrating but fumiya's acting was insane so it was worth it. but very bloody and mild gore so trigger warning for that.

muchuu-sa, kimi ni (2021) - series, i think this was my first ever fumiya series but at the time i watched it i just thought it's a cute bromance series. kinda a strange dorama but it's healing and soft in a way.

divoc-12 (2022) - film, it's an anthology film so like a collection of short films so it's just 10 min really. i just watched it because CURLY HAIR FUMIYA.

Shison Jun films/series

joshiteki seikatsu (2018) - series, wonderfully heartwarming short series where jun plays a fabulous transgirl. i love it so much you can see i have started giffing for this series even though the raw quality is god awful (T . T)

gokushufudo (2020) - series, i ADORE this series. the premise is so wacky like it's about an ex yakuza/mafia dude adjusting to his new life as a house husband. jun plays an underling of ex-yakuza who assists him with various tasks. it's so funny i almost died laughing watching this one ✌︎('ω')✌︎.

high & low the worst and the worst x (2019 and 2022) - films, jun plays the lead role in this action comedy. i had fun watching but i wasn't really invested in this story. but like the acting and the music is excellent. if you like yu yu hakusho, i think you'll enjoy these films. both are available on netflix last time i checked.

i know that this answer probably wasn't that helpful but i hope once you start going down that takahashi fumiya or shison jun rabbit role, you'll find some series that you'll enjoy ٩( ᐛ )و
