As a super fan of Extraordinary Attorney Woo impatiently waiting for another season, I’m not sure yet if my appetite will be sated only one episode in.

I’m still stuck the dad’s shop makes onigiri instead of futomaki which is a reasonable switch with kimbap and the reasons Woo eats it so religiously. “Onigiri is life” just doesn’t resonate for me like “gimbap is life” 김밥은 삶입니다.

What does everyone else think so far?

In select theatres December 30, and nationwide January 15. I put in the title NA (North America) as GKIDS usually has releases for both countries, but definitely check if they may distribute it elsewhere around the world as there is limited information currently. If you were unable to catch the movie at a local film festival, I think deserves a watch even just because it's a rare Japanese live action theatrical release.

For anyone unfamiliar, it is based on Fujimoto Tatsuki's one shot manga of the same name. Director Kore-eda Hirokazu (Shoplifters, Monster, Nobody Knows, etc) saw the manga at a store and was intrigued, and it got the ball rolling after reading it. The film stars Deguchi Natsuki and Makita Aju.

Praise for the 22-year-old's acting in her first lead drama role in 10 years.

I am humbly asking jdrama fans to recommend similar shows to this masterpiece. I am officially declaring Japanese drama to be the king of all dramas. I watched arabic, Turkish, English andd Korean and I just can't go back yet

Hey guys!!

I've taken a little break from J-dramas, but I'm finally back!

I'm kicking things off by binge-watching Kissing the Ring Finger (Ousama ni Sasagu Kusuriyubi)!

For those of you who've already finished it, what did you think? Is it worth the binge? 👀

Also, I'm totally open to recommendations! I've got plenty of time and a LOT of dramas to catch up on, hahaha! 🤣

So hit me with your favorites! Hidden gems, underrated romances, anything you think I absolutely shouldn't miss!

I'm all ears!! 👀🍿

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a tv show set in Fukuoka? Or even somewhere close by in Kyushu? I've watched loads of Jdorama over the years but they are mostly set in Tokyo. I've become very nostalgic about my time in Fukuoka in the 90s so would love to find something set there.

Thank you :)

I see some in DailyM but it is in Indo sub.

"Attorney Minamida Minami Is a Genius" is a remake of the Korean drama "Attorney Woo Young-woo Is a Genius." The story is essentially the same. The key question is how much Mana Ashida can surpass the original through her acting skills. This time, the story didn’t fall apart, and the characters felt natural. However, it still seems as though Mana Ashida is too eager to copy the original protagonist. This drama will truly shine only when Mana Ashida is able to portray an autistic lawyer in her own unique way.

its on netflix, airing weekly with cast line up of yo oizumi, yamapi, sairi ito? two episodes out so far.

I have been looking for where I can watch this but I can’t find it anywhere 🥺

I absolutely love Hitsujibungaku, so this is just amazing.

Does anyone here have the subs for shanai shokeinin AKA in-house executioner? I cant find a free one

Am I the only one who didn’t see any villains here?

To me, it felt like a cosmic design! her first love was her soulmate, and his heart was the only way to lead her to her twin flame. They never meant to hurt anyone; they were just pulled together by fate.

The plot is so insane and I loved ittt. Nishijima Hidetoshi is perfect as always, ofc. The first episode pulls you in right away and bit by bit the mystery gets unveiled. I purposely didn't look up comments or reviews before watching and I think it's better to go in blind.

This show dropped on Netflix last week and finally managed to watch the first episode and it’s so good. Like a murder mystery type whodunit series. Next episode drops on Oct 23. Amazing cast as well! Put this on your list if you been looking forward to a Japanese murder mystery.
