Japanese Drama and Movie Reviews


Welcome to my official compilation page of drama and movie reviews for Japanese entertainment. I will list these dramas/movies alphabetically for convenience' sake (so A - Z), with summaries, my personal star rating, cast lists for each drama/movie, and a link to the review.

My Rating System
★★★★★ - Love it so much that I'm seeing stars
★★★★ - Awesome story with maybe a couple of little niggly dislikes
★★★ - Not bad, not good, just has some inescapable issues
★★ - What did they think they were doing?
★ - Please, just stop. Why did I even finish this?

Here's a few important other pages: Avoid Thief Sites if You Can because they do exist and there are so many other ways to watch Jdramas than by using these sites, and, naturally, a page on VIKI vs. Fansubbers, because I find the fansubbers have a lot more Japanese content than than VIKI ever will.
