>>12727568
what dorama are you watching anon?
If it's GoT, you have shit taste

Zenigata Yui, the only drama worth watching

>>12727554
I feel kinda awkward watching a cast of entirely squinty eyed nips for 40 minutes and I can't get into it. Am I racist?

>>12727780
why are you even in /jp/?

>>12727822
2D > 3D is all I'm sayin'.

d-addicts is kill

how am i supposed to torrent my dramas now

>>12727554
Just finished the entirety of Nodame Cantabile, movies and all, and I was impressed. I recommend it to anyone that likes classical music.

What is the name of this drama im watching? It comes on tv but i dont know the name. Its about a guy who confesses to the murder of girl which he didnt do because of pressure from a magazine journalist and there are a bunch of crooked police

>>12728344
>name of this drama im watching?
>not checking the tvjapan site

...

So they got Katy Perry for Massan. How good is this show?

>>12728403
I can't watch it - it's too campy for me, even when compared to other Japanese dramas. But I guess if you're really into the story or really want to see a foreign woman get absolutely shat on in Japan, it's worth a watch.

>>12727554
>>12727641
Epic xD

So where's everyone getting their drama fix now that d-addicts is kill?

>>12728779
Honesly, i google and looking for sub-group. They usually have torrents.

Kazoku Game.Pretty impressed

>>12729943
The movie is miles better.

literally 10 years worth of torrents is kill

probably the Japanese government hiring American lawyers and then putting a gag order on the administrator

>tfw was gonna watch Katori's Yomigaeru Kinrou ;____;

why the fuck do you have to take down the old dramas. it's not even licensed for America and Japan only sells them in fucking VHS or maybe DVD

Rewatching based Hanzawa Naoki for the fifth time.

old, but what was with the hype about kaseifu no mita? how do people even come up with that kind of shit

Are the Honey and Clover doramas worth watching?

>>12728262
Nodame's actor had a more creepy aura than I expected. It really put me off.

>>12732339
>Are the Honey and Clover doramas worth watching?
I enjoyed it greatly, more than the film.

>>12732409
Which one should I watch? Supposedly there are two series adaptations for it if I recall correctly.

>>12732497
Hmm, I only know of the one with Ikuta Toma.

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Hachimitsu_to_Clover

>>12727830
Then go to /a/

New to doramas here. I have only seen Densha Otoko. Any more essential doramas?

FUCK YES SEASON 3

>>12736729
That was the first I watched and followed it up with Amachan. 10/10 show.

>>12736792

yessss but how will i find subs without d list

>>12727554
if you like 90's shit, then watch Ikebukuro west gate park.
It is awesome.

Also. More good 90's dramas plz

>>12727554

Minna Esper Dayo is pretty fun. It might not be serious stuff but it makes me laugh and there are lots of WTF moments. I love these midnight dramas.

>>12736729

depends on what you like.

if you enjoy romantic comedies for family audiences:

buzzer beat
nobuta wo produce
proposu daisakusen
hana kimi (the first one)
marumo no okite

if you like seinen stuff:

kekkon dekinai otoko
stand up
boys on the run
moteki
any kimutaku drama except that shitty robot one

if you like thrillers and other dark stuff:

hanzawa naoki
kurokouchi
hitori shizuka
long goodbye
queen's classroom
byakuyakou

source: i've been watching jdramas for like 10 years now.

>>12736729
>Densha Otoko

This looks like an interesting show. Where do you all download these from? I've never watched a dorama before.

just downloaded first ep of Aoi Honoo

gonna decide if it's good then i'll download the rest

what site u guys use to find jdrama torrents?

>>12737450
for new stuff, jdramacity

someone on d-addicts backed up their torrents so use that for older stuff

>>12737373
I can't believe that they never finished subbing that. Definitely the funniest, weirdest drama of that season.

>>12737825
asiatorrents.me is also pretty decent, always gots the new stuff from pretty much every asian country.
invite only, i got 1 invee

>>12737417
I get mine from livejournal communities, though the deletion of Megaupload some years back has taken quite a toll on what's available.

>>12737825
Where is this backup?

>>12738364
check the thread about no more torrents.

Any news if anybody's subbing the new Legal High SP?

This drama made me cry

and loved this one too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcPRK3hjrhY

anyone else watching this? this show is hilarious. the nun really steals the show

>>12740393
I can't stand Nishikido, so I can't bring myself to watch it. It's a shame, because Mitsushima Hikari is amazing.

>>12737373
I searched a lot but I couldn't find it subbed anywhere
any hints?

>>12737417
Densha Otoko is a legend.. He's a God among other otaku.

>>12738280
Which communities do you speak of?

>>12741730
I found the show subbed on BakaBT; really liking it. Are there any other well-done otaku-related dramas?

>>12737373
did they finally subbing it again?
I think it stopped at episode 3 for the translation.

>>12738280
rip millions of link in my notepad
;_;

Reminds me i need to finish watching solitary gourmet.

>>12741714
the fansub wiki lists a few groups. in general you should check there first

>>12741751
The main one that I know of is plot_boxes, but I'm not sure if they're open for membership now.

>>12741755
there are two groups. one stopped halfway the other finished

>>12737313
kimutaku dramas
beach boys
GTO

>>12740393
it's great, i'm enjoying it

>>12742432
great, time to google. Thx for the info btw.

Densha Otoko is great. I'm really looking forward to watching more doramas. Thanks, /jp/!

I apologize in advance for the off-topic post, but I'm feeling very emotional right now and I have no one to talk to. I just wanted to say that it makes me so happy knowing that you're all there, in your homes, staring at the same image board that I'm staring at. We may have different interests, but what connects us is our passion for them. Keep doing what you do, and stay true to yourself. Happiness is within you to enjoy.

What drama would you recommend to someone who's used to watch american TV shows only?

What's your top 3 in general?

Asking because I noticed that I don't know shit about drama, just watched like 2 toku and 3 drama.
Are there any drama that are more action or sci-fi/horror/fantasy oriented?
Bonus point for original creations.

>>12762075

if toku is okay, garo or gaim.

if regular tv, kurokouchi is a good bet for action. some people like mozu, but i didnt.

>>12758592

watched the first episode

It was funny but it offers nothing new from those 'awkward girl gets all the guys' dramas

http://www.japantimes.co.jp/community/2014/11/10/issues/foreign-wives-of-japan-offer-nhk-and-massan-criticism-and-kudos

>>12766323
it couldve been worse. they couldve got triendl reina

tfw will be finally able to watch dramas after finals are over

Oh my god, Mitsushima Hikari steals my heart.
Her character is amazing.
Her hair and the cute outfits she wears are ridiculous.

The show itself is just excellent.
NEVER GIVE UP!

>>12740393
Where are you guys watching it?

My favorites: Tiger & Dragon, Kekkon Dekinai Otoko, Nobuta wo Produce, Byakuyakou, Sora kara furu ichioku no hoshi

Currently watching: Dear Sister.

It's pretty good. Like the casting.

>>12780993
jdramacity for raws, daddicts for subs

>>12782042
keeps telling me the torrent failed

>>12784465
try yyets then

Did anyone watch Kazokugari? I don't normally like TBS, but this one was rather well done. The show does a good job of trying to throw viewers off with red herrings, so the reveal of the culprit is actually surprising. The only problem I had was the usual TBS sentimentality, which feels really out of place in a psychological thriller

>>12784465
Yeah it seems quite a few a broken

Picked up Kurofuku Monogatari because a friend told me to watch it and I had some free time... jesus christ, I can't tell if this show is shit because of the bland plot and cast or because the main actors are so bad at acting.

Where can I find a download of Mother? I've been lost ever since d-addicts was kill.

Wow, had no idea they decided to kill the torrents section.

>>12740393
Started watching for Mitsushima Hikari, and she's perfect, as expected.

Then, 2.5 episodes in, I finally realized Kuroshima Yuina was Nakai.

Thank you for introducing me to this.

Bump for more suggestions pls

>>12797038
its out but no subs yet

Anybody watching "N no Tame ni"? If so how is it?

Is there anything like a japanse netflix

dramas are such a fucking pain to find and honestly i'm so sick of it i honestly wouldn't mind paying a little every month inb4 there is but no gaijin allowed

>>12802728
Hulu exists in Japan, though I dunno what their selection is. There's also sites like Viki that have dramas, and there's always asiatorrents too.

Are there any doramas that feature people that make noise?

>>12804825
Nagase's character in Unubore Deka fits that description okay, I think.

>>12803704
Hulu has a decent selection of Japanese dramas, but I don't know if they're available in other countries outside of Japan or not.

>>12804842
>Nagase's character in Unubore Deka fits that description okay, I think.
Sorry, I should have clarified what I meant by "noise". I was referring to the genre of music. Actually, any recommendations for doramas that heavily feature sub-cultures would be appreciated.

>>12804842
There's gooddrama but the quality is shit

There are various sites that have torrents but jdramas don't have many subbers. It's usually one person doing it so it can be rather slow.

>>12797038
damn whats taking so long?

Is there a way to get around the "must seed" rule on asiatorrents?

>>12812057
You can go about spoofing but there's always a chance you'll get caught and then banned so wouldn't be worth it.

It's not that hard to just have the torrent running after your finish downloading, heck you even get bonus points for seeding which can help boost your ratio.

Is there any particular reason why you're looking to get around that rule?

>>12804842
I have seen a few tools where you can use another browser tool to mimic another website.
One tool is called Media Hint, while the other one is Hola Unblocker.

It ups your bandwidth usage due to how it works, but I think it would be a good tool to sample Jdrama from hulu.

I don't know if it works on a mobile device or not.

>>12752645
I cri evrtiem

>>12812764
Because for some reason the torrents I get from there will not seed

>>12816709
>Because for some reason the torrents I get from there will not seed
What do you mean exactly?
Like there's no one else downloading it so you're unable to get any upload stats on the torrent?
Or no matter how many downloaders are on the torrent you're unable to connect to them?

>>12797038
>>12797272
>>12808713
It's up, if you guys haven't checked.

>>12817446
>Like there's no one else downloading it so you're unable to get any upload stats on the torrent
This I figured it out after a while but I left it open all night and not a single kb was uploaded, looks like I'll have to donate $10.

>>12819143
Sounds like a stupid question to ask but just in case...
You got your ports properly configured as well as your client configured to not use PeX, DHT, and Local Peer Discovery? Which should also ask, which client are you using?

>>12819165
utorrent 2.2.1

>>12819165
Whats DHT?

>>12819871
Huh, while I've never used utorrent I don't think there's any issues with that version and assuming you have ports properly configured the only other thing I can think of would be is that there's no one else grabbing the torrents. Are you grabbing mostly dead stuff or do you grab some of the more healthy torrents as well?

I also recommend just downloading some golden/free leech torrents to help pad out your upload stats, even if you're not particularly interested in the content it can help in the long run.

>>12819883
Distributed Hash Table, basically finding peers through the internet that are sharing the same exact torrent you are. It's how magnet links primarily function as well and while I don't think it's true many private trackers suggest disabling it (along with the other two mentioned) to make sure your stats get properly recorded.

Just finished Yamada and 7 Witches in one day, now I really love Mariya Nishiuchi, watched Switch Girl and GTO 2012 but this one is my most favorite role of her. Any more dorama of her?

>>12821254
i thought it was a terrible adaptation of the manga

>>12821602
Still not read the manga yet, but I love most of the acting there, though. But yeah it was too short and there will be the anime next year.

>>12821254
Is it gay for wanting to fuck Shiraishi when it's Yamada inside her body?

>>12824618
that is the fundamental question of boku girl

For those who are wanting to have their heart stolen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_sbHz_u2sk

I've been enjoying Shinsengumi, Beach Boys, and Kurokochi this past week.

I never expected Kurokochi to be good since the ratings were shit. Shinsengumi is the normal Taiga drama and I'm only watching it for Katori and Odagiri. Beach Boys has finally filled in my Long Vacation (another drama) void and is really nice to watch at night.

>>12828444
I've wanted to watch Shinesengumi, but only version I found had shit quality.

Is the Yae No Sakura taiga worth a watch?

Need help

What dorama is this picture from? Not getting any result from google search image

>>12828993
Her fucking mouth is hideous.

>>12829004
You should see her eating mouth

>>12828529

Eh, since it's over 10 years old you can't really expect video quality over 480p. First 10 episodes are pretty boring.

>>12830660
I would love some 480p, best i found was 3xx.

Do we talk about kdramas here? Anyone see Pinocchio?

I've been watching Tamagawa Kuyakusho of the Dead. Corny, but fun. Alice Hirose is a qt.

>>12824618

Anyone know where I can buy the digital aoi honoo soundtrack that isn't itunes?

Finally got around to finishing Amachan.

Are any other asadora worth watching?

>>12838039
https://www.asiatorrents.me/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=8f314082d60a96bc7485e0cdd168ed2f721faad3

>>12838082
Thanks again. Forgot that they opened registration.

>>12838000
does tokkyu tanaka 3 go count

>>12838069

Amachan was my first Asadora and apart from a few slow weeks, I really enjoyed it.

I'm just now starting Gochisousan, which is looking good.

However, one of the things I liked so much about Amachan was that is was set in recent times, with current lingo and references.

Other, historical, asadora will always use "less modern" language, so depending on your likes/dislikes, keep that in mind.

>>12838338
dont you find asadora kinda... cliched?

>>12839862
well it's morning drama at weekend targeted at women. It's like cartoon network sunday morning cartoon.
Cliche because they need to sell

>>12840023
right, that explains why asadora is asadora, but doesnt quite explain why you like it

>>12840207

Cliched, yes, of couse, and if you want an explanation of the psychology of why I (and the other anons posting) like it ... well, I couldn't tell you.

Watching Amachan was for lack of a better term, therapeutic ...?
Just fluff, but feel-good fluff in all possible ways: you watch the story of course, but when it's so (don't kill me) amateurish, I can never help that my thoughts wander and start thinking of the actors, writers, set builders etc, who put so much effort and soul in a production.

I dunno, I really enjoyed it and am gutted d-addicts is gone, it was my #1 source for series and subs :(

>>12841597
that kinda makes sense. lots of people like dramas that "heal". stuff like marumo no okite.

Finished. I want to go to Ikebukuro.

Just finished Namida wo fuite. Started out great but then it got boring.

Now I am watching Triangle, and it is pretty good. I came for Eguchi and Goro, but the whole story itself is interesting and intriguing to watch since the whole show is a series of twists and turns.
