>>40126894
I think this drama has women audience as its sole target (the director and the screenwriter are both females, too), especially because of Chiba Yudai's role who always acts like a fag. Beyond that, it does seem interesting. I just hope it doesn't devolve into BL shit because the original manga is made by a BL mangaka.

I’d understand if you’re a newfag but I’m baffled you actually watched that shit show, let alone past episode 1. The trailer alone said it loud and clear and before that, the TV network and the time slot is already a red flag.

Watched pic related. Exactly what I expected, perfect to pass the time. The special was supposed to set up this but they felt a bit disjoined. I didn't enjoy the romance bits because I already knew that she doesn't comeback for the following series. I dislike that Amemiya haircut. Otsuka Nene is a babe.

Why do you guys think Japanese and Korean weren't able to produce any live action TV work even close to Babylon 5 or Breaking Bad. I have watched close to 70 Kdramas and over 120 Jdramas and I have yet to come across a genuine masterpiece, it's not like the Japaqnese don't know how to produce great TV, there are plenty of anime that go above and beyond like LoGH, Texhnolyze, Lain and Tatami Galaxy among plenty others.

>>40154750
>westernshit
>gookshit
Get the fuck out of here.

>>40154750
Japanese actors in television overact a lot of the time and i think it ruins it. its probably a cultural thing

>>40154750
Also, Japan’s dramas are made for the Japanese people, not a product for international distribution like their films and anime. There are shticks and cliches only the Japanese and the unironic weebs can appreciate.

>>40154750
I know this is probably just a shitpost by a crossboarder but it’s still weird that this is the first time I’ve seen Babylon 5 mentioned on this whole website, even excusing we’re on /jp/ I still would have thought to have seen it somewhere else by now
>>40155040
Also this anon’s probably right, what’s desired by domestic audiences might not be what international viewers would like but since the market is all but solely Japan-oriented that’s the crowd they’ll pander towards. Budgets undoubtedly a factor too

>>40155030

>>40155758
anon, you are just obsessed with akaso eiji

>>40154750
>Babylon 5 or Breaking Bad
If you mean iconic dramas with several seasons then they do have them, and a lot. Mito Koumon, Aibou and Doctor X are an example.
>Lain and Tatami Galaxy
Those are created by auteurs, passionate creators. The majority of Japanese dramas are pure commercial products devoid of passion, well, just like most anime produced every season. The catch here is, just like Lain and Tatami Galaxy, there are rare gems here and there. Newfags don’t know how to look for them and always get memed and start watching whatever is popular. Then again, like the other anons said, Japanese dramas are meant for the domestic audience, they’re products aimed at the Japanese people themselves and they have characteristics that don’t appeal to you. I would say Hanzawa Naoki is a commercial masterpiece, you? You’ll probably say it’s not that much. But here’s the thing, it’s a commercial drama so it’s shackled by the tv network’s greed and the BPO regulations, so where do you find passionate works? WOWOW TV and services like Netflix.

>>40156203
>Newfags don’t know how to look for them and always get memed and start watching whatever is popular
I really recommend the hidden gem stand up!!!

>>40156346
>stand up!!
By no means a hidden gem. It is Japan’s most iconic piece of televised work and still carries a cultural prestige nearly two decades in the vein of Hamlet by William Shakespeare. If you haven’t watched it, you haven’t watched Japanese dramas.

>>40155814

>>40155040
>not a product for international distribution like their films and anime.
Anime have just recently started caring about foreigners, even until early to mid 2010s anime was solely made for the domestic audience.
>>40155465
Not a crossboarder, the last western TV I watched was Witcher and even then it was because I already loved the books and games.

>>40156203
> Mito Koumon, Aibou and Doctor X
Not episodic shit, I meant something like the Taiga dramas, all the ones I watched were really good but none were able go above and beyond a historical retelling to be a masterpiece.
>here are rare gems here and there
I have seen my fair share of hidden gems such as iari mienai kao, mother, dakara watashi wa oshimashita, keizoku&spec, arifureta kiseki, ishi no mayu series, w no higeki, yakou kanransha, kurokawa no techo, akuryo byoutou, odoru daisousasen, hitorishizuka and reverse.
Of all these I would say that the only ones close tothe level of Lain or Tatami Galaxy are Hitorishizuka, Keizoku, iari and mother, and even then I wouldn't necessarily say that those are on the same level, maybe hitorishizuka but definitely not the others.

i seen tag last night and i still don’t know wtf happened ngl it’s a pretty shitty movie with bad acting, special effects and plot but i like the panties shots but i still felt weird when the panties shots was framed just like in anime idk how to explain it but panties shot irl movie shouldn’t be framed the way it’s framed in anime cause it will just look weird and doesn’t fit in

>>40123621
who is she and why should i forgive her?

>>40159534
Aside from the ham acting (it's full of models, tarenots and idols) I thought it was pretty damn good myself. I think Sono can, like no one else, blend surrealism while speaking on the human condition in his films while also having a somewhat bonkers fun element. Ultimately, it was truly thoughtful and poignant. It’s stunning how he molds and shifts the narrative in his tales.

>>40159892
damn so was i the only one who thought the movie was being pretentious? idk it felt like it was trying so hard to be deep but i liked the insane killing scenes that came out of nowhere also that punk girl that was saying surreal lines was by far the hottest

>>40159921
It was definitely, most of the shit sion sono does is pretentious as hell.

>>40159921
I don't know about pretentious (this turned into an overused buzzword lately, lost its meaning) but I think the message he was trying to convey is to fight against oppressive patriarchies as seen with the girls' struggle with the teachers.

>>40160201
how was them struggling with their teacher become an massage about patriarchies it felt like mumbo jumbo what about the whole fate them? and they stuff about them being dead and dna? this is my second japanese movie i think and i didn’t like the first one from what i remember i think it was about a teacher killing school kids who killed her son

bruh so i was watching a feminist movie all along baka i didn’t get the massage tho

>>40165629
yes that’s it i think i like tag a bit more i’m planning on getting more into japanese movies my next watch will be suicide club (because i read a manga with the same title that was about the movie but with different events) and next i’ll watch guinea pig

>>40168874
I though I was watching some dude's fetishes on display. So it's was actually feminism.

>>40168966
lmaooo me too

>>40168968
Not sure why that triggered you. I agree people should be free to enjoy what they like but their discussion doesn't necessarily have to be in our thread. There's a difference in what we value, japanese culture immersion, over their interest, interesting foreign stories.

>>40169249
foreigner? you’re not japanese also wtf did i do i only talk about japanese movies how did i bring my “foreigner interest” here

>>40169319
You're misunderstanding again, I hold no malice friend. By foreign I mean that Japan is foreign to you so you find their stories and storytelling interesting. The regulars here are used to the differences and are only here because we're ultra weebs that enjoy the culture immersion. I'm only pointing out that there's a difference in values between us so it's easy to spot you between the other posts..

>>40142624
Everyone here should just drop watching tv and start discussing kino movies.

>>40169399
okay i understand you now btw i want the culture immersion too

>>40169469

>>40169399
I remember the early days of this thread in early to mid 2010’s (before it turned into a general), we used to have many people discussing the Japanese cinema, just like now, but more than now, they used to bring gook shit all the time and outright discussing their garbage in a thread dedicated to Japanese movies, variety shows and dramas. And while the mods did use to delete their posts at some point, they stopped doing that now. It’s not as notorious as back in the day but we still get some crossie fags who bring up gooks from thread to thread.

You’re both wrong and we’ve already gone through this some threads ago. Why change a thread that have been going fine and dandy for years?

>>40188577
yes

Watched murders at the house of death (屍人荘の殺人) tonight because it was on Netflix, it was a decent bit of fun. The mystery was a bit lacking but Hamabe was disgustingly cute.

>>40190612
and yamada was cute too, and kamiki
and nakamura too

>>40190752
They were all cute, but Hamabe was DISGUSTINGLY cute. The doll-like hair, the cute outfits, the dumb mannerisms and sleeping with her eyes half-open, every aspect of her character was carefully crafted to give me a raging erection.

>>40192363
I was shocked how bad the ratings were, even for the book it's based on. It doesn't set the world on fire, but it's a fun movie and I liked the concept.

There's a lot of films like this that the Japanese audience seemed to dislike a lot but they're perfectly watchable.

Anything "fun" to watch?

>>40234103
What genre?

>>40234103
Any show with former superstar Idols in them.

It's "fun"ny watching them in ordinary everyday situations.

>>40234121
romcom

>>40234378
Stand Up!! (2003)

Are live action with gaijin actors good or awful?

>>40147190
That's Singapore, lah. Granted, Singy entertainment isn't as widespread as Thai.

>>40147190

>Our shit smells less terrible than your shit
Both are third world shitholes full of subhumans like every other Southeast Asian shithole. Take that shit to /int/ and stay there.

>>40234378
Love Strikes! (2011)

Anyone here watched Haken Anime starring Nakamura Tomoya? Is it as good as Aoi Honou?

>>40234927
It was more serious than I imagined it would be. There are other movies in the same genre such as Pompo, Bakuman, and Shirobako, but for me personally, this is by far the best. The cast in particular are all top notch.

Japan is finished.

>>40236106
Forgetting this, aired back in 2020

>>40236106
There's a BL drama almost every season now. In the past(few years ago) it was rare.

>>40234927
It was fun, I thought Tasuku Emoto was especially good. Compared to other recent 'adaptation' movies, this one was decent at making its world feel believable in live action. Even had an after-credits stinger that was rewarding to wait for

>>40236106
it attracts online subscribers well

>>40236106
>women are the biggest audience for drama
>make drama specifically for women
this really isn't hard to figure out, unless you're new or something

i personally liked it a lot. It has this artsy/campy feel that only him can pull off.

Three more actors joining Alice in Borderland 2.

>>40237809
nice casting.
naked yamapi? lol

anyone want to help me out on creating a recommendation chart? how would one go about to creating one? something like pic related

Any other dramas similar to Train Man?

>>40238669
There’s already a Japanese cinema chart made by /tv/

>>40239612
Boys on the Run. The original manga by Hanazawa Kengo is better though.

>>40238669
It would be hard to create something similar in this general since people here have different tastes. It would be awkward to have, say, Takeshi Kitano's Hanabi and Kaguya-sama starring Kanna Hashimoto on the same chart.

>>40239746
The chart doesn't have to only be for Japanese movies but includes dramas, and maybe can split them into genres?

>>40234731
well of course singapore beijing hongkong and taiwan are advanced since china is the most advanced country in the world...

>>40236106
>>40236363
why are japanese "men" so cute??

>>40240995
skinny and feminine looking

KimuTaku (I am so sick of this guy) and Ayase Haruka

>>40250411
Is this a Drive my Car clone?

>>40249895
>Toei blew 2 billion yen on this for their 70th anniversary
The absolute state of it. Also Kimutaku doesn't suit jidaigeki works, he will play himself anyway. I have a feeling this gonna bomb hard, feel sorry for Ayase because she's pretty good when it comes to jidaigeki. Maybe Toei can salvage their losses by making an anime or a mobage tie-in or something. They should just have made it an anime, that would attract global interest.

2h20m of pure Japanese meandering 80s nonsense kino.

>>40259010
Curious yet too long and sometimes pedantic in a good way. The story was difficult to understand but I reaffirm that this is a film in which one can enjoy the personalities of the characters and their quirks despite not understanding the story. The film is a bit of a mess, but it's realistic. The setting made me feel nostalgic of an era I was never a part of (born in 1990). And Meiko Harada was so hot in her heydays. Oh, and she co-wrote the story with Kumashiro. Amazing.

>>40258896
What's yamashita up to? It's been years since his last movie.

>>40196181
i found it on rarbg because i don’t have an avistaz invite :(

>>40194647
This looks very interesting. It needs subtitles.

Can someone give some invitations to Avistaz and/or JPTV, me and this guy >>40260578 need it

>>40262294
I have two but I'm too much of a pussy to use them due to the scary warnings on the invite page

There's a movie I watched in Wowow cable channel here in SEA a long time ago, maybe 2002-2003. It was R-18, it was erotic but I can't remember if there was nudity. Maybe there was breast nudity but no hardcore stuff. The story of the movie was there was this guy who was hired to seduce the wife of someone who is currently in the hospital unconscious, so the wife is left alone in the house. There is this scene that the guy calls the wife and he seduces her via the phone, convincing her to use a wine bottle to fuck herself. The wife doesn't know though that this guy placed a hidden camera inside the house and he is watching the wife do this while he is on the phone with her. Eventually they have a meet up. In their meetup, he blindfolds her and fucks her in a building overlooking a public or highway I think. In another scene I think they fuck in the hospital next to the husband. In the end scene there's this long dinner table and they fuck there. The husband eventually awakens from the hospital and I think he was notified about what happened, and he tried to kill this guy that was hired to seduce the wife but the wife block the bullet when the husband shot at the guy.

>>40263122
Aw man, so that's why. That's okay, thanks anon. I'll just wait for the invitation from the Discord, then

Are there any good melancholy/depressing shows?

>>40263122
i see, that’s ok, bro, thank you anyway.

>>40266383

Tag tag sumo is fun. Nelsons are badass at this, outwitting and out-skilling their opponents, including the surprise one at the end.

>>40269506
They could have done the tag sumo setsu for the entire episode, it was really fun. I hoped real sumo wrestlers would appear after Yunbudanpu.
Also, was surprised to see Mano Erina on the show. She's still so cute after getting married.

Are any of the Aibou series any good? Just curious since it's trending on twitter and been running for 20 years now

>>40154750
>LoGH, Texhnolyze, Lain and Tatami Galaxy
Babby's first anime

>>40271314
Depends on you. For long-running shows like Aibou (or Conan, etc.), the person himself should decide if it's good or not. Watch the first season and decide for yourself. Personally, I didn't like it. I'd probably be attached to it if I watched it when I was young (like Conan) but it just feels like a chore watching all the seasons now.

>>40263440
Yokoyama Yui?

>>40271314
Nah, it's complete milquetoast crap. Literally filler tv you leave on in the background and don't pay attention to. I suppose many people might feel nostalgic since they grew up with the early seasons but I did so too and always thought it was shit whenever it came on tv.

>>40267615
Literally just found those two titles on MDL last night. Seem good.

>>40271759
yup, if there was liveaction tifa i'd pick her

I will now watch this film.

I remember seeing a video about a Japanese dude in his 20s or early 30s who got very rich from being a stock market autist and despite being worth 9 figures he never spent money on anything except a high rise apartment in Tokyo that he kept almost unfurnished (IIRC he had a couch, a bed, his computer setup, and maybe a TV).
He would eat ramen every day at his local shop and some times he would afford himself the luxury of adding egg.
It was a tv show segment that ended with the guests at the studio discussing the video, and one of them was an older guy saying that the dude isn't happy.

Does anyone know where to find it?
I saw it on YouTube but now their search is useless so it just gives me random shit normies like that's kinda related to my search keywords.
Thank you very much in advance.

I enjoyed the show until the very end. The final story arc was great.

>>40271879

I guess that makes sense, thanks

>>40259010

Avistaz sorry

>>40123575
Could you guys help me out? I'm looking for a horror movie I watched over a decade ago, can't remember what it's called, I'm 99% sure it is japanese. It's about a pregnant woman who is chased by a ghost that is trying to reincarnate into her baby. The "plot twist" was that this is a common process and practically all babies are just reincarnations of human ghosts.

>>40293445
Turn yourself to the authorities, freak.

>>40159534
Is this the only pantsu shot or are there more?

>>40293695
Found another scene.

>>40159534
Tag ending like the one in Looper, but it kinda felt rhymeless, like it might be saying end obeying the patriarchy or stop illusions like in American Psycho. So death to save classmates? I don't think that's it. So suicide for the sake of suicide? Bad really.

What are some must watch thriller or mystery series? Also, are Alice in Borderland and Your Turn to Kill any good?

>>40293943
MPD Psycho (2000) by Miike Takashi

They're decent, nothing amazing though.

>>40294057
>MPD Psycho
Is it okay to watch it without reading manga?

>>40293841
this shit had a bunch of those no?

>>40294507
Well, if you're interested in the story alone it's better to just read the manga because the drama cuts and summarizes a lot, it does have original scenes though. The direction and the visuals were topnotch but unfortunately the gore is censored since it's a tv drama. But still, that creepy atmosphere of Japan's late 90's and early 00's psychological-thrillers is well-wroth watching it for. I recommend watching the drama first and reading the manga after.

>>40293477
Relax. I watch it for her.

>>40294146
>>40294057
Thanks. What about Liar Game adaptation? Is it any good? Can I watch it without reading the manga first or should I read it before watching?

>>40295718
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUXUSJ3-544
The drama was fun with a cool OST.

>>40295718
You can. It has many sequels.

Think i would rather watch Monkey all over again!

The tarentos were funnier than the geinins.

https://youtu.be/mwB4JC_fBvg

>>40304249
I only watched it for the cute geinin and tarento but they were surprisingly funny here and there. Women aren't funny, THE W is overhyped, but this is a rare instance when they were kinda funny. This was my favorite answers.

>>40272079
excellent choice!

>>40293695
pantsu!!!

>>40304570
I confirm, both seasons of Joshimental were crap

I got Moteki recommended, but it sucks. The ending was particularly shitty.
