Medley065~Which Japanese dramas are you rewatching this year?

Hello, the 3rd weekend of February.

During the Chinese New Year, the time for chasing dramas has been reduced, and this issue is the "bi-weekly version". The winter season is a bit miserable, and I am already looking forward to the arrival of the new spring drama. The "Recommendation Ranking tier list" has been updated on the Notion sharing page, please browse.

Japanese drama world

※Always※

• "The Scary Heart" EP1 is adapted from the classic rakugo "Mind Eyes". This kind of "three words and two beats" style stories are very common, and the progression and reversal of the plot are all expected. Toide Masada and Kuroki Hua's performances are remarkable.

※Continued review※

• "13 retainers of Kamakura" EP5-6, tells the story of the Hojo family's support of the Rai Dynasty's rise, the initial setback, the assassination of Saburo Zongshi, and the great responsibility of Yoshiki. Koki Mitani focused on highlighting the details and small tastes of life in the script. On the one hand, it made the characters plump and three-dimensional, and more humanized (in the modern sense). The legitimacy of raising troops, the entire warrior class seems so comical.

• "Let's Come Together" W14-15, the third protagonist Hinata was born, Kawaei Li Na officially debuted and completed the succession. Fukatsu Eri takes a back seat, her actual age is there, and she is more than enough to play the role of the mother of a high school student. What kind of life will Hinata, who loved to watch costume dramas from as a child, experience? Looking forward to Fujimoto's wonderful writing.
• EP3-4 of "The Crew of Shenmu Longinosuke's Short Break", Duansheli and Chinese Restaurant, both episodes are mediocre, deliberately close to the people or curious, often counterproductive. This season, the lack of Takeuchi Ryo is really casual, and it is not enough "OFF".
• "Wife Becomes a Primary School Student" EP3-4, each character is warm and lovely, and his view on Morita Mochichi is more and more changed. The script is relaxed one by one, and the two scenes of Yoshida Yang are very tense under the light and humorous tone. The screenwriter also used an exchange diary to fill in the shadows, remembering that family members in previous lives also have a price, at least one or two good friends have to be forgotten.

• "The True Murderer FLAG" EP14-15, the line that the daughter ran away from home is clearly explained. The second half of the "truth chapter" is like a bomb demolition. It turned out that three separate bombs were tied together, no wonder the flowers were seen all the way through the fog. There are only a few suspects who can be suspected, and Drum Chuanhua has turned back.
• "Don't Talk About Suspense" EP4-5 invited Kabmoto Yu and Kohito Wenshi to make a cameo appearance, and there are not many highlights. This drama breaks the usual "unit drama" format, and the duration of Xiao Hinxiang's period is compressed, spliced with the main line, and the structure is flexible and informal. The protagonist criticized the word "fighting disease", and even said that "it is not the patient who loses, but the medical treatment", which seems reasonable, but is actually nonsense. How to win or lose.

• "Forty Away" EP2-3, assistant Qianqiu may be her husband's illegitimate child, this suspense makes the relatively dull drama exciting, and also explains Itagaki Li Guangren's strange expression. Watch two more episodes to decide whether to pursue it or not.

• "So I Can't Do It" and "Fight Song" abandoned the chase. The former is dull and anachronistic, with victims bleeding to the ground in the heavy rain, and the scene of indifference to the flow of people is too unrealistic; the latter is lacking in novelty, and the roles of Mamiya and Kikuchi lack charm. Kazuhiko Kawahiko's level.

※Review※

• Last year, I picked 9 episodes from 20 years ago and 10 years ago to review them to make up for the lack of new dramas in the current season. The following 12 classic dramas will be revisited this year:
• There were 7 films from 20 years ago, including the Cat Eye of Kisarazu of "Miyajiu", the male nurse in the medical drama starring Masahiro Matsuoka, the 100 million stars that fell from the sky of Takuya Kimura's collaboration with Eri Fukatsu, and the screenplay of Nozawa Takahashi's Insomnia Night Hold Me Closely, Yuko Takeuchi's other "divine drama" lunch queen, Sakamoto Yuji participated in the love deviation value and love, Xia.
• 10 years ago, there were 5, including the penultimate love of Okada Megumi's representative work, Kurosawa Kiyoshi's Atonement, Sakai Masato's LEGAL HIGH, Yamamoto Koji's Bo Yingji, and Hirokazu Koeda's Going My Home.

• Faye Wong released the album "Faye Wong" of the same name in 1997 after marrying her son, and her career and life entered a new stage. This album continues the style of "Perfunctory" and "Sky", which is more urban and loose. Lin Xi wrote 7 lyrics: "You Are Happy (So I'm Happy)" adopts the perspective of a child. Faye Wong is also quite childish when she sings. It's despair, smiles, emotions, and dreams come true are just deceit. In contrast, the words of "Fighting the Fire" and "Clouds" are too straightforward, and Huang Weiwen's "Reminiscence" is acceptable.

• In 1998, "Singing and Traveling" no longer went into the black, white and gray tone of the first piece, with gorgeous visuals, and the singing was less sloppy and more beautiful. Pan Xieqing's 2 songs were exceptionally successful; Faye Wong wrote "Child" for her daughter; "Sister Kuan" also contributed 1 song "Can't Wake Up"; "You" written by Huang Weiwen was composed by Xu Wei. Lin Xi wrote 8 poems: "Forgive Yourself" skillfully uses function words; "Lust Caution" & "Love Caution", "Red Beans" & "Repayment" in Mandarin and Cantonese as one and two sides, forming an intertextual relationship, usually Cantonese words are better ; "Little Smart" is full of poetry.

• The long-awaited Italian drama "My Genius Girlfriend" S3 was launched, and the original novel "Leaving, Staying" also appeared simultaneously. EP1-2 tells the lives of Elena and Lila respectively: Elena publishes novels, longs to be in the upper class, wants to get Nino, but seems to be forced to accept the marriage contract; Lila struggles to survive in the meat processing factory, Sora Brother La, Pasquale, and Enzo all seemed to be able to accelerate her fall.

• "Alien Cataclysm" S2, known as the "Alien Derivative Drama", has also been broadcast. EP1-3 opened a new picture for the audience in the tropical region of the planet. The settings of the snake, tree, mother and father have a strong sense of religion. The main creator how to use AI robots to analyze and reflect the human mind.
• Ridley Scott's "The Gucci Family", gorgeous and beautiful pictures, calm and restrained narrative, is a good movie. I heard that Lady Gaga unexpectedly fell off the list, and her acting skills are not very memorable, as is the singing part.
• The movie "The Origin of the Ace Spy" redraws and explains the First World War, and loves the scene where the British gentleman fights the Russian demon monk.
• In Disney's "Full House", the story and music are ordinary, the animation technology is changing with each passing day, the materials (hair, skin, clothing) are realistic, and the color matching is gorgeous and enthusiastic like a circus.
