Lotto 6 de 3 oku 2 senman En Ateta Otokoロト6で3億2千万円当てた男 – Release July 08

Kumo Japan Drama sneak!!

Japan Drama Story:
Tachibana Satoru (Sorimachi Takashi) 反町隆史is the lucky guy that won the lottery ticket of 320 million yen. He is a poor salary man with no savings and a divorce marriage. He has no talent and nothing good that he is proud of. Basically he is a loser. He even writes a blog diary about his pathetic life. The only treasure that he has is his son. Perhaps the time that he spends with his son is the only happy moment. On day he bought a lottery ticket when he’s with his son. That’s when his life changes. That’s the day he strikes lottery first prize of 320 million yen.

Feelings and comments:
Money is not everything but life can be difficult without money. Tachibana Satoru‘s income can be considered low. Compare to his yearly salary of about 3.5 million yen, the lottery money is almost 100 times of his yearly income. In other words, it takes 100 years for him to earn that amount of money. It’s not really a good thing in getting that much of money in short time. Psychologically people might not prepare for it. Either you might be too happy and spend as much as you can or afraid and cautious towards anything or everyone that might steal your money. I’m sure most of us will go crazy winning that lottery ticket. It’s not a surprise that they recommended an adviser on how to deal with that much of money.
One thing for sure that there are things that money can’t buy. That’s happiness. We have to really work for it.

Things that caught my eyes:
Definitely the money, plus sleeping and taking pictures with money.

Japan Drama Rating:
Fan of (Sorimachi Takashi) 反町隆史 should watch it. Frankly speaking, it’s unbearable to watch how to lose money.

Shibatoraシバトラ – Release July 08

Kumo Japan Drama sneak!!

Japan Drama Story:
Shibata Taketora (Koike Teppei) 小池徹平 is a policeman with a baby face. As he looks very much younger than his actual age, he is promoted as a detective to solve juvenile crime. His mission is to go undercover to schools and other teenage community. As it is illegal to carry out undercover operation by Japan police officer, Shibata Taketora (Koike Teppei) 小池徹平 has no protection and will get fired if his identity expose. Risking his career, Taketora (Koike Teppei) 小池徹平 still accepted the task because he wanted to be a great policeman just like his father. With his specially ability to foresee the death of others, he went undercover to help teenagers that involved with juvenile crime. Taketora (Koike Teppei) 小池徹平 solved a lot of juvenile crimes together with the help of his best friends Hosho Mizuki (Ohgo Suzuka) 大後寿々花, Fujiki Kojiro (Fujiki Naohito) 藤木直人 and Hakuto Shinsuke (Tsukaji Muga) 塚地武雅.

Feelings and comments:
I have to say Koike Teppei (小池徹平) still has a lot to improve in acting. The way that he looks at others trying to show his concern is just not there. Honestly, I think some of the supporting cast acting is better than him. But still he has the looks that capture the soul of many people, especially girls.
This drama is actually base on a famous manga series. Most of the characters appeared in the drama but the story is a bit different with the original manga. There will be some unexpected scene even if you already read the manga version.
It’s hard to really trust someone, especially if you’re living in a city. People lie and that’s the fact. How do we know who to trust? That’s the thing that we have to keep on learning. One thing for sure, life will be very much difficult if we can’t trust anybody. There is a chance that you might get hurt but that’s the best way to find some good friends.

Things that caught my eyes:
There are lots of scenes on “Looking and finding someone”. But I think the most interesting part is using a marker pen and a tooth brush to fight.

Japan Drama Rating:
Worth watching. There are lots of actions with detective or undercover scene.
