A million stars falling from the sky :::

The story opens after a young female student kills herself by jumping off a balcony. It's soon discovered that she was in fact stabbed, and the room arranged to make it look like a suicide. And so we begin. A few minor details lead Detective Kanzo (Akashiya Sanma) to suspect that Ryo (Kimura Takuya), an enigmatic chef's assistant, knows more about her death.The two have run into each other by chance a few times, and each time left Kanzo with an uncomfortable feeling. Every clue that is revealed seems to lead to more questions about Ryo, his obsessive girlfriend, his callous and manipulative relations with several women, and about a painful memory from Kanzo's past. Things get more complicated when a powerful love/hate relationship develops between Ryo and Kanza's little sister, the beautiful Yuko (Eri Fukatsu). What exactly is their connection? As the evidence (and body count) rises, Kanza tries desperately to save his sister from Ryo's influence. He's no saint, but is he the Devil Kanza thinks he is? And why? The answers will floor you, even when you think you've got them figured out already.

for me it was beautiful life, starring Takuya Kimura... i fell for him instantly and i watched the series again and again... i called it my first nippon rabu!! infatuated.gif

but, come to think again i have to say it was Oshin.. that time i was just a small kid. but i enjoyed watching the show. it's a very long story, i must say. and now they are re-airing it back on TV! biggrin.gif

I think my first japanese serie was also GTO. But i liked the anime version. It was nice to see the acts of Nanako.

hana yori dango was my first japanese drama. it's quite enjoyable, but it doesn't beat my favorites: 'nobuta wo produce' and 'attention please!'.

My first j-drama is One Litre of Tears lor, saw the commercial on TV and read reviews on the net, so bought the DVD and watched. Very touching show indeed...
CloudBoi

Bankii
my first j-drama was also 1 litre of tears, it was one of the best dramas ive seen aswell, and boy did i cry hahaha!.
**seReNe**
My first japanese series will be Majo no jouken which cast by Takizawa Hideaki and Nanako...God..I'll love that drama...it's so emotional..the story is about the love between a teacher and student where their love can prevail any obstacle in the world like...age and family to just to have a future together...smile.gif

My first Jap drama was Hana Yori Dango...watched it because of Meteor Garden
It was really GOOD! I liked how the plot moved so much quicker than MG, as HYD had less episodes. So I liked how it was more fast paced
Although, really didn't like Matsumoto Jun...preferred Dao Ming Si in MG much more
tidusquall
my first jpn series was 1 Litre of Tears, my friend introduced me to it. It's one of the best series i've seen in a while.
xousagio29ox
definintely my first jap series was hana yori dango 1... that was super goot.. finsihed it in 1 days
Kazoku No Fire
My first Japanese series... Hmm I think it was Beautiful Life. It was a boring series with a hair stylist and a wheel chair girl. I didn't like it. All I liked was the intro music.
Lucky_Doraemon
My first series was like many other people, One Litre of Tears. It's very touching and imo better than all the commercial stuff that's being shown right now. Great acting and although sad story i loved every moment of it. TT_TT
marmar
hmm...my first jdrama would have to be "Hana Yori Dango"...I dunno why I started whatching it...I guess it just caught my attention so I gave it a try and since then I have love HYD..and I am soo excited for season two.
I think my second would be "attention please"..I still haven't finished watching this one...

I'm just now getting into jdrama..I have always been a twdrama and kdrama person but now I'm into jdrama...and i'm liking it alot.

My first japanese drama was watching GTO three years. It was good and I liked the actors in it. Then I started watching a few others like Boku dake no Madonna, Yoshitsune, etc. I really became interested in J-dramas when I watched Nobuta wo Produce, Hana Yori Dango, and 1Liter no Namida.
Wengkee16
Wow for me that was a long time ago hehehe. Euhm i think it was Beautiful Life with Kimura Takuya in it. After that i started to watch jdorama like Hero, Engine and more.
devilurz

Life is Beautiful but it wasn't until GTO that i really got into japanese drama.
thewonderbegins
My first ever and er... actually.. 'ONLY' jap. series I've ever seen is 1 Litre Of Tears =) Such a sad series!.. I'm planning on watching Hana Yori Dango, because I've seen the Taiwanese version...
kaboregima
My first jdorama maybe GTO,Beautiful Life,With Love,Perfect Love or Long Vacation, i'm quiet confuse because at that time i watch many jdorama....It was long time ago,about 1997 i guess...when i was 12 years old...i just falling in love to jdorama...and can't stop watching it till now...recently i've watch lots of jdorama after stop for a while because busy with my study....but the feeling is still the same...i still love watch jdorama
Shoe.
ahem... first japanese series.... i actually forgot... i haven't watched for the past 3 years... it's either Beautiful Life, Hero or Long Vacation... =.=''
pinksushi
i think my first jdorama that i completely watched was 'Kimi wa Petto' back in 2003
i haven't seen it since then but it was really good drama~!
deeism
beautiful life! i absolutely adore that one! but ive only seen it once and i cant find it anywhere.
i might go to hk and look for it instead of online i guess lol.

i think ive seen quite a few when i was little but i dont remember any of them
and my family and i were huge tv fans (lol kind of...) when we lived in hk
... so im pretty sure beautiful life wasnt my very first one.
morphodoll
beach boy, gto and power office girl..watch them,hmm, maybe when i was 6 in 1998..
funkindagirl

I think that it's really inspirational.
Note to Self
my first jdrama was Hana Yori Dango. i was really big on watching twdramas first. so when i started watching Meteor Garden, i found out there was a japanese version. HYD was actually what got me to switch from twdramas to jdramas. hehe.

My Boss My Hero was my first. Could not stop laughing, so started watching others. Am now addicted.
xAurora
wow, I only started watching jdoramas since last year. I think..I'm not sure..but I think it was Gokusen. BUT it could of been... okay no nevermind. It's gokusen for sure. And it was sure darn good. Except the middle episodes were predictable (of course they'd get saved)

yep. That was my first. I can't believe I didn't start watching j-dramas until last year. tsk.

i have a friend who's fond of Takuya Kimura back in mid of 2004. She often watched his doramas and recommended to me to try watching one. The first dorama i've watched was "Beautiful Life".
