Successively did the inventory of historical dramas, Hong Kong dramas and Korean dramas, and I think that since the few Korean dramas I have watched have been plated, I am really sorry for not discing Japanese dramas.
Japanese drama I have not watched too much in recent years, the reason is that there was a paragraph to watch too much before (which paragraph will be displayed in the later inventory), and then watch the Japanese drama, I feel that there is not much transcendence and surprise, plus the number of episodes of Japanese drama, although not much, but the update rhythm plus the plot rhythm often feel a little slow, and then do not love to watch.
But when encountering word of mouth, it is still necessary to selectively look at it, or that principle, to see the classics, boutiques.
The ten classic Japanese dramas listed in this article, the selection criteria are basic (exceptions will be marked) are all I have seen, and they are all memory points and highlights, the cast is relatively strong, the acting skills are online, and the rhythm is OK.
In order, chronologically from near to far, the time span is twelve years.
(i) Unnatural death (2018)
Director: Ayuko Tsukahara / Kentaro Takemura / Kaaki Murao
Writers: Akiko Nogi
Starring: Satomi Ishihara / Arata Iura / Masataka Koda / Yoko Ichikawa / Akira Matsushige
Douban score: 9.4
Synopsis:
Misumi Mizumi (Rimi Ishihara) is a female forensic doctor who works for the folk forensic organization UDI, which specializes in receiving and dissecting the bodies of those who have died due to abnormal causes in order to find the truth of the case.
Along with Mikoto are forensic nakado (Shin Iura), the recorder Rokuro Kube (Masataka Kuwada), and the inspection technician Yuko Tokai hayashi (Ichikawa Shitohi), among others.
Although the Zhongtang Department has rich clinical experience, its personality is obedient and eccentric, and there are often irreconcilable contradictions between Meiqin and Zhongtang, who have different understandings of justice and law.
In fact, Zhongtang has a secret that no one knows, his girlfriend was unfortunately killed in an "accident", but various clues revealed to Zhongtang that it was a serial murderer who took his girlfriend's life.
Nakado stays firmly at UDI in order to find the murderer of his girlfriend.
My comment: This one is the basic exception. The theme of this drama is actually of interest to me, but I am really general about Rimi Ishihara, and I missed some chances, so I didn't watch it at that time.
But after watching some posts and videos, the owner's recommendation and introduction to it is a drama whose plot can stand up to scrutiny. It is considered that the reputation and influence of Japanese dramas in the past two years are relatively good, so it is put on the list.
I have time to make up for it.
(2) Deceiving the world JP (2018)
Director: Ryo Tanaka / Hiroshi Kanai / Toshiyuki Mitsuhashi
Writers: Ryota Furuzawa
Starring: Masami Nagasawa / Masadai Higashiide / Fumiyoshi Koichi / Yosuke Eguchi / Yoshise
Douban score: 8.5
With the themes of "desire" and "money", tatsuko (Masami Nagasawa), a protagonist with strong leadership and concentration, and some natural genius, join hands with newcomer fraudster "Boku" (Masada Higashiide) and experienced veteran fraudster Richard (Fumiyoshi Kohinata),
Using the gorgeous world of finance, real estate, art, energy, beauty and other industries as the stage, the trio embarks on a magnificent and whimsical plan to deceive people full of desire.
My comments: This is really a strong recommendation, from the beginning to the end, every episode is looking forward to it. Because each episode has a different theme, there are reversals. And this kind of deception theme is relatively rare in China.
In addition, I have always liked Masami Nagasawa, who is sweet and has long legs, and her personality feels very cute.
The play was extended into a movie. There is also a sequel that is said to be filming.
The depression is because the actor Higashi Izumi who played with Masami Nagasawa frequently cheated in marriage, and it is said that after the sequel to the film is now filmed, the series will not be followed up. What a rat stirred up a pot of porridge.
(iii) Evasion is shameful but useful (2016)
导导: Kaneko Fumiaki / Doi Hiroyasu / Ishii Yasuharu
Writers: Akiko Nogi / Tsunomi Umaki Ueno
Starring: Aragaki Yui / Hoshino Gen / Otani Ryohei / Fujii Takashi / Mano Erina
Douban score: 8.3
Shiori Moriyama (Yui Niigaki) has been having a bad career since graduating from graduate school, and has recently been brutally dismissed, in a state of "unemployed vagrants", and his life is very miserable.
Through his father's introduction, Shikuri, who has nowhere to go, comes to the home of a single man named Tsusaki Hiraku (Hoshino Gen) to take care of the housework for him, and in this way, the twenty-five-year-old Shikuri becomes a domestic servant.
Under her arrangement and labor, everything in Pingkuang's home was taken care of in an orderly manner, and Shiori gained Pingkuang's trust, found the center of gravity of life, and regained his strength. However, the good times did not last long, and Shiri's parents decided to move out of the place, which meant that Shiori had to "leave".
Shiri, who really could not accept this, decided to "contract marriage" with Hiroka, pretending to be husband and wife on the outside, and still being an employer and an employee on the inside. In this way, the "lonely man and widow" began their cohabitation life.
My comment: This drama is very relaxed and interesting, it seems to use the old way of "contract marriage" to develop the relationship between men and women, but in fact, it focuses on the social issue that women should be respected and recognized for doing housework.
The male protagonist looks very ordinary, but the female protagonist is the cute Niigaki Yui, and I like her to the same degree as I do with Masami Nagasawa. This drama adds a lot of points to the successful shaping of her heroine image.
(iv) My Terrible Wife (2016)
Director: Kitashige Miyake / Masahiro Kunimoto
Writers: Mitsuru Kuroiwa
Starring: Hideaki Ito / Yoshino Kimura / Yuki Sobu / Kodai Asaka / Hide Makoto
Douban score: 9.0
Mr. and Mrs. Wangyue, who live in a wealthy community, live an enviable and happy life. Yukihira Mochizuki (Hideaki Ito) comes from a poor background, but his wife, Shinya (Kana Kimura), comes from a well-off family.
After the death of Shinya's parents, she left a rich legacy, and used the money to run a coffee shop. In his daily life, Yukihira's food, clothing, and living were all taken care of by Shinya, his wife was considerate, and even his mother and sister in Wangyue's hometown were also caring.
However, such a nearly perfect wife has attracted more and more disgust from Xingping because of her meticulous care. He falls in love with the coffee shop chef Kitasato Kozuo (Saki Taketake), who encourages him to kill his wife.
On the day the plan was ready to be implemented, the wife was suspected of being kidnapped. The other side demanded a ransom of 200 million yen, otherwise he would kill Shinya. It seems that God helped Yukihira, but the next fact made him terrified...
My comments: After thinking about it or putting this drama in, its impact at that time was not small, the theme also triggered discussion, the reason why I was a little hesitant was that this drama was directly pointing to the marriage problem, the core was actually a little scary, and it felt a little gloomy.
But the overall acting, rhythm plus plot design and reversal is indeed an excellent work.
(5) Naoki Hanzawa (2013)
Director: Katsuo Fukuzawa / Takayoshi Tanzawa / Kenta Tanaka
Writers: Hiroyuki Yatsutsu / Tsuneyoshi Ikei (original) / Fumi Hirata (screenwriter collaboration)
Starring: Masato Sakai / Aya Kamikami / Teruyuki Kagawa / Mitsuhiro Oikawa / Kounosuke Kata
Douban score: 9.1
In the 1990s, Naoki Hanzawa (Masato Sakai), a college graduate with a tragic past, enters the central bank of industry as he wishes, and works with Naohiro Kondo (Kenichi Takito) and Toshihito Watanabe (and Mitsuhiro Kawa) toward their respective goals.
Seemingly glamorous bankers experience unimaginable physical and mental torture before and after the bubble recession.
In the 21st century, when the Industrial Central Bank merged with Tokyo Daiichi Bank to form the Central Bank of Tokyo, Hansawa was the head of the finance division of the Osaka West Branch, and he believed in the goodness of human nature while performing his duties as a banker while adhering to universal morality.
The loan fraud incident of up to 500 million yen has forced Hanzawa to the precipice of his career, and also prompted him to completely break with the branch president and even the senior management in the industry who only emphasizes Mingzhe's self-preservation, inflamed power, and heavy profits and light righteousness.
My comment: This is a workplace drama, the content can be said to be very serious and to the point of acupuncture. The things that are discussed are also very in-depth. The cruel distance between the ideal and reality, what kind of heart should be upheld in the workplace, and what the protagonist finally does is not something that everyone can easily do.
Sakai Masato's acting skills are really good, and the more personality and tension of the role, the more he can interpret the flesh and blood.
However, it is also because of such a theme that the overall style of this drama is more serious and heavy.
Legal High (2012)
Director: Junichi Ishikawa / Hidenori Seongho
Starring: Masato Sakai / Yui Niigaki / Katsuhisa Iwase / Eiko Koike / Kotaro Satomi
Miki Law Firm's rookie Dai Machiko (Yui Niigaki) in order to help the parties in a murder case clear their innocence, under the guidance of the president's secretary Sawachi (Eiko Koike), finds the legendary lawyer Kensuke Komimon (Masato Sakai).
Komimon has a high degree of defensive ability, and in order to win the victory by any means, he still holds an impressive record of total victory, and was once the proud protégé of Miki (Iwase Katsuhisa). But an incident five years ago led to a breakup between the two big bar giants.
For the sake of huge legal fees, Gu Meimen agreed to go out of the mountain, and he won the lawsuit with his clever tongue and ability to reverse black and white.
After this, Dai joined Gu Mei men's firm to continue her practice as a lawyer, and the ensuing series of lawsuits put Komimon and Miki's long-simmering old grudges back on the table.
It's also a contest of law and justice...
My comment: The same drama of Masato Sakai picking the beams, I like this one more than "Naoki Hanzawa".
Kensuke Komimon of sakai is really acting. And the heroine's new coat is also what I like, plus it is a legal theme, which is really perfect. And the plot and atmosphere of this play are a little more relaxed.
This film also made two, which is also very good, but I will not put it on the list. All in all, it is highly recommended, especially those who like the theme of law and politics.
(VII) Deception Games (2007)
Director: Hiroaki Matsuyama / Ayako Ohki
Writers: Ancient Monk
Starring: Eirika Toda / Shota Matsuda / Michiko Yoshise / Kazuki Watanabe / Soichiro Kitamura
Douban score: 8.4
Nao Kanzaki (Tomita Tsuorika) is a naïve female college student who accidentally receives a package one day, but when she opens it curiously, she finds herself caught up in a deception game called "Liar Game", asking to deceive her opponent to get a bonus.
In the first round, under the rhetoric of his opponent, the credulous Xiao Zhi handed over all the money in his hand, and then found that he had been deceived.
According to the rules of the game, Xiao Zhi, who loses, will be saddled with a huge debt of up to 100 million yen. In desperation, she finds the genius deceitful Akiyama Shinichi (Shota Matsuda) to help her recover the money.
Impressed by Nao's innocence and kindness, Akiyama agrees to participate in the game and find out who is behind it. As the second, third and fourth rendezvous progressed, the competition became more and more cruel and fierce, the two were gradually caught up in the abyss of the game, and the truth gradually surfaced...
My comments: At the beginning, I said that I had a stage to watch Japanese dramas and watch a lot, basically the years up and down the years of this drama, and the Japanese drama was basically daily. The next few Japanese dramas that were selected for my list were in 2007, although the year now seems a bit long, but the excitement is really not lost in recent years.
This drama I think is very good in the deception genre, and the game plot setting is very exciting and fascinating.
The female protagonist Toda Eirika's looks and acting skills are natural, while the male protagonist Shota Matsuda is a face that I like very much, and there is a hint of evil charm in Kiyohide. The male protagonist he plays is very attractive.
This drama also made a sequel, and to be honest, the excitement is not as good as this one, and it is not put on the list.
(VIII) Marriage Proposal Battle (2007)
Performed by: Takeshi Narita / Hiromasa Kato
Writers: Shigeki Kaneko
Starring: Tomohisa Yamashita / Masami Tsubasa / Naoto Fujiki / Nana Tsubaki / Yuta Hiraba
Douban score: 8.8
People always wait until after the loss to know to cherish, if you can start from scratch, can you make up for the shortcomings and achieve your wishes?
Ken Iwase (Tomohisa Yamashita) and Rei Yoshida (Nagasaki), a young plum bamboo horse who have been playing together since elementary school, obviously have a good feeling for each other, so they can only say the word "like", but how did Rei end up becoming the bride of Tada Sensei (Naoto Fujigi)?
It wasn't until standing at The Wedding Feast that Ken felt a kind of regretful grief, and this strong emotion attracted the goblin (Hiroshi Mikami), who cast magic to help Ken return to the past and rewrite history, but even though he crossed over again and again, Jian always hesitated, and Li's always wanted to talk and stopped, so that the relationship between the two never broke through.
Finally, Jian suddenly realizes that making his beloved happy is also a kind of happiness, and he abandons time travel to offer his most sincere blessings to the gift at the banquet...
My comment: The combination of Tomohisa Yamashita and Masami Nagasawa is really a combination of high value. In Tomohisa Yamashita's drama, this one is the one that impressed me the most. The setting of this drama is still often used to this day, that is, if you can travel back in time, can you change the future?
When the drama is powerful, it can make people anxious with the male protagonist in every episode, wanting to see when he can recover the female protagonist. Each episode can't get what you want, and then look forward to it, and you can't get tired of it.
The ending is good, watch without worrying.
(IX) Detective Galileo Galilei (2007)
Director: Hiroshi Nishitani / Takeshi Narita / Ruijo Nishisaka / Kamasaku Sawada
Writers: Yasushi Fukuda / Koji monk / Otarō Matsumoto / Keigo Higashino
Starring: Masaharu Fukuyama / Yuki Shibasaki / Kazuki Kitamura / Kyoko Fukada / Kazuki Watari
Douban score: 8.2
Yukawa Gaku (Masaharu Fukuyama), who is preparing to become a professor of physics at Tetsudo University, is an out-and-out physics geek who thinks differently than ordinary people.
On this day, the policewoman Kaoru Uchiha (Yuki Shibasaki) takes over a bizarre case of spontaneous combustion of the human body, and she has no clue but is eager to solve the case, and she finds Yukawa Gaku under the introduction of her colleague Toshihei Kusanagi.
Yukawa Gaku originally did not want to cause trouble, but later could not withstand the entanglement of Kaoru Uchiha, and finally agreed to work with her to solve the case. After a series of forensics, Yukawa used his profound knowledge of physics to finally uncover the criminal methods of the criminals and help the police solve the case smoothly.
One day, Kaoru Uchiha received another bizarre murder case. The little boy Zhongguang claimed that he had seen the suspect's car out of his soul, and if what Zhongguang said was true, the suspect's suspicion could be cleared, but how could the police take the out-of-body experience as evidence? Could it be that Zhongguang is lying?
Kaoru Uchiha naturally found her "bright light" again, Yukawa Gaku. Yukawa-gaku, after on-site evidence collection, proved that Tadahiro did see the suspect's car, thus clearing the suspect's suspicions, and at the same time piercing the so-called "out-of-body experience", and finally the truth came out.
Sinister and intractable cases continue to occur, and Yukawa Gaku has also shown the power of wisdom again and again in this bizarre and strange puzzle.
My comment: This drama has a lot of personality and characteristics, and in many detective dramas, it is impressive. Masaharu Fukuyama's appearance and acting skills are OK, and Shibasaki's heroine here is relatively less brilliant, and he feels that the style is still on the male protagonist.
Each case is still quite attractive, and there is not much dog blood and loopholes. The seemingly innocent emotional line between the male and female protagonists is also something to look forward to.
(10) Light of Fireflies (2007)
Director: Yoshino Hiroshi / Nanun Seiichi / Shigeyama Yoshinori
Writers: Fumie Mizuhashi / Shuraku Sand Heron
Starring: Ryoyao Maki / Naoto Fujiki / Kazunori Kato / Takeda Shinji
Workplace white-collar Yumiya Hotaru (Ayaseはるか) is actually a full-fledged otaku! At a young age, when he is idle, he only likes to "leisurely" nestle at home, eat, drink, sleep and sleep, do not go out, have no communication, and do not fall in love. Compared with the glorious image at work, the gap is not only tens of millions!
One day, the family is greeted by the boss of the company: Minister Takano (Naoto Fujiki), who turns out to be the real owner of the house, and who recently moved back to live with his wife due to divorce.
At first, Takano was horrified by the "true face" of the otaku, And then felt that he could "not see her as a woman" and began to live under the same roof.
Unexpectedly, the minister gradually found that he had a good feeling for the confused and sloppy Little Firefly, and the little Firefly who realized it in hindsight not only did not realize it, but also poured out his crush on the Minister... However, when she really falls in love with the dreamer Shimashima (Kato and Kiki), she finds that the other party does not seem to be the right person. A quiet love triangle is about to officially begin!
My comment: The finale must be given to "Firelight", the minister of little uncle Naoto Fujiki, it is really a circle of fans. The heroine Ayase Haruka's image of an otaku is also really close to life. Simple workplace coupled with natural and comfortable love, this drama is actually not complicated plot, but the emotional development of the male and female protagonists is particularly exciting.
This drama has also made a sequel, but the sequel may be too much expectation, and it always feels inferior to this one.
Ten inventory is completed, and finally an Easter egg is placed. The reason why this inventory spans twelve years is because the recommended Easter egg drama year is 2019. Therefore, the year span is twelve years from 2007 to 2019.
Why recommend an Easter egg, the reason is that I have not seen this drama, and the Douban score is not too high, but just by looking at the name and starring role, I think it is very worth recommending, especially recommended to professionals.
painted eggshell:
Me, To The Point off work (2019)
Director: Fumiki Kaneko / Kentaro Takemura
编剧: Sadoko Okudera / Yukako Shimizu
Starring: Yuriko Yoshitaka / Osamu Mukai / Yuichi Nakamaru / Takeo Patternmoto / Yuki Izumi
Douban score: 7.8
The drama is adapted from the novel of the same name by Keiko Chuno, in which Yoshitaka plays the 32-year-old single WEB director Yui Higashiyama who works for a WEB production company, who grew up watching her father, a workaholic who does not return home, until she enters a tattered company after graduation.
The drama takes the "overtime problem" of many companies to cut into the point of view, re-examining the concept of marriage, black-hearted enterprises, loneliness and death and other matters of vital interests. In addition, the co-actors include Yui Ri as Yuki Yukihara's fiancé, Yuki Uchida, a senior who returned to the workplace immediately after giving birth to a child, and Yusuke Nakayama, who played the black-hearted boss.
My comments: How, is it worth recommending by looking at the name. Starring Gigaku Yuriko has acted in more than one workplace drama, acting skills are very good, playing what fire, postpartum return are not reduced.
