花盛りの君たちへHanazakari no kimitachi e


The drama that I'm most looking forward to this summer is probably 'Hanazakari no kimitachi e'. I even tried recording the first episode using my hand phone, but Lady Luck sure ain't by my side that day because halfway through, my hand phone's battery gave up, but whatever. Can download through d-addicts ;-)

Anyway, here's a brief synopsis thanks to dramawiki:

The drama is based on the popular manga of the same name by Nakajo Hisaya, which has already been dramatized in Taiwan. Horikita plays the protagonist Ashiya Mizuki, a Japanese girl in the U.S. who one day sees the young athlete Sano Izumi (Oguri) compete in the high jump on television. She begins to idolize him, and decides to move to Japan to attend the same school as him. However, Izumi goes to an all-boys school, so Mizuki disguises herself as a boy to achieve her dream of being with her idol.

And here's a flow chart of the drama:

To all of you who looked carefully at the pictures I uploaded of the drama, you'll probably realize the reason I'm so nuts about this drama. The main actor is OGURI SHUNN.... !!!!!! In case you guys don't know about this yet, I'm this really big fan of him, ever since I watched the drama Hana Yori Dango last year. I even named the blog after him, you know!

I'm drooling already. LOL...
One more thing I realize is that they always omit the picture of those pretty boys from Johnny's Entertainment. Like for instance, in this drama, the picture of Ikuta Toma isn't there, albeit the fact that he is one of the main characters in the drama. For those who want to know how he looks like, click here.

I watched the first episode last Tuesday (This drama airs at 9 pm every Tuesday night. Its on Fuji Television - Channel 8) and surprisingly, I find this drama a lot better than Proposal Daisakusen. Well, this may be due to all those eye candies on screen, but never mind that. A surprisingly funny drama with all the kind of attractions that teenagers will surely love. Seeing all those pretty boys makes me wonder... Are all of them from Johnny's Entertainment?

Anyway, for all of you who have not watched this drama yet, I suggest you start this coming Tuesday! And for those who aren't in Japan, I suggest you start downloading the first episode!

P/S: I was looking at the episode ratings for all the summer dramas, TBS and Fuji Television ones, and 'Hanazakari no kimitachi e' boosts the highest ratings for the first week if compared to the other 2007 summer dramas. Yeah~~:-) What am I thinking? I keep asking myself this question nowadays. Why am I going back to Malaysia this summer? What with all this dramas in store for me!!! But trust me when I say that next summer I sure ain't going back. I'm going to sit tight and watch dramas throughout my summer holiday next time ^o^
