My Favorite Japanese Dorama =D

In the middle of the crowds especially young girls that scream "GO KOREAN!!!" I mean all about both countries, North or South, musics, dramas, actors, actress, singers, boysbands, girlsbands, hairstyle, fashions, makeups, and every other things that I maybe slip to mention, I'm still here in my spot and scream "ALL HAIL JAPAN!!" LOL..

I mean I'm still in love with every thing about Japan, especially their makeups, style and doramas.

Recently, after I changed my internet connection, I suddenly remember about my all time favorite dorama, PRIDE.

This dorama starred by my favorite Japanese actor Takuya Kimura and Yuko Takeuchi. Well, actually KimuTaku that made me interested to watch this dorama for the first time. I don't even know what the story about that time, all I knew that it's one of KimuTaku dorama!! XD
I watched this firstly in 2005 when one of my bestfriend's sister went back from Malaysia and bought the videos there.


The story is about Halu Satonaka (Takuya) a famous hockey team captain and Aki Murase (Yuko) an ordinary office lady. They first met when Aki is asked by her bestfriends to watch a game of Halu's team which sponsored by the company where they work.


That was Aki's first game time, she didn't even know what's the game about, but when she saw the players in the ice rink, one person glows more than other, and that is Halu.


At the after game party, Halu first saw Aki, glowing among every other girls in the pub, so Halu rushed in and ask her for her email. That's how they officially met.


And after that they knew, Halu is a very serious about hockey and his career so he can't have anything to distract him, and Aki, not as common as she looks, is waiting for her boyfriend who's study abroad, without any news or everything about when he would be return, all her boyfriend asked is wait for him every Sunday afternoon on a bridge that designed by him because Aki's boyfriend is an architect. Aki has waiting for him for 2 years.


Based on that condition, they made a deal, to have a game relationship, so whenever the boyfriend back, they can easily end the game and say "Bye bye.." But, eventually, not everything goes as smooth as their plan and problems seem to appear as their feeling grow fonder, Halu's team and teammates, and also not forget to mention, Aki's boyfriend.


This is a story about pride, love, friendship and family that can bring my tears down. I still cry like baby whenever I watch this. And unlike Indonesian dramas a.k.a sinetron, they don't have a very long episodes, just enough so we can still enjoy it and don't get bored and irritated.. LOL


As usual, like in every other of his dorama, KimuTaku is very cool here, OMG, he made me forget about my fiance for a while. Don't forget about his acting, the way he plays hockey, just like a professional athlete, and he's even cooler in his Halu Satonaka's hockey uniform.. XD

But you may wondering, why I'm mentioning this dorama now, even though I've watched it in 2005? Well, it's because I just find it again, I've searched for it over and over, in almost every video stores in my city, I even asked my friend to look for it in Jakarta with zero result. So when finally I change my internet connection and found the download links here, I'm so excited and I watched it over and over again, I even drag my fiance to watch it, and even he, the one who never likes drama said it's good and worth your time.

And one of my favorite scenes :

Well, that's what's buzzing in my mind right now, if you want, you can also feel what I feel about this dorama (I hope) and you can download the complete episodes above.. =D
