/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Anyone else watching "Naotora: Lady Warlord"? I was really enjoying it in the beginning when they were little kids but haven't enjoyed it so much since the timeskip.

There was too much focus on the awful Naochika/Naotora romance. Naochika wasn't even a great character. And when that's finally over they turn the most likeable character, who they constantly have had suffering, into the villain for some reason. That just made caring for Naotora even more annoying now that she's actually doing shit. At least it seems like he's going back to his old more sympathetic self next episode (15).

Anyone ever watch variety shows?
They usually have celebs or comedians on to partake in quizzes or games. Never found out why and never figured out names of such shows. Used to catch them when flipping through channels when I was in Japan, but can't do that anymore unless there are streams up somewhere for filthy gaijin.

>>17088631
Do idols variety shows count? If so, then I do.

>>17088658
I guess idols got big enough that they could have shows dedicated to bullying whole groups instead of inviting a few of them onto a show along with a bunch of other guests. Those are popular enough to have downloads available pretty quickly right?

If I can't stumble on shows from channel flipping, maybe I should develop some fandom toward someone and figure out when they're scheduled for guest appearances.

>>17088709
Considering AKBingo being more well known overseas than AKB48 itself and them being one of the most if not the most well known female idol group in Japan, says something.

Not related to variety shows: I really liked "Tonbi" (2013 version). Anyone has something similar to recommend?

some neet recs pls

Saw a webm a while ago, and I don't know if I saved it, but it was of this Japanese guy with a shotgun, the double-barreled kind, shooting a bunch of kids in a school. Think it was at night, and the webm largely consisted of them cowering at the top of a stairwell while he shot them.
It was pretty edgy, but it piqued my interest. Ring any bells?

>>17086282

Recently watched Nobuta wa Produce. Found it to be comfy and somewhat realistic portrayal of friendship/relationships. 8.5/10

>>17090738

>>17091595
Nice, will watch it for Toda

Now you've got me excited

>>17090625
The movie is a different story. I only watch it for Yamada to be honest.

>>17091362
Serious question, because I still don't get it: What's the problem with streaming? I personally prefer it because I don't have to bother with managing disk space and I mostly watch on mobile.

>>17092527
Maybe because the quality's shite

>>17086282
Put this in OP next time https://pastebin.com/YtK9gFDb

>>17092214
I haven't read the manga

Is TV show or movie better?

>>17093910
What do you mean by that? Usually shows are in 720p or 1080p, and the quality of subs is usually simmilar to those I had when I'm not streaming (which is unsurprising, considering they are taken from them).

>>17086282
Currently watching pic related

Currently waiting for Wanitokagegisu which is a true life story of a jpsie.

Horror movies.

Anyone have any recommendations besides the big classics.

Feel like I've seen the best Japan have to offer, but there might be some hidden gems out there.

>you will never marry gaki and have kinds of crazy and hilarious hijinks with her

Any suggestions on movies like long wolf +cub or 14 assasins?

>>17090661

>>17104474
The lone wolf and cub movies were pretty awesome actually, there's a formula though, I tired of it after the third I think

Anyone know another site?

Wait, is there a 14 assassins? Or is that a typo?

Recently finished yuush yoshihiko s1 to 3. Solid show though I wont recommend it to people who have little knowledge of Japanese pop culture because it has a lot of references not just from anime. It's also fun to see my favorite actors as guests. 8/10.

What the fuck happened to the live action Saki? did it just stop when nyaa went down or what

>>17121441
It's only 4 episodes

>>17121490
oh i see

>>17110969
Did you watch raw? I was using Over-Time's subs but it looks like they stopped early into s3.

>>17124227
Just streamed it through kissasian. It's just 30 mins per episode so didn't bother getting copies

watch kekkon dekinai otoko if you haven't

FYI, Avistaz will be open for registration on June 4th. Great source for Japanese movies.

>>17125897
Yeah, no. They barely have anything. You're better off finding chink and gook sources.

I started it because of that post. I didn't think I would like it based on the first episode, but it started to get pretty damn funny (to me), and now I'm glad I picked it up

>>17144931

Anyone has any dramas about grappling combat sports (judo, wrestling etc.) to reccomend? I've seen Ippon Kids but it was rather disappointing.

This is a really retarded thing to ask and shows how little Japanese I know, but how do you write "cutest actresses" , "cute actresses" , and "cute idols" in kanji? I want to search google for good drawing references, but I want to make sure I enter those right.

>>17148943
中出しの喜び

>>17148975
Haha very funny

>>17148943
I'm just a beginner in japanese so i can't help with "cutest", but:
Cute: 可愛い (i rarely see it in kanji tough, more often in kana : かわいい)
Actress: 女優
Idol: アイドル
To sum it:
Cute actress: 可愛い女優
Cute idol: 可愛いアイドル

i'd rather watch the daily morning news

every weekday around midnight they have a short of a girl running up a hill. i don't get it.

>>17151193
and its not always a girl with big boobs.

>>17151193
Are you a homosexual or something?

Watched Nobunaga Concerto last month.
Now I want more period piece dramas.
Watched the first episode of Sanada Maru but haven't decided to pick it up yet.

Who are Japan's currently most popular actors(male/female)? I want to watch some of their shows.

Any recommendations set in the Taisho era?

>>17109432
>avistaz
Ratio scam. If you download anything there that's not on nyaa, please up it to nyaa.

>>17155937
As someone who really enjoyed Nobunaga Concerto, I say pick up Sanada Maru. I really loved that series. It's a good ride.

>>17159245
>website's a scam, but can you still use it and reupload stuff to a public tracker for me?
lol fuck off. Their AoZ encodes suck anyways.

>>17151193

It's probably a japanese meme. I know an idol who goes to different locations to run up a hill.

Yes

>>17162536
>for me.
I've got an account there. If you don't like sharing then don't. But nobody should have to deal with their inane ratio demands.

>>17092527
You're giving money to the triads and shit. If you're gonna pirate shit, at least make sure no one's earning a living off of someone's else work.

Unless we're talking about legal streaming. That's a bit of a different story. It's just fags being edgy. Also, Crunchyroll started replacing older episodes with copies at a lower bitrate. It's unnoticeable on most shows unless they have a ton of certain shades of black like old scifi anime from the '80s.

Caught this on TV durning my latest trip to Tokyo. There is something really relaxing watching pretty girls bowl. It's all on YouTube by the way.

I know /m/ is the main board to talk about this, but how do you people feel about Kamen Rider and Super Sentai?

>>17169650
Not my cup of tea but interesting

>>17169650
Nostalgic. I grew up with that and Anime.

>>17169898
>>17170603
Nice. I think the current series, Ex-Aid, has been the best the series has been in years. It's a very nice breath of fresh air for the franchise.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPDLldbv0zw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxWDS7JfXHU

>>17171163
I wholly disagree with you, I feel as though Ex-Aid removes everything that makes Rider good - the side characters, the world building, comedy, and throws it all out of the window for a poorly written rushed main plot by a writer who clearly *can't* handle it all by himself, with cheap bad action sequences filled on go-pros which ruins the cinematic and professional look the show had been building up between Wizard and including Drive. There's melodrama galore, every single character is related to another in some plot specific way... it's a fucking car crash of a show.

If you mean "the best the series has been since last year", then you might be right. Maybe compared to Ghost Ex-Aid might be a fine show, sure, but compared to Drive, Gaim, Fourze, OOO and W it's absolutely dogshit. Not even going to compare it to Kuuga or any of the early Heisei series.

>>17171163
>>17171208
You're making me feel old. Black is technically Shouwa but that's still what comes to mind when someone mentions masked rider to me. The only one I recognize from there is Fourze and that's only because of my nephews. Does Kamen Teacher count? That's the last one I've actually watched.

>>17171234
>Does Kamen Teacher count?
No.

>>17171186
Ive watched this before. It was fun but ending was awful. "As the gods will" is also similar to this

>>17171163
I feel the same way. The suits took getting used to, but the story is pretty good and I like most of the characters. The only real weak point I can see is Emu, he's just not a very interesting protagonist. Generic "I will fight for everyone's smiles" hero but kind of a wimp.
>>17171208
I don't see why you have an issue with the gopro shots, they bring out some interesting angles like the rocket punch camera in Gekitotsu Robot's debut episode. I also don't see why every character having some kind of relation is a bad thing either, it keeps the cast at a reasonable size and allows them all to play off each other better. I can agree that it's not as good as W/OOO/Fourze, most early Heisei and Drive, but it definitely is better than Gaim I feel.

>>17162067
Will do.

Season 3 coming soon~

>>17174271
There are so many medical and cop dramas that I just tend to avoid them all. Mostly cause I don't liek American versions of those shows and if there's so many I fear they won't be very good in japan either. Am I missing out on anything particularly good?

>>17174398
Just find a drama with actors you like and see if you like the format.

Any links to love game? It's impossible to find

>That ending

>>17175908
What show?

I really really want to try acting in Japan. In tv shows or movies.

I can pronounce Japanese pretty good B+
but my Japanese isn't so good. Just very basic, but making progress.
I know a couple of foreign actors in Japan who were able to achieve their career when they still had their tourist visa.

I kinda want to act in teen dramas. I'm 23 but I still look like as if I were 17, And there are a lot of actors in their early 20s who act like they were younger. It makes me think that it strengthens my chances a tiny bit.
I plan to move to Japan in August, and try to attend auditions when I get there. I have good acting skills aswell.

In my personal opinion, I'd say I have about 10 to 23% success rate. I would most likely have higher chances if I spoke N2 or N1 Japanese, But I will probably become a full adult until then and will probably be too old to star as a young character. But I still want to give it a go.
If not then I can probably make a fool of myself and play in commercials.
Just sharing my ambitions...

Do documentaries and news segments ever get subbed?

>>17191015
Barely anything gets subbed, I don't know why you'd think documentaries or news would.

Learn Japanese already.

>>17171208
You can't be serious, Ex-Aid has one of the most likeable casts in any Rider, great use video game tropes and a coherent theme, something we don't have since Gaim/W.

I also think Wizard and Drive action was better, but just like Ex-Aid, they too were going for the whole ''spaming the new power up while a bunch of FX's play in the background'' thing.

If anything, the show can be enjoyed just for Kuroto, one of the most entertaining Rider in a long time.

Season 6 yo!

This is very old, but check out Rainbow Kids

Does anyone have the Blu-Ray RAW or ISOs of Orange Days? I really want to make a better release but don't have access to u2 or other trackers.

If someone could even just check if they are available on there that would be great.

Recs for any good detective/crime dramas? it's been a while since i've watched anything.

They are doing a sequel for border.

Decided to buy them, going to try to make my own BD encode after I finish fixing the subtitles.

Look forward to it, no idea when it will be finished. Upload will be on AvistiaZ then Nyaa.si once I finish seeding.

Debating if the subs should be external so it's easier to update them without making patches.

What are the best sources for Japanese tv. Any torrent sites that specialize in Japanese media other than anime and dramas?

>>17219261
There aren't any. The best you can find is stuff from a few months back in poor quality on chink streaming sites.

You want to watch something from 20 years ago? Unless it's being re-run, you're never going to see it. There's no good source of any of this stuff, because nips don't seem to care about preservation, and even if they did, we're talking an obscene amount of programming to save.

>>17210905
Gotta love sion sono.

>be braindead german weebs

I explicitly avoid watching YOUは to avoid this level of cringe.

>>17219261
>>17221084
Well there are a lot of shows with idols in them that are saved. If you are interested you can search on aidoru-online for example.

Any recs for the currently airing j-dorama? (possibly w/ sub)

Currently watching boku no unmei (and nothing else), and totally like it.

>>17219261
I recently found a site/app that streams Tokyo MX but you need a VPN to Japan to watch anything.

>>17221084
>Old series
At that point you're going to have to buy a release off rakuten or dmm.
There used to be a Japanese-made p2p program for sharing files, but I've long since forgotten the name and never figured out how to use it since it was before I could into Japanese. Even then, if it was still even working, no idea how you'd find the one random Japanese guy with the ancient series you're looking for.

Finally got around to watching
I cant be the only one who noticed this right?

>>17224284
Not sure about subs but you can try Reverse. Based on mystery novel of the same name by Kanae Minato(N no tame ni, confession etc). Her works usually get adapted to media.

If I want start watching jap dorama, where can I start? Can someone advise something?

>>17227938
Its similar to anime (a lot of times it is adapted from manga) so you have to pick a genre you are fond of and find something there
Someone was talking about gakusen either in this thread or the previous one and its really nice, it's subbed on youtube

東京タラレバ娘

What do you even like? School, workplace, hospital, crime, comedy, isekai drama?

>>17228040
Please tell me some site where you can find all this with tags or something similar.

>>17227938
Really depends on what genre you like. Some just watched shows of the actors they like.
But more importantly most dramas don't get sub or takes ages to for it to get sub. So it's really best if you know the language.

Are there any dramas with a similar feel to IWGP? I've bounced off of everything else I've watched but IWGP was fucking solid gold, and somehow felt less 'artificial' than other jdramas feel to me.

>>17228464
>IWGP

>>17219261
Chinese sites like Miomio tv will have nearly everything boardcasted currently and a few years back. The quality ranges from near HD to SD. Ripping from the site can sometime be a hassle. Not sure if they have something set up to throttle you when downloading or just China being shitty China stingy thieves.
Chinese sites like Tudou and Youku use to host older series in full but I think Japanese companies started to come down on them and they removed them.
As someone mentioned you'd be better off buying older stuff.

If you want new variety shows, there's a dude on the gakitsuka forums uploading 720/1080p rips of all current downtown shows, london hearts, ametalk, mechaike, why did you come to japan, etc. You need to logged in to get the encryption keys to mega links, though.
This is the only source I've found that's not shitty chink streams ever since d-addicts died.

Kisarazu Cat's Eye

what's your favorite Kitano?
Whether director, actor or both

>>17227938
Pick a genre you think you might enjoy.
Judge the show by it's cover. When I started stuff that looked interesting from a glance turned out to be right up my alley.
Give it time. Episodic dramas can be a bit slow or try to throw the viewer off. One example is you think X and Y might get together but then X falls in love with Z mid-series only for X to realize they love Y more. Also if you're the type to drop a show for superficial reason you're not gonna enjoy dramas too much.

Getting into the Taiga series and enjoying it greatly so far, not counting the fact that it's a real pain to find anything. Got the whole Takeda Shingen in glorious quality, but when I wanted to get some more about sengoku my searches were pretty fruitless.

Anyone got a place with a couple more of these? I really want to watch the Nobunaga and Tokugawa series, but can't find any working sources.

Could someone please point me in the direction of downloads for the movie Detroit Metal City (2008) and the new Boku wa Mari no Naka tv show? Can't find either anywhere.

Don't worry I'm making good progress. Subtitles are about 6/11 done and I'm encoding episode 7 right now.

I'm no expert on encoding so apart from deinterlacing with avisynth I didn't really run it through a ton of filters.

I would really appreciate it if someone would be willing to help me fix the translations, my Japanese isn't that great so I'm just fixing the bad translation where it's obvious however I keep finding lines which I know are incorrect but can't fix.

If you're interested you can message me on AvistiaZ under Rainie or let me know on here how to contact you. I can also upload episode 1 somewhere if you want to help work on it. If there is any filter suggestions for me to use on the encodes I can do that as well. My computer is quite fast so it's not an issue.

>>17269356
That's Orange not Orange Days, regardless it doesn't matter I bought them already.

>>17320329
this looks really melodramatic for a family show

>>17323003
You don't need to have subtitles done to upload on avistaz, raws are fine. You can add the timed subs later.

Where is this bad translation from? why not just go with d-addicts? http://www.d-addicts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=129663

>>17323476
>You can add the timed subs later.
And you don't even need to do this, strictly speaking. You can add untimed subs and let people resync it themselves.

>>17312537
The site is decent. Not on the level of some really good private trackers, but their selection of stuff from Glorious Nippon is much better than public trackers or entry-level normie trackers, at least.

I recommend having an account.

>>17323461
It's a remake of a korean drama. MC dies at the end.

>>17166353
Newfag here, where can I pirate this shit from?

>>17323476
I am indeed using those subs, the timing isn't perfect and the translation is very poor at times. It's taking a lot of time to make it some-what bearable.
>>17323480
Of course I already know that you can release on AvistiaZ but I have decided to release everything at once I don't really see any point in waiting 2 days then uploading the subs separately

As you can see I decided to add translations and karaoke effects for the ending song. The fonts are going to change on release. I gave up on doing pretty karaoke with aegisub it's incredibly difficult to do things you might see some anime groups do.

>>17324328
release on AvistiaZ without subtitles**

>>17324173
yeah i watched misa a decade ago, it was pretty good for its time, a bit too makjang by todays standards

>>17324328
impressive. dunno if it helps but there are also jp transcriptions on d-addicts you can use

The Blu-Rays came with Japanese soft PGS subtitles and I found lyrics online. Thanks anyway, here's a rare Sae.

>get direct TV back in 2001
>see that they have NHK on the grid
>pay an extra fee to get it
>it's NHK straight from Japan
>it was around 3PM in my country, and 3AM in Japan
>the very first thing I see when I tune it in is some erotic drama with nudes set in feudal Japan
The guy from DirecTV who was installing the thing and I were both very clueless and curious.
I watched 9/11 live from NHK news.
I also remember the ping-pong tournaments.

>>17324941
will you up the jp pgs too pls?

>>17324984
They will be included in the release, can't see any reason not to include them. If you want I can upload them separately now but I doubt that's what you're after.

Are there any Japanese shows that are like Korean reality show Return Of Superman?

>>17324994
will you leave them as PGS or OCR them into SRT/ASS? I don't mind either way since I would just do the latter myself in SubtitleEdit. But what I really want is the timing for the BDs. The D-addicts subs are synced to DVDs (?) and there's no doubt differences in timing bc of menus and whatnot.

>>17300554
I'm glad we agree.

>>17326961
Actually the DVD subs perfectly match up with the BDs they didnt even have a menu on them. This project was me originally re-timing/fixing the subs for the HDTV release and i got to 6/11 but now that I decided I want to do the BDs I am re-timing the episodes back to their original DVD timing.

With the episodes I didn't re-time for HDTV they are already frame-perfect timing with the DVDs, only off by 1 frame in some spots due to interlacing.

>>17324984
>>17326961
On second thought, those jp subs you linked were missing lines due to not having the deleted scenes so the timing is off.

Since you're going to OCR them anyway could you do it now? It would help me a lot with fixing the translations If I could copy/paste the moon runes. And I would be able to include the srt/ass file in the final release rather than the PGS subtitles.

Hopefully you can open Rar files, I managed to compress it from 800mb down to 37mb. https://my.mixtape.moe/ybwvjo.rar

Anyone know where I could find Ryōmaden with subtitles? I'm Scottish and was reading about some of my history and how Kaichi Watanabe was a japanese engineer who helped pioneer the cantilever principle for suspension bridge design (forth road bridge) which lead to reading about how Japanese during the period were smuggled into Scotland to learn ship design and engineering by Thomas Blake Glover.

Thomas Blake Glover was a Scottish rogue trader who supplied the Satsuma and Choshu region with weapons against the British treaties so they could overthrow the shogunate and then went onto forming Mitsubishi, building the first imperial warship, trade relations and such. As such, I found that this drama series covers this period of history since one of the characters (Iwasaki Yatarō) is the president of Mitsubishi but can't find it anywhere.

I heard that there is a Japanese DVD region that has English subtitles on them. Is this true?

>>17349459
what show

>>17349469
Bokutachi ga yarimashita. New summer drama.

Just finished Watashi wo Hanasanaide. Recommend me another super depressing jdrama. Also Ayase Haruka is cute as HECK.

>>17326205
Japanese celebrities are a lot more private with their personal lives. Considering their industries work on a weird organized and legalized slave system know as talent agencies. The bigger the name the more they get death threats, stalkers, envelopes full of cum. So they wouldn't want their children exposed to the masses via a "reality" show.

Currently watching yowamushi pedal live action. Show is well made and mc is endearing. Would recommend.

>>17326205
Return of Superman works because the celebrities are older, and already have established lives. They don't have to worry about tabloid nonsense usually once they're married with kids (you don't publicly talk smack about a married family man in Korea). A lot of these guys are using the show to stay relevant in the hyper-competitive Korean entertainment industry.

In Japan, big name celebrities tend to pull back from the public eye once they're married with kids. They don't have the same kind of swim-or-sink competition that is seen in Korean entertainment, so shows like that wouldn't have much appeal to them.

Reality television is also only just now gaining traction in Asia. Even then it's usually variety-reality.

>>17349617
does it do justice to the novel?

>>17351693
I never read the novel so I'm not familiar with the source material. I watched it because I wanted a tear jerker with ayase haruka and it delivered. It was pretty infuriating on how everybody just went along with the donations though.

your lie in april

>>17351732
>I wanted a tear jerker with ayase haruka
byakuyakou. old school melodrama, almost like its korean

>>17352083
the movie actually sucked compared to the anime. I had the same feelings with the orange movie adaptation as well. I don't think I enjoyed any movie adaptation of shoujo stuff.

>>17352288
I've already seen it along with Sekai no Chuushin de, Ai wo Sakebu in the past. I watched the Seirei No Moribito live actions and was surprised that Ayase Haruka was the lead so I decided to see what else shes done.

>>17264241
If you do happen to find a source to watch the Taiga series might I recommend checking out Ryōmaden. One of my favorite Taiga drama based on the historical figure Ryoma Sakamoto. Really entertaining series for me.

>>17351693
More or less same as novel but has a different ending. Novel is still the best source.

>>17353844
Can I ger a name for this drama? I recognise the yankee looking guy. I've seen the trailer for this but don't know the name. It looked pretty interesting and the main character is the guy that played Kira in the death note live action, who I thought was a pretty good actor.

>>17354346
See
>>17349562

Yankee looking guy is Sonny Chiba's son. Drama is a manga adaption, got quite a few of those this season.

>one piece will have a live action adaptation
Who should play nami/robin?

>>17354405
It's by hollywood so its going to be a black girl.

>>17354976
>Japanese Movie and TV Thread
>Japanese

>>17354405
I see. It also stars Mei Nagano and I quite enjoy her acting as well. Adaptations like this are why I vastly enjoy Japanese dramas. So much varieties of stories compared to the Korean melodrama they have going on over there.

"The manga centers on a group of friends who are satisfied and complacent with their everyday lives. The friends include Tobio, a passive high schooler who makes it a rule not to hope too much; Maru, a scheming boy who gossips behind people's back; Isami, a gaudy student who likes girls and recently got a girlfriend with big breasts; and their senior Paisen (slang for senpai, or upperclassman), a 20-year old man who is rich and has long graduated from high school."

sounds kinda boring tbf

>>17357334
You'll probably shouldn't rely on synopsis especially those in english.
They left out how the mc fucked up, blow up the school by accident causing injuries and deaths.

>>17358273
Also going by the trailer he cucks the shit out of the Yankee guy and steals his girl? At least that's what it seems like to me, does that happen in the manga?

what are some Japanese movies that will definitely make me laugh?
I watched the turtles are surprisingly fast movie and it was cute but a little slow
I've also seen survive style 5 and yakuza apocalypse

>>17360563

Who knows. You could try Symbol or R100 though.

While I think that emu is friggin annoying and some of the writing is really shoddy, kuroto and a few other characters really carry the show. I started out not liking ex-aid, but I ended up getting really involved with it. Its no gaim or drive, but its damn entertaining and that's good enough for me. Amazons season 2 was an amazing ride too.
Kamen rider has been good as of late I think.

>>17369021
>>17369021
Say what you will about ex-aid, at least its better than ghost. Ghost had a pretty good opening into a shitty lacklustre ending. It was nothing. The only thing that kept me interested was Alan's story and his character development. Shit mc, annoying supporting characters like that monk and an even more shitty villain. Waste of my damn time.

Is there a torrent with a HQ version of Adrift in Tokyo? Bay of Corsairs only has 700mb version.

is anyone watching ごめん、愛してる ? is it any good?

>>17374276
apart from not having yuki no hana as the theme song

>>17369823
EX-Aid has a shitty episode structure and direction, but it was very well written in the last of part of Kuroto arc and the build up to Kamen Rider Chronicle, easily the best written Kamen Rider been since Gaim.

What are your favorite drama of the last few years? Been out of the loop

this is my actressfu
i could watch the worst of her shows and movies just because she's in them

>>17385522
nice edgelord subs.

Which Taiga dramas are worth watching? So far I have seen Atsuhime and Sanada Maru and I enjoyed them both.

I'm following Naotora at the moment but would like something else to watch as well.

GOKUSEN THE MOVIE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2CkwxFpcT0

>>17385522
Is this any good though? It's really low rated everywhere but being written and directed by Yuichi Fukuda makes me curious.

>>17387680
Watched it a while ago. Good enough. Fun to see a lot of past and present actors reprising roles.

>>17324173
That is original in Korea.

>>17388536

it's watchable and funny at times but i wouldn't say it's good. I watched it when my internet was out and nothing to do

Anyone know where I can find the Boys on the Run TV show?

>>17392633
What show is this from?

What do you guys think about honorifics in your subtitles?

Is Terrace House Aloha State any good? I really like the group's interaction with each other from the previous show.

Looking for some opinions on this show if anybody has seen it already. I don't want to waste my time if isn't a good recommendation.

>>17399162
I've seen it, till pt3, I dont like it as much as bxgitc its a lot more americanized and I feel it has a bit more shilling of the member's businesses like the whole ila swim thing and the cafe that guy opened in pt1, it was prevalent in the jap version too but not as much. But I mean its still watchable, it doesnt turn into something like jersey shore just because it's in hawaii, its still very much autistic half japs doing not much at all
